A bit of a jumble

Hey everyone! I will only be posting on Wednesday and Saturday until next week, and then hopefully things should become more regular again! You might also have noticed that I've changed the comments back to having a spam check, I'm sorry I've had to do that, I was getting around 8 spam comments a day and it was just getting a bit annoying, I hope you will still take the time to comment, I do love reading what you all have to say!

Now, onto the nails! I was feeling a bit uninspired, so I decided that I would just paint my nails a lovely colour (OPI - Thanks a Windmillion) and see where I went from there. Then when I had it on I thought of doing an accent glitter nail, and then the whole black and silver theme came to me and that was it, I just painted what I felt like. I used black acrylic paint and Barry M - Silver foil, alongside Barry M - Limited edition silver glitter. I particularly like the middle finger and will most likely be doing a whole hand of that, so I apologise that you'll be seeing such a similar design sooner or later. Anyway, I hope you like them!

Blue Mix 'n' Match

So after the pink mix and match I decided I really liked how they turned out and I wanted to try something similar with blue (my favourite colour if you havn't yet noticed haha) and I like these even more than the pink ones! I hope you do too

I used a base of Barry M - Blue Moon, with Essie - School of Hard Rocks for the darker blue and China Glaze Electric Feel for the lighter blue

Pink Mix 'n' Match

So today I decided to combine some of my favourite nail artist's ideas into one manicure. I chose pink because it was first to hand but I may try this with other colours in the future because I really enjoyed doing them. 

Thumb - based on tutorials by The Nailasaurus
Forefinger - based on a more complex design by Dressed Up Nails
Middle finger - MrCandiipants' lovely little flowers
Ring finger - just fancied some studs and I've seen a few people do these
Little finger - Mr Candiipants' again with her zig zags.
