Texture Jelly Sammich!

Hey all!

Yes, I've been away for quite a while now! Been swamped with school crap :( and been so stressed!

I had to force myself to do something on my nails today, even though I'm coming up with the cold! wahhhh :(

I wanted to do something lazy...what lazier than just dotting on a design?! lol!

I did a tectured jelly sandwich, painted my nails with a base coat of Barry M's - limited ed A and one of the new textured polish called - Countess :) then topped it off with another coat of the sheer jelly pink!

Here it is :)

What do you think!? I love how the texture still shows through the coat of pink :) I love texture!

Thanks for reading :)

Bye for now!

Swatcher - O.P.I - Vampsterdam & Nail art!

Hey ladies,

What a lovely rainy sunday this is (sarcasm!) I've not been in the mood to study at all, which is terrible since I have an exam in less than 3 weeks! HELP?!?!

I was looking at my nail polish stash and I don't own more than 6 O.P.I polishes and one of them happens to be Vampsterdam, I haven't even used this polish once! OMG! So I decided to show you a swatch of it and some simple nail art on top :)

The colour is so lovely! It's like a purpley plum colour with a kind of silvery frosty colour running through it! The formula is good, two easy coats for full coverage and drying time is normal.

Here it is

I loved the colour so much that I did some cute little hearts on it using a small dotting tool and Barry M's - Caramel :)

The colours go so well together, right!? :D Love how it turned out! What do you ladies think?

Thanks for reading!

Bye for now!

Awesome Bluey Gradient + Stamping!

Hey Ladies,

Been posting every day since Monday, proud of me!? This is a first for me!

It seems like all the gradients I'm doing is making me enjoy painting my nails more often! The possibilities are endless :)

So far I did a green gradient (HERE) and a pink gradient (HERE) and now it's time for a blue gradient! I did some stamping on top of the blue gradient to add an extra effect :)

Here is the gradient!

I added a wavey design to make it look like the ocean :) love how it turned out!

What do you guys think of this bluey gradient? :)

Thanks for reading!

Swatcher - BarryM Gelly's - Keylime!

Hey Girls!

As you all know I love the colour green loads and I've mentioned that a lot! I have literally found my perfect green :) And its Barry M's new gelly summer polish, the colour Keylime!!!! OMG best green ever!!

I find it a bit streaky if the first layer is thick so I applied a thin coat then a thicker one to give a better coverage! Love the shine I get when its fully dried!

Here are my swatches :)

Cute neon green crochet heart :)

Seriously in love with this green, its my all time number one Barry M colour as well as my favorite green!

What do you think of the Barry M Gelly's??

Thanks for reading!

Bye for now!

Swatcher ~ O.P.I ~ Pussy Galore!

Hey all!

I'm sure you've all seen many many swatches of the O.P.I sand effect polishes but who cares?! you guys haven't seen my one yet!

Today, I have for you all Pussy Galore....okay for immature people like me this cracks me up and the colour is a light pink which doesn't even help...LOL >_<

I love the bottle so much, just had to take a cute picture with all the crochet hearts I'm addicted to making!

I have two coats on my nails, its really textured and omg I couldn't stop rubbing my nails on my lips and on the edge of the table and using my nails just scratching them!!!! These are wonderful!! I want moreeeeeeeee!!

The only down side is that taking it off is like taking off glitter....a pain in the arse!

Here are a few swatches :)

What do you guys think of textured nail polish?

Thanks for reading!

Stars And Hearts!

Hey girls,

Just a random snippet of what I've painted on my nails this week, I have a base colour of Gosh - Miss Mole on which is a lovely light brown! I took a picture with flash on which doesn't really show the true colour but that don't matter!

A lovely one coater here and it dried super fast which is always a good thing!

I decided to stamp stars on top just for a different feel and I used a nice silver colour :)

The pictures I've taken were done while I was at college and I was crocheting 3D hearts and thought I should totally use it as a prop! :D

And I instagrammed this one :) Follow me on instagram at Akacherry10

Thank you all for reading, what do you think?

Bye for now!

Red Lovable Skittle!!

Hey girlies (and Mr Dork! <3)

I was sorting out my stash the other day to prepare for the "how do you store your polish?" post and I found loadsa red shades I haven't really used together!

Therefore, I decided to create a random skittle using the shades of red I had!

Here art thou results :D (ooOoOo get me using Shakespearean language!)

Pinky - I decided to do a floral design!

Ring - I wanted to do something simple, so small dots!

Middle - I did a gradient and then used a purple to do a heart!

Index - Magnetic red, with a flower sticker!

What do you all think of my skittle? It was so easy and fun to achieve, I would totally do this again with other colours!

Thanks for reading!

Bye for now!

Just random I guess!

Thanks for reading!

Ombre Hearts!

Hey guys!

Valentines day is not far off! Woooo! All the love birds get together and sing! haha...

Today I'm feeling in a pretty lovey dovey mood and I know why and so does he...haha!

I just had to do something on my nails to mark off the first of a few valentines designs I have prepared!

I love how this manicure turned out and it will be a shame to wipe it off when it starts chipping...plus who knew my right hand is so artistically skilled at handling a dotting tool so steadily!

Anyways here are the pics!!
