Wail: Vicky's Back!

Hi everybody! Today I return Vicky to you all with another awesome post!
Hope you're all well and having a great week ^^
------------------------------
Hello everyone! It’s Vicky from Vicky Loves Nails back with my second guest post for Rachel whilst she is doing her exams (I hope they have been going well!)


I’ve been using my fan brush quite a lot recently in nail art, so I decided to show you one of the manicure’s I have created using that today. Up until about a month ago I had never used my fan brush, but since trying it I have loved it and I’ve been using it loads.. I don’t know why it took me so long to try it!



For this design I used a base colour of Nails Inc – Holland Park Gardens and used an unnamed Color Club for the fan brush gradient. I decided to combine it with one of my other favourite techniques; the glitter gradient. The glitter I used was Next Nail – Night Fever.




I really loved how these came out; they sort of remind me of dewy grass as the glitter makes it glisten. They were so easy to create too!


Thanks again Rachel for having me on your blog and I hope you all enjoyed my post.

Thank you Vicky! Once again, I adore those colours! And I never even thought about using a fan brush in that way- what a great idea! I'm going to have to try it some time.
Don't forget to go and check out Vicky's blog (link at the top!) and have a great couple of days before you check back here on Friday!
Thanks for reading,

Fridail: OPI Beach Sandies!

Happy Wednesday  Friday everybody! Where did the time go!? Anyway, we'll dive straight in with the post! I apologise in advance for the iPhone-quality of images, I'm still looking for some batteries that my camera won't complain about. Today I'm covering OPI's Beach Sandies from the Brazil collection, which is a little quartet of mini liquid sand polishes. Can I just say here, if anyone high up in the chain of OPI reads this (which is unlikely, but if you do then HI!), please please pleeeeease make these in full-sized bottles? Please! So... This is the box, and the four that you get (I swatched super quickly over each, so do excuse that)

LiL Challenge: Floral

Hello! Today's prompt for Life in Lacquer's July Nail Art Challenge is Floral! My initial reaction to this was "urgh. Great, I hate flowers." but then I found some really pretty designs around the internet and my spirits were lifted a little! (I really am crazy-impressed by a lot of these mind, they're so detailed and delicate and pretty)
