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. I didn’t really fancy painting my nails today, but thought there wasn’t much point in getting this post up any […] Read more
If you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen a quick post I made about the new Bundle Monster Mochi Stamping Station. I’ve now had a chance to try it out and have created my first manicure using it: some pink “I Love You” nails. First off, this stamper is huge. The stamping surface […] Read more
Happy Valentine’s Day! Well, I made it. I’ve posted every day for the Week of Love Valentine’s Nail Art Challenge. Today’s final prompt calls for us to recreate someone else’s manicure or to do something freestyle. I tried a few different things out that I’d not done before, but they all failed, so in the […] Read more
I’ve actually followed the proper rules for today’s Golden Oldie Thursday (GOT) Polish Challenge. Up until now, I have been using untried polishes, despite the idea about the GOT Polish Challenge being that you showcase not-used-in-a-long-time polishes.

So I wanted to try out something a little different. I thought about doing some one-stroke art, but swiftly put that idea back […] Read more
It’s day 2 of the Week of Love Valentine’s Nail Art Challenge and the theme today is kisses. When I first started being interested in nails, I remember being struck by a lovely manicure with metallic pink and silver kisses on it. Of course, now that I want to refer to it, I can’t find […] Read more
I’m taking on the Week of Love Valentine’s Nail Art Challenge. It’s all this week, so five days, culminating on Friday, which is Valentine’s Day.

As we get closer to Valentine’s, it’s no surprise that this week’s theme in the FingerFood’s Theme Weeks challenge is hearts. I’m doing the Week Of Love Valentine’s challenge starting tomorrow too, so there are going to be lots of red, pink and lovey-dovey manicures coming up! The pink nails are three coats of Rimmel […] Read more
