Wiki'd Nails: Tattoo

Hey everyone!

So I joined a challenge group on facebook. You may have heard of the A-Z nail challenge? If not, you can see what all of those lovely ladies got up to right here.

Since that challenge finished, they came up with a new challenge, the Wiki'd nails challenge, where once a week for 10 weeks we each tackle a prompt from a wikipedia page.



Week 1 is none other than... Tattoo!

My original plan for this prompt was to re-create my new tattoo on my nails somehow. I actually even had a pretty perfect stamping image for it... but I left it at home and I don't go back til next Monday. *pout*


So since that plan had gone down the drain, and I thoughtlessly painted my nails a pretty blue from Models Own- Turquoise Sea, that is, I decided to stamp in black anything I would consider getting a tattoo of. 
Apologies in advance for the low-quality pics, my camera was also abandoned at home!


To start with, I've always wanted a wolf tattoo, so that just had to go first and took pride on my thumb, despite the stamping not being too clear (sad times with my poundland stamper, missing my squishy MoYou London one)! 


Then I added a swallow, as my friend actually got this near-exact image tattooed on her shoulder a couple of weeks ago! The leaves are kind-of a tie together, and are something I would actually use to tie together two tattoos or parts of a sleeve etc. 


And finally, the deer head obviously represents my current tattoo, which you saw above, and the dream catcher is something I would definitely consider as a little wrist tattoo!


There's a weekly inLinkz along with this challenge, so make sure to check out what everyone else is doing too. I feel like we all took pretty different approaches to this prompt! Posts will hopefully go up every Thursday for this challenge, so make sure to keep your eyes peeled.




See you soon!

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!
