Aztec nail tutorial

*This is my first tutorial so I hope its ok*
 I love to do my nails and when I found and easy yet effective way to make an aztec print I had to show you. so here it is the first in hopefully many nail tutorials.
I hope you like it but be sure to leave a comment below with ideas of what else I could do.

1. Find some colours 4-5 that will go nicely together. I like to pick groups e.g. neons, Pastels, pinks ect

2.You will also need a nail striper you can pick these up cheaply online (Ebay for example) or use a paint     brush, but you can also watch this video to make one here *This is not my video but it is very good*

3. Paint a white (or light) background colour
4. Paint stripes of Different colours across the nails. You don't have to make them all the same.
5. Use the nail striper to outline the lines.
6. Paint on designs in patters with striper e.g. lines, crosses, dots, even glitter ect... And I personally think they look better when they are different but its up to you.

QOTD: Will you try these nails? Any suggestions for other designs? Which is your favourite theme?

June Favourites

Wow this month has been VERY busy (as you will know if you have been keeping up with the 30 day snap) and that means I've not had too much time for different products but here they are so I hope you enjoy...

  1.  Color club nail polish in Reign in Spain.
I love this colour and it manages to be a pastel coral and a neon coral at the same time (What!!!????)
I love it and will be one of my summer faves,
which is weird because I don't normally go for oranges or pinks let alone coral.

2. Collection 2000 nail care 2in1 strengthener and hardener with calcium
Wow that is a long name. I have had this product for a while and this is my second bottle. 
Recently my nails have been really sad and soft (because I don't really have too much calcium in my life).
I love this and because its clear I can wear it for school *whoo whoo*
It takes a week or so to work but it makes your nails stronger and that's always a bonus.

3. Daisy head band from Primark
This was £1.50 or £2 I forget but its so pretty and subtle for the summer.
If you don't want to wear a full head band of flowers this is a great hand band that is comfy and for such a great price why now get this for the summer. 

4. Yes to carrot leave in conditioner
I have really enjoyed this over the past few months and I do believe it has actually helped my hair be less dry and it looks more happy. And who doesn't want happy hair for the summer. It was also pretty cheap as I bought it when it was on sale from ASOS.

I'm sorry there is only four products this month but I thought I would only add in the one's I have really been enjoying. not just put them in for no reason. hope you enjoyed...speak soon.

QOTD: What have you been enjoying this month? Any product suggestions? Any blogs I should read?

March Favourites


Hello, it’s that time of month it’s the beginning of April and I’m going to do my first monthly favourites so here we go:
Throughout March I have loving several things and I am just desperate to share them with you…
  •     Hair bows – I love these, and to be honest with my crazy hair they really help. I’m able to have it out but control it at the same time. These are great because you can just pick up the front part of your hair and scoop it back and clip it up, it literally takes me seconds and looks really fun.I have loads of these in various colours. The white lace one I got from Claire’s in a sale for £2 and the red/purple/blue/black coloured one I made myself from a piece of material and it’s one of my favourite.                             
  •     Mini eggs – who doesn't love a bit of chocolate? And for me I’d be happy eating no other chocolate but these. It’s a shame they only do them at Easter (even if easer apparently starts in January). These yummy egg shaped chocolates are amazing and I would happily eat them all yummy.

  •     Revlon nail polish in 990 – One perfect coral- I love this colour and I’m so glad I found it. I picked this up in a charity shop although it was brand new (you know when you can just tell) anyway it was only £1 which is even better. It’s a neon coral colour which is great for summer/ spring and I’m really looking forward to wearing this.
  •      Natural collection eye liner – I use the black colour and sometimes the brown and I really enjoy this product. It’s really cheap, I think it’s about £1.99, but it’s great and it lasts a really long time. It’s a creamy formula which is good as the last thing you want is something pulling on your eye. I would defiantly recommend this to you so go check it out for yourself.

So I think that’s it for this month. I won’t bore you to death, but I will defiantly be back next month to share some more products with you.
