How I Prep My Cuticles & Natural Nails for Gel Polish

How I Prep My Cuticles & Natural Nails for Gel Polish

The biggest struggle I see with anyone painting their own nails at home or with beginner nail technicians, is cuticle and natural nail prep. This is such an important aspect of the nail service, as it can make or break the end result! I want to start off by saying, there really is no major right or wrongs when it comes to selecting tools or methods for nail prep, as long as it’s being done…

8 Types of Knickers Every Woman Should Own

8 Types of Knickers Every Woman Should Own

Ahh… underwear.. Something we all wear every day but how much thought do we actually put into it. For years, I’ve stuck with the good ol’ brief and occasional boy shorts style. That was until one day I accidentally picked up a pack of hipsters and realised the joy in being able to mix and match! I begun my journey of trying new styles with different types of clothing and I’m suddenly blown away…

Weekly Wants: Tech Upgrades

Weekly Wants: Tech Upgrades

Ahh technology..how I both love and hate technology. I’m not whiz kid when it comes to all the latest bits and pieces but I wouldn’t be without some of my beloved tech. If you read my last blog post about my vision board (read all about it here), then you’ll know that reigniting my blog and YouTube this year is a huge goal of mine so I feel like a tech upgrade is lingering right around the corner…

My 2021 Vision Board - and how you can make one too!

My 2021 Vision Board – and how you can make one too!

One thing I’ve learnt over the years is that visualisation is one of the best things to help you achieve your goals, dreams and aspirations. Ok… I’m not saying that if you lie in bed and daydream all day about being a millionaire with Harry Styles as your boyfriend that it’s just going to magically come true. I do think though visualising your goals and seeing those motivations every day can help…

Hello 2021 - Goodbye 2020

Hello 2021 – Goodbye 2020

Congrats guys! We’ve made it through 2020; the year of lockdowns, corona virus and netflix binging. And I have to say, about bloody time. Ok. I get it. Corona Virus and all the terrible things it has brought isn’t going to instantly go away but for me, the beginning of 2021 sparks a new hope that things are going to slowly get better from here. (Also, how strange to be back blogging in 2021!) I…

Peacci Brand Rep

So excited to announce I'm now a Peacci Brand rep! 🙌🏼 Here's a little post all about it! 😘

Peacci Brand Rep

With salon’s closed around the world (yes, it still sounds crazy to me) and mine included, I’ve been trying to rack my brains for anything that may help both my clients and followers keep their nails healthy and gorgeous during quarantine. And since we’re all sitting at home being bored out of our brains, there’s no time like the present to upgrade your nail skills.

Tortoiseshell Nail Art Tutorial

Tortoiseshell Nail Art Tutorial ft. Light Elegance and The Gel Bottle

Textures are taking the nail industry by storm at the moment. Opals, jade stones, marbles, cow print (yes, cow print) and of course, tortoiseshell. And I have to admit.. I’m obsessed with it and so are my clients.

So I thought I’d experiment with creating this look and film it all in the process.

Life Happens...

Life Happens…

You know that feeling when you blink and suddenly 4 years has passed you by? Yeah? Me too.

4 years since I was last making little blog posts for this space on the internet. 4 years since I was taking pictures in my bedroom of flat-lay beauty products. 4 years since I was making the most cringe-worthy YouTube videos.

Well, guess what? I’m back and it’s going to be more flat-lays and…

3rd August 2016

3rd August 2016. That was when I last wrote a blog post. Nearly 1 year ago! I didn’t intentionally stop blogging or stop enjoying working on my little space on the internet. Life just simply become busy and as we all know, time flies when you’re having fun! I seem to have blinked and my online baby has become forgotten about and neglected. Well, by writing this post, it’s my way of slapping…

Especially when you meet the person you want to spend the rest of your life. But for now, a girl can…

Picking The Best Front Door Security And Aesthetic Appeal

Picking The Best Front Door Security And Aesthetic Appeal

We don’t do a lot of thinking about doors, really. They’re just one of those things in a home that are there. Like oxygen, you don’t give a lot of thought to a door until it isn’t there. At that point, it becomes all you can think about. It’s how you get in and out of your house and, more importantly, how you can ensure that you ensure that other people do or don’t. Internal doors are one thing –…
