    I had my last exam today. I’m so so so happy to have them over, even though I think I failed 3 out of the 4.
    After the exam some friends and I went out for a pub lunch and just chatted for nearly 2 hours which was so much fun as I’ve been stuck inside for nearly 3 weeks. I was planning on going out with my friends tonight but decided to stay in eating, sleeping and watching movies since I haven’t really had a chance just to chill for the so long, but I’m looking forward to going out tomorrow – it should be a crazy night!

    Simple Ruffian

    This one’s a bit messy. I’m terrible at doing tips or ruffian in any capacity let alone attempting to get the tiny little stripes matte so it went all lumpy and bumpy but I quite like it, I’m going to attempt at again in the future. After all, practice makes perfect.

     
    The base colour is Barry M Cyan Blue with one coat of BYS Tinkerbell to get the shimmer, then a top coat of NYC.
    The dark blue is No7 Betty Blues and I used E.L.F Matte finisher to matte out the ruffian strips.

    Over the Christmas season, I’m going to be doing less manicures. I’m aiming to stick to a post every other day.
    I couldn’t get the lighting right for this picture so the colours are a bit cruddy, sorry.

    The title isn’t related in any way to the post or the mani but I’m going to karaoke tonight and I’m just very excited about it!

    I just think it looks like the kind of pattern you would see on silk and that reminds me of Geisha’s.

    No7 Poolside Blue

    I always find No7 polishes a bit frustrating. They have some great colours but I hate the tall bottles and the brushes. It’s impossible to keep the rim of the bottle clean and the brushes don’t spread over the nail as you swipe so you have to swipe at least 3 times to cover the nail.
    But, as I said, the colours are amazing and this one’s no exception. It’s the boldest blue I own and I love it.
