Leopard Nails

I found these pictures in my photobucket. They were actually taken before I began blogging and I never got round to putting them up.

This is one of my favourite bangles, I've had it a while now so I've no idea where I got it from.

I did nails to match

It's basically a white base coat, blobs of different colours from polishes which I can't remember - using the brush from the bottle - no special application, then Konad SP Black with plate M57 on top.

In other news, I broke a nail.

Right down to the smile line. I don't like nail art on really, really short nails so you might not be seeing a lot of me in the next few days, not until it they grow back enough to look normal again. I have really small hands and short fingers so short (reeeeeeeeally short) nails do not suit me at all, my hands look really childlike and I don't like it. I haven't had nails this short since I was a nail biter 10 years ago.

I have recently taken delivery of some nail art display wheels so I'm sorting out my entire collection of nail polish. I got 10 nail wheels and each have 18 'nails' on them and they're not enough so that means that I have many more bottles of nail varnish than I first thought. I'm now waiting for more to come through the post. I'm also trying to get some decent photos of the ones I've done so I can put some comparisons and swatches up but I'm having difficulty getting my camera to pick up colours accurately, I'm a bit of a perfectionist so this is doing my head in. I might have to ask my dad to see if I can borrow his posh camera.

P.S. I'm now on twitter and have no idea how to use it! You can find me at http://twitter.com/Bee_Nails

Pink Leopard Print

Well Tangerine Queen didn't last long. I ended up getting ink on it from a leaky pen so I had to remove it. I was going to leave my nails bare for the night because I had something planned for the next day but then I made plans and I don't leave the house without painted nails, lol.

This was a quick one (so not very neat), Collection 2000 Hoola Hoop and Konad M57 in Nails Inc Strawberry Vale, no top coat as it was for one night only.

Lace Hold Ups

First I started with a base colour of Leighton Denny Brief Encounter

I love the colour it's a very pale taupe/nude with a subtle shimmer to it. Very fast drying and I had full coverage with just two coats.

I konaded the lace and hold up from Konad M57 in Konad SP White
It's a shame it covered up the shimmer from Brief Encounter. I know Leighton Denny wouldn't approve I've heard he doesn't like nail art but I think it's pretty.

My thumb looks huge in these pictures. It's not that big in real life, really!
