Learning New Things!

Hello everyone!  Yet again it's been quite a while since I wrote a new post here *slaps wrist*  So what have I been up to?   If you've been following me on Facebook you'll see most up to date pics there!  Yesterday we started doing sculpted gels!  It was actually really good fun and I'm looking forward to trying it with acrylic too.

These were my first 3 tries and I did ok!  Practice makes perfect right?

I attended a ladies night at my local Golf club to do some nail art.  I had loads of interest which was great and manged to fit in quite a few people on the night.   Those pics can all be found on my Facebook also.  The lightning wasn't that great combined with my rubbish camera phone but you can still get an idea of what I did!

I did a set of french acrylic on a hairdresser at the college and ended up adding some nail art!

Cute right? :)  There is silver zebra striped lines over the french tip which might be hard to see in the pic.

I also had my mum come in to college to help me pass my gel marble assessment.




Here is the result and then the nails when I removed it the following week.  If hard gel is removed correctly there is no harm done to the nails underneath!  I have been trying to marble with nail polish, which you can do, but it's more fiddly and I'm not getting exactly what I want!  I've done water marbles in the past too but I have to be in the mood to get messy when I do those!




This is the design I was wearing for the past week.  It was really fun and got loads of compliments!  I had those little diamonds for years (so many infact that I could not tell you where I got them from!) and I wanted to use them in a design somehow so this is what I came up with!


I have been shopping at banggood again so lots of goodies arrived!  Part 1 of the haul is up and I am just finishing rendering part 2 which I think will be posted on Saturday.



These glitters are SO amazing!  I just love the prices on there too.
Also in the shopping theme.....

Yep!  Matching new zebra trolley and brush case!  So excited to finally have these.  I have the trolley nicely packed with my art goodies now :)  I also did a video on it showing it off for those curious about getting one themselves.


In terms of other nail related videos I've posted since my last blog, check these out!

Some funky black and white nails!


A striping tape star tutorial!

*phew*  Think thats the videos caught up now!  I had good fun creating this next nail art which I was inspired by an eeyore tshirt!




Cure right?!  You know, sometimes I think before I start writing out these blogs that I don't have much to talk about.  Then I  go through all my facebook pictures and realise I actually have far too much to talk about!!  I am going to end it here for now, thanks for reading if you got this far!  
Until next time~
