My name is Jo I am in my 20s and officially a makeup beauty Addict. I have always loved playing with makeup. However It was at the beginning of this year that I finally discovered my passion. I first got into makeup in a big way when I searched for something on Youtube. I typed in the search and found all these girls talking about and experimenting with makeup. From that day on I was hooked. I have made a couple of really good friends on youtube who encouraged me to start blogging. So as I am unable to make videos myself here I am. It's early days but I have some interesting things to come. If you have anything to say about any of my posts please feel free to leave a comment. Thanks Jo x

Nails Of The Day (hopefully week)

I thought it was about time I updated again and as I painted my nails yesterday I thought it was the perfect opportunity to do my first NOTD.


I used Nails inc Dover Street. This is a nice deep lilac mauve purple. Not quite sure how to describe it lol....Here are some photos.








I have quite a detailed nail routine so if you want me to do another post showing exactly what I do then let me know in the comments.

I also have a question. I am right handed so is it normal that I can paint my right hand (obviously using my left) easier than I can paint my left using the hand i use to write with..? I think this is just me. If you have the same issue or any tips to make my life easier please let me know because I am fedup with having 1 hand better than the other. The photos above are of my right hand.

Another problem I have is my nail varnish NEVER lasts on me. Normally I can just about make it last 2-3 days. Last time my right hand lased 4 days which is excellent for me. If it always lasted that long i'd b over the moon.

Like i said i painted my nails yesterday and I've already had to touch up my left hand. So again any tips leave them in the comments.

I have been told OPI Chip Skip is good?

I am also thinking of trying OPI Rapid dry spray between layers?

Any thoughts on anything in this post would be much appreciated.

Thanks for reading and hope you enjoyed.

  2. That's a pretty colour!! To make it last, get something like China Glaze No Chip top coat. I really love it! Seche Vite is an excellent fast dry top coat, you apply it once you've done all your layers.
