Star Foils

So I've kinda been avoiding the nail foil/wraps that are so popular just now as I saw it as a bit of a 'cheat' way of doing my nails, but my mum picked up a packet from Primark for £1 so I decided to give them a go.

They were actually okay to put on!  The wraps folded a bit when putting them on which was annoying as I much prefer smooth nails, especially with something like this, and the cutting off the extra bits was really fiddly because I had to try and get the scissors right up tight to the side of my nail which was difficult!

I then put two coats of 2true top coat on to try and seal them, because my sister's ones came off as soon as they hit warm water :/ But with the top coat on they survived washing my hair and everything!

I have to say I'm pleased I tried them and if I saw another design I really liked I would definately try them again :)

Coral Star

 I was given this nameless coral polish as part of a perfume gift set and decided to give it a go. 
Surprisingly the polish went on really well and wasn't too thin (which I hate!). 
I used a Miss Sporty base coat, then applied two coats of the polish and finished with a Miss Sporty top coat (I really don't like it, need to get a new one soon). 

But my nails looked too bare with just the coral polish so I decided to add some blue stars on the corner of my thumb nails to spice it up a bit.

I think it looks pretty good actually, I think I'll do this manicure again :)
