Trying Something New



I thought that it was about time to try out this midi ring craze that's going on! I got this from River Island, FOR TWO POUNDS MIGHT I ADD! Which I thought was a bargain and can't really go wrong if I don't like it!
At the moment, I'm not quite sure. I think maybe I chose the wrong one, I'm going to try some plain band ones and see but I think they make my crooked fingers look worse!


I also thought I'd try out Barry M Textured Nail Effects, I chose the Kingsland Road colour because it matches the top that I got for my first day at my new job, which you can see in the background. That's right, new job, new top, everything new! The job is at new look, which means 50% off everything, yay! My poor bank account...
I'm not entirely sure how I feel about this textured effect. The ends smooth out a bit, as you can see in the picture, which is a bit annoying and sometimes it catches. I think personally I prefer nice thick and smooth nail varnish!

You can get the above things I have mentioned here


Hope you all have a great weekend!

Pink Zodiac Constellation

Left to Right:
Barry M Nail Paint - Baby Pink and Strawberry IceCream. Natural Collection - White Tip. Nails by Topshop -  Tingle. Front - Unknown. Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine Nail Paint - Papaya and Prickly Pear.



I created the base coat with a light pink shimmer varnish and then sponged the various pink/purple colours over the top of that. 






I did these for Nail Pornography's Zodiac 'NOTW' competition, so if you see this in time - please vote!
Thank you
