Life in Lacquer Nail Art Challenge: BLUE featuring Video Tutorial

Another #lifeinlacquerjuly mani. How are you all liking the challenge so far? I hope your enjoying seeing others work on my Instagram!

Ive been totally overwhelmed by all the people taking part! I thought no one would so I am sooo happy you are all joining me on this!



Today is another very broad prompt...Blue. 
I chose to get my Nail Stickrs out for this one. Maybe it would have been more suited to the Geometric prompt but oh well :)

AND theres a couple videos to accompy this too! Im getting there with the whole video thing. I still find them quite hard and awkward to film but I am getting there. 
Again these are fast so I can put them on Instagram. Do you think I should make longer versions for Youtube? 

Here is how I did the gradient.....
 

And here is how I used the Nail Stickrs to create a sponge chevron.


I hope the videos go a little way in showing you how I did this look.
I am really interested to know what you think about them so please do let me know.

For this look I used Essie Butler Please, Avenue Maintain and Sweet Talker. I also used Moyra 304 on the chevron nail. 
All of this was one ontop of a white base
And then of course it needed some bling! These beautiful metal star charms are from Effect Beauty. I love them! They are slightly curved so fit to the nail really well unlike other flat charms, plus you get a decent amount for your money.


Soooo what do you think? Please check out the other blog entries from Life in Lacquer July below!

Doc Marten Roses Inspired by Get Nailed


 I have been watching a lot of Get Nailed Videos on YouTube and I had to give this one a go!
Let me first apologise again for my crap cuticles and fingers in general :( They just are not getting better!

I used BarryM Berry Ice Cream, Vivid Purple and Bright Purple.
The leaves are OPIs Dont Mess With OPI, I also used BarryM Nail art pens in white and black to highlight them in places.

What do you think of these roses? Do you like floral manis?
