Halloween Nails & Costume

Hi all!

I thought I'd post my nails from Saturday, and my costume. I only have one photo of my complete outfit (hair done, mini hat, and medals) but it's a group shot, and I'm too lazy to ask the ladies if I can post it here :P

What do you think? I loved it, I actually scared people while I was out; it was great :D Wearing dark contacts made me wish I had dark eyes though hahah.

These nails aren't actually the finished product - but I ran out of light before I had a spare moment to take any photos.

Base Coat: CND - Stickey

Base Colour: MUA - Shade 19

Other colours: Cutex - Sweet Pea, Revlon - Teak Rose

Acrylic Paints

Topped with Essie - Muchi, Muchi

Matte: Rimmel - Matte Finish

Later I added Rimmel - Celebrity Bash to make the blood glossy

Got this idea from Samarium's Swatches I added too many coats of Muchi, Muchi though and hid most of the random grossness of the acrylic paints. These looked much better as a finished product!

Hope you're all having a good Tuesday =]

Christmas Pudding!

These are from last week, and this is the only good photo I got, before I got other nail varnish splashed on, when I was painting a set of false nails in the same design for Martine. I'm looking forward to wearing a crazy Pick 'n' Mix for my Christmas nails, as I'm definitely going to have a Christmas Pud on one of my nails! And hopefully do a much better job of the holly seeing as I've had practice now :]

Base Coat: CND - Stickey
Base Colour: W7 - Suede
Polka Dots: Black Acrylic Paint
Icing: White Arylic Paint
Berries: Rimmel - Celebrity Bash
Holly: Nail Art Pen In Green
Top Coat: China Glaze - No Chip Top Coat

This design was found at D.I.Y Nails, who I loooove.

Disturbia Trip Nails

So for probably 3 months I've been wanting to do some Disturbia Clothing inspired nails, and I finally got around to doing them. I've been a fan of Disturbia clothing ever since I found out about them from my good friend Miss. Roy :] 

Me and my boyfriend have 18 T-shirts from them, at the last count, and it's sure to be more tomorrow, as we're attending the Autumn/Winter collection Launch Party, at their new location.

Onto the nails!

M&S - Mini Pink

Mac Glitter - Fuchsia
Striping Tape, Brushes & an Orange Stick.

And here is the T-shirt that inspired me:

Diamonds may be a girls best friend, but they are not mine! I love diamond nail art, but it was such a pain in the bum to do on my right hand, after a few failed attempts, my boyfriend helped me out with the outline (thank god :p) These took many hours to do, and I'm not sure if that's because I like to chill and take my time, or because I was watching back to back Awkward, and other shows. However, I still love them, And they're holding up pretty well for doing them on Sunday.

Waffle Nails

Recently I've been trying to get into more free-hand stamp free designs, but i'm a bit out of touch when it comes to the skills department.

So I decided to start small; and not very detailed just to get used to it again. So I decided to go for a drip design, or strawberry nails. So I bought some acrylic paints - my nail art pens aren't amazing.

I wasn't going to use a stamp aswell, but my recent purchase of a couple of browns gave me a tasty idea!!
