nail art

What started as a vague dabbling has become a full-scale obsession! Gem Fatale, WAH Nails and fuckyeahprettynails are to be held responsible...

I've added this page so that I can keep all of my nail art images in one place, as it's quite useful for me to be able to look back at them when I'm feeling uninspired and also to remind myself what products I've used together. It also might come in useful to anyone else who's interested in fancying up their fingers!

Some of these images have been featured in previous blog posts (they're linked to them if they have) and some have never been posted before.
