LiL Challenge: Food!

Hey everyone!
Yes, yes, it's Thursday- it's usually one of my days off, but shh, I brought a surprise for you all!
This month (July, already!?) I'm doing a Nail Art Challenge set up by Life in Lacquer!

If you want to join in too, there's still time, and you don't have to join in every single challenge day if you don't want to, but it would be awesome if you do.


Here's my mani for the first topic- food! 

I remembered vaguely that I had a cute little fruity stamping plate somewhere in my stamping kit- and I was right! Look how cute these things are! 






The polish I used was called "Mayfair" by Nails Inc. It's a cute little slightly-metallic white/cream shade, though I wouldn't wear it by itself. It's surprisingly opaque, and took only two coats to cover my nails evenly, which is awesome! 


Here's the plate I used- Konad m55. Isn't it cute?


My friend Sarah is also taking part in this challenge! She took the food spectrum to the opposite side that I did, and went for some unhealthy, yet super cute cupcakes!



Aren't they cute!? 
So, that's today's surprise and challenge reveal- check back on Monday, after 6pm UK time for the 2nd challenge prompt- pink!


I hope you enjoyed today's post, and will check back tomorrow where I'll be showing you my prom nails!
Thanks for reading,

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!
