Avon Mark Gel Shine Nail Enamel - Olive-It with nail gems

What a lovely sunny Saturday morning it is, I hope it's a lovely sunny weekend for all of you 🌞

 Today's easy peasy lemon squeezy nail tutorial is applying gems to your nails, and in this sunny weather, they are going to be bling blingtastic!

 There are a plethora of nail gems in various shapes, size & colour, I'm using a mixed coloured wheel of 2mm round gems which are readily available on Ebay for £1 and are flat backed.  The wheel lid has an open section which you turn round to the gems you want to access, a bit like a tub of salt.  I poured out navy, green & turquoise coloured gems onto a piece of paper and used a damp orange stick dipped in water to pick up the gems. 

 

 

 

I painted two coats of Avon Mark Gel Shine Olive-It.  I picked up the gems one at a time and placed on my nails while my top coat was still wet, once they were all in place I gently pressed them down onto the semi set polish.  Don't worry if the nail polish crinkles a little, when you apply your next top coat to seal the gems it will smooth out most of the wrinkles.  Nail glue can be used as a more secure option, but I find for a night out, applying and sealing with top coat is sufficient.

Nail decorations are the perfect way to pep up your mani, to give them interest & make them beautiful.  So today I have a couple of manis to show you using 3D Flower Nail Decorations from Born Pretty Store.  There are 2 in the pack, I've used both on one hand but you could use one on each hand.  The pretty blue flowers have a gold centre and teamed with dark blue rhinestones and tiny pearls.  Set in gold tone with a curved back, they fit wonderfully to your nail.  I used top coat to attach them however nail glue will be a more secure option.
First mani on the left - a shimmery pale blue with white stamping using  Stamping Plate BP-L029 also from Born Pretty Store.  The second mani on the right is a super cute peach topped with blue confetti nail polish to match the colours in the nail decoration.

Pinky Peach AB Nail studs from Charlies Nail Art

PRESS SAMPLE

Greetings everyone!  I've got a couple of manis to show you using 'AB nail studs' from Charlies Nail Art.  Two quite different manis, one is dark grey/green base with pink glitter tips to co-ordinate the pinky peach AB nails studs.  The other is a pink & white water marble with the studs on plain white nails.  Although the same studs were used they look a slightly different colour as they pick up hues from your mani.  So whether you want to be soft and delicate or bold and decadent you can have it both ways, simple yet effective!  How would you wear them?  There are approx 100 'AB nail studs' per pack in 12 colours and I'm wearing the 'peach' coloured studs.  Size 3mm, they have a flat back and I applied them while my top coat was still wet however nail glue might be a more secure option.
