models own - Lucy's Stash

Hello lovelies,

It's the last day of the month and that means Nailvengers Assemble Challenge! Joining me in the challenge will be Sammy (The Nailasaurus), Alice (One Nail To Rule Them All) and Allie (Brit Nails). Amelia wasn't able to make it this month.

This month's theme is Summer Treats so I'm doing cocktail nails! Let's check them out:

Firstly, I have painted my nails white using Models Own Snow White. Then I have used makeup sponge, Models Own Utopia, Pink Blush and Snow White and created a gradient on all nails but one. The next step was to paint different fruit used in cocktails - I have painted them using acrylic paints.

As for the accent nail, I tried to paint a glass with a pink cocktail and ice cubes - can you tell? ;) It is done with acrylic paint as well. So what do you think? ;)

If you recreate any of our manicures then please use #nailvengers, we would love to see! You can also follow us on Facebook:

Hello lovelies,

Hope you're all well :) My holiday is coming to an inevitable end but I still have two more days left. Today I'll see four friends so I'm really looking forward to it.

Today's post is about flowers. I love floral manicures, I've always have so I've done another one. This time I aimed for a bit uneven, roughed up finish rather than precise flowers.

I've used Rimmel Breakfast In Bed as a base colour and then thinned down Rimmel Rita Rouge with nail polish thinner and roughly painted flower petals. Then I've painted unevenly a black outline to give it a rough look and black dot in the middle. Lastly, I've finished off with gold leaves and swirls and dotted flower centre. For that I've used Models Own 25 Carat Gold polish, a special Dog's Trust edition. I purchased the rings in Born Pretty Store (LUHH10 for 10% discount).

Have a lovely day everyone and let me know what you think ;) Love, Lucie x
