Shades: Crackle

Hello little paraders! :) Here is the post I've promised you a few times already (I'm not too good at keeping track of when I said things) and in this post guess what we've returned to? That's right, the amazing blue and Barry M (the 2 B's of the blog!)



So, this shade is "crackle nails" and I must say, I am a huuuuuge crackle-polish lover, and I think we should totally try and bring it back into fashion since it's kind of gone out of the world recently!
(Chant with me now...)
Bring it back....Bring it back... Bring it back... Bring it back...
(I feel like we should burst into song just about now, but I don't think I have a song to match, never mind!)
Anyway, the polishes I've used here are Barry M Gelly in Watermelon and Barry M Crackle Polish in White =)
All you do is paint your nails normally, before adding the crackle polish over the top, and then finish with a top coat once your crackle is dry. Voila! Quick and easy!
Enjoy the pictures :)





Barry M Watermelon Swatches!

OMG It's so messy! I really need to clean up before taking pictures!






What are your own thoughts on the crackle look? Will you be helping me to bring it back in style? :D

How To: Gradient Nails

Gradient nails are a great way to ensure that your mani matches your outfit over a set period of days (depending on how many colours you use), and it also just looks pretty dang awesome. You've seen a few of my own mani's where gradients have been used (these ones below, in example), especially those in more recent posts! So a tutorial is definitely long overdue- I hope you find it useful!

Wail: Models Own Hypergel "Blue Glint"

Hello hello, good day to you! :) Welcome to the first ever on-purpose Wednesday Nail post! Freshly nicknamed as... The Wail ! Today's Wail features Models Own's Hypergel in the shade "Blue Glint" ! For those of you who don't know, the Hypergel polishes are fairly new polishes by Models Own, being released in February 2014, and they're polishes which produce a 'Gel' effect... Without the use of UV lamps. (Kinda similar to the Barry M Gelly's, but we'll get onto that in a sec) The colour I went for initially was Red Lustre  but I lucked out by a couple of minutes and it had sold out on the Models Own site just  before I went to buy it. *sniffles* So, instead, I went for the blue, cause you can never have too many blues!

Make Sure You Follow!

Hey everyone! Apologies for the lack of yesterday's post- unfortunately this one if going to be the last before I go away tomorrow. I'm not 100% sure if there'll be wifi at the place we're staying (we're going to study the animals after all, not to be social over the internet), but just in case there is, you should make sure that you're following me on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook! I'll try to post at least one image or update on each per day, assuming that we have wifi, so to be a part of this adventure, make sure you hit the buttons!
