Oh mon dieu its the rather awesome 31 day challenge -Day 6 Neon

Hi girlies and welcome to my day 6 entry for the Oh mon dieu its the rather awesome 31 day challenge! Today I went with my Nails Inc new neon shade, Westbourne Grove for the base and Draycott Place for the leopard print. I then outlined with my black Barry M pen.

It’s very bright and funky!

Models Own Artstix

Hi girlies, I have a Models Own Artstix mani for you today and I absolutely love it!

I purchased this at the same time that I got my Revlon Moon Candy polish. It’s quite a fluorescent shade of pink! The glitter is beautiful; hexagons, squares, circles of all sizes and I spotted lots of colours like gold, silver and a bronze coloured tone.

I painted two coats of the base colour and painted the glitter on top of my 3 alternate fingers – it only really took one coat of the glitter. This is one of the best glitters I have tried, as it went on really well with only 3 strokes over my nail. Then I used my Barry M Black Nail Art Pen to dot a border design on my remaining naked nails.

Although it’s really bright for my fair skin tone, I love it! It is such a lively, shiny summery colour and the glitter is great for coverage too.

I think I will try more of these Artstix! Do you like it?

Summer Sun Palm Tree Mani

Hi lovelies, I fancied a bright, sunny mani because of the beautiful weather here in the UK!

20130610-230057.jpgSo I opted for bright orange ‘blandford street’ and a bright peach ‘wellington square’ colours from my Nails Inc. Ready to Wear collection

I did the darker colour as a feature nail and drew a palm tree on it to make it extra sunny!

This colour shows every imperfection within my nails but I like the consistency and coverage of this colour.

The Great Gatsby

Hi girlies, a mani inspired by The Great Gatsby today.

I don’t really like this mani very much, I don’t know why. Maybe it’s because I was loving my butterfly French so much!

Edit: I had to change my thumb because it was really getting to me!

So now I have a little suit & tie on my thumb. Feeling much happier!

Butterfly French

Hi girlies, here is a French with a twist for you. Quite an odd twist.

I used my Rimmel 60 second Coralicious to paint my tips and the base on my feature nail. When I had painted this, I top coated with a coat of Sally Hansen’s Insta-Dri. I then used my Barry M nail art pen for the details.

I chose to do the butterfly nail as I was dying to try it out and thought this would be the perfect opportunity, as I only needed to do one nail. I have posted both my left and right hand with the butterfly design as I was very impressed with the steadiness of my left hand when doing my right hand!

I absolutely love this. What do you think?
