Nail School!

Hey everyone!

So over the past week or so I've been doing some training at The Beauty Academy in Manchester, to complete an NVQ Level 2 in Nail Services. So far I've learnt how to do a Manicure, Luxury Manicure, Pedicure, Luxury Pedicure, apply Gel Extensions and apply Acrylics. The hardest part was definitely the acrylics, but it was all a pretty fun and interesting process- I feel like I've learnt a lot, and I still have loads to learn.



I'm gonna be a bit busy (and a bit all over the place) over the next few weeks as Summer draws to a close and I get down to business with the written work I have to do for the NVQ, but I'm going to try to post regularly, and of course do my own nails too. Can't be walking around with bare nails now can I!?

Today I'm organising my polish collection... again. With colour wheels this time, so this should be pretty fun, and I'll update you on that at some point soon! I also still have an item to review for Lady Queen Beauty (I haven't forgotten, just been busy!), but you can check out the previous one here.

And with that I hope you've had a good few weeks, and I will catch you very very soon. If you're keeping up to date on social media you should be keeping up to date with posts quite nicely, and getting some extra goodies in between!

See you very soon! Byeeee!

The Random Sunday Post!

Hello everyone! This is a super quick random post just to say I'm back and also what will be coming up this week! So, I'm still due a Blue Nails post for the British Nail Blogger's Colour Me Crazy Challenge- this will be up tomorrow instead of a Book/Lifestyle post! From Wednesday, the normal posts will resume, so you can expect a Pink Mani on this day for this week's challenge nails! Then on Thursday, it's A Level results day, which means a lot of nervous stressy things to sort out, and I may not have time to write up a post in time for Friday- but I will definitely try, and also update you all in my potential University place! If there is a post on Friday, it'll be a typical naily post- probably a swatch of something! And that is all I think you need to know! Good Luck to anyone else getting results on Thursday! ~Rachel

Your Guide to Barry M Gelly's!

Finally , the time has come for the ever-promised "Barry M Gelly Polishes Review & Swatch" Post! YAY! Now, now, settle down, settle down, and prepare yourself for an image-heavy post! Panorama View? Yes please... Okay, so that picture isn't too great. But there's the colours that between us (Me and Rhian) have in the Gelly range. We're only missing "Grapefruit" I think...

Mail: Messy Mani

Hello! Let it be known that from this day forth, any nail posts posted on Mondays shall be known as "Mail's". Yay! For the first "Mail" post, I'm going to be sharing one of my new purchases with you... Model's Own's "Erase" Corrector Pen! I feel like this could be a major turning point in my blog's image quality, as I no longer have an excuse for messy mani's.  Though I'd first like to point out that I feel like I have come quite far since the beginning of my blog, and no longer post images such as this... I mean, just look at that thumb!? (Polish is Barry M Spring Green) ...Except for today, I'm posting a very (purposefully) messy mani, to show you how the corrector pen can work! Also please keep in mind that I actually did this mani pretty much in the dark, around midnight the other day. :D I quite enjoyed being super careless with my painting, actually. Is that wrong of me? Also, you m
