Nail art! Something that until very recently I had never given much thought to.I've always painted my nails, although as they are often in such a bad state (they're very brittle and they peel all. the. time.) I do try to give them a week's break in between every polish.
But recently I've been inspired to try something new - probably thanks to Lauren Conrad's new beauty website from which I found this blue moon tutorial.
I found this tutorial really easy to follow, and the polishes were both from Miss Sporty's collection. These polishes are only £1.99 and available in all good drug stores in Britain. And they are wonderful! Such a bargain and they go on so easily. They have a wide brush, but they're downfall comes from the fact that I needed at least 3 coats of each.
This second tutorial came from a great website that my friend Steph recommended to me, Nailside. This explosion accent nail tutorial was SO difficult to figure out, as I could not get the placing of the tape correctly.I used an NYC red polish plus the Miss Sporty silver. The NYC polish was an old one, but it still went on well, although I really should buy a new one!
I'm giving my nails a break right now, but I think next I will try Jane at Nailside's heavy layering experiment.
