Tri-Polish Challenge -APRIL!

Today is the last day of this months Tri-Polish Challenge! Can I hear an "Awwww" ha!

I decided to do my most difficult manicure yet, using my dotting tools I hauled a little while ago. This consists of the turquoise (OPI Can't Find My Czechbook) base with pink (OPI Kiss Me On My Tulips) and orange (Barry M Web Effects Orange) flowers. The "vine" connecting them was done in Revlon ColourStay Stiletto.



This manicure took me maybe 30 minutes to get it how I wanted it, but I am so pleased!

On my other hand (which I didn't photograph) I just did the "vine" with pink buds, as I knew I would muck up if I tried to do the flowers on that hand!

That's it for this post - and the Tri-Polish Challenge for this month.
I'll be posting again tomorrow, but come back next month for May's Tri-Polish Challenge!

P.S I know the pictures aren't great, the focus on my camera isn't good.

Tri-Polish Challenge - APRIL!

Today, Tuesday, I'm showing maybe my least favourite manicure in the history of this week.

This is for day 3 of the April Tri-Polish Challenge and I just feel I could have done something a lot more interesting. Admittedly I have been quite ill the past week and so I kinda didn't care what my nails looked like.
I used the same three nail polishes from the other posts this month, with Revlon ColourStay Stiletto and Barry M Matt White for the edgings. I don't know I just really don't like this one...
That's all for this post! I made a special post yesterday regarding the new babies in my house (!) so go and check that out if you like :)

Babies!!!!

So this is a different post.
It's not about nails or beauty.
It's about 5 gorgeous little ones that have made their way into my house!
For the first time in my life I've been allowed pets, and I chose to have fish!
These are the first fish I got, and they're Black Neon Tetras!
There's Billy, and Zazzles, and Cooper, and Tara and Minnie, though I can't really tell them apart... Ooops...

Anyway, this is my weird post of the week, I shall be back tomorrow with more nail posts!

Dinner Nails

I went out to dinner this past week with my family, and honestly the nails I did for that are my favourite of the week. So in this Friday post I thought I'd show you them...


 I started off with ONE COAT (two on some fingers) of Essie Mezmerised and then attempted to make a gradient with OPI OY-Another Polish Joke!

 I was very naughty and didn't use a base coat, in my defence I was on time constraints, but my topcoat was Rimmel London Pro Super Wear which actually dries quite quickly!

 Just a short post for you today, I hope you're enjoying my Tri-Polish Challenge posts and if you're in the UK I hope you're enjoying this sunshine!

 See you soon,
 Lou xoxo

Tri-Polish Challenge - APRIL!

This is the second day of this months challenge, and I'm not completely in love with today's nails...
I only used OPI Kiss Me On My Tulips and OPI Can't Find My Czechbook, along with Revlon ColourStay in Stiletto.
I actually took this off straight after I took the pictures because... well I'm going out to dinner and it wouldn't match my outfit at all. Luckily I'd only done one hand!

Just to show my newbie mess-ups:
It looks awful there! haha!

I'm actually using my brand new camera for the first time in these pictures, and it's a lot better quality than my iPod!

See you next time,
Lou xoxo

Tri-Polish Challenge - APRIL!

So this is my first time becoming involved in this challenge, and honestly I found it super super hard to find a turquoise colour in my collection!

The colours for this challenge were: pink, turquoise and orange, so I chose OPI Kiss Me On My Tulips, OPI Can't Find My Czechbook and Barry M Web Effects in Orange. My Web Effects doesn't actually work, so it's just a plain orange.

As this is my first time, I thought I'd do something simple to start off so here we go....

Yep that's literally it. A different colour on each nail. I'm that boring!

Don't worry though, for the second day (Thursday) I will be doing something ~slightly~ more interesting!

See you soon!
Lou xoxo

PS. Sorry it's so late, I've been at the doctors and busy all day!
