Hey guys! Hope you're all well today and had a great weekend. I spent most of it just contasntly coughing as I still have my cold :( It's mainly just a cough now but I'm seriously fed up of it! It was so bad this last week, I struggled to paint my nails without it irritating my throat and making me cough. That's steadily got better now and I have finally been able to finish swatching these seven fabulous new polishes from Vegan Beauty Cosmetics. Vegan Beauty Cosmetics is run by a lovely lady called Effiena and as you guessed by the name, she sells vegan friendly beauty products which include nail polish. Her polishes are 5 free and cruelty free.  So lets get into the swatches!

Man will I be glad when it's the weekend again! This weekend was a bit of a write off for me and as I'm writing this it's actually Sunday night and I'm dreading work tomorrow :( can't think properly when I'm full of cold. Anyway, today's post is a classic Christmas scene but with a twist...can you tell what it is?

26 GNAI - Winter Warmth

I have another post today from 26 Great Nail Art Ideas and this week it's Winter Warmth! I had loads of ideas in my head about doing a lovely scene by the fire getting all cosy and warm for winter...but I stuck with a plain Christmas jumper design. I just didn't have the time to try anything more ambitious than this lol.

For my base I used two coats of Rudolph Red from For Your Nails Only. A gorgeous bright red with lots of flakies!!

I stamped some Christmas jumper designs from Uber Chic Christmas 01 as that's what winter is all about to me. Getting those big winter knits out and getting warm!

What would you do to represent winter warmth?

Bye for now x
