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 may recognise the colour from Friday's post! Barry M's "Rhossili"



This corrector pen then- what's the deal with it? Well, it's acetone free, for a start, so it isn't going to dry out your skin too much. It's basically, a highlighter nib soaked in some form of nail polish remover, and (personally) a lot easier and more precise to use than a cotton-bud is.


There are also two more nibs tucked away inside the lid of the pen- so hopefully it'll last a while! The shape of the nib is really useful, as you can get detailed by just using the pointed end, or you can clean up any large messes using it flat. Here's the magic it worked...


So, they're still a little messy, but just look at the difference! Plus, you can easily go around your nails again! If you notice in time, before you take pictures that is. 



So yes, the Models Own "Erase" corrector pen, for only £4.99 from Superdrug or ModelsOwnIt.com. If you're a messy pup like me, I definitely recommend it. :)


Thank you for reading and I shall see you Wednesday!

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...

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!
