OMG guys?! Uber Chic have a brand new plate out! The OP Art Magic plate was sent to me for review by Nail-Artisan and it is amazing. This plate has some pretty cool optical illusion images but I know what I am really excited about... all the images for us holosexuals! I had to of course do a mani right away and include holo. It would be rude not to! (sorry for all the ! I am just so pumped about this plate :D )

Beach mani with Uber Chic Nautical plate - Nail-Artisan review
Hey guys. Hope you are well today and have recovered from the Monday blues. Last week I had a few days off work and went to the seaside so of course I had to do a beach themed mani. I really love how this design came out! I used the Uber Chic Nautical plate, sent to me by Nail-Artisan, which I did a little review of on Friday.

40 GNAI - Nude + colour - Fish braid- Uber chic Nautical review
Another Friday and another 40 Great nail art ideas post. This weeks prompt for me was a fish braid design! I've never done one of these before and I've always wanted to try but I didn't really think the original type fish braid would work with nude. So I went for the stencil version and decided to make it harder for myself as I didn't actually have any stencils! I attempted to make the design from straight line vinyls. I don't think I did too bad did I?

Meebox - Splash!
Wow wow wow Meebox has knocked it out of the ball park this month guys! Meebox are a monthly nail polish subscription box and they have featured on my blog a few times. Here and here. Last month we all found out that the theme for this month was Splash! and it was a full UK Indie takeover. There was a lot of speculation about who the indie would be and all the guesses were unanimous and of course correct- A England.

Jesscia Nails - Phenom swatches and review
*Press samples
Hey guys hope you are all well today! The weekend seems so long ago now :( I spent most of it wallpapering and painting. I did go out Saturday night with the other half to Frankie and Bennys! Last minute date night so that was nice. I have a few polishes to show you today from Jessica Nails UK new collection, Jessica Phenom. They were sent to me for review by Gerrard International. Jessica Phenom is a new way to get a gel look mani than lasts longer but without the use of an LED or UV lamp. There are 30 colours in the range and the Finale top coat. I was sent three new colours to review along with the top coat.

These stunning polishes are made by a lovely lady called Mei Mei and they are pastel neons. Don't you just love the little cow logo?! I'll keep the rest of this post short and sweet as I recorded a how to video on this mani, which I will link at the end.

Blogsquad Collection - 'Ard as Nails swatches and review
*Picture heavy
I have an epic post for you today guys and it's picture heavy. These polishes are from the new Blogsquad collection by 'Ard as Nails and they are just so stunning it was hard to narrow the amount of pictures down! The Blogsquad collection consists of 5 scatted holographic polishes that are all opaque in two coats, nearly one for some. 'Ard as Nails, by Soap Dodger, have been shut for a while but they will reopen this Friday with a new look website so make sure you check them out.

Diabolical Nail Varnish - Firebox.com swatches and review
Are you a fan of The Grand Budapest Hotel film? If so you are going to love this post. Firebox.com reached out to me and asked me if I would like to review their Diabolical Nail Varnish. This little box is inspired by the film, and although I've not actually seen it myself, I just found the names of these polishes so intriguing! These polishes are 5 free and vegan friendly.

Rainbow Roses - Pretty Serious and Uber chic
There has been a few incidents reported on the news this week that are truly horrendous. One of them was the terrible shooting in Orlando. I did these nails on Sunday and didn't actually hear about the sad new until Monday. It seems I live under a rock these days. I wasn't going to share this mani yet but there's a group of us on Facebook, Rainbow Pride Nails, and we are sharing our rainbow nails to pay tribute to those affected by the shooting.

Simply Nailogical inspired holo galaxy mani
Hope you all had a great weekend. I went to a BBQ on Saturday as it was my partner's brother's 40th birthday! It was a lovely day with all the family and the rain held off until we had finished the BBQ. Lucky or what! I took part in a group theme by Dressed Up In Polish recently which was a Galaxy theme. I had never done a galaxy mani before so I went for it and I'm super impressed with what I did!

40 Great Nail Art Ideas: Mint and dotting tools
This weeks prompt wasn't a great one for me so this is just a quick post. This was my third attempt at a mani! It was a tricky one as my pattern was dotting tools. Last week I had dots so I had to do something different this week.

Stamped pond mani -Barry M Lolly Gloss
I'm not normally one for sheer or jelly polishes but when Barry M released their new Lolly Gloss collection I knew I had to try some! I specifically wanted to try a pond mani which is where you have layers of polish and put something in between the layers. For examples, dots, flowers, stamping etc. I chose stamping of course!

'Ard As Nails #Hashtag collection - swatches and review
*Picture Heavy
Evening guys. I hope you had a great bank holiday weekend. I got a few jobs at home done including weeding the back garden. Don't you just hate weeds?! It seems like you get rid of them one week and they are back the next! I am not green fingered at all so I'll stick to what I know..doing my nails! I have the wonderful #Hashtag collection to show you today from 'Ard As Nails. I was super happy when the lovely Kat contacted me about reviewing this collection and she was kind enough to include some of her new cuticle oil. Let's see some swatches!
