Hello lovelies,

Last week, I've had an interesting proposition from lovely people at Tangle Teezer. They've asked me if I'd like to create a nail art inspired by their Tangle Teezer hair brushes and tell you about a Twitter competition between Tangle Teezer and Little Ondine. I immediately said yes because I'm a huge fan of Tangle Teezer (TT) brushes and I haven't been using any others for the past 4 or so years.

Once I browsed the TT website to look for an inspiration, I came across their Salon Elite line full of colourful brushes. I've had an idea for fun, colourful and almost pop art stylised images so I tried to get as close as possible to my vision.

I've used two Tangle Teezers in the photos - Lemon Sherbet, a canary yellow and pastel pink and Blue Blush, bright blue and neon pink.

As for my nails, I wanted to match up the polishes as close to the TT colours as possible and then stick to the colour combinations on my nails. I also didn't want a busy design bt something very simple yet bold. This design was most likely done before but I didn't intentionally copy anyone and just played around :)

For my left hand I've used KIKO 295 Cerulean Blue, a bright blue nail polish and then I've used striper and painted the middle section with Models Own Pink Wellies, a neon pink polish. On my right hand, I've painted my nails with three coats of Accessorize Bubble Gum, a pink creme colour. The using striper again, I've painted the middle section with Rimmel 452 Chin up, Buttercup, a bright yellow creme. All sealed with Seche Vite topcoat which ultimately betrayed me at this instance and I had quite noticeable shrinkage after couple of hours :'(

Here's the rest of the photos I did for you with the help of my husband and keep reading for the details of the competition and how to join!

Hello lovelies,

Since doing my dotted Easter Eggs that were inspired by wonderful artist Elspeth McLean, I wanted to do nails too. I finally found the time and created this rainbow dotticure inspired by Elspeth's mandala stones. I love Elspeth's work, it's so colourful, positive, flawless and precise.

Well...my dots are not as precise but I gave it a shot ;) The mandalas on my thumb and ring finger are directly inspired by Elspeth's work and the remaining nails are an older design I've recycled...

I have used the following Rimmel shades:

• Gimme Some Of That
• Chin Up, Buttercup
• Ava-A-Bit Of Jade
• Roll In The Grass
• Orgasm
• Danny Boy, Blue!
• White Hot Love
• Bestival Blue
• Berries And Cream
• Sand And Deliver
• Tangerine Tent

..and dotting tools from Born Pretty Store (psst! use LUHH10 for 10% off your order)

Pretty colourful, right? I wore this manicure for four days and kept looking at it all the time! I really liked it and it always brightened my mood. I hope you liked it too!

Have a lovely day! Lucie x
