Thought it'd be nice to have a thread to share when we're proud of our nails and make up.

These are my nails from my graduation yesterday. My first time using nail wraps so they're not perfect, but I'm happy with them.

I have a pearl white on at the moment but usually have French manicure with black tips.

I absolutely love cats eye nails at the moment. This is my current set.

I’m jealous of all your lovely nails.My first attempt at the Lily and Fox wraps was a disaster😱It look so easy on the tutorials
Please tell me it gets easier.

My first attempt was awful as well, but now I'm on set #4 and I think I have it down now. Basically clean nails, use a base coat, press the wraps on, file off the excess and top coat plus capping the ends. I've got a week out of my last 3 sets and I could've made them last longer but I fancied a change!

I now have on this set that dh thought was palm trees! I can see what he means but I thought I was being autumnal with seed heads 🤔

I'm intrigued by the nail wraps. It looks lovely on you all. I have had some disastrous attempts from Glazie and then gave up on the idea. Maybe I should try another brand. Sassy Saints are all over my instagram.

It is a hardgel I am not sure of the colour. I will ask at the salon next time I go!

@Ihavenoclu I keep seeing Blissie and Miss Sophie adverts. I havent tried them but you'd hope they're all fairly similar in terms of quality (I'd have thought they were all made in the same factory!)
