Manicure Tuesday? - Born Pretty Store

(Sponsored)
Hello Princesses!

Today I'm going to be showing you some super cute nail designs I created with some nail art supplies that I was sent by Born Pretty Store! I decided to post this on a Tuesday so I don't interrupt my regular posting schedule (and also because I wanted to keep posting Christmassy nails! ^.^)
I chose some very feminine water decals, gold rose studs and water droplet studs! These are very much my style of nail art supplies, and things that I will definitely use on a day to day basis for my manicures.

I love the combination of these water decals, but I hate how the horse and carriage has so little room to cut between - you would need some super long nails to fit that decal on one nail without trimming it! The carriage by itself barely fits on my widest nail!
I used Picture Polishes Tiffany for the minty green colour, and OPI's My Second Honeymoon for the pink. The decals were super easy to apply and look amazing on my nails. I put a coat of OPI's Don't Touch My Tutu over the top of the decals to create a pastely/filtered look which makes the decals look incredibly cute! The pictures make it look a little blurry, but it looks lovely in real life ^.^


The gold rose studs are chunkier than they look and tend to over whelm my small nails slightly (especially when I have short nails!), but they are absolutely gorgeous and wear really well. The Water Drop studs look absolutely amazing, like actual little water droplets! They don't fade or deteriorate when you put a top coat over them either which I love!
I created a subtle grey gradient with OPI's My Pointe Exactly and topped it off with the matching glitter, Pirouette My Whistle. I used the small silver balls and diamond studs I had bought from Born Pretty Store previously to create a little center piece for the water droplet studs. I absolutely love the look of the water droplet studs and this manicure!


Nail Art Water Decals Transfers Crown Shield Rings Pattern #T332  
These dainty decals look super cute and princessey! They remind me of little stackable rings which I think are just gorgeous. I don't really like the four little shield decals and I probably won't use them, but the rest of the decals are so pretty!

I used OPI's Care To Danse? for the pinky purple base and added the gold water decals to three of the nails, and popped the rose stud and some swarovski crystal studs on my ring finger. The gold decals look like the popular flash tattoo's that are trending right now and I just think they look so cute and princessey! ^.^

Manicure Monday - Glitzerland

Hello Princesses!

Today I have short square nails! As you can already tell by my munched up index finger they didn't last very long :C But I thought I'd show you what I wore for a little anyway since having perfectly symmetrical nails is overrated anyway right! :D
The pink polish is Makes Men Blush by OPI and the gold polish is Glitzerland also by OPI! I love the combination of soft pink and gold, it feels so pretty and feminine! A bit of glitter always makes me feel cheerful when I have to shorten my nails ^.^

Manicure Monday: Ruffian Manicure

Hello Princesses!

Today I have a really different manicure to show you, a Ruffian manicure! Google tells me that a Ruffian manicure is a spin off of a moon manicure which I can totally see, and I can also see that I didn't do it particularly well!
I used OPI's Strawberry Margarita for the pink base, and ILNP's My Cat Suit for the black holographic colour. I think it would've been a little more successful if the black wasn't a mini polish, because then the brush would be wider and the curve would've been more even ... I think! ^.^

I hope you Princesses like this manicure, have you got any tips for making the perfect Ruffian Manicure?

Manicure Monday: Teenage Dream

Hello Princesses!

OPI's Teenage Dream is perhaps one of the only polishes I will never ever sell. Pink, glittery and everything I could ever ask for, it really is a beautiful polish. 
Pink glitter gradients are pretty typical for me, but pretty nonetheless! I hope you Princesses enjoyed this simple but ultra girly manicure!

Manicure Monday: Last Friday Night

Hello Princesses!

Today I have another super cute glitter gradient! I think that glitter gradients must be my most worn style of nail art (if you can even call it nail art) because I just love the way they look on my nails!
I used OPI's You Callin' Me A Lyre? for the pink base and Last Friday Night for the blue gradient. I stained my pinkie nails with the OPI's Planks A Lot from last weeks manicure, which causes the nail to look a little bruised, but overall I really like the manicure! ^.^
