Candy Nails

I was feeling creative yesterday so decided to think outside the box and paint my nails a bit different. They reminded me of candy floss and I just think they're a nice way to brighten up these rainy days. 

The first thing I did was paint the entire nail with one coat of Fiji by Essie, then apply two more coats to the left side of the nail (or right side, which ever you prefer). The one coat over the entire nail gives a nice base/primer for any other colours I use. 

I then painted the other side of the nail in Sinful Colour's 24/7. 

I finished the nails by putting a stripe of glitter down the centre, I used a H&M polish in Jo Is In The House, and then applied a clear topcoat.

  

I thought they were pretty easy to do, so if you're in a creative mood give this look a go and let me know how yours turned out.

My New Found Favourite Nail Polish

So last week sometime I put up a Boots haul and one of the products I bought was a nail polish. I had found a brand which sold nail polishes for £1.99 and I bought two of them, a pink one and a cranberry type colour. I wasn't expecting much from them as they were only cheap, but I have since tried the pink which is in the shade 24/7 and I've pictured it below.

The picture actually doesn't show how bright this pink is. It's coming off more baby pink rather than the neon that it is. I was actually so impressed with this that I thought I'd put it in a post.

The colour isn't opaque as I'd like but I found 3 coats of it gave me the opaque effect I wanted. It also dries matte, so if that's a look you like this is a good one for that, if not just a top coat would solve the issue. 

All in all this colour is amazing, its such a nice pop of pink (I know it's more of a summer colour, but hey who cares). If you get chance to look at the Sinful Colours range in Boots definitely do because they have such an array of shades and colours to choose from. Really really love these!

Have you tried any from this brand?
