Daisy chains



Hello beautifuls
Today's post is going to be another nail tutorial as I got a really good response from the last one and you all really seemed to enjoy it , so I thought I would share with you this cute daisy design which is lovely for summer Hope you enjoy xoxoxo

You will need
A base colour of your choice
Top & bottom coat (top coat is essential)
Acrylic paints which you can get from any craft shop
A dotting tool or a cocktail stick

Acrylic paints are the best thing to use for nail art as they are water soluble which means if you make a mistake you can wipe it off with a wet cotton pad :)
Paint your nails the base colour of your choice and put too little blobs of paint that you want your flowers to be 
Applu four small dots along the top of your nail depending on how big your nail is using your dotter or cocktail stick
Apply 4/5 dots around the one you placed in the middle to create the daisy look


You can do it on all of your nails or just 1/2 ... it also looks great on toes  most importantly make sure you apply a top coat so your daisys dont come off :)

And here is the final look , i used maxfactor intense plum for my base colour

Lush review

So I recently took a trip to my nearest Lush store (which isn't so near) and had a little splurge , I have always heard good things about there bubble bars but have only ever bought a bath fizzer , I was impressed to find that the bubble bar can last for around 4 baths (as I thought they only did 1) and was even more impressed to find that I got 7 baths out of mine , I also indulged in buying one of there fresh face masks as I hate pre packed ones , I thought for ages that they were really good as I would often break out after using one and thought this was the mask clearing out my pores but realised that it was actually just my skin reacting to all the crappy chemicals , I must say I love there face mask but with it only lasting 3 weeks (because it's fresh) you really have to use it twice a week because there's just so much product , I also bought one of there solid shampoo bars but I will be doing a separate blog post on that because it defiantly deserves it , anyway here's some pictures of my lush products I wanted to share with you .Enjoy




The Lush comforter bar

The Caviar Manicure


Hello beauties

I recently came across the new craze that's sweeping the nail'oholic nation called ''The Caviar Manicure'' it is where tiny little beads are placed on the nail to create a 3d look , the manicure was created by the make Ciate and looks so elegant and beautiful that it was a must buy , while doing a quick search through Google i found that the price of the kit started at £18 and goes all the way to £38. If you thought that was bad i then also discovered that the manicure only lasts around 2 days ! Shocking price if i do say so myself , so if you read my posts often enough i bet you can guess where i ended up ...yup that's right the beloved Ebay and found almost identically beads for a small fortune of £1.89 and double the range of colours you can see them HERE





You will need:
Caviar beads of your choice
Nail polish similar to the colour of the beads
A top Coat
A small plastic tray or bowl


I chose a mixture of colours 

This is the nail polish colour i chose to go with my beads apply a thin layer of nail polish over each of you nails 

Then apply a second coat but only doing 1  nail at a time once you have applied the second coat pour the beads over the wet nail and VERY gently push the beads into the polish 

Once you have done every nail apply a topcoat to the tips of all your nails just to seal in the beads 


Hope you enjoyed this nail post let me no if any of you try it :)
