Designs and Ideas...

Hello! As I said in my last blog post, I am in love with nails, so a while ago I decided to purchase some plain false nails and practice some designs. I started off with fairly basic designs and have now done some more advanced ones. I have done over 50 designs now so thought I would share some with you!

Some of the first designs I did, just a simple faded effect with a coating of silver glitter on the top


Some more of my early designs, going for a spotty theme here haha, just a simple black and white polka dot, and white with various bright polka dots, and a mint green with black and white polka dots!

Slightly more advanced designs, the first on is just a multicoloured base with black croc effect nail varnish over the top, the middle one is just a simple cow print design and the last one is a beautiful, shiny blue with the Greek eye pattern

Again, more advanced designs, pretty, pink, dotty and glittery patchwork effect design, a multicoloured water-marble effect design, and a orange/coral leopard print design 
Some of my newest designs, my summery ones, a cute ladybird, pretty blue base with white flowers in the corners and a summery, bright watermelon design.

A lot of my nail art products I buy from eBay because it is just so cheap and often the products are decent quality. To do some of the smaller trickier bits on my designs I either use, nail brushes or nail art pens, I buy these from eBay because they are such a reasonable price that you just can't go wrong. I have bought some of my favourite nail products from eBay and I am so so happy with them!

These are the nail brushes that I use mainly for detail on my nail designs. I purchased these from eBay a few weeks ago, I thought that the price of these was really reasonable and the quality of the brushes is so good. I got these 15 brushed for around £3.99 I think and I am very pleased with them and use them all the time!

Finally, these are the nail art pens that I use, these are also from eBay and they are brilliant for small detail as they are two-ended and have a nozzle type thing for accuracy so you can just squeeze the bottle and the paint comes out of the nozzle, they also have a fine bristled brush which are also really nice and easy to use. These 12 pens cost me £5.29 from eBay and I am also very pleased with these!
My love for nail art is slightly ridiculous and my collection of nail products is slowly growing larger and larger, and is way bigger than it needs to be! But it is something that I really enjoy doing and I love sharing it with you!
