Wah Nails hit Japan

 

Top British nail salon Wah Nails has hit Tokyo. To those who've never heard of them they are a brilliant nail salon based in Dalston, London. They also have a stand in the basement of Topshop on Oxford Street.

They are currently in Tokyo, showing the Japanese that they're not the only ones who can create spectacular nail art. For a company that was only founded last year they are doing amazingly well.

They set up a stand in the store 'Opening Ceremony' and were visited by hoards of Japanese women, many wearing Halloween outfits and even a few of the male species.

If your in the UK and want some Wah nail art of your own visit http://wah-nails.com to see more of their work and to find out how to make an appointment. I highly recommend a visit to them next time your in London.

Gyaru Nails (Pic heavy)

 

So i really wanna try out doing my own gyaru nails (partly inspired by samei getting hers done)

I really need to master making shapes outta acrylic (i already have loadsa acrylic at home)

So guys which design do you like best i think im gonna start off with the pink nails with the silver glittery tios because they’d be very simple to do then graduate onto more advanced designs.

Which designs your favourite?

 

 

Violet’s nails - review :)

Hey there. So today i received my nails from Violet in the post. So exciting!

Packaging

They were wrapped in lovely material and came fixed to a pretty material covered board. I love the way she stores them. Usually they are sold in ugly plastic packaging and they all fall out when you try to prise them out so Violets way is much more practical and a whole lot prettier.

Appearance

I've bought nails online before and found  that they didn't look like they did in the photo so i was pleasantly surprised when they arrived because they were exactly like the photo. The nail varnish used had a lovely shimmer to it and it had cute little love hearts on them as well as little painted desserts. The chocolate dripping over the tips is a lovely finishing touch.

Usability

These nails are super practical for a busy mum like me. The length is perfect long enough to look pretty but short enough for me to be able to pick up my 2 year old son without my nails scratching him. I thought the heart gems would catch on clothing etc but surprisingly they don’t.

Price

The ones i purchased amounted to about £10 which is very reasonable. In the uk it costs about that to get plain ones so i was very happy with the price especially as it includes shipping.

Durability

Well so far I've worn them while washing the dishes, having a bath, cleaning and chasing after the kids and they are still in perfect condition and they didn't come off so i would say they’re pretty durable.

So in conclusion i would say these nails are a winner. Affordable and beautiful and shipped quickly. What more could you want in a set of nails. I’ll be ordering more very soon. i would definitely recommend giving her site a visit to see what you fancy. And her blog is deffo worth a visit for any hime gyaru.

Cute nail tutorial!!

Afternoon guys!! Well today im gonna do a lush nail tutorial for you which is perfectly hime-like.

This is what the finished product will look like

What you need:

Red and white acrylic paint

acrylic flowers

Silver glitter liner

Top coat

First of all squeeze a little red and white paint into 2 seperate pots or a palette.

Now cover the surface of the nail with a little of the white paint.

Once its dry cover the entire nail with the red paint. Leave till completely dry.

Use the silver liner to draw two thin diagonal thin lines on the nail.

Do the same to the other side so that you have a lattice effect.

Use glue to apply the acrylic flowers to the nail. once dry apply topcoat and voila your done!!!

I hope that made sense lol xx

Fuyume!
