Hello I'm back! I've not been posting regulary this month but I have been crazy busy! I have so many things in mind I can't even spend some time relaxing doing nail art. Despite all the work from uni and my job and singing I found some time to finally start reviewing all the products Born Pretty Store sent me last month.
The first product I will be reviewing is a set of nail art brushes. I painted an intracate lace design inspired by Finger Painted using all these brushes and they were perfect.

Neon Summer Time Floral
Hey lovelies! My exams are nearly over me and my family as you know are going through a rough time. Things don't seem to be improving, and they don't think they will even improve. We must stay together and strong but it's hard to be focusing on such things like nail art. However I need some me time and painting my nails helps me to disconnect.
Today I'm showing you my most recent floral design. The weather here this week has been terrible and I need to feel it's really spring and not just a continuation of winter so I'm going floral these last days.

Neutral Sophistication
However last night to disconnect a bit I did this delicate floral design over one of my neutral OPI polishes 'Did you 'ear about Van Gogh?'. I hope you like it.

Nail-Art-A-Go-Go Challenge - Day 2: Jewel Tones
Hello guys! It's Thursday and this means that I bring a new design for the Nail-Art-A-Go-Go Challenge. I finished my classes today and that means I'm officially on holiday. I am going to celebrate it tonight going out with my uni friends, let's party.
The theme for today's mani was jewel tones. Honestly at first I had no idea what this meant. After searching for som pictures I found out the obvious. I decided to pick some jewel tones and make little gems on my nails.

Bloody Drippin'
Hey guys! It's been a while... I keep getting stuff from university and I really don't have free time to do my nails and even less to post here. But I have a little surprise, I have decided to take small break from the 31 day challenge, which I have nearly finished, to dedicate this week to HALLOWEEN!
The first design I'll be posting is a typical drip mani, perfect for halloween and perfect for beginners! Bloody...........awesome right? Just kiding!

OK, so now I'm going to get a bit emotinal. Red dripping mani was in fact the first ever nail art design I did. I used a toothpick and I don't even have a decent photo of it! What a long journey have I done right?
I managed to find the perfect colors, my favorite nude and the bloodiest red I own, both from Essence.
I hope you liked this mani and you try it yourselves, you will find a wonderful tutorial on Lindsey's blog, aka Wondrously Polished. I am planing for at least two more halloween designs for this week. I hope you are looking forward to them because I am. Happy polishing!

Apples Tutorial
Today I will be showing you how to make the complete Apple fruity fruity! mani. So let’s get the show started!
Little Apples:
1. Use your favorite base coat and apply a netral/nude base color for your design. I chose my favorite nude Cookies and Cream by Essence.
2. With a thin brush, dotting tool or even tooth pick, draw little apple shapes on your nail. You can use any color: green, red… Start with the top of the shape, like you were going to draw a heart and then make it rounder at the end, like this you will create a litte apple.
3. Fill every nail with little apples in all the directions you want.
4. With a brown polish make the little tails. Just curve them to a side or another, you can’t do this wrong.
5. Take a green polish for the leaf. With a brush or dotting tool just make a dot and slide the brush to the tail of the apple to create the shape of the leaf. don’t worry if it isn’t perfect it’s just a leaf. If you accidentali went over the brown polish don’t worry just go over the brown again to cover the green. In fact I did this on all the apples to give them a cleaner look.
6. Apply your favorite top coat and you have finished! It’s time to show off this cute design perfect for spring.
To make your design a bit more interesting you can add an accent nail. On my ring finger I did a hole apple just to break a bit with the design so it wouldn’t be the same. Here you have how to make this accent nail.
Accent nail:
1. Start with a naked nail. You should a apply a base coat to protect your natural nails. Mine is already stained, problems of a polisholic.
2. With a thin brush or dotting tool, life before we will draw the shape of a heart. It doesn’t have to be symmetrical. Remember it’s an apple and they aren’t perfect. Just be careful you leave plenty of space for the details (tail and leaf)
3. Fill in the apple. Just as befor you can do the apple any color. I used Feme Fatal by Essence.
4. Pick the same brown polish you used for your little apples and draw the tail, curving it to one side.
5. Use any green for the leaf, I used Not A Greenager by Catrice. Rememer it’s the same technique as before: dot and slide until you touch the tail. Here you can also go over the brown to cover any green you got there by accident.
6. Add you favorite top coat and this gorgeous apple is ready to rock.
I hope you try this design and let me see if you do. Don't forget to share, like and comment if you have any questions or suggestions. Happy polishing!
