The Nails This Week - Glossy Multi Coloured Nails.

Today I wanted to so something out of the ordinary and mix up the colours I go for and try out some designs too. I saw a similar nail design while shopping for neon/ pastel polishes (naturally) and thought I knew a rookie way to create it myself.



DIY:

1. Applied base coat to nails.
2. Outlined boxes with Black nail marker 
3. Filled in boxes carefully with polish (a toothpick or dotting tool is very handy to spread out colour).
4. Re outlined the boxes with Black nail marker.
5. Applied top coat and to speed up the drying process I used I nail drying spray.

I think using similar shade of green and then adding either a darker or lighter shade gives it a fresh feeling. 

I messed up quite a lot but I'm quite chuffed I did something new and I can't wait to share my ideas with you all. 

Thanks for popping by,

#NOTD Miss Sporty Lasting Colour

Hey Bloggerinos!

It's warm out today and I'm feeling these fresh nails from Miss Sporty. This delicate peach hue is perfect for Spring nail trends as one coat gives a gentle tint to nails which is easily buildable to create a stronger colour pay off.

It's Too Latte (or 525 as the store I visited didn't have the title) shine intensifies as you layer coats but beware it is quite streaky.

All in all for £2 you can't be too fused and for minimal touch to an outfit depending on your style. The brush fits the nail so you don't have to stress about filling in the gaps in the corners. With a base coat I see this lasting on my nails for maybe a week and not the 10 days it claims but I do wash my hands a ton everyday so that my bad. What do think?

Thanks for stopping by folks!
