Little Owls ♥

Today I’m sharing a cute owl nail design. :)

I chose to use our teal purple.

I’m actually quite proud of these. I think they look adorable! And they were quite easy to do! I used the side of the polish brush for the wings and a hair grip for everything else. It’s all made up of dots! I love how well the feather detail turned out. All I did was make a dot in the lighter colour then added a dot of the base colour over the top to get the half moon shape. So easy!

What do you think of my owl nails?

Polishes used: Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine Nail Paint in Watermelon, Plum and Prickly Pear. Avon Nailwear Pro+ in Lemon Sugar and Avon SpeedDry+  in Don’t Be Jaded.

Valentine’s Day Love Heart Nails

Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day! I hope you all have a lovely time whatever you are doing. I won’t be celebrating much as me and Teddi thought it was a bit too close to our Civil Partnership which is on the 19^th.

But I thought I’d share some Valentine’s Day inspired nails anyway. This isn’t anything complicated. Sometimes simple nails can be the most effective! I decided to stick to the classic Valentine’s theme of bright bold reds and love hearts. Here’s what I came up with..

For this look I used Barry M’s Gelly Hi-Shine in Blood Orange. I think this is a perfect shade for Valentine’s Day as it is highly pigmented and super glossy! For the hearts I used fimo heart shapes which I bought a while back.

This was my first time using fimo shapes but it’s really easy and looks wonderful! I love how many different shapes you can get! I will definitely be using these in other nail looks very soon!

What do you think of my fimo heart nails? I really like the contrasting colours. It’s surprising how good red and yellow look together.

What’s your nail look this Valentine’s Day? Feel free to share comments or photos of your manicure. I’d love to see what designs you’ve all done.
