It’s stripes or pastel for this week’s 52 Week Pick n Mix Challenge so I have some yellow, black and white stripes and flowers nails. I started off trying to paint some black and white stripes over the yellow base, which is China Glaze Metro Pollen-Tin. But it just wasn’t working and looked a mess. […] Read more
For the first time in a month, I’m actually on time with posting for the 52 Week Pick n Mix Challenge. I was tempted to do a splatter manicure, but I’ve gone just with the aqua theme and have done an aqua gradient that I’ve stamped with a floral image from Born Pretty Store plate […] Read more
The two challenge prompts for last week’s 52 Week Pick n Mix Challenge were: red and pink, or skittles. I chose to create some pink, red and white mini dotted flowers. My design is entirely inspired (copied!) from one done by Nail That Design. I used all Nella Milano polishes for this design. The pink […] Read more
Oops, I’m late again for the 52 Week Pick n Mix Challenge … but only by a day. The prompts were navy and scales. I’ve combined them this week and have used Morgan Taylor Under The Stars, stamped with a mermaid scales design in silver. Morgan Taylor Under The Stars is a long time lemming […] Read more
The two prompts this week for the 52 Week Pick n Mix Challenge are Saran wrap (cling film) and glitter. I am fairly short on time at the moment, so opted for a simple neon blue cling film manicure, using two China Glaze neons. I started with a base of China Glaze At Vase Value. […] Read more
I’ve combined the two prompts for this week’s 52 Week Pick n Mix Challenge: pink and lilac, and roses, by creating a pink and lilac gradient, which I’ve then stamped some white roses onto. The gradient is made with two Nella Milano polishes: Pinkifield and Lady Lavender. They worked extremely well for gradienting, because they […] Read more
The two themes for this week’s (well, last week’s) 52 Week Pick n Mix Challenge are plaid and/or orange, red and green. I went for the colours and created a red, orange and green floral manicure. This is done with all Barry M polishes: Blood Orange (red), Satsuma (orange), Spring Green (green, obviously) and Cotton, […] Read more
I’ve gone for the bright and happy prompt for this week’s 52 Week Pick n Mix Challenge and have a stamped pink, orange and red gradient. The colours are certainly bright and happy, and the stamping image also seemed cheery to me. I created the gradient with Nella Milano polishes: Blushing Bloom (pink), Chilli Blaze […] Read more
I’m late with last week’s 52 Week Pick n Mix Challenge. The prompts were lilac and teal or pastels. I was already wearing Bundle Monster Voodoo Lounge with some stamping. I removed the stamping and added some roses in lilac and teal. It’s not my favourite manicure ever. I did it quite quickly and the […] Read more
The two prompts for this week’s 52 Week Pick n Mix Challenge are taupe and paisley. For the first time since February, I’ve combined the two and done some taupe paisley stamped nails using Nails Inc Marylebone Mews. It’s not the most imaginative nail art you’ll see for the this prompt. I couldn’t get very […] Read more
