Retro Flower Nail Art

Okay so, it’s currently 01.46am and I’m listening to Gangnam Style VERY loud and sipping a hot cup of tea, what could be better? I thought it was probably about time I updated my blog… at last! I’ve actually set myself a goal to write a blog post every two days as part of a personal development plan which has really helped me get back on my feet. If you’re interested, ask me more in the comments!

Before I start, I wanted to give my Tiny Granny a quick mention, she sadly passed away last Sunday morning after cancer overcame her body, but it seemed a peaceful end so for that I am grateful. Sending her all my love.

I actually created this design in September, while I was doing the 30 Days of Untrieds Challenge (which I accidentally forgot read:failed to keep up with!), so apologies that this rather summery design comes to you mid-winter…! So here is day 14: flowers, finally!

Rio Marble Nail Art Polish: London Collection

Hello everyone! I know, I know… it’s been forever since I last posted on here, which truly makes me so sad because I love my blog so much… I just seem to have so little free time at the moment; if I’m not at work I’m either sleeping or seeing my Andy and the result is no time to blog or indeed paint my nails! I really want to get back into the habit of doing regular blog posts though so bear with me, I have some ideas to help me manage my time more effectively!

Rio Beauty were kind enough to send me a second kit to review, following my review of the Rio Beauty Lace Nail Foils. I of course JUMPED at the chance, I loved the Lace Nail Foils so I was very excited to try their water marbling kit. To be totally honest with you, I’ve never even attempted a water marble manicure before this kit, purely because I just knew I would make a mess of it!

And of course this makes the perfect second kit to feature in my Christmas Gift Guide 2012!

Brush Marbling – Blues

You may very well have heard about water marbling (a nail art technique where you use water to create a swirly pattern in nail polish to transfer to your nails – Google it for more info!), and this “brush marbling” came about through experimentation with a tiny nail art brush just before I removed Barielle Berry Blue.

Barielle Berry Blue

This was another of the Barielle polishes I picked up in the ‘Heavenly Blue’ box set in TK Maxx, along with Barielle Swizzle Stix. It turned out to be one of my best buys – I adore every single colour in it, and at 5 polishes for £9.99 you can’t go far wrong.

You know me, I just adore blues and there is nothing better than a deep midnight blue creme:
