Burlesque

 
I have been very slack with my posts recently, been busy working etc...
Got very excited about receiving my GELISH products and have started using them, so far they are coming out amazing and i am hoping people love them as much as i do!

One of the beautiful Gelish colours :-)

Im in the process of building up a portfolio of photos to get some inspiration in nail art designs...







I also went to the 'Olympia Beauty Show' which i found really disappointing, but i always get very excited to have a look at the new O.P.I winter colours. The collection is called Burlesque and has a mixture of shimmers and glitters. To start off i bought two of the new glitters...

'Show it and Glow it'
( much more pink than it shows )


'Sparkle-icious'

Its a new GELeration!

Soooo...i am very excited as i just placed my order for the new GELISH - Soak off Gel Polish by Nail Harmony.
There the next big thing...if you have heard of Shellac by CND then you will know exactly what i'm talking about because there pretty much the same.

And these are ones done earlier....



I was so impressed seeing them...they have such a nice gel finish but without the weight of a normal gel and takes no time to do them, so i am very excited about getting these out there, and also doing some nail art with them :-)

WELCOME TO ME!


Hey Guys

This is my very first blog post and ahhhh im scared, but excited! 

Now...i guess you've already figured this is a blog about nails...but i will make it a lil different as there are so many out there, and i'm going to introduce everything that inspires me or just things that i love...and then obviously my love for nails.
This is quite a new love for me but as time goes on I LOVE NAILS even more.

Just a lil about me...

Im 21 and live in London (sounds better than it is) but im still pretty proud! 
I always loved art at school..but walked away from it to start a career in beauty, which i have been doing for like 3 years now! 
I've decided over time my biggest passion in the industry is nails, and i am constantly researching everything nail related. One blog i LOVE at the moment is 'Laquerized' so everyone check it out. 
I'm also a big lover of everything O.P.I and wish i could have every single nail polish of theres...

Now... as everyone knows nail art is becoming more and more popular, especially as it is being seen on fashion magazines, celebrities etcc...and i don't think there is anyone better than 'WAH NAILS' and i am just a little bit obsessed. Also 'MINX' nails, easy answer to nail art but so amazing and so effective.. i had the metallic cheetah design on my toes in the summer and loved it <3 
Everyone is trying out nail art now and its my turn to try..so i have just bought myself 'nubar' nail art pens, and also 'Konad' nail art plate, so watch out for nail art images :-)



'WAH nails' - obsessed (http://wah-nails.com/)



'MINX nails' - amazing! (http://wah-nails.com/tagged/minx/page/)


'nubar' nail art pens


'Konad' nail art plate


There's a lot more i could tell you about me...but to be honest i don't think its relevant right now, and you will learn more about me as my posts continue.

So thanks for reading and i hope you are as excited about my blog as i am... going to leave you now with an image of a few things that i love.

xoxo
