January 2013 - My first attempt at a gradient design. I first painted the blue on all of my nails and left it to dry. Next I painted a sponge half blue, half purple and dabbed it onto my nails.
It's not a bad attempt! Although I did have to pick bits of sponge off my nails.
December 2013 - Painted these for new year (original new year manicure didn't last!) Barry M blue with a marine coloured caviar accent nail.
This is the first time I've used anything like caviar beads on my nails, I hope they last the evening!
December 2013 - Another textured polish (do you see a theme recurring?) This time by barry m, I think it's called tnp8 - white pearl.
The colour reminded me of snow so I have painted a snowy accent nail!
November 2013 - So for my birthday I received a voucher for a nail bar, on a whim I decided to get acrylic nails. Worst. Decision. Ever! Although they looked lovely, my fingers were so sore afterwards; they felt so strange! I had them on a little over a week when i decided i needed to take them off.
Getting them off was a nightmare in itself, it took over 3 hours of dissolving them in acetone and scraping them off with an orange stick before filing the plastic off (process shown in pictures)
Never again!
