Requested Nail Art Pics - Roses and Hearts

Hi guys :)

If you are a fan of my facebook page then you will know that I asked people to make suggestions that they'd like to see. I have had loads but chose the best few to do first.

First up was Alex and Heather asking for roses and hearts.


This was a pretty basic mani but instead of doing plain hearts I decided to make them with single glitters. I placed a full heart on my ring finger and then wanted to do something different, so I put the bottom of a heart on my middle finger, which then looked like a V. I put the 'top' of this heart on the index finger, which ended up looking like an E. It wasn't until I was trying to figure out which way to place the glitters on my pinkie, that I noticed that I could make the word LOVE by placing the glitters in a certain way, so the pinkie ended up an L, or sideways V :)

Below is a blurry pic to show the glitters better as I couldn't for the life of me get a clear pic without glare.


I painted a rose first on my thumb, then thought it looked bare so I painted yellow around it. I didn't like the yellow, so painted it over with baby blue.


Not my greatest mani but not bad for a late night, left-handed mani :)

Grey tips and Glequins

Hi guys :D

For the next week or so I am going to post pictures from my vault as my nails have been battered from the family holiday :(

I had no nail care for a week and that led to splits and breaks and bad cuticles... euuggghhh.... sooo, I had to bite the bullet and file them all down to little baby nubs. Sad face.

Anyhoo, here is a mani I had on from a few weeks before the holiday.

First off, I put on a base coat and tipped them with my grey franken - Graphite.


This has a gorgeous shimmer to it:


I then added some single largeish hex glitters to my nails in random designs:




These are the glitters I used:


I topped this off with 2 coats of your basic top coat and voila!

Hope you like
