Nail Art // Painting The Roses Red

I love the way this looks. The photos don't really do it enough justice, but I took a lot of pictures to get the best ones I could! This wasn't actually the design I was originally going for but the bows I intended on doing, didn't really turn out like I wanted. I've done this design in the past but used a white base instead of green. I also added an accent nail, I'm not sure if this is still a 'thing' like it was last year but I tend to still like doing it sometimes so thought I would add it in. If you wanted to try this yourself you can find the video I followed Here. Cute polish designs are great, one of my favourites if your looking for new nail art to try out.
 

 
 
I don't always do nail art as it can be very time consuming, but it's nice to take
a bit of time to do something a bit different than the usual one colour sometimes.


Rimmel nail polish  for the base
(Looks like they've changed the packaging on this, as I got mine last year!)

'Glitter nail polish' for the ring finger 'accent nail'
added dots with a 'white nail art pen'
 
 
What do you think? will you be giving this or any nail art a try?

Nail art

 
I took some pictures of the nail art i did recently, I'm so happy with the way it turned out ! I know it's not perfect, but for a first attempt i wouldn't say it was too bad. All I did was paint the whole nails with a baby pink,then add about 4 or 5 dots of baby blue and outline with a black nail art pen, or you could use a cocktail stick dipped in some nail polish. Just make sure you don't outline too much, and that's it. I think it looks a lot harder than it actually is to do. I was going to go into a bit more detail about how i did this but there's so many tutorial's on youTube and on other blogs and i didn't want to do what someone else already has... but i will direct you to someone who goes in to more detail and does so very well, Gem I also used her post as a guide and was very helpful.. so i hope you all liked this.I'm so pleased with them, definitely going to be doing this again!
