New Nail Stuff!


Why hello there, readers! I decided to share some lovely new nail goodies with you all this week. Next post will be another design though - be patient! Anyway, first up are my new Models Own Nail Art pens in black and white. My nail pen collection was in desperate need of a restock, and as I've heard such rave reviews about these particular ones, I'm expecting great designs from them. I'll let you know what I think! 


The other little addition to my rather extensive collection of all things nails is this fabulous glitter kit that was kindly given to me free when I purchased the pens. And you never say no to free nail supplies! I don't normally use glitter much just as it takes so long to remove, but I'm still looking forward to trying this kit out. Also, the kit even comes with a really pretty pink polish - named 'Dinky Pinky' - which is always useful too! Check back soon for my next design :)

Eyeballs


Happy New Year, folks! Wow, I can't quite believe that 2014 is well and truly here. Hope it's a good one for all of you. Anyway, welcome to my first post - and design - of 2014. I thought it was a little appropriate as quite a few people may have woken up after New Year's Eve with their eyes looking something like this. Some of you who might still be partying six days later may still have eyes like this. So, here's how to create the design yourself; start with a white base colour. Next, use a blue Nail Art pen to draw the iris (but feel free to use green, brown, purple etc.), and keep your hand steady in order to get a neat circle. Once this has dried completely, use a black Nail Art pen to draw the pupil over the top. After that part is dry, pop a tiny white dot over the pupil for the reflection spot - but make sure that the pen nib itself doesn't touch the nail. Finally, take your red Nail Art pen to draw blood vessels around the edge, working from the outside inwards. And there you have it! Give them a go, and keep watching for more designs to follow :)
