Halloween Spider Nail Art

Finally had time to heave a play with a Halloween design!
There is some bad news unfortunately, well bad for the claw lovers, the claws are gone *sobs*  I broke the index one and there was no chance of a repair. I am back to nubbs now but that may please some of the claw haterz lol!

I am not hating the short nails as much as I thought I would. Its nice to have a change!

 For more info and pictures, as always, join me after the break! (I love saying that as it makes me feel like a TV presenter!)

Suzi's Hungary Again with Glitter Zebra Nail Art

Hello my lovelies! Are you all having a great week?
Its nearly time for my son to start school for the very first time so I am feeling a bit stressed here.

Today I have another simple nail art for you! A bit of zebra, an untried OPI and a glitter nail art pen are the focus of today's post.

More after the jump! 

Dance Legend Thermal 175

WOW.
I love this thermal. Thermals are polishes that react with heat and change colour. If your nails are long enough you may be able to get a beautiful ombre effect!

Dance Legend 175 is a deep purple that changes to an orangey/pink red when warm. It is quite reactive and the colours are quite different so the change is very noticeable. It doesn't have to get really cold to change to you do get the see the dark purple quite a bit which is great.

The shimmer really makes this polish stand out, it makes it different from a lot of other indie thermals which have big, chunky glitter.

The formula is great. Only 2 coats needed. Pictures show 2 coats with topcoat.

I will admit something embarrassing now... I have a macro lens for my IPhone (Yes I use an IPhone for my pics) I have been using said macro lens wrong. Instead of using the macro I have been using the  wide angle lens... DUH!
Now I have figured it out I can do lovely up close images yay!

I added a little floral accent using a Vamp striper brush and white acrylic paint. I then added some diamantes to add some glitz.

I hope you love this as much as I do. This is my type of thing!

I won this polish in a giveaway run by Nail Stickrs. This came from Rainbow Connection but you can also buy direct.

Tongue in Chic Stamping

Hello my lovelies! 

Today we have some more stamping! 

As you may well already know I am a big fan of nail stamping. With just a bit of practice you can achieve very good results.

I had the mother in law around today so I showed her how stamping works using China Glaze Tongue in Chic and Konad Special polish in White.

 The paisley design is from the Happy Nails Jumbo Plate by Cheeky

Tongue in Chic is a gorgeous deep shimmery green which is a one coater! It screams winter to me and I think this is going to be a regular this year. 

I am having a right mare with my photos recently.I think the key is to just keep trying LOL and one day after a lot of practice and messing around they will be amazeballs! I even have an AS level in Photography, not much good that does!

What do you think about stamping? Are you a fan?

Austin-Tatious Turquoise

 This is OPI's Austin-Tatious Turquoise. From the Texas Collection. 

A sheer shimmering blue. This is three coats. As you can see it is still not completely opaque but with 4 coats it would have been completely opaque. Next time i think ill layer it over a blue base to cut down on all the layers! 

As you can see its very shimmery and its a lovely bright summer shade.

 

I purchased this from +Fragrance Direct at the very good price of £3.99! You can get it HERE

China Glaze Fuchsia

Lumos Bottom and Top Coat

2x Fuchsia

Such a bright summer colour, i can see this being used in ALOT of my nail art this summer. Opaque in 2 coats and goes on like a dream.

It has a ever so slight shimmer,but i wouldn't call it a shimmer polish.

Well it is China Glaze!!
