Green Gradient!

Hey lovelies! 

Today I have a post for you featuring 3 (I think?) never-seen-here-before items! Those are... some green-silver glitter gradient nail wraps, Model's Own Disco Pants "Paradise Garage" and Barry M's Silver Foil! 



As you can see, I did a little green and silver mani with them all, to match the nail wraps which can definitely only be described as 'sparkly goodness'.


The glitter in them is surprisingly fine, but there's so much of it that I don't care! They sparkle super well in the right light.


As for the other nails, I did a sponge gradient on my pinkie (which didn't go so well) and thumb, using Paradise Garage and Silver Foil. 



And on my middle finger I did this strange dot... thing. Which then smudged :(


But, aside from all the little mishaps, I really like the colour combination and will definitely be going back to the nail wraps that I have left in the future!



The nail wrap stickers are of course from none other than Born Pretty Store. You can find them specifically here. Don't forget to use "REEG10" at the checkout for an extra 10% off any full price items! (You must be sick of seeing that sentence by now- I'll give it a break for a while!)


So I hope you liked this mani! As much as I love the colours I don't think I'll keep it on very long as the failed gradients are annoying me a little. But never mind! Drop me a comment and let me know what you think! 

See you all on Monday! :)

  1. That green polish is to kill for. LOL I like the mani, it's cute, but know how you feel. I hate it when things don't turn out the way I planned :/

Cute Hearts| Breast Cancer Awareness Week

Hello! Serious topic this week, over the next 5 days, I'll be posting 5 different designs each containing a pink feature to try and raise awareness for Breast Cancer. In each post I'll include a tutorial, and a 'how you can raise awareness'. How You Can Raise Awareness Today's is so simple, all you have to do is wear a pink ribbon! Wearing the pink ribbon shows that you're supporting Breast Cancer Care, and it doesn't matter how you wear it! Monday's Design: Cute Hearts! Today's design is super easy to do, and looks so cute! Plus it's actually the first design I've thought of 100% on my own :D All you need to complete this design is 3 nail polishes! Ta-Daa!

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!
