Halloween Nails!

So, Halloween is tomorrow? WRONG! Where i live, we have Halloween on the last Friday in October just 'coz we're cool that way... ; ) But for all of you, you still have time to try out this mani! ;D

Oh scaaaary! Haha, I think the Barry M crackle nails look quite spooky? hehe! Then you'll never guess what, for the spotty dotty bits? I used a kirby-grip/bobby-pin! Simple! Instead of using a dotting tool, use a kirby! :D I know the dots on my second finger is a bit smudged but i think it adds to the spookiness? xD I started to film myself doing my nails, but the camera kept falling over so i just gave up! :( But...my tripod arrived in the post yesterday! yeeeey! :D So, a new video will be up soon! :D

the thumb! ; )

my other hand!

What do you think? :D I will post a new video soon, any suggestions or requests? Just comment! :D

Well, since i have has so many requests for tutorials, i thought this was the perfect time to start! :D I made a tutorial on my masking nails, a few posts back! Here it is, hope you like it! :D

Please go to my youtube channel (here) and subscribe, comment, like, whatever! :D Oh, and also leave requests and suggestions of what you would like to see!

Here is a photo of my nails that i created in the video

Note to self ~ Don't use Nubar 2010 over white polish, doesn't look that good in photos... : P
I know, the lines aren't perfect, but you know that way when you post your first ever video and you're like 'Ahhhh Panic, Lucy, you're going waaaay too slow! Hurry up!' so yeah, i kinda rushed a bit, so i just decided to cover it in glitter to make up for the imperfections... :D Sorry about the bad lighting in the photo, all the glittery bits are black, arrrg! : ( Sorraaaay *slap Lucy's face* I promise to do better next time : D

Hope you like! :D
Lucy! :D

Nubar - 2010 & goodies!

Wow, just wow! I ordered 2 nubar polishes from BeautyBay.com, one of them being Nubar - 2010(shown above). I was super-excited to get my package and was up every morning waiting for the post and when it came, they even chucked a few freebies in to add to the fabulousness of the wondrous box. Amazing!

Here is what i received free! The two polishes in the middle are the ones that i bought, Nubar - 2010 & Nubar - Heavy Gold Glitter. Then they sent me the two mini bottles, base coat and top coat and the can of hair volume mousse? :D Amazing i tell you...AMAZING!

Sorry, this photo doesn't do the polish any favours but i thought i'd show you how it looked from a bit further away! : )

Here it is again, yes, the same polish! :O Yeah! It turns different colours every time that you angle it differently! :D I know, fantastic! xD Don't you just love it?! I do! :D

Let me know what you think? Enter my giveaway here! For some reason, not many people are commenting on my recent posts, please do, i looooove comments, they make my day! :D

O.P.I - Rainbow Connection - Muppets Collection

The third finger along from the left! :D

When i was out shopping in Glasgow today, I found this little beauty! ;D
I've been trying to hunt it down for ages and then when i was staring at it for so long, my mum must have been a bit worried so she offered to buy me it for a special treat! I was like 'YAAAAHOOOOOOOO!'

It's gorgeous, isn't it? >.<
I used it for a top coat over NYC - Ink Stain and layered on two coats. Here's a close up:

even more beauuuutiful! ^.^

I'm just dreading taking it off! : o

Oh, if you were wondering what nail polish i was using for my other nails from the first photo, all will be revealed soon enough children! ; )

I have quite a few posts ready to post throughout the new few weeks! : D

Masking nails & 80 Followers! : )

Ahhhhhh! Do you like it? :D I used NYC - Ink Stain & Rimmel - Green With Envy! To get this effect, i painted my nails with the darker colour and left it for a day(yes, a whole day!) to harden completely before layering a strip of cellotape(the word cellotape looks really weird to me, anyone else?!lol.) diagonally across my nail. Then I painted over the whole nail with the lighter polish and peeled the cellotape off! :D
The reason why i left it for a whole day is that I have tried this before, leaving it to dry for only a few hours and when i came to peel the tape off, the whole base coat came off with it as it must still have been soft....ish!

Do you like this one? I used the same effect but cut a triangle out of the strip! :D Which one do you like better? : )

EOS Lip Balm & Blue Cracked Nails!

First, I will show you my new obsession...EOS Lemon Drop Lip Balm! >.<
I found a post on Brittany's Secret(an awesome blog that i follow) that gave a great review to this lip balm, I needed to try it! :D
I searched and searched for the cheapest one i could find(quite hard to find in the UK) and finally found this! I know, it's not that cheap but it's the best site you will find! :D Me and my mum both got different flavours! I got Lemon Drop (gorgeous) & my mum got Honeydew and Honeysuckle (yuuuum!)!

Lemon Drop!

I'd give them 5/5, they keep my lips moisturised for aaaaaaages and smell(and taste ^.-) delicious! :D I'm sure i'll be needing another one soon...

Moving on, here are my nails :

Barry M - Blueberry Ice Cream & Barry M - Black Nail Effects

Barry M is seriously my favourite polish at the moment! : O It's so cheap and only needs one coat and they have fab colours!

Goodbye Steve : ( & Apple Nails

You have probably already heard about Steve Jobs! : (

He created so many great products, iPods, iMacs, iPads, iPhones...

apples home page

Even if you weren't an apple customer or whatever, iTunes was Steve's idea! 

apple products...

So...I decided to make a tribute to Steve by doing my nails : )

My nails next to my macbook...

Here is my freehand apple logo...

Apple & sparkles

My Apple

Hope you like the apple but also, Steve Jobs, awww : (

My doggy & your own photos! : D

Just thought i'd update you with a video of my doggy! : D

You can watch it on youtube and like it or favourite or whatever you wanna do with it, your decision, not mine! >.<
I was exploring Pinterest when I can across this photo:

I know, I know, it doesn't look that fancy or anything but when i clicked on the photo, it took my to this (click here) page! Apparently you can put any design on your nails! you just need to have
 ~ Alcohol
 ~ Nail Polish
 ~ A Printer
All you need to do is print out a design to fit your nail, dip your nail in alcohol and then press the printed image onto your nail! So...does that mean you could put photo's of yourself on your nails... :O AMAZING! XD

I might(might) be making a tutorial on some of my nail designs at the weekend as many of you have requested! What would you like to see? I will try my best! :D

Thank you to all of my new followers, you are all amazing! >.<

See you soon,
Lucy :D

Do you like them? I'll show you a close up!

Kawaii Companions ~ Ichigo : D

I recently received a package from Kawaii Companions including an Ichigo ring & an Ichigo necklace!

Ichigo Ring

The ring is soo cute as you can see and has an ajustable catch at the back, which is really handy as my fingers are quite slim so i could easily tighten it just by squeezing it! :D

back of the ring!

I also got the necklace which is basically the same but a big bigger and has a little cutie-pie body! >.<

necklace! :D

It is quite long and has a cute red chain! When i'm wearing it, it goes down to my belly button if that helps you picture the length of it(?!) lol! ^.^ It is now my favourite necklace and I have been wearing it everyday since I got it! :o It's uuuubeeer-cute! XD love it, love it, love it! : D

Here's a photo of them together! :D
