Two Toned… Spring/Summer Nail Inspiration Part III

Now as we have officially reached the Summer, I'm here with the last instalment in my nail inspiration series - this time with a very easy nail art, that I often get a lot of compliments on.

The nail art in question is a two toned ombre nail.

Techno Colour… NOTD - Ombre nail with Barry M Nude and Nails Inc Notting Hill Gate!

I have been so lazy with my nails these past months, but the other day I saw a small video on the Nails Inc Instagram, that gave me the inspiration for this easy nail art.

This one is great if you have shorter fingers and want to elongate your them without having to have long nails.

Pink Picks… Pink Nail Polish Edit!

Time for the pink bunch in my little nail polish edit series, that will soon come to an end.

I like pink polish, it is a very classic choice, but not my first one.

Formula X Brazen - Topshop Twilight Tease - Barry M Pink Flamingo - L'Oreal Rose Aphodisiac

Golden Group… Golden Nail Polish Edit!

I think this one is quite an exciting mix.

All though they are not all obvious gold, every one have a such of something golden - hence the title.

Green Gathering… Green Nail Polish Edit!

So the time has come for the green nail polish selection, which is one of my favourite brights for summer.

This selection also include some new discoveries brand-wise, which I'm very exited about!

Sephora Formula X Over the Top - L'Oreal Wasabi Hint - Maybelline Mint For Life - Barry M Spring Green

Nail No No… Disappointing Nail Product!

Just because I haven't been posting a lot about nails recently, doesn't mean, that I haven't been trying out new nail polishes and products.

Some have been good and some have been not so good.

I want to share with you the not so good ones in this post.

Nail on... Autumn Nail Polish Picks Part 1!

So I haven't really been that inventive with my nails, since coming to the UK - to be honest, I just really can't be bothered and I don't really have the space, time or tools to do great nail art or creative NOTD's.

Also my nail polish collection is a bit limited being away from home :-)

But nail polish is still my one great beauty passion, so I wanted to share my favourite autumn nail polishes, some of the them old favourites and some new discoveries.

Things that I love... Nail of the day!

For this nail of day, I did a bit of every trend I'm loving right now.

So we got some texture, some dots, monochrome and of course a hint of neon.

The Coming of Spring.... April beauty favourites!

This month pasted by so quickly, but luckily with a lot of sunny days.

And these are my April favourites, most will probably come as no surprise, if you follow my blog.

Body and face:

& Other Stories Body Scrub in Punk Bouquet

See my review here.

Acid Rain... Nail of the day.

I love neon, and especially on the nails

Pink Road... NOTD/Review - Barry M Textured Effect Nails in Kingsland Road.

As I wrote in my last NOTD post, I really wanted to try a texture nail polish.

I went for the cheaper option with this trend, and got the Barry M Textured Effect Nails.

Poison Ivy... Nail of the day!

A little glitter always make a NOTD a bit more interesting.

This NOTD really reminds me of Poison Ivy from Batman. Loved Uma in that role.

The Pinks... Nail of the day!

How doesn't love a good pink nail polish?

My collection is quite full of them.

And for this one, I just couldn't choose.

So I went for a pink rainbow.

The Christmas Edition.... Christmas Nail, Face and Outfit!

As promised, here are my Christmas nail, face and outfit.

Hope you all had a great Christmas with lots of great food, presents and nice time with your family and friends.

Let get started!

Nails:

I did a dark blue base with a lot of dots in different Christmas colours.

Bubble Gum gone wild... Nail of the day!

I really like this design is all sorts of combination.

It's very easy and you can match it to your mood or special occasion.

I really like this combination, I think it's fun and festive.

London Lovin'...My favourite London buys - Part 1/Beauty!

It has now been three weeks since, I came home from my London trip.

I really wanted to show you all the things, I got, but that would take forever!

So I thought, that I would show you my favourite buys, and the things I have used the most since, I came home.

Make up:

It's a big no no!... Products I regret buying!

We all have them - Product we've bought with big hopes and happiness, and then they just let us down!

I'm normally quite good at researching and getting samples, so that I avoid a lot of wrong purchases.

However to avoid it totally, when you buy as much as I do, is impossible!

So to spare you the same disappointment, I thought, that I would tell you about the products, I regret buying!

Please note, that every one has different experiences with a product, so some of the products below, might be you favourite. This is just my opinion!

Skin- and haircare:

The Little Mermaid... Summer Nail Dairy # 14.

I know, I wrote in my last "summer nail dairy", that it would be my last "summer nail", but as it's still August, and therefore still summer, I will just add another one to the dairy.

I don't know about you, but even though I have worked long hours every day almost all summer, I have had a great summer.

I spend it with great people and had a lot of fun, and yes I actually love my job!

My trip to London was perfect!

And yes I spend a lot of money, and got most of the things on my list.

So all in all I'm going into autumn satisfied with my summer :-)

The polishes I used for these nails, I bought in London.

Pastel Rainbow - Summer Nail dairy # 13.

I actually had the idea for this nail combo for a while.

It reminds me of summer ice cream.

And what's now that the summer is nearly coming to it's end.

This also means, that soon I won't able to call this "Summer Nail Dairy" any more.

However I've been enjoying sharing and documenting, what I have been wearing on my nails.

So I will probably still make these Nail dairy posts:-)

But for now, lets see my Ice cream nails.

Happy Holidays... Summer nail dairy # 3

I'm not much for doing nails according to season, but in stead I go with my mood.

Some might think these nails is quite Christmassy, but I don't care :-)

I got OPI Excuse Moi for Christmas, but I actually don't find it super Christmassy.

But together with Barry M's Racing green, which is almost a Christmas tree green, It does give a Christmas feel:-)
