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!

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!
