WAH Nails Nail Art Book Inspo


Some friends gave me 'The WAH Nail Book of Nail Art' (available from River Island) for my birthday which is an ideal gift!
The book has so many ideas and inspiration in it.
I couldn't decide on one design so I tried a few and I love how it turned out as a mixture.
I did all of them using a base coat and my black and white striper and pen tools.
I love the bow, although hard to do left handed! And the flowers, they are different from my usual ones so I love how they turned out! 
Can't wait to try out more designs from WAH nails. 

Sparkly Sparkle


This picture is shoddy quality but you get the idea!
I bought gold sparkly polish from barry M the other day, and this is how it turned out!
I painted on a black base coat and then applied the gold to the tips, graduating less further up the nail.
 I love the effect so much. 
Definitely going to do this again with different colours!

Half and Half


This style is popping up every where, and yet again, its really easy to do! 
Paint half your nail a plain colour, I used purple. Then paint the other half glitter. The line doesn't have to be neat because your going to go over it. 
Either using a black precision pen or a dotting tool, paint squiggly lines down the centre of the nail. 
Put on a top coat and its done.
Its a really nice effect and can be done in all sorts of ways.

Cath Kidston inspired nails


I did these by applying a base coat, adding a straight white line in the middle, dotting white along the line, and then adding flowers. They are done by randomly dotting large dark pink, and lighter smaller pink dots on top. Add some little leaves with a brush and enjoy your cath kidston style nails!

Pink Glitter and Hearts


I bought this pink sparkle nail polish from Claire's Accessories, only £2.50! Bargain.
And I drew white hearts using my small dotting tool and white No.17. 
I love the effect, it looks really girly! A bit too girly!

Panda and Dots


I love this little panda design. Done on the tip of the nail using white with a brush and black detail with a little brush.
To make sure it wasn't too busy with panda's I did white bases with black dots on the other nails.
