HyperGel Pinstripe Nails.





My sister asked me to paint my nails in the HyperGel Turquoise Gloss so she could take some photo's for her blog. So I put Breaking Bad on and after two episodes I had finished this pinstripe look. 
So simple and such an easy look to do. After painting my nails in the HyperGel polish, I applied the stripes with the Models Own White Nail Art Pen. On the one nail I just added a top coat of the Topshop Epiphany, then finished with a clear top coat.

The luck of the Irish. St Patrick's Day Nails.




This called for a nail design of course and at a great time because I'm loving green at the moment. It's weird to think that the original colour associated with St Patrick's day was blue, right? But here we are, in Celebration of Saint Patrick wearing green.

Using - Models Own Black & White nail art pens, Barry M - Green Berry, Spring Green, White and Gold Foil, Model's Own - Dancing Queen and 2 various Color Club polishes.

Starting with the little finger, I applied the Green Berry. Once dry I used a dotting tool to apply Spring Green and Gold Foil. The ring finger I applied white and then added a clover. Using a Color Club polish on the middle finger, once dry I used an art pen to create the black thick line and then added the buckle with the Gold Foil polish using a nail art brush. The index finger was easy peasy, painted the nail white, then once dry added the Models Own Dancing Queen over the top. Now the thumb, I'm not too happy with, I used a Color Club polish, then once dry drew on the white and black lines using the Models Own nail art pens.
I know not the best designs, but worth a try :)

Nail Polish Challenge. Weekend one - Favourite Nail Polish.

Hey!
So there's 32 weekends left of this year (including this weekend), can you believe that!!
I was going to do a challenge that I've seen a few bloggers starting lately, just to use polishes that they don't usually jump straight to and wear often. I Googled 'Nail polish challenge' and saw a few on the Images page of Google, so I thought I'd give one of these a go. The challenge is a 30 day challenge but I'll be doing it every weekend instead as I'm a little busy in the week. 

I used to always have my nails painted but I've slacked so much doing them the past couple of months. Now, I shall be doing my nails every weekend, using a different polish each time and using some up which I wouldn't usually wear.




No doubt I'll buy more nail polishes before the end of the year, so every one I pick for the questions asked may change but that's life haha.

So the different titles for each weekend shall be...
1. Your favourite polish.
2. Your least favourite polish.
3. A polish that reminds you of happy things.
4. A polish that is 'so you'.
5. A polish that reminds you of a special day.
6. A polish you have never worn.
7. Most worn polish.
8. A polish that was a gift.
9. A polish that you used to hate, but now love.
10. A polish that you think is boring.
11. A polish from your favourite brand.
12. A polish from your least favourite brand.
13. Favourite blue polish.
14. A cheap polish.
15. A polish that has a name that describes my mood today.
16. A polish that you used to love, that now hate. 
17. A polish you think is overrated. 
18. A polish to wear at your wedding.
19. A polish that is easy to apply.
20. Favourite glitter polish.
21. Favourite pastel polish.
22. A polish that is hard to apply.
23. A sexy polish.
24. A new polish.
25. A polish that you don't think you can pull off.
26. A polish to match today's outfit.
27. Most unique polish you own.
28. Favourite pink polish.
29. Polish to match today's weather.
30. Your favourite polish - now!

Weekend one
My Favourite Nail Polish


My favourite polish has to be W7 - Green Envy. I absolutely love it, love the colour and the polish itself is so easy to apply. Two coats is enough, it doesn't chip easily and it comes off easy. All round great...
The picture for this is a little bit cheating as I've done a blog post on this before. But I'm sure you'll let me off just this once :)

Having a green day...

My intention for doing a blog post today would have been an Outfit of the Day, but seen as i'm having a lazy day. I don't think you need to see me wearing leggings, an old t-shirt, a hoody, slippers, no makeup and my hair not looking its best.


So you can look at my nails instead, cause they look rather nice & i love this polish. Even though W7 are known as a very cheap brand of makeup, i do love their nail polish's. This colour is my favourite in the shade called 'Envy'. I love it.
