Negative Space All The Nails!

Negative Space nail art by @britnails

I'm part of a Facebook group called Paint All The Nails (which might explain the title of this post!) a group full of wonderful bloggers and once a month we have a themed nail art link up - this month's theme is negative space and it's my first time taking part. Participating in the link up is voluntary so you'll see a different mix of us each month!

Delicate Stamping with piCture pOlish, Pet'la Plate and A England

Pet'La Plate Nail Art by @britnails

The problem with stamping is it never seems to look as dainty and delicate in pictures as it does in real life; as a blogger this drives me mad, there are few things more annoying as when a design doesn't translate well to screen. I'm hoping you get the idea though! Here I've used one of my favourite piCture pOlish collaboration shades, teamed with one of my favourite stamping plates which I received from NailLand.

Cirque Juicy Collection Nail Art


I posted a sneak peek of this manicure on Instagram yesterday, and here it is in its full glory! I created this bright and colourful nail art using colours from the Cirque Juicy Collection - ever since I got the colours I've been dying to use them in some nail art, and this is what I came up with!

I was recently asked by NailLand if I'd like to try some of the products they stock, and one of the things I chose is the Calaveras plate by a brand thats new to me, Pet'la Plate. I fell in love with the design instantly, it's just so pretty! Images of leadlighting started swirling in my head ;)

Festival Floral


Press Sample

Today I've got a quick post featuring some bright floral nail art despite the weather being horrible (I really want a giant Starbucks coffee, but I'm not going out in that!) and I used my shiny new stamping plates. How satisfying is it when you peel that blue backing off a new plate!?

Super Neon Gradient


The B Squared Lacquer EDM collection had me in the mood for some nail art, and rather annoyingly when I'd finished I realised I did a similar gradient not too long ago...guess I really love citrus neons don't I?! I'm still sharing regardless because I really like it!

Dance Legend Aquarelle Collection Review


Press Sample

Ever since OPI released the Sheer Tints collection I've been wanting to try them, but I've never been able to get my hands on them in the UK. Luckily, Dance Legend have come to my rescue with the Aquarelle collection, their own line of sheer jelly polishes! I was lucky enough to be sent some to try out, so I finally got to have a go at the Leadlight technique

Nailvengers Assemble!: Christmas

Nailvengers Assemble! Christmas Nail Art

Hi! It's the end of the month, which means it's nearly time for December already (I swear it was only Christmas 10 minutes ago, and no, of course I haven't started my Christmas shopping!) and also time for another Nailvengers challenge with my friends Sammy, Alice and Lucie. I've gone for something simple and sparkly!

Nailvengers Assemble: Halloween

Nailvengers Assemble Halloween Nail Art

Happy Halloween!! I've already broken into the sweets meant for the trick or treaters (aren't fizzers just the best sweets ever?) Anyway, I'm back with the Nailvengers this month for a Halloween theme! I've gone for a less traditional sort of Halloween design, no ghosts or pumpkins in sight, and I love how it turned out.

Floral Stamping with Illamasqua Melange


Melange is just so pretty I couldn't bear to part with it, so I did some simple stamping over the top before it was time to remove (blogger's curse...never much time to keep a polish on!) the colour I chose to stamp with ended up being a pretty much perfect compliment to Melange.

Baroque Beauty


Did you know that a-england make fabulously good stamping polishes? Well, they do! I've used two of my favourite a-england beauties - Saint George and Sleeping Palace - for this design, along with an image from MoYou London Pro Collection 03 (XL). The baroque style design is a perfect match for the mythical feel of a-england polishes! I feel like this has a sort of Game of Thrones feel to it, too. I think if Cersei Lannister had some stamping plates and nail polish, this is what she might rock. ;)
