Easy Nail Art - And sorry, it's been a while...

School work has been plaguing me guys, but I have found some time to finally get round to using my nails art brushes!


They're meant to be cherry blossom trees, not the best work in the world but for a first attempt I'm pretty happy! (You should see my other hand lol)

I did experiment a little with the brushes, but I found that using a long striper brush is the best for such designs.

Products used:

- Revlon Dark Pleasures in Midnight Affair
- White acrylic paint
- Red acrylic paint
- long striper brush (from the 13 piece set I bought on ebay)
- Sally Hansen Insta Dri Top Coat

Well, that's all from me today, see you all soon! xxx

REVIEW: Revlon Nail Polish/Varnish: 863 Ruby Ribbon and 919 Black Lingerie



Hey guys! I bought these polishes a little while ago, but only recently used them. Here's a quick review :)



919, Black Lingerie. A pretty intense black in the bottle, but on nails? It's actually a bit streaky. One thin coat and I could see the lines of my nails show through. Nevertheless, it is still very good! 2 thin coats (the way it should be done really) is great for this one, and it is a nice true black when applied. 




A nice, very opaque polish. A darker red, more like burgundy if anything. Has some nice silver shimmer to it, applies well. You could do well with just one coat of this stuff.





And here's a quick pattern I did - my first time doing it with a hairpin actually. You get a hair pin/ bobby pin and bend it so it looks like a V shape. Use one of the bobble ends to make nail varnish dots you your nail.








Overall, Revlon have a pretty go reputation for nail varnishes so I do recommend them! 
See you later guys! :)
