*Late* Merry Christmas :)

It's the new year and I still haven't posted my Christmas nails yet, oops.
 So here they are :)


This one is stripey like wrapping paper with a sparkly Christmas tree on the thumb. I just had to cut all my nails because some broke, so I wasn't really in the mood for much more than stripes :/

Colours Used:

Base - OPI: Did You 'Ear About Van Gogh?
Red - Orly: Ruby

Green - Zoya: Hunter

Gold - Essie: Good As Gold
Sparkly Green - China Glaze: This is Tree-mendous

Here are some bows on sparkly bases of silver and gold. And a random wreath. 

Colours Used: 
Gold - China Glaze: Angel Wings
Silver - China Glaze: Glistening Snow
Greens - Zoya: Holly and Zoya: Hunter
Red - Sephora by OPI: Ruby Without a Cause
Black - OPI: Black Onyx

These are my favourite. I made Gingerbread men and decided to do Gingerbread men nails :D

Colours Used:
Red - China Glaze: Ruby Pumps

Gold - Orly: Luxe

Acrylic paints for the gingerbread men.

Hope everyone had a good Christmas and New Year :D

Roses and Delicate Stamping

I was inspired by roses, so I painted some on my nails. I went for a delicate and not too crowded design. Here's what I did:

I really like how this turned out.
Excuse the weird shaped nails, I have a few patched breaks.

Here's a close up of the pattern I stamped using MoYou London Fairytale Collection Plate 3.

Colours Used:

Purple - Essie: Lilacism

Silvery Colour for Stamping - A-England: Fonteyn

Pinks - Zoya: Lara and Flora

Greens - China Glaze: Starboard and Gaga for Green

Medieval Dragons

Last week I decided to use one of my favourite polishes - A-England Dragon. It's awesome. So what would go better than dragons? Nothing. So that's what I did.

Messy Mansion plate MM05 was perfect for this :D

Colours Used:

Green - A-England: Dragon
Silver - A-England: Excalibur Renaissance 

Black - Black Stamping Polish from Born Pretty Store

Orange with Blue Flowers and Blue and Green Stamping

The last two weeks I was studying like mad for my exams, so these were the two easy designs that I did because there was no way I was missing out on painting my nails :D

This is a gradient with flowers. I rushed a little because I had so much studying to do, but here it is. It is way more orange than how I wanted it, but it grew on me haha :)

Colours Used:
Dark Orange - Revlon: Alluring Amber
Light Orange - Zoya: Cole
Dark Blue - China Glaze: First Mate
Light Blue - OPI: No Room For The Blues
Dark Green - China Glaze: Starboard
Light Green - China Glaze: Gaga for Green



This one was inspired by a girl I follow on Instagram and YouTube (@opalliegh18). She does a lot of cool stamping and inspired me to use more than one colour at once. I tried it and I like it :)
I used MoYou London Sailor Collection Plate 7 for this. 

Colours Used:
White - China Glaze: White On White
Blue, Green and Mint Stamping Polishes by Mundo de Unas

Catch Up

So I have been pretty swamped with uni work that I haven't uploaded pictures of my nails for about 5 weeks. So here they are :)



I got some new stamping plates from MoYou London and there is a design on one of them that looks just like a necklace I have. 

I used MoYou London Sailor Collection Plate 5. I added some rhinestones to my ring finger and thumb and just silver dots on the rest.

Colours Used:

Black - A-England: Bridal Veil
Gold - Essie: Good as Gold
Silver - Rimmel London: Her Majesty

This one reminds me of gothic wallpaper or something. I used another new MoYou London stamping plate. The stamping plate was the Fashionista Collection Plate 7.

I bought a macro lens for my phone so I could take close ups, so this is just a test photo. It gets really close but I think it's too macro... But look at that holo :D

Colours Used:
Black - A-England: Camelot

Silver Holo - Color Club: Harp On It

This one is quite spring feeling. A soft purple gradient, delicate gold glitter and daisies. I quite like it.

Here is another macro shot that is too macro. But look at those gold flecks :D So pretty.

Colours Used:
Darkest Purple - China Glaze: Spontaneous
Light Purple - Essie: Lilacism
White - China Glaze: White On White
Yellow - China Glaze: Lemon Fizz
Green - China Glaze: Gaga for Green
Gold Glitter - A-England: And the Moonbeams

I'm not sure how I feel about this one. I like the colours together, but I feel like it's a bit messy. I tried the waterless marble technique for this.

Colours Used:
Blue - OPI: Swimsuit...Nailed It!
Purple - China Glaze: Let's Groove
Gold - Orly: Luxe

These are just some peacock feather nails that I did. I kind of like them, but I rushed them a bit. And maybe too much gold...

Colours Used:
Base - OPI: Thanks a Windmillion 

Greens - China Glaze: Gaga for Green and Sinful Colors: San Francisco

Blues - OPI: No Room for the Blues and China Glaze: Blue Iguana

Gold - Essie: Good as Gold 

Half Moon

This is the last Moonbeam Lacquer that I have (so far). It's called Moon Dust and it's sooo pretty!


This glitter is moon themed as well, but I didn't want it to be too similar to my other moon I did for Lunar Ritual. So I did a bit of a half moon and a star. And lots of glitter :D

For the moon, I just painted a white half circle and sponged on some black, grey and some more white until I was happy with it.

Colours Used:
Black - A-England: Camelot
White - China Glaze: White on White
Grey - Sinful Colors: Cool Grey
Glitter - Moonbeam Lacquer: Moon Dust

In the Garden...

I'm a bit late posting these photos, but they continue on from the last two posts and there is one more to come after this one :)


This next one is called Garden Nymph. I decided on a Spring theme

I did a light, Spring gradient/ombre and topped it with the beautiful glitter that is Garden Nymph :D

I stamped some grass and flowers on just my thumb and ring finger because I wanted the glitter to be the main focus. I used MoYou London Mother Nature Collection Plate 1.

I just love this glitter! 

Colours Used:
Purple - Essie: Lilacism
Green - China Glaze: Gaga for Green
Green for Stamping - Mundo de Unas: Military Green Special Stamping Polish
Glitter - Moonbeam Lacquer: Garden Nymph
