4th of July Nails!

Hello!

I hope you all had a great weekend. As you know it was the 4th of July (American Independence Day) on Saturday, and so nails were done to commemorate the occasion.




As sad as it may sound, I have had these water decals for a good few months now, and was totally saving them especially for the 4th of July! I grabbed them from Born Pretty Store for around £1 I think (it was so long ago now I can't remember). 


I love how they turned out anyway, placed over two coats of Nicole by OPI's "I Shop Mintage" pastel green polish. I struggled with placing them a little as I wanted the lines to be perfect from edge-to-edge but they just didn't quite reach too well. 


Apart from that minor hiccup I completely love this design and look forward to using the other 3 strips of it! :) 


If you celebrated at the weekend I hope you had a great time, and I hope you love these decals as much as I do!

LiL Challenge: Floral

Hello! Today's prompt for Life in Lacquer's July Nail Art Challenge is Floral! My initial reaction to this was "urgh. Great, I hate flowers." but then I found some really pretty designs around the internet and my spirits were lifted a little! (I really am crazy-impressed by a lot of these mind, they're so detailed and delicate and pretty)

Fridail: OPI Beach Sandies!

Happy Wednesday  Friday everybody! Where did the time go!? Anyway, we'll dive straight in with the post! I apologise in advance for the iPhone-quality of images, I'm still looking for some batteries that my camera won't complain about. Today I'm covering OPI's Beach Sandies from the Brazil collection, which is a little quartet of mini liquid sand polishes. Can I just say here, if anyone high up in the chain of OPI reads this (which is unlikely, but if you do then HI!), please please pleeeeease make these in full-sized bottles? Please! So... This is the box, and the four that you get (I swatched super quickly over each, so do excuse that)
