Hey everyone! It's almost a year since I did one of these posts and as I'm doing nails at
Pastille nail bar in Leeds tomorrow (14th December) I thought it would be a good time to post all the nails I've been doing on other people. These are only over the past couple of months because I'm not very good at documenting it but hopefully you still get an idea! Don't forget you can come in tomorrow for walk-in appointments and I'll be there from 10-4 if you'd like any of my designs, or if you'd like christmas nails! I'll put the rest of the nails after the jump otherwise it'll be a bit long.

What do you think? Which design of mine would you like me to do on you? Let me know in the comments!

Hey everyone! I know you're probably expecting the last of my 'Which is Best?' series today, which would have been about matte top coats. I shall be doing it next weekend instead due to some technical difficulties so keep an eye out for that. Today's post is a little different. As you will see, these are not my nails. I have a tonne of posts lined up for you, so don't panic that I'm not doing my nails or anything like that. My lovely friend Natalie wanted to make an appearance on my blog, and help me out with some of my product reviews. You may recognise her nails from my
YouTube tutorials, as she is often my guinea pig. It's a bit like a guest post, except I actually did the nails!
To do this design I used
Born Pretty Store's Sweet Color nail polish in
Shade #105* on the alternate nails. This was 2 easy coats. Unlike the picture on their website shows, this is actually a very opaque creme polish, rather than a translucent one.
Once that was dry I applied some
Fake Tattoos* (see picture above) to the nail. I've never used nail tattoos before and I'm surprised at how simple they are to apply. All you have to do is cut, peel and apply some wet kitchen roll to your nail to transfer the design and you're done! I used the hearts and the bows from the bottom middle set.
I then applied Elegant Touch Patterned Colour Wash Wraps* (see picture above) to the remaining nails. This was my first experience using nail wraps and I was expecting to absolutely hate it. I've actually had this wraps for months because I was so wary of using them. Luckily I was proved completely and utterly wrong. These are super easy to apply, super easy to remove creases from, and they last well too. I would 100% recommend these for those of you who want nail art but don't have the time or confidence to do it yourself. You can get them
here for just £5!
Finally, once I was done applying the nail wraps, I applied
these gorgeous peach studs* (#5) from
Born Pretty Store. They've recently just got in a tonne of new coloured studs and I ordered pretty much all of them. They're just so irresistible! And they definitely lived up to expectations. These are not only a brilliant size but also the colour doesn't come out when you apply topcoat as is often the case with coloured studs.
What do you think? I hope you didn't mind seeing some different nails today!

Hey everyone! So, as I mentioned in my last post, I currently don't have a laptop. :( I have about 10 posts done for you but I can't edit them and I can't get them off my old laptop just yet. I was meant to be starting a nail challenge this week but unfortunately I can't, so I will hopefully be catching up next week if I can somehow get photoshop!
I've decided instead then that ill post the only thing I can from my phone, and that's other people's nails, ones from my Instagram or ones about to go on my Instagram (@onenailtorulethemall) so here's a collection:
I really enjoy doing other people's nails, I know some people prefer to stick with their own but i'd love to do it professionally! If you want to know any colours just ask :)
Hope you like them! Let me know what you think in the comments.
