Leopards never change their spots. Or nail polish.

Actually I'm not a leopard so I did change my nail polish. I just needed something sort of witty to put as a title. I failed, but yeah. I mean, leopards can't type, right? Their claws would get stuck in the keyboard *shifty eyes*

So anyway. This is none other than a BARRY M NAIL PAINT in Cyan Blue (I'm really sorry guys, I have no idea why I keep reaching for these...) and the orange is a franken. It looked slightly darker in real life (the orange, I mean) but not a lot. It was a pretty poor franken in all honesty but it's nearly finished now (I didn't make much, yey) so I can reuse the bottle for bigger and better things. World domination! w00t.
If you're in the UK - How is your bank holiday Monday going? Anyone doing anything nice? I only have less than a week before I go back to school. Boo. GCSE'S and a new tyrannical head of year. Do not want.

Pink/Green leopard print.

This is Barry M's Mint Green (you guys must think they're sponsoring me lol, they're not :P) with that awesome generic hot pink splodged somewhat halfhazardly over the surface. It doesn't look hot in this picture but it is way more awesome in real life. I quite like leopard prints and zebra prints because it's quite difficult to go wrong with them, even when you're using your non-dominant hand (which is, in this case, my left trying to paint my right). You simply dab the brush on the nail polish and paint around it with a different colour using a striper or a toothpick.
I'm thinking this would make an interesting pedicure. Hmm. Has anyone out there done anything similar? I know there is a Konad plate with a similar effect, has anyone used that? Let us know.

Yet More Sellotape

It's back...

This is all Barry M Nail Paints (I seem to be using these a lot lately. *shrugs*) From the bottom - Bright Purple, Cyan Blue, Spring Green. What I did with this was to put a smallish strip of sellotape on the nail after I'd put a basecoat on then just paint around it, peel it off and paint on the bare nail left behind. Cyan Blue was good for that because it's pretty much opaque with one coat so I didn't need to go over it and run the risk of screwing everything up :D

Oh man, I love the summer holidays. Even though it's been raining non-stop for most of it. Pah.
How have your holidays been?

Freebies at the Body Shop!

So I was at the Body Shop a couple of days ago. Well, not at, really. We were walking past the Body Shop in the shopping centre actually. Anyway, a nice lady holding a body shop bag offers these little tubs of sample body creams to us and says we should take them away and try them...hey, who passes up a freebie?

Isn't it dinky? Everybody, together now: awwww!

Smells divine, as well. Haven't had a chance to use it properly yet but it seems nice and thick.
There's about enough for a couple of uses. Anyone else found this?

I would explain myself but I can't.

Nope. Can't explain myself :P I just felt  like drawing over my nails halfhazardly with nail polish pens. I liked the effect though, bright and rave-like.
 My black one has thickened up and now is virtually useless, though, which irritates me -.- I don't really want to pay £10 or so pounds again for a whole new set just for the black one. Hmm.

Sellotape experiments

Hey guys. So what I did with this was I put a base coat on then cut out triangles of sellotape on and stuck them onto my fingernails. I painted the tips blue with Barry M Cyan Blue and the middle bit is an MUA polish. Shade Three, I think, not entirely sure :P And the yellow is just a nail art pen. Hmm. This looked better in my head :P
As you guys can see, the purple is kind of jelly. It weirdly looks more of a plum on my camera but it is slightly more blue toned in real life. *ponders*

Love,

19+?

Mermaid starfish mermaid starfish. Only the one on my thumb hasn't got a bikini top on :) Cheeky.
No, in all seriousness I just forgot. And then I remembered, and I put two blobs of nail polish on the one that you see above ^ but quite frankly the damage had been done. MWAHAHAHA.

And yes, my black mermaids do have long blonde hair. Don't ask me to explain myself because I can't :P Ever done something and thought, "Nah, screw it, can't be bothered to fix it?" Let us know :)
