Hello lovelies,

How are you all doing? It's already March and it got me thinking? What about all those New Year's resolutions? A big portion of resolutions revolves around weight loss and exercise and exercise is an inspiration of today's nails.

Bundle Monster has released a set of exercise-themed stamping plates last year (reviewed here) and I've done another manicure with them :) This time I've combined the Bundle Monster designs with a colourful background achieved with Morgan Taylor Chrome collection polishes.

I've started with Models Own Chrome Turquoise, a blue metallic polish. Then I've painted brush lines and strokes with Morgan Taylor Sunset Yellow Appliqué, Ultra Marine Appliqué and Royal Appliqué so that they overlap each other in places.

Next, I wanted to protect my skin before stamping so I've painted Bundle Monster Poli-Peel latex barrier around my nails. Then I've stamped over the colourful background with Bundle Monster Work It! plates BM-XL172 and BM-XL172 and sealed the nails with Seche Vite topcoat. 

So that's my exercise-themed manicure! What do you think? Let me know in the comments...

Have a lovely day! Lucie x

Hello lovelies,

How is your weekend? I'm catching up on some blog work and preparing some new secret project ;) Today I'll show you a gradient manicure and then an updated version of it.

Lovely people from Models Own have sent me their latest colours added to the metallic Chrome collection and I've integrated them into some of my nail art manicures. I started with two coats of Models Own Chrome Grey and then I've sponged on I Love Nail Polish Metropolis and Cold Fusion flakies from the tip of the nail toward the centre.

For me, flakies are still amazing polishes and I really love them so I'll do my best to incorporate them little bit more in the future. I purposely used two different flakie polishes to achieve a nice range of colours and I quite liked the result. But it wasn't quite good enough so I added floral stamping on top!

I have used my Bundle Monster x Lucy's Stash collaboration plate and Hit The Bottle Snowed In stamping polish. All sealed with a coat of Seche Vite top coat.

I see myself coming back again and again to my collaboration stamping plate, probably until I do a manicure with every single image. What about you? Have you gotten yourself this plate yet?

I hope you enjoyed this post and had a nice weekend! Lucie x
