Nude spots…

Rhinestones: here

You may have seen me moaning on twitter before that it took me over an hour & a half to remove my nail varnish so that I could paint them again. I have no idea why, but the clear nail varnish (it was just a non brand cheap one) I used as a top coat was stuck to my nails like superglue & I ended up having to soak each nail in a nail varnish remover drenched cotton pad, it was a painfully slow experience O.O

But hey I managed to get it off so I could paint these lovely dots on my nails, yay! ^_^ I know they are nothing special but I really like spotty nails at the moment, they are dead easy to do, take no time at all & look really smart when they are finished, it really is a nail design for everyone, so if you are just starting out experimenting with nail art, I’d give these a go! ^_^

Espeon nails…

Black: random cheap black nail varnish

I have seen nail designs like this all over the place at the moment & have had no idea what they were actually called until a few days ago, ‘rim nails’, hmmm, not the nicest sounding name, I think maybe outline nails sounds a little better/nicer? Ah well, anyway, I wanted to try my hand at doing some ‘rim nails’ & this was my result. I didn’t actually plan on them looking anything like Espeon, it was only when I’d finished them that I noticed the resemblance ahaha.

The design itself was pretty straightforward, however, if you don’t have a steady hand, this may not be the design for you as you have to be quite careful when doing the outlines. I was planning on doing a video tutorial to show you all how I did it, what do you think? If you think you would find it helpful, let me know & I will get filming! :)

If you are a Pokémon freak like me, you will probably already know Espeon. If not you can read about them here. :) Eevee & it’s seven evolutions are my favourite Pokémon (you may have noticed my Eevee in my sidebar? ;) haha, I know I’m strange.) Ah well, #pokemon4lyf ;)
