NOTD: Holo Greek Borders


I really should have thought about how the camera would picture this before I did it! Holo glitter overload, but I love it. I promise you can see the vinyl design way better in person!




Firstly as always I applied a base coat to all nails, I used a peel off base coat because of all the glitter!
On my thumb and little finger I applied 2 coats of Glam Polish Love Always Finds A Way. On my index, middle and ring finger I applied 2 coats of Glam Polish Lunar Eclipse.
I got a couple big orders of Glam Polishes recently so of course I had to use them!




I applied a top coat of Seche Vite to my index and ring finger and allowed to completely dry. I then applied one of these Whats Up Nails Greek Border vinyls as shown. I painted over with Love Always Finds A Way and quickly but carefully peeled away the vinyl.




To complete the mani I applied a top coat of Seche Vite to all nails.
Look at all that glitter!

NOTD: Turquoise Stones


I have wanted to do these for so long now, but me mixing nail polish and water just does not work! So when I got this hehe plate I knew it would be perfect for doing this stone effect. I love them!



To begin as always I applied a base coat to all nails. Then I painted 2 coats of China Glaze Turned Up Turquoise.



To apply 'Ard As Nails #Angel I placed a drop on my Uber Mat and dipped into it some scrunched up cling-film. I then dabbed the cling-film onto my nail until I was happy with the coverage.



I then stamped this image from hehe plate 081 using MoYou London Black Knight.



To finish I applied a top coat, for a change from my normal Seche Vite I decided to use Barry M Gelly Plumpy Top Coat. I knew it would still give a great shine and I was surprised that it also dried really quickly too!

NOTD: Bread & Butterflies


Last month I got an amazing order from Glam Polish through a UK group buy on Facebook and I am absolutely in love with all of them. I have ordered another 13 in this months buy... Oops!
I decided to use the 3 I got from the It's Only A Dream Alice Collection for this mani.



To start as always I applied a base coat, as there is so much glitter I decided to use OPI's Glitter Off. I then applied 2 coats of Glam Polish The Best Futterwacken In All Of Witzend (try saying that when you're drunk!). It is so beautiful that I could have easily just left them there. But I applied a top coat of Seche Vite as I will be using vinyls.



I waited for the Seche Vite to completely dry, I left mine for about an hour just to make sure. I applied Zap Skin Protector (any liquid latex will do) around my nails. Then I applied the butterfly vinyl from Whats Up Nails as shown. I painted on Glam Polish A Place Called Wonderland and A Crazy Mad Wonderful Idea onto a makeup sponge and applied this to my nail until I was happy with the coverage and carefully peeled away the vinyl and liquid latex.
I maybe could have applied a little more in the end, but I think it's just that the picture doesn't pick it up the pattern very well as there is so much glitter! I only did this step on my middle and ring finger.



To complete I applied a top coat of Seche Vite to all nails.

NOTD: Splash MeeBox


Loving this! I did this using all of the contents from my June Splash MeeBox. This is my second MeeBox and I have absolutely loved both of them! I especially loved this one as all the polishes were from A England <3



As I said all the polishes I have used are by A England. To begin I applied 2 coats of The Blessed Damozel to my thumb, middle and ring finger. On my index I applied 2 coats of Whispering Waves and my little finger 2 coats of Gloriana. Once dry I applied Seche Vite to my middle and ring finger ready for the vinyls.



Once my nail was completely dry I placed the Mermaid vinyl supplied in the MeeBox from Nail Stencils as shown. I applied Mess No More! from Mini Mani Moo around my nail which was also in the MeeBox. I then used Whispering Waves and Gloriana and applied on a sponge as shown. I applied this to my nail until I was happy with the coverage. Then I carefully peeled away the vinyl and liquid latex. I did this on my middle and ring fingers. Then on my middle finger I also applied some nail studs. The shell and starfish were part of the MeeBox from She Sells Seashells and I already had the pearl studs so I applied some of them too.



To complete I applied a top coat of Seche Vite to all nails.
