REVIEW TIME! I was searching through my nail art supplies for some inspiration when I came across these Sally Hansen nail wraps. It was 8pm and the fuss-free nature of these was just too enticing to refuse!

REVIEW! Sally Hansen I Heart Nail Art Pen

I received a Sally Hansen I Heart Nail Art Pen in my December Nailbox. Having not done a review post for a while (or any post for that matter) I though't I'd share my thoughts of this product with you all!

Lightening Bolt nails with NailVinyls™

Once again I’ve found myself shying away from a freehand design! Yikes!

But I feel it's ok because quality is never compromised when using these Nail Vinyls™by Teismom.

If you haven't heard of Nail Vinyls before. They are basically pre-cut stickers that you place over your nail, paint over it, then pull it off to reveal sharp, crisp edges. And they are SO easy to use. If you get the chance to pick some up, I would definitely recommend them.

I chose to go with 2 bright colours and a metallic . I'm really trying hard to get my nail shape right at the moment. Can you tell I'm struggling with my middle finger? It just seems a lot fatter than all the others (so annoying). If anyone has any shaping tips then do let me know!

Anyway I hope you like this mani, and thanks for reading.

Snakeskin inspired nails!

As part of Bonprix's blogger competition, I've decided to do some snakeskin style nails!

With party season just around the corner (yay!) the idea was to create some nail art inspired by one of their dresses. I chose this Animal Wrap dress because I've not done many animal print nails before and thought it would be the perfect combination for a glam night out with the girls.

I used Barry M's black and white polishes to stamp a design over a gun grey base. I then topped off with some studs for that extra edgy look. And I'm really pleased with how they've turned out!

Let me know what you think ladies, and feel free to join in on the competition, just use the #partypolished on twitter and follow the rules on the competition page.

Happy nail painting!

Mo You London nail stamping

After being away from nail painting for so long I was too scared to dive straight in with some free hand, so decided nail stamping was the solution!

So today's post is a quirky stamping design using one of MoYouLondon's XL stamping plates.

Models Own Velvet Goth review

So, despite my previous enthusiastic post displaying my dedication to get back to blogging…here we are two months later with an actual post….finally!

So as I said in my last post, I was the lucky winner of Models Own's Velvet Goth Collection via one of their Facebook giveaways (having never won anything like this before!) so thought I'd write a review post about the collection.

So here goes!

Upcoming review!!

So, as you may have noticed, I've recently gone through a slight (6 month) dry spell in the blogging world. But today I'm determined to blow the cobwebs away by sharing some exciting news!!

A few days ago I was a lucky runner up of a Facebook giveaway run by Models Own, and my prize was an amazing box set of their Velvet Goth collection. Never having one any sort of giveaway before, this was ridiculously exciting for me…

So. Plan. In the next few days or so I'll be swatching and reviewing each of the 5 polishes in the collection, and will put a post up about it for you all to read!

Watch.
