Hi there! A couple of weeks ago I did a blue and grey themed mani. It didn’t turn out the way I wanted. But I thought I should still share it.
I painted my nails with MakeUp Revolution True Blue (pinky, index finger, thumb) and NYC In A Minute 019 A Perfect Day (ring finger, middle finger).
I added some glitter – namely Miss Sporty Sparkle Touch Top Coat 888 Glitter – to my ring finger. And then I started stamping. 🙂
I chose my QA89 stamping plate – which is one of the many plates I haven’t used before (that’s because the images are too small for my nails when my nails are longer).
And I stamped on different images using Essence’s amazing White Stampy Polish.
Looking closely, the mani wasn’t perfect because the crown and flower images didn’t turn out the way I wanted them to. But I have to admit that, from a distance, the mani actually looked quite nice.
Thanks for stopping by! 🙂
The grey shades lovely. Especially with the glitter x

I like the sparkly topper you put onto the ring finger!
What is your cuticle care regime? Yours always look so neat.

Thank you! I don’t do anything special with my cuticles. I’ve never used cuticle oil or what else it out there. But I moisturise my hands like a maniac. Hand cream, body lotion, body butter – whatever I’ve got handy. And I always apply cream to my cuticles to keep them elastic. I never cut my cuticles and I don’t use any tools to push them back – I use my nails push them back gently – only when needed.
I used to have horrible cuticles – but once I started to moisturise my hands, my cuticles looked ten times better after a week. And I just kept it up. 🙂

Ah, see, that’s where I fail. I mainly moisturize my hands when I go to bed (and even then, I don’t mange to do it nightly!) And I’m terrible at remembering to moisturize my hands during the day. I need to make a more concerted effort!

I used to be just like that. There were times when I wouldn’t moisturise for an entire week – just because I didn’t think about it.
Start small. Have a hand cream on your desk at work and you’ll remember to use it.

I was thinking it was gray only and when the photo opened and I saw the blue, I said, “Ohhhhh!” Both are so pretty!
