Pink Wednesday

I've got a Pink Wednesday for you today. I'm really getting back into the blogging swing of things, it's a shame summer's nearly over though! I'm back to school in 2 weeks, I'm excited though, looking forward to working in the spa and doing (and getting) full body massages (YES PLEASE), not excited about the early mornings though. :P

Anyway on to the nails, just a simple one for this pink Wednesday. I have Barry M Fuchsia as my base colour and BM20 stamped with Barry M Gold Foil. My nails are a bit to big for this stamp, so I just stamped it in the centre of each nail and left a bit of pink on each side, I think it makes my nails look slimmer, haha!

Going Dotty

Hey! I'm stuck in bed with such a terrible cold, this is why I hate winter! It needs to be sunny and hot all year round, yeah I definitely need to move... Anyway, time for my Pink Wednesday post which I think is super cute, although I might be a little bias ;) The tips are Barry M Fuchsia with some neon pink Miss Sporty polish on top, then I used Konad Special white polish with BM-19.

French Tips and Fake Tattoos

Hey! I forgot to take a picture of this particular mani but luckily I managed to find a shot of it from a night out a week ago. My friend somehow won some fake tattoos so drunk me put a few on, so I'm afraid the only picture I have has a fake tattoo on my wrist, which I find rather amusing! I just love the lips on my nail, so cute!

Obscure picture is obscure.

I promise you'll actually be able to see my nails properly in my next post! 

Gold With A Side Of Injury

Hey! Just a quick post today, as I am currently only able to use my left hand to type, thanks a lovely big burn on my right hand/wrist, which makes typing sooooooooo slow! I used Accessorize Cinder Rose, Barry M Foil Gold and BM-204. And once again I really need to stop taking photos at night and relying on my crap flash...

Bandaged up, sore arm :( 

My First Pink Wednesday In Ages...

Hey! I have't done a Pink Wednesday in ages, oops! I blame college and not being able to wear nail polish there :( With this mani I started off with Barry M Strawberry Ice Cream, then sponged Barry M Bright Pink and Revlon Bubble Gum to make a nice little gradient effect. I put a nameless Bourjois glitter on the tips too, because I love me some glitter! I also used Barry M Silver Foil with BM-223. I really need to stop taking my pictures in the evening, I end up having to use flash which is completely PANTS and you can't see the details clearly!

Snake Print?

Hey! I can't believe I haven't posted in over a week! I'm such a bad blogger! Today I have a snake print mani. Well I think it looks a bit like snake print, my sister disagrees though :P First I started off with MissGuided Missbehave, then sponged on Gosh Wild Lilac and Barry M Bright Purple. I stamped BM-215 with Barry M Gold Foil on top and used a matte top coat. Hope you like it. :)

Rainbow Animals

Hey! Today I have a post inspired by the amazing Cristina at Let Them Have Polish, if you haven't checked out her blog yet you really have to! Of course, mine looks no where near as amazing as hers, but I tried! I used BM-221 and BM-223 with Konad Special Polish, but I don't remember all the colours I used. :P

Happy Halloween!

Hey everyone! I hope you all having a greet Halloween and have been dressing up! Unfortunately I'm suck in bed with a migraine, so no Halloween for me, boo! But I did go to a Halloween party on Saturday, so I'll post a picture of me in my little outfit as well as my Halloween nails. :P

This mani is my first splatter I've successfully done, so I'm pretty happy with the results, but I did feel pretty breathless after all that blowing, haha that sounds totally wrong but I don't mean it like that! :P I used Barry M White, Bourjois Rouge Escarpin as the blooooooood and BM-12 for the chains with Konad Black polish.

And here's me in my Halloween costume, I'm a dead bride. My husband killed me, how rude! 

Zig Zag

I always decide to take pictures of my nails at really bad times... like at midnight. I don't remember what brand the red polish is, my friend painted them in manicure class, training to be a beauty therapist has it perks :P But the red looked a bit plain on it's own so I spruced it up by using the amazing Barry M Instant Effect Gold Foil, which is AMAZING for stamping as you can probably tell, for stamping BM-201.

Purple and Silver

Hey! Kinda loving this mani, even with my shorter than short nails, and loving how amazing well the Barry M Instant Effect Foil polishes stamp! I can tell I'll be using them all the time! Although I do wish the gold one was more of a gold colour... Anyway, the purple is NYC Prince Street (which is my favourite purple polish evah), used Barry M Instant Effect silver foil and the BM-212 plate.

Bulletproof

Hey! I have a bit of a weird mani today. I don't really do yellow nails (apart from their natural yellow stained colour :p) but I saw this mani on a blog (don't remember which one) ages ago and have been meaning to try it out ever since. They look a bit like gunshots, right? Because that's what I was going for, haha. The yellow is an unnamed Miss Sporty polish (I have said it a thousand times, but Miss Sporty NAME YOUR POLISHES!), the black and white are the standard Konad stamping polishes and the plate is BM-202.

