Mid-week Manicure: Magical Autumn Flowers

Currently watching: Location, Location, Location

Good morning girls,

Taking advantage of the last few days of autumn, today I'd like to show you an autumn-themed skittle manicure.

 I used the majority of these colours for another autumn-themed manicure last month I think and really loved how they complimented each other.

 Unlike last time however, I decided to stamp using brown instead of gold and oh how glad I was with my decision.

I stamped using Accessorize Magical Mocha, which showed up better over the orange tones than gold would have and looked so beautiful over the red shades, and Bundle Monster plate BM 205.

What do you think girls?

Bye for now,

Saturday's Stamping ft Poptastic Holo Floral NOTD

Good morning girls!

I hope you all have a lovely weekend planned ahead of you.  To start mine, I'd like to show you a floral manicure I recently wore which started as two coats of Barry M Matt White.

 Unfortunately I didn't take photos at every step of this manicure but the next step was to sponge Kleancolor Holo Pink on to my tips.

 I then stamped a floral design using MUA Shade 2 and Bundle Monster plate BM 205.  I had a lot of trouble stamping this design and I made it even worse by smudging the black polish when I applied my topcoat.  Grr.

 To finish, I used my dotting tool to apply Holo Pink to the centre of each flower.

I felt this was a fun and cute manicure which I absolutely loved.  The smudging did annoy me but nobody who admired my nails picked up on it ;-)

What do you think of this manicure girls?

Bye for now,

Laura

Hello dear readers!

How is your week going? Here in Manchester we are finally getting some summer weather and it seems to be lifting everybody's mood :-) Fingers crossed it lasts for the weekend!

Today I'd like to show you the manicure I'm currently sporting, one which is new to me:

I used Eyeko Coral Polish as my base, which I love.

I then stamped using Konad Special White and Bundle Monster plate 205.

Unlike my previous stamping attempt with Konad polish, I didn't have any problems this time. I think it's because I stamped over my base polish instead of my fast dry top coat. Success :-)

What do you think girls?

Bye for now,
Laura
