Hello Everyone!

Another nail post today were I have a trick for creating polka dot nails easily with something you probably already have in your make up bag.

1. I use an old felt tip liquid eyeliner brush and I have cleaned and dried throughly, Simply snip the pointy end off with a scissors leaving me with a flat felt tip base.

2. Then I cover a plate in clingfilm (clear plastic wrap) and drip some nail varnish onto the plate. Get your eyeliner brush and lightly dip it into the nail varnish - careful not to put too much nail varnish on the brush or it will create blobs not dots.
3. I used four differant colors for this look, so I dipped so cotton wool in nail varnish remover and cleaned the top of the brush between colors.
4. It is important to take your time with this look and try and leave 2-3mins between each new color. 

Top Tip: Do not apply clear nail varnish for at least two after applying the dots are it may smudge and run, ruining the look

Then nail varnishes I used for this look were:

Base; Sally Hansen - Pink Slip

Purple: Catrice - Heavy Metallilac

Orange: Catrice -Fred said Red

Red: Rimmel - Double Decker Red

Heavy Metalliiac

So, for my first post I thought I would do nails. Nails are a relativity new thing for me. I recently stopped biting my nails. I know its a dirty habit, that is incredibly hard to break. But it was so worth it! I now for the first time in my life have lovely long (kinda!) nails that I paint a different color nearly everyday. So as you can imagine my bank balance has taken quiet a hit of recent due to my new nail polish addiction.

The latest additions to my collection were bought last Saturday in Penneys (or Primark). The base colour is by Catrice and is called Heavy Metalliac (say that ten times fast), its a beautiful metallic purple with amazing coverage, it only requires one coat. I think this is really good considering its €2.79 price tag. Also as an added bonus it dries really quickly.

I also added a top coat to my nails, the top coat is by Essense. It is called Circus Confetti. Its a multi colored  glitter nail polish that requires about two coats to get the coverage in the photo below. Although I'm new to nail polish I think that is not bad. This costs €2.59 and is available from Essense stands.

This the finished look. I also added a top coat (NYC In a New York Minute) to seal everything together.

Thank you for reading this. Leave a comment below if you would like me to do a post on how I stopped biting my nails or any other questions you have about this look.
