Obsessed With Nails and Manicure Fails!






At the moment there is no denying it, I am totally obsessed with manicuring my nails. All different colours, patterns, glitter, no glitter what ever I can get my hands on.  I also like to try out tutorials I have seen on the interweb, with varying degrees of success.  Have a look at my water marble results below... I think you will be impressed.




Mostly I upload my manicure pictures to instagram (AshlyLondon) so hop on over there to see them all but here are a few of my faves which I have had over the past few weeks.  All of them I have done myself. When I am in London I tend to go to the salon once a week for a polish change. I know sounds a lot but it is like £5 for a polish change and £12 for a gel manicure.

Sometimes I like to name my creations. Because, well, it makes me feel special.

Let me know which ones are your favourites (probably the water marbelling) and I am always on the hunt for new tutorials or nail blogs so please leave links below if you know of any

Lots of Love

  4. Pink Till You Wink is lovely :) Your water marbling looks like many of my attempts - I find it's really hit or miss whether I manage it or not! I've found it often depends of the specific polishes you use - some just never work.

  5. Pretty as a Princess, and Pink till you Wink are so pretty! It's a shame the water marbelling didn't go too well.

  6. You've gotta have your nails painted, it's like your fingers are naked without it. You should get on eBay for gel polish supplies, that's where I get all mine, super cheap!
