NOTD - Cute Kawaii Clouds!


Bonjour my beauts!

Can you believe we will soon be in June already? You wouldn't think so by looking out the window, I'm currently snuggled up within the confines of a fleecy jumper! Lets hope Summer, wherever she may be, decides to join us all soon.

Yesterday twas a good un, if you follow me on Twitter (@Aysh_tmb) you'll know the day was spent partaking in my favourite thing...Pampering! My lovely friend had a voucher for a spa day at The Langham Hotel followed by a delightful afternoon high tea at the Palm Court & was kind enough to take me along with her. Such an amazing experience, the whole day was simply perfect & I highly recommend you pay a visit if you can!

I thought I'd brighten up this slightly dreary weather with a nice cheerful manicure to lift the spirits! I felt a little cute Kawaii-ness was in order with a touch of pastel skittle thrown in so today I have some jolly little Kawaii Cloud nails for you! :)




Hehe what do you think? I remember seeing similar design on my IG feed a while back & I can't for the life of me remember where as I follow SO many accounts! But I remember thinking I definitely needed to try it out for myself & I just love the cutesy design!

 

For this mani I've used three different pastel cremes from the brand Miss Sporty. I never use to pay this brand much attention I'll be honest, but I am totally in love with their nail polishes! They have a great range of fab quality, pretty shades that are absolute steals at £1.99!




I noticed that Superdrug had an offer of three polishes for a fiver so I snapped up these three pretty creme pastels from the Clubbing Colour Range. I couldn't decide on one shade so I used all three in the mani haha!





On the thumb & little finger I applied two coats of Green Whisperer (155), on the index & ring fingers two coats of Lilac (190) & on the middle finger two coats of Lemon Drop (140) All three applied perfectly, Lemon Drops formula being slightly thicker than the others.



For my cute little Kawaii clouds I grabbed my trusty dotting tool & with some white polish, dotted on a circle of 6-7 dots on the centre of each nail before filling in the middle with more white polish. I think the pigment in the Green Whisperer polish is stronger than the others as it tinted my little Kawaii cloud a pale green!





Next for the eyes I used a lightly smaller dotting tool & No7 Duck Egg Blue, a pale pastel blue crème. To create the Kawaii look in the eyes I added two smaller white dots inside the blue using the Barry M white nail art pen.





Finally I used the Barry M nail art pen in black to create the little smiles on my cheeky clouds before adding a slick of topcoat to finish.

I hope you liked the Kawaii nails my lovelies! Thanks as always for reading. Don't forget to enter my GIVEAWAY for a chance to win the Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation I recently reviewed!



Lotsa love to ya!