Smelling Of Roses

Hey! Two posts in two days, aren't you guys lucky ;) I've had such an obsession with grey nail polish recently, I just feel like that's the only polish that looks good on my short nails. I don't know why but when I look at this mani I think of Quentin Tarantino, which is a bit weird. The grey is an unnamed H&M polish, the pink is Revlon Bubble Gum (which is scented) and I stamped BM14 with White Konad Special Nail Polish.

Cute As Cupcakes

I can't believe I haven't posted in a month! It makes me sad! The reason I haven't posted in aaaaaaaages is because I started a college course and I'm doing beauty therapy! Which is pretty excited, but I'm not allowed to have my nails painted and my nails have to be kept short :( So I haven't really bothered with my nails and when I did do them I never took a picture of them. I have a few manis to upload over the next few days though, gotta get into the blogging swing again :)

The purple is Gosh Wild Lilac, the plate is BM14 stamped with White Konad Special Nail Polish and the cute little pink gems are from ebay.

The cupcakes match my pyjamas! :D

Don't Get Lippy With Me

Hey! As soon as I saw the lips on my new BM plates I knew I needed a silver mani with red lips! I wish my nails were long/the lips were smaller so I could fit more than one lip on each nail, when my nails are longer I'm so going to be doing this mani again! The polishes I used were Barry M Silver and Red Konad Special Nail Polish with BM-02.

Leopard Obsessed

Hey everyone! I'm a bit obsessed with leopard print at the moment, so I have another leopard print mani to show you, haha :P I was lacking inspiration so I took inspiration from here. The polishes I used were Berry Ice Cream and Blueberry Ice Cream both by Barry M, then used Black Konad Special Nail Polish to stamp BM-221.

Mixed Up

Hey! Yesterday my mum, sister and I went to the Zoo (which was super fun) so I decided I needed animal print nails for the Zoo. I had no idea what kind of animal print to do though, so as I was googling to get some ideas I saw this mani and I just knew I needed to do my nails like it!

For the gradient I started off with 2 coats of MissGuided  MissBehave, which I got free in a Cosmo magazine years ago but have never actually used it, then I sponged some Barry M Berry Ice Cream diagonally and finished it off with sponging Rimmel Aqua Cool on top. The plates I used for the stamping is BM-221 (leopard) and BM-223 (zebra) with Black Konad Special Nail Polish.

One Of Those Days...

Do you ever have one of those days where stamping just doesn't go right? Well today I had one of those days, I had to stamp all my nails like 3 times and even now I'm not happy with the results but I've given up for the day as it's far to frustrating, espically as my stamping was so perfect the other day. The blue is Barry M Blueberry Ice Cream, the yellow is a nameless Miss Sporty (NAME YOUR POLISHES!!!) and then I stamped BM-224 with Konad Special Nail Polish in black.

Wild Pink Wednesday

Hey! So today I have for you some leopard print nails with french tips on top! I'm kind of loving them apart from I broke a nail as soon as I had finished! Such bad luck, it makes me so sad and now one of my nails looks weird :( The pink is NYC Fashion Ave Fuchsia, which is sooo pretty! Then I used plate BM-221 and stamped it with Black Konad Special Nail Polish, the tips are also that colour.

OMG, I'm such an idiot, I wrote this post on Wednesday and forgot to publish it, oops!

Pink Wednesday, Yo

Really quick post. My nails look super gross, I really should have cleaned up better! The pink is Collection 2000 Siren, the white and black are Konad Special Nail Polish and the stamp is BM-223.

I'll upload a better picture tomorrow when I'm not under the influence of alcohol. 

Floral Pink Wednesday, So Fetch

I can't believe I haven't posted since Saturday, how lame is that! I've been ill and haven't had the energy to do my nails, but I'm feeling a bit better now, so I have my Pink Wednesday mani for you! It's another floral number, I love me some floral.

The base colour is Barry M Fuchsia, I never really use this polish as I don't really like the colour in the bottle, I've had it for over a year and used it like once, but now it's on my nail I actually love the colour, I'll definitely be using it more often. The pink I used for stamping is White and Red Konad Special Polish mixed together, clever or what! I used BM-221 and it has to be one of my favourite BM plates.

I'm currently really undecided on whether to have this mani matte or not. I have one hand matte and the other glossy and I just can't decide which I prefer! The pictures posted are both with the matte topcoat, I couldn't manage to take a picture of my other hand without the matte, damn my flash being uncooperative! So what do you think, shall I leave it matte or make it glossy?
