Pastels and tiny jewels

I've just recently got a new DSLR in preparation for my Photography A level in September, so I will be posting better quality photos from now on :-P

Anyways, hi lovelies :-) I thought I'd go all lovely and girly after my bout of black and red nails!

L-R: MO nailart pen, Blooboo, Lilac Dream, Pastel Pink, Saffron White, MO '3 in 1 Top, Base & Gloss'.
Above: Nail art rhinestones wheel
So, I applied my new Model's Own base coat (I got this and Blooboo for a 2 for £8 deal on at Boots!) then painted each nail a random pastel colour.

I'd like to point out that I recently purchased Saffron in White from eBay as my first white varnish (finally!) and I'm so glad I did! I'ts such a pure and wonderful white, applying perfectly with just one coat and not a chip in sight so far! At just £2 I highly recommend that you invest in this if you haven't got a good white in your collection :-)

On top of random nails I carefully stuck 3 tiny rhinestones to the edges (they stay securely on the nail varnish and are easily sealed down with top coat!) using my fingertips - fiddly but achievable business with patience! :-)

My finished nails and their glitzy extras! 
My sister's lovely design (plus MO Champagne) and the fabulous pastels!


So there's another nail digest for you :-) Hope you liked it - try out your own pastel mix, or perhaps try using nail gems - I can't stop rotating mine and making them sparkle :-P
