Cute and Easy Panda Nails

 
 
Helloooo, So I came across some panda nails on the interwebs and decided to try them out myself. These lil guys are so easy to do and you only need black and white polish which most people have! Hope you enjoy and try it out and leave any requests below :)
 

First I painted a little more than half of my nails with white polish in a dome shape.
 
 
 

I then took my little nail dotter that I got in Primark and drew two ears with black polish like this, you can also use a skewer or even a cotton bud.
 
 
 

I took the same dotter and drew two eyes and a teeny nose.
 
 
 
 

I wiped the dotter and dipped it in white polish and dotted white in the middle of each black eye, slightly smaller than the previous black dot. These look real creepy at this step #PhantomPanda's
 
 

I used the other side of my dotter which is smaller, dipped it in black polish and dotted it in the middle of the white for the panda pupils :) You could also use a black marker if the white polish was dry.
 
 
Have a happy day and I hope you enjoyed the tutorial!  🐼

Christmas Penguin Nails


How cuuuute!

Helloooo! Since we have entered into November, it is officially CHRISTMAS!! well, in my mind anyways. I decided to try out some Christmassy nails, so the first ones I tried were these cutie-patootie penguin nails. These are really easy to do and all you need is black, silver and orange nail paint, and either a nail dotter or a tooth pick. Heres how I did them :)




First I painted all my nails with an Essence black nail varnish.
 
 
 
 
I then took a Gosh silver nail polish and painted a semi circle on the top of my nails and did two big dots with a nail dotter above.




I took the same black nail polish and put a small black dot in the middle of the larger silver dots to make the eyes.
 
 
 
 
I took a small dotter and dipped it into orange nail polish and drew a small triangle at the top of the semi circle for the beak, and drew two little feet at the bottom.
 
 
I added a top coat to make them nice and shiny and that's it :) Hope you like them and I cant wait to do more Christmassy nails wooo! ❄ x

Halloween Spider Nails


 
These are my Halloween Spider nails that didn't turn out quite so perfect but look pretty funky from afar lol. Really quick and easy to do and cute with a black dress, smokey eyes and a little spider hair piece, for the person who doesn't want to dress up, but doesn't want to be boring either :)
 
First I painted all my nails in Gosh 'Holographic' nail polish that I used in my previous blog post. This colour is so flipping cool and the picture does not do it justice!
 
 
 
I dipped the point of a pen in black nail polish and drew small curvy lines diagonally on my thumb and ring finger. I would suggest using a skewer or tooth pick but I didn't have any. You can also leave it here is you aren't going for a Halloween look as I think this looks pretty cool as it is!
 
 
 
 
I then drew as-thin-as-possible black lines through the curvy lines to make the web-ish look! I messed up and had to re-do this twice so don't worry if you do that's what nail polish remover and patience is for :)
 
 
 
I decided to take it a step further and add an itsy bitsy spider on my index finger, which didn't turn out the healthiest looking of spiders, but oh well! For this I painted a small blob and dragged out 6 small legs with the same pen.
 
 
Finish with a clear top coat and there ya go! Hope you enjoy and Happy Halloweeeeeen 💀

Easy Sparkling Leopard Nails


 
Coral and silver leopard print nails :) Easier than they look.


These nails are so pretty and are surprisingly easy to do! If you don't like the coral colour you can change them up, and you can alter them to what you'd like. They can spice up a boring pair of hands and if you're being a cat or a leopard for Halloween, you're sorted! The best part is they look more difficult than they actually are - If I can do it you can do It!

First I painted two coats of Miss Sporty, number 326 on all fingers.



I then used a cotton bud to paint large dots on my ring finger and my thumb. I first used a white nail polish as a base for Gosh's 'Holographic' Nail Polish. This colour is so gorgeous and sparkly, especially in the light.



 
I dipped the tip of a pen in black nail polish and drew semi-circles around the dots and added dots or squiggly lines around them.
 
 
 

I then added the same 'Holographic' nail polish on the tips of the rest of the nails, which took longer than I thought to get right!



This step is optional but I took the pen dipped in black polish again and drew a small heart on my index finger but I think it looks just as nice without it.



Hope you all have fun recreating this look and leave requests below if you have any
