It’s pretty fair to say that I don’t post hauls very often, my last one way my Newcastle Haul from October last year! But I just wanted to show you my latest purchase!
I’ve been long overdue a new phone for ages, my last one was several years old and had been slowly dying for the past few months so I finally took the plunge and got myself the White iPhone 4 and even though I’ve had it less than 24 hours I’m in love :)I know this is completely non beauty related but it’ll no doubt appear in a few future posts and it means I’ll be tweeting more & fingers crossed it’ll help me reply to some of your emails and questions a bit quicker!
So anyway I don’t want to ramble too much but.. Do any of you have any suggestions for apps? I’ve got one or two but I’ve no idea which are the good ones!
Hope this hasn’t been too boring!! x P.S any suggestions for cute cases? I’ve only seen boring ones so far & I want something pretty!!
After having a really positive response to my previous simple nail art looks (bubbles,Midnight Sparkles,Strawberry Libertine and Glittery green gradient) I thought I’d post one more which absolutely everyone can do and takes barely any time at all! I apply two coats of Rimmel’s Strawberry libertine Once it's dry apply a swipe of Barry M White nail effects in the corner. ; Up close I think this looks quite pretty but it’s more when you catch a glimpse of it or from far away where it somehow looks really lovely. I've got both the black and the white nail effect polishes & I've been figuring out a few different ways to wear them however this is by far my favourite! . Hope this has been helpful!! x
P.S I’ve got a new header and favicon (the little icon you see next to the web address) & I know I’ve changed my blog’s look a hundred times but I think I’m finally happy – what do you think?
I wasn’t going to post this as I’m not completely happy with it but I thought I might as well as hopefully it’ll be somewhat inspirational to someone :) I can’t really do a tutorial on this as it really is very simple. Just apply an opaque white base coat then taking a cocktail stick draw on some random patterns in a plain black polish!
Hope you’ve enjoyed!! X P.S I’ve done over 100 posts!
Here in the UK it’s now officially Spring Time! And that plus the fact the weather has been absolutely gorgeous where I live I was in the mood to so something cute and simple with my nails and this is what I came up with! It's an (extremely simplified) Cath Kidston inspired floral nail art design that was actually really easy to do and I love it because it reminds me of all the flowers we’ll be seeing soon as well as the warmer weather just around the corner!(you can click the picture you see the design in more detail!) I used Barry M’s Matte White, Spring Green, Fuchsia and a mix of Bright red and Raspberry :)
If you want to do something similar just apply a white base, let it dry then take a cocktail stick, swirl it in the polish and then draw the design on!
If you do this don’t forget a good top coat! (This isn’t difficult to do, but it can be a little time consuming! so make sure you’re watching TV or doing something on the computer whilst you do this otherwise you’ll just get bored waiting for things to dry!)
I hope you’ve enjoyed – Are any of you excited about the start of spring??
I’m only a quarter Irish but I couldn’t let today go without posting a little something dedicated to St Patricks Day!I just did a really simple Irish flag design which only took a few minutes (my Nan was pretty impressed with it though!) I used 3 Barry M colours, obviously you can use what ever you have to hand – I picked Spring Green, Matte White and Tangerine. (if you’re wondering why on earth I have a tangerine nail polish, I’m from Blackpool and a girl’s got to support her local football team every now and then!) I hope you’ve enjoyed – Are any of you doing anything to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day? P.S I know technically the colours should be the other way around to how they appear in the pictures (green, white & orange instead of orange, white & green) but when Ilook at them they look the right way around!
I know this is completely non beauty related but it’ll no doubt appear in a few future posts and it means I’ll be tweeting more & fingers crossed it’ll help me reply to some of your emails and questions a bit quicker!
