First tutorial! - Shooting star manicure :)

Hey dolls!

When i started blogging i wanted to do tutorials but never got round to it and ended up doing hauls. This tutorial is a shooting star nail look that i created last weekend when i was spending some time on my nails, i had loads of people comment about them so i thought i would share :)

So the products and tools you'll need for this look are- (you can use other brands but these are the ones i used in this tutorial)

• No7 So smooth base coat
• No7 Stay perfect in Minty Fresh (light baby blue)
• No7 Stay perfect in Sing the blues (Dark slightly metallic blue)
• Seche Vite clear topcoat
• Collection 2000 silver glitter eyeliner
• Perfect 10 nailart stickers- stars
• long thin nail art brush

Lets begin :)

Step 1: starting with clean, filed nails apply a base coat, here i used No7 So smooth but any will do.

 Step 2: Next apply two coats of No7's Sing the blues polish and allow to dry.

  Step 3: Using the thin nail art brush start at one of the lower corners of the nail and paint three slightly curved lines that taper off. These must all start from the same place the create the stars trail.

 Step 4: Using the Silver glitter liner start from the same lower corner as before and create 2 lines that go between the three you've already created, it doesn't matter if they aren't perfect lines as a more disbursed glitter line will make it look more like a cosmic trail :)

Step 5: Once the glitter is dry apply a thin layer of clear gloss this will lock the gloss into place. My advice wuld be to keep an eye on your brush as you may need to wipe any glitter that may transfer on to it. The last thing you need is to contaminate your clear gloss with glitter.

 Step 6: Once dry you can apply the star stickers at the lower corner where your lines start- make sure all corners are stuck down on to the nail.

Step 7: Apply a clear gloss top coat to seal in the sticker and give the nail a glossy finish.

  Step 8: Sit back and admire your super pretty shooting star nails.

Hope you enjoyed this tutorial :)

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year Dolls!
I'm sure as the clock struck the beginning of the new year you all made resolutions that you hope to keep the whole year through. Well i'm no different so here are a few i have made and hope to keep.

1. To Blog more often, i think about this blog alot and i want to make a success of it but to do this i need to invest more time blogging.
2. Buy less. I can't promise to not spend but i realise i spend way too much money on cosmetics and this has to change.
3. Use what i have. I'm hoping to do tutorials and Face of the day (when i find my camera!) 
4. Go to the gym everyday and lose weight! (i think this features in everyones resolutions in some form or another!)

Love Jo x
