No Water Nail Marbling

Valentines day is tomorrow and I decided I wanted some pretty nails for the occasion thought of a few different things to do, but finally decided on some pink nail marbling! However the whole water nail marbling look like a real faf! So I came up with my own technique!

All you need for this is a few different colour nail polishes and an old Biro!



Then splodge a drops of each colour on your nail. Using the biro swirl the nail polish around on the nail, so that the whole nail is covered!



This is how it looked once I had done this for each nail, needed a bit of neatening up!


Finally I put a bit of glitter top coat on top! They still need neatening up however round the edges!


Even though you can't see the marbling effect clearly in the last picture it is there! Overall I was really happy with the results and it was super easy! So you should all give it a go!

Plaiting up a storm

I just love plaits (or braids), I think they are so pretty and very useful for getting you hair out of your face. Not only that, but most are very easy to achieve like the basic plait, the fishtail or the french plait, and all are simple yet look really beautiful. They are also good for pretty much any occasion, you can wear them everyday or for special occasions like weddings. Plaits can make another hairstyle look more interesting, for instance by incorporating them into a bun or ponytail.
Below are a few of my favorite examples of different types of plaits.



 I just love them!
