These red lace nails are inspired by a dress and are for the 40 Great Nail Art Ideas fashion prompt. The base for this is Barry M Nude, but apart from that, I’ve used some fantastic Moyra products for this look, which is inspired by a red lace dress – see below for the inspiration. […] Read more

Red Geometric | 40 Great Nail Art Ideas

This week’s 40 Great Nail Art Ideas theme is red and my own personal prompt is geometric. So these are my red geometric nails. The base is the classic and iconic Chanel Rouge Noir.

Coffee-Inspired Swirls | Twinsie Tuesday

I’m late with the Twinsie Tuesday prompt this week. I’ve been ill in bed with flu, and then I went away for a few days at the end of the week for my birthday. So these coffee inspired swirls are rather late. I wasn’t sure what to do when I saw the coffee prompt. Normally […] Read more

Dry Brush Pink Hearts | Love | 40 Great Nail Art Ideas

These dry brush pink hearts nails are two days late for the love prompt of 40 Great Nail Art Ideas. Everyone in our house has, or has had, flu. It’s an unhealthy place this week.

Purple Fishbraid | 40 Great Nail Art Ideas

I got lucky with the prompt for 40 Great Nail Art Ideas this week. The theme is three colours of purple, and my personal prompt is fishbraid – which needs three colours. So purple fishbraid nails was an easy one to do. I used three Barry M polishes: Bright Purple, Plum and Lilac Foil. I’ve […] Read more

Peach, Cream and Navy Dotted Half Moons | Twinsie Tuesday

The Twinsie Tuesday group is back with dotticures this week and I have created a peach, cream and navy dotted half moons manicure. The peach base is Nella Milano Peach Schnapps.

After a bit of a hiatus during December, the Twinsie Tuesday group returns today with a Christmas manicure. I have created some Fairisle Christmas jumper nails, in cream, pink and blue.
