9. Ruffian

Just a short post today!

So here is my first attempt at ruffian nails and I did them completely free hand.  I'm actually so proud of them!

I applied Rimmel base coat, one coat of No7 Totally Teal, two coats of a nameless purple-y grey shade by Ruby Recommends and 2true top coat.

I used a striper brush to get the curves just so, and I'm really happy with them.  I even managed to do okay on my right hand!

I love this colour combo.  My sister picked it out because I had no idea what colours to use but I think she did a great job.  Well done Michelle!

Thanks for reading!

Totally Teal

 When I was in Boots recently I received a money off voucher for No7 products.  So what did I do?  I went straight to the nail polishes!

This colour immediately caught my eye as it is so unique and totally different to the polishes I usually go for.  So I got this for only £4 :)

And the brush is absolutely brilliant!  I love it, so easy to use!

I applied Miss Sporty base coat, one (should have done two really) coat of Totally Teal, added some black flower designs with my stamping plates and finished off with a Rimmel top coat.

With the flash on the flowers are quite noticeable but in real life they are much less obvious :( For stamping on this colour you would definitely do better with a white or silver or possibly even a gold!

But despite that I was quite happy with how this turned out!
