French Dot Tips


I'm happy to say that I'm officially back to NOTW posts! 
Although my nails aren't fully back to its healthy state, it hasn't broken on me considering the length it is at.
Anyways I have been painting my nails a lot more recently since I have been using the Maybelline Express Remover Pot
I did feel like using my dotting tool and so I thought of doing some fancy smancy French Tip Nail Art.
All I did was use a purple polish to paint over my white tips then start to place random dots everywhere but making sure to do a gradual dot (bigger dots towards the tips). Then I used a similar colour to do a gradual dot.
The thing is that I didn't use a base coat since I didn't have time to wait for it to dry. (Lazy me)


Nail Polishes & Tools:

Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Hardener
Chi Chi Nail Polish in Social Butterfly
Colour Theory Polish in Mocha Mauve 
OPI Top Coat
Dotting Tool

Adventure Time- LSP Nail Art

The purple isnt that bright in person!

Being a massive fan of Adventure Time, I decided to paint my nails to an Adventure Time character, I chose to do LSP (Lumpy Space Princess) which is my favourite character in the show!



I was going to do a new character every week or so but sadly I had to cut my nails short. I'm currently in the process of cutting and regrowing my nails until it has no layers breaking off (my nails are incredibly weak :( ), so I won't be posting anymore nail posts until they're to its normal length.


Products used:
  • Ulta3 Nail Polish in Base Coat [Not shown]
  • Savvy by DB Nail Polish in Grapetini
  • Savvy by DB Nail Polish in Pina Colada
  • Ulta3 Nail Polish in Midnight
  • Ulta3 Nail Polish in Clear [Not shown]
  • Dotting tool



What nail art should I do next once my nails have grown?

Bumble Bee Nails


I did these nails awhile ago but managed to post them up now.
If they seem familiar to you, they're the Bumble Bee Nails that Bubzbeauty did!
I was always wanting to do these nails when she first uploaded this... in 2011, yes I am very late but I never had the chance to get a light blue nail polish until now so I did these nails once I bought the colour.

Pink Gradient Glitter Tips


A while back I painted my nail tips a gradient glitter. After seeing so many people doing this, they looked so pretty so I decided to try it out myself.



Nail polishes I used
 Just going to say that I still have a lot of nail polish posts to post out so they may be months/weeks old. I usually only post them once every few weeks.

Jack Skellington Nail Art!


Although I am late in posting this during Halloween, there is no rule that states that you're not allowed to paint your nails in a Jack Skellington way only for Halloween! (although i did paint this before Halloween...)

Right hand...completely failed
So I actually used a dotting tool and a toothpick to do the white stripes and Jacks face. 
My nails started to chip on the 2nd-3rd day but luckily I still have one of jacks face on my nail while the rest were removed with nail polish remover :D

What nail art should I do next?

Nails of the Week!


This weeks nails I finally stopped my procrastinating ways and did Totoro Nails!


Totoro has probably been my all time favourite movie! I remember watching this film when I was little and watching most of the studio ghibli films. It's a great childhood film! I probably have an obsession with Totoro now.

Left-Right: Clear, Midnight, Lily White, Earl Grey and base coat.

Nails of The Week!

Too lazy to watermark my pictures :/
My friend requested me to do her nails in a leopard print last week so I decided to go practise on myself before doing her nails! Here are the final results (:


So I just painted my nails with a base coat beforehand then painted the base white.


Used my dotting tools to dot random shapes/blobs kind of like a giraffe print or cow print (:

Then used the smaller side of my dotting tool to draw C's  on the outline of the shapes :D pretty simple!

I will be uploading more reviews soon, I just dont have the time atm since exams are coming up so I have more work aswell to practise :C
