Weekly Nail Blog Round Up

Hello~ :) If everything goes well, I will have a new table by my next post, yay! Can you believe my current study table is from waay back when I was a kid? I think I've had this for at least 10 years...time to upgrade to a bigger and better one :P But enough of my ramblings, here's this week's nail blog round up!

I had everything looking rosy

Neon, to fight the gloom

Hi everyone~ :) All last week was filled with rain, rain and more rain over here so I thought I'd fight the gloominess with a bright neon manicure :P.

I used two coats of Sportsgirl Citrus and as with all neons it was sheer, so I started off with one coat of Ulta3 lily white before layering Citrus over it. I applied a coat of OPI Black shatter to soften the brightness a bit ^^

Apologies for the lobster fingers but this was the only photo which showed the true shade of the polish. Personally I'm a bit too afraid of drawing attention to neon shades on my tips so I think shatter/crackle polishes are awesome for layering over them :). What do you think?

Rose water decals

Hello~ :) Woohoo, I've finally finished exams and am ready to party haha ♥ I wore this mani into my exam and was constantly distracted by it...good thing it was an easy exam :P The full nail water decals are from Viva la nails and part of the blogger sample pack I received awhile ago.

I spent waaay too much time trying to get the water decals to work though, they just refused to dry and stick onto my nails! :( And on top of that, I ruined my pinky one and had to make do with left over decals. Because of the oopsies I made, I used some rhinestones and bullion beads I received from Born Pretty Store - a nail art etailer - to cover them up. I loove the rhinestones, they're so easy to use :)

And a picture of the rhinestone wheel. My favourite has got to be the beautiful light blue under the purple rhinestones on the left. It seriously flashes so many colours ♥

A pink manicure

Hello~ :) As most of you know, I'm not a fan of pink or reds on my nails. So I really don't know why I decided to pick out a rare pink nail polish in my stash for this mani :P. I applied two coats of Ulta3 natural spring which is a sheer, pastel pink polish. I then layered two coats of OPI Teenage dream over it, giving it some bling with the beautiful holographic glitter. I had to adjust the photo a bit because the polish came out too light, hence the slightly redder fingers!

What do you think of it this mani? I wore this for one and half days before I took it off. For some reason, I just don't like how pink looks on my nails. Anywhere else is fine, just not for a mani :P

Edyta, you beauty ♥

Hello~Just a quick and simple post before I head for the books again :). This is two coats of Zoya Edyta and it's a glorious dark, mossy green with golden flecks swimming in it. It was lovely to apply and even more lovely to wear on my nails ^^ Ahhh, I love each and every one of my Zoyas.

A true beauty to behold ♥ What do you think? :)
