Dia de los muertos


I am forever changing my the style of my nails, it's a bit of an obsession! Last year for Christmas I received a set of Nails Supreme Nail Art pens and they are definitely my fave present! They are really easy to use and come with a small piece of metal allowing you to clean the nib if they get clogged. You can also re-use them, so when the colour runs out, you just have to clean the bottle and re-fill them with any colour you wish! I definitely would recommend them and they can be purchased here for only £19.99.

I regularly use these pens to create different designs. Below shows the particular nail varnishes I used to create the vine and skull design. I always use Maybelline Salon Manicure top coat as it gives a really nice high shine finish!

This is how it turned out! It was quite difficult drawing the skull on my own nails...but where there is a will, there's a way!

Let me know what you think :)

Starting out....

So, Hi everyone! Thought I would start blogging to share with everyone 'my creative life' hence the blog name (La Vida Creativa - the same but in Spanish ha!). I will be posting a variety of things I enjoy doing in my spare time such as my paintings, nail art and any other little bits of design. I hope you enjoy my work and give me a cheeky follow if you do! :)
