Autumn fall manicure



Today's blog is about a Autumn fall manicure.
I started off with my unt peel off base coat then i add a fiber strong base coat.
I then added 2 coat of my base color i used Jessica in cinnamon kiss.
I then add Born pretty stamping polish in 1 (gold) to the image id like to use.
I used my born pretty scraper to scrap once.
I roll my born pretty stamper to pick up the image.
I always use acetone and a cotton claw to clean my plate after every use I also use a lint roller to remove unwanted polish from my stamper.
I add a drop of polish onto a silicone mat and use a small dotting tool to fill in the image.
I used a green, orange and brown polish to fill in all the leaves. I leave it to dry then I add a white polish to help make the colors pop and then leave it to dry again.
i add liquid latex to protect my cuticles from stamping.
 I add clear polish to a makeup sponge then dab it onto my nail, then I line up the image then roll it onto my nail.
I use a cuticle pusher to help break the seal around my cuticles.
I then use my tweezers to peel off the liquid latex. I then use a brush dipped into acetone to clean up around my cuticles.
I then use seche vite fast dry topcoat to seal in my design and leave it to dry.
When my manicure is dry I then add cuticle oil and message it in.
Now its all done ready for photos.

4 way manicure using my custom polish

Today’s post is about a custom polish I had made by the lovely Toxic nailz I asked her if she could make me 4 bottles so I could send them to 3 friends. I wanted it to be a hot pink holographic polish and named as Mia’s diva’z. So when everyone had got there polish we decided to do a 4 way manicure using my polish with flowers

I started with a base coat from French No1
.
I then applied 2 coats of Mia’s diva’z. It’s absolutely stunning in person.
Here a picture of the polish outside as you can see the rainbow from the holographic polish. It’s so beautiful I was over the moon when Toxic had said yes to making me this polish as it’s perfect.

I then applied my liquid latex to protect my cuticles from stamping and to minimise  the clean up after.

I used Born Pretty stamping polish in white #4 to the image I wanted to use. The stamping plate is UR sugar in UR-L015 also from Born Pretty. I try to scrape just once. 
I roll my Stamper to pick up the image. I line up the image onto my nail and roll it on.

I peel off my liquid latex and do any clean up around my cuticles with a angled brush with acetone.

I then use seche vite fast drying Topcoat to seal in my design and I let it completely dry.
When everything is dry I add my own cuticle oil and massage it into my cuticles. Now they are ready to take pictures and be posted on social media.

This is what my friends came up with Jo Howland is the first picture, then it’s Louise you can find her on instagram as purple wolf nails, there is Georgia you can also find her on instagram as babyxgx83x As you can see they all did a wonderful job that I’m proud to be apart of.

Tropical flowers water decals review

Today’s post is a review for kaz creations she kindly sent me some tropical flowers water decals.

I started of with unt peel off base coat.

I then added LA colors fiber strong.
Then I added my base color from Essence brushed metal in 02 can’t stop the feeling.
I applied 2 coats.
Then I leave it to dry completely. 
I cut out all the decals I’d like to use.
I then cut the decals as close as I can to the image.
I then place the decal into warm water for about 10 to 20 seconds.
I then remove the decal from the water.
I place the decal onto my Stamper and slide the backing paper from the decal. I dab my Stamper on some kitchen roll to remove excess water from the decal.
I line up the image and roll my Stamper onto my nail where I’d like to place the decal.
I use a angled brush with acetone to remove any decal off of my cuticles and side walls. 
When I’ve done all my nails I apply seche vite fast dry Topcoat to seal in my design and leave it to dry completely.
When my nails are dry I add my cuticle oil and gently massage it into my cuticles. Now my nails are ready for photos and to be posted on social media. 
Here is the end result.
