GEOMETRIC NAILS WITH ILLAMASQUA PARANORMAL & TUTORIAL

Hey guys, how are you all? I have a day off today I feel ill, my throat is red, sore and hurting and I have an earache and a headache, not that I'm complaining ;( 
So here are some nails I forgot to post!
I love geometric nails and was in the mood recently, I decided to use 2 of the polishes from the Illamasqua Paranormal collection, I used Omen and Seance and used black acrylic paint for all the detail. It's really easy to do and I've included a tutorial after the break if you want to recreate this :)

WIP BANDEAU & OPI PURE

Hi my beautiful friends, how was your weekend? It went so fast for me, well I guess my weekend started today but still it's gone too fast! Anywho I dyed my hair red today and I love it! It's not a fire engine red it's  just lovely, it is a bit patchy and I have a random pink bit but it still looks good, well at least I think so, haha!
So today I shall be showing you some simple nails. I received this beautiful purple polish by WIP (which is sold in Urban Outfitters) from Sarah, actually both of the polishes I used for these nails were sent to me by Sarah. I decided to add one coat of OPI Pure which is an 18K White Gold and Silver Leaf Top Coat. 





I love this combination, do you own OPI Pure?

ILNP MULTICHROME 3D CUBE NAIL ART


Hey everybody, how was your Saturday? I spent my whole day in uni today working on a poster which is part of our coursework, thankfully we got it all done and now I'm really tired! But I'm dying my hair red tomorrow, I'm so excited and nervous too, fingers crossed it all works out!
Ok, so I'm glad you liked my last nails, when I did the cube detail it took me about 45 minutes to paint and I didn't want to waste the end result haha, so I used ILNP Birefringence, Mutagen and Cygnus Loopy to fill in some of the other cubes so I ended up with these lovely multichrome cubes :)

ILNP NOSTALGIA 3D CUBE NAIL ART

Hey guys, so I had a day off today which means I've managed to catch up on some zzz's, the bad thing is I keep thinking today is Friday and then when I realise it's Wednesday I'm left disappointed! 
Anywho I remember seeing these nails by the super talented Lucy and I fell in love with the 3d cube accent design and I couldn't wait to recreate them! 
I already had ILNP Nostalgia on and I thought multichrome 3d cubes would just look awesome and using this tutorial this is what I came up with! I coloured the white faces of cube incorrectly so they don't look as awesome as Lucys but I still love them :)

RAINBOW STRAW DIPPED NAILS

Hey guys, I'm so sleepy today and I just feel so drained even though I haven't been doing anything strenuous! 
Anywho remember these nails I did, well this was my practice run before hand in which I learnt you shouldn't use too many different colours with the technique I think it looks much better when you use fewer colours like I did on the other nails. I used Sally Hansen Whirlwind White as a base and then used 6 different nail polishes for the details, I'm too tired to list all those nail polishes now but if you want to know then leave a comment and I shall let you know :) I finally topped it all with a layer of OPI Matte Top Coat.







Ok, so that's a wrap for today, I shall see you in my next post :)

ILNP NOSTALGIA

Hey guys, I had a rubbish morning today, my train was delayed and then it was terminated at a random station and then I couldn't get to uni in time for my session today and so didn't end up going and then had to wait and then finally I got home! I should have stayed in bed, *sigh* Hope you had a better day than me :) 
Ok, so you guys know how much I love the ILNP Ultra Chromes and when Nostalgia was released despite how beautiful it looked I convinced myself I didn't need it because I already had Sally Hansen Amber Ruby which I thought was a dupe. However this beauty then popped up in a Facebook polish selling group and I snapped it up, and wow it's gorgeous :)
 I used two coats but it dried quite slowly, actually I find all the Ultra Chromes to dry quite slowly. 





















Have you guys bought this? If you haven't you need to !
