Mail: Say Hi to Emily!

Hey everyone! :)
Today I'm bringing you a beautiful post by Emily, from Nail Must Be Painted! Here is is...

Hello! I'm Emily from Nails Must Be Painted.

I am very excited to be doing my first ever guest post today for Rachel! Hope she is having a lovely holiday!

Usually my nail art consists of lots of girly colours and flowered designs! However, I wanted to do something I thought would be a little more in the style of Rachel's blog, so I have tried something new for me: a distressed, neon mani!


I started with a base of Barry M Matte White. I then sponged a gradient using Sinful Colors Cool Pink and W7 Fluorescent Yellow. Next I covered the whole nail with a coat of Barry M Black, before removing some again with a fan brush, a cotton bud and acetone. I repeated this last step using Sally Hansen Grape Race and finished with a quick coat of Barry M Diamond Glitter on my Ring finger and Barry M 3 in 1 topcoat on the rest of my nails.


Although this is not my usual style, I love this mani and it was surprisingly quick and easy to do! Hope you all like it as much as I do!!

Ooo, I do love a good distressed mani! Thank you for the lovely post, Emily! Make sure you guys go and check out her blog, which is linked at the top of this post!
I hope everyone's had a great weekend, and make sure to check back here on Wednesday for a guest post from Tipped Off Nails!

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!

A Night at the Oscars...

Hello everyone!  Well, it's been quite a long time since I've written... (again!)- Life just keeps catching up with me unfortunately! Anyway... As you all probably know, it was the Oscar Awards last Sunday, and wow- what a mixture of outfits, nails and surprises (I bet that pizza delivery guy had an awesome time!)

GoT: House Stark

Hey everyone! The Fandoms are continuing to 'Strike Back' today, and House Stark is leading the battle in Game of Thrones! Image credit to HBO I think the Starks are my favourite house in the GoT universe, so it seemed like a good place to start for the second half of the Game of Thrones manis- the Houses!
