Hello lovelies,

So since I'm celebrating awesome 30,000 followers on Facebook, I wanted to share with you this Gradient Pattern Garden Nails today. Thank you so much for the following and reading my blog, it means the world to me!

I haven't done some proper patterned nails for a while and then I got the idea of gradient patterns! Barry M Almond (reviewed here) was the perfect base so I matched he colours to it:

I really love how the whole manicure came together! It took a little bit longer because of all the intricate patterns but the result was worth it!

I have used acrylic paints for the patterns, Krafty Gurl Gloss It topcoat and of course the Barry M Almond. What do you think? ;)

Hello lovelies,

It's piCture pOlish Monday! I have been trying to do water spotted design but I must say I always fail with water-based nail art :( It never comes out nice. These nails were inspired by Spektor's Nails amazing manicure. I wanted to give it a go but my attempt is nowhere near to hers and in the end is more like some sort of marbled stone than a water-mabled look :D

Anyway, here's my fail:

I have used gorgeous piCture pOlish Siren Song which is a collaboration shade with Rebecca Likes Nails. Then I've used Dance Legend Knight for the water spotted technique.

It didn't come out brilliantly but it was still interesting enough for me to share it with you :) Have a lovely Monday! Lucie x
