Tartan Nail Art

Step by Step guide to Tartan Nail Art

1 - paint your base colour. - mines burgundy by Opi

2 - paint a thick line (I used white) across the bottom or top of the nail not right at the edge

3 - go around the edge of the white line with black & one thin line through the centre then draw two vertical lines on the left or right side 

4 - in the bottom or top corner draw one horizontal & one vertical line over lapping each other

5 - finish with a top coat I used Glamour Glitter by Nails Inc

Halloween Nail Art - Cobwebs

It's almost that time of year again & to get you in the spirit here's the first of my Halloween Nail Art looks, this is a pretty simple look, that, to be fair can be worn all year round but is great for halloween ! 

You can alter this look to be done on every nail or change the colours although I think the simple black & white is most effective & most versatile !

Colours used :

La Femme : Black

White nail art pen

Rimmel : clear top coat 

Red & Gold Christmas Style Nail Art

I'm one of those people that will literally count down Christmas from August, so with only a couple of months to go I'm feeling super festive. I wanted to do some festive nails without them looking too Christmassy & scarring people when they see them that there's only 70 odd days to go :) 

This could be wore all year round really & would work in any colour variation depending on how you like them !

Colours used :

Ciate - burgandy 

gold nail art pen

Nails In Glitter top coat 

Turquoise Zig Zag Mix & Match Glitter Nails

Couldn't decide what to paint my nails so I did a bit of everything haha !

Colours used : Headline Colours Pool Party

La Femme: Beige Grey

La Femme : Gold Glitter

Black & Gold Nail Art Pens

I want to do this again but different colours I love the design so much what colours shall I use next ? Xx

Marble Nail Art

I've had ago at water marbling a few times & sometimes it goes great, sometimes it literally looks like sludge :/ it's incredibly messy & quite a long process although you have to be pretty speedy whilst applying - sounds complicated I know but once you get the hang of it it's pretty easy. Search water marbling on YouTube & there's tonnes of tutorials :) my little finger smudged after doing this :(

All White Everything

Omg it's been so long since I posted :/ sorry! But while I haven't been posting I have been obsessed with white nails, I've just come back from 10 days in Ibiza & had white on my nails almost everyday, literally everyday on my toes & there still white now ! It's a very flattering toe nail colour ! With this look, like every look I couldn't leave it too plain so I went over with a glitter polish from Nail Inc & applied some gold gems to the bottom of each nail to add a bit of glam :)

Polish used :

Nails Inc - Gold Glmaour 

La Femme - White 

Pink & White Ombré Nail Art

Haven't posted in sooooo long I've been I'll :( all is well now though thankfully & I'm back with a new take on my previous nail art post, I've gone with the ombré/ dip dye effect again but this time chose a much girlier look using a metallic white/silver polish for the base I went over the top half with a bright girly pink, followed with a palm tree design drew on with a small brush & finished with a few coats of clear polish I found this a great look as I was going to a festival & needed something that stood out, this really does work in pretty much any colour combination too ! 

What do you think ?!
