Happy Easter | NOTD

Happy Easter Everyone!


Easter, yet another holiday that gives us an excuse to stuff our faces full of chocolate!
As you've probably already guessed by the title, i have attempted to do some nail art (note attempted, as clearly i am not very good at nail art) to hopefully inspire some of you to try some Easter inspired nail designs of your own. So let's crack on...


As you can tell i am clearly not very good at nail art. However, it's just a bit of fun so these were the designs i came up with. My drawing skills are actually fairly good but when it comes to painting nails i posses the skills of a five year old child. Anyway just to clarify what the designs were meant to look like, the first design is a bunny rabbit, the 2nd, 3rd and 4th are Easter eggs and the 5th is a chick.



I absolutely love the Barry M  nail varnishes, (link here) they're one of my favourite brands as i find them so easy to apply and they dry super fast which is great if you're as impatient as i am. They usually only need 1 coat but i would suggest 2 just to be on the safe side. Some of the colours only really need one coat most of the time like Lemon. Peach Melba and Mint Green need 2 coats and Strawberry and Blue Moon need 2 or 3 as they are a little more transparent than the others. All five shades are super glossy pastels and they don't chip easily which i love. So i hope this maybe gave you some ideas that you could try yourself, and if you do decide to create your own Easter inspired nail art designs leave a link to them in the comments and i'll be sure to check them out.


What are you up to this Easter?
