Mani of the Week: Pretty in Pink ft Essie!

Hi my lovelies,

We’re back after a loooong time for another Mani of the Week post! It’s been a super long time since I posted one of these, partly because my nails needed a serious rest from all the polish, and  then exam and work stress came along and I bit all of my lovely nails off! A real bad habit I know, but we all have our vices!

Now it’s spring, and I’m feeling great (apart from having serious laryngitis) so I decided to go bright and colourful for my nails this time around! 20160424_141031

I used my regular Rimmel base coat, and then a new shade I picked up from my local TK Maxx: The Lace Is On from Essie.

Mani of the week: Ice-Cream inspired pastel Nails!

Hey everyone!

This post is a little late this week, partly because I loved last week’s nails so much that I kept the polish on for a little longer! The other reason is that I was way too excited about my first Look Incredible beauty box, so I wrote that post first! You can check out my thoughts on that one HERE for the blog post and HERE for the video!

I’m looking forward to spring, so this week’s nails were pastel and ice-cream inspired! I used a mix of mint green, lilac and cornflower blue polishes, and the end effect is really lovely!

Gorgeous glittery Ciate mani of the week!

Hi everyone, as you know, I’m a fanatic about great beauty products!

So I thought I’d share this week’s mani with all of you!

What I used:
1) Rimmel nail nurse base/top coat – I used this as a Base coat first, to strengthen my nails and help the Polish stay for longer.
2) Ciate Paint pot in Pocket Money. This is a gorgeous nudey-tone with a hint of pink for a great ‘your nails but better’ colour!
3) Ciate paint pot in Tinsel Town. A beautiful sparkly glitter polish with silver, pink tones and a hint of pastel green. I used this polish on alternating nails for a luxe and more high end look.
4) Rimmel nail nurse again, as a top coat for my nails. It not only helps the glitter polish stay for much longer without flaking off, it stops the polish from chipping for absolutely ages and gives a gorgeous sheen!
