I rarely seem to use Lime Crimes Milky Ways as it tends to look plain on its own. So i went through my collection and choose Nubars Hollywood Pink to use as a stamping polish. I really wasn't sure how this would turn out as i hadn't used this polish for stamping before and i could barely see it on the stamper. But after really taking my time the turned out ok, it's not one of my favourites but still looks good.
I used konad plate m60 then finished with Rimmels Matte top coat

More Flower stamping
As i said in a prevous post i do like my flower stamping and i promise i will certainly change it up from now on.
I did this design on my friends nails a few weeks ago, i think it looks lovely, its not once of my best, i could of done it so much neater, i find it harder doing other peoples nails then my own, they never end up as neat but i'm slowly getting there. Will certainly have to redo this design at some point.
For this design i used Nubar white peony then stamped using Cheeky plate CH12 and Accessorise metalized one coat in greige then for the dots i used lime crimes parfait day, lavendairy and once in a blue mousse.

Fishtail Manicure with Lime Crime Polishes
After seeing this manicure on many other blogs i thought i would try it out myself. It's not as hard and messy as i though it would be. Like many others i decided to do an accent nail. This was my first attempt which went pretty well.
The colours i used where the new lime crime colours (i love these colours), i painted all but my ring finger in Once in a blue mousse which only need 2 coats, then on my ring finger i used 1 coat of Lavendairy and painted the bottom half of my nail, i then started the fish tail with once in a blue mousse, next i used parfait day then Lavendairy. I carried on in that order until i reach the top of my nail. Once the colours were fully dry i finished off with Boots No7 top coat. I wasn't expecting this manicure to last long as the accent nail can get a thick layer of polish but it surprised me and lasted at least 3 days before i got a slight chip on the corner.
I love this design and got many compliments from people, ended up doing a few of my friends nails as they loved the design too.
Sorry for the small pictures, i have been off work now for a while so had been doing my nails during that time and took pictures with my phone. Now i've started the blog any designs from today will have much better pictures (hopefully)
