nail art - Lucy's Stash

Hello lovelies,

Nice people from Models Own have set me four colours from their new Twilight HyperGel collection and I've decided to combine them into one manicure..well, a dotticure.

The Twilight collection consists of 13 new HyperGel shades in beautiful autumnal and winter colours. Whole HyperGel collection boasts with wider flat brush for easier application and super glossy formula with gel-like look without the need of UV light.

Fun with dots! Nail Art with Models Own HyperGel shades

I've had so much fun creating this look! I've used dotting tools and nail art brush and these four Models Own polishes*: Everyday Grey, Cashmere Pink, Robin Red and Loganberry. All polishes were lovely to work with as their formula is well-pigmeted and not too thick. In the end I've applied Cuccio Matter topcoat to get a different finish and I really liked it! Which version do you like better - glossy or matte?

Models Own Twilight collection is available at www.modelsownit.com, in Bottleshops and in Superdrug.

Have a lovely day! Lucie x

Hello lovelies,

I'm back from a short holiday break in Czech Republic so I've been very quiet this week. In the light of this week's horrific attacks I wasn't going to post any more nails BUT I refuse to feel and act defeated, scared and depressed. I will not stop doing what I love and since some French ladies in the nail community already expressed that they do not wish to see 'Pray for Paris' nails I will respect that and post something neutral I've prepared last week before I left England. So I will not further modify this post and will post it as it was originally intended.

Today's manicure combines different textures and I've created it a while ago. Unfortunately it took me ages to edit the video tutorial so I couldn't show you just yet! But good news is - it's done now and there is a tutorial!

I have been trialling different texture nail art manicures in the past few months and this lavender manicure is the first one. At the time I still wore rounded nails on my right hand so to precede your questions - no, I did not change my nail shape completely ;)
