the girl behind the screen♥

I'm Kimi :) Your average eighteen year old residing in sunny UK who loves doing her nails after finally breaking the horrible habit of biting them.

I am by no means a professional, I'm strictly amateur, but I enjoy all the nail art I do :) I really do hope this blog is an inspiration to all you nail-biters out there - this is proof! The habit can indeed be broken :D

As Cee Lo Green would say ‘Bright Lights Bigger City’. I think I saw these done by someone on tumblr a while ago and thought I’d give it a shot. Can’t remember who though D: Sorry about the wear on the tips, even though I’ve only worn these a day :( I really need to invest in a good top coat!

Been wanting to try out these bad boys for a while now; these were inspired by Katy Perry’s hilarious music video for Last Friday Night (Which I totally think you should all check out if you haven’t already, if not for Kathy Beth Terry & the laughs then at least for the 15 seconds or so that the supermegafoxyawesomehot Darren Criss graces the screen). I swear that man is a god. & oh dear, it seems I’ve somewhat let out my StarKid obsession……whoops.

BESTPARTYEVERWHOO!

Sorry I haven’t put up any pics recently. I had a major case of nails chipping & snapping so they’ve been slathered with nothing but nail envy & top coat for a few days! They’re all really short now which is vair disappointing :( I’ve got prom tomorrow and I still need to come up with an appropriate design xD

If I said this was my dress:

(Not me in the pic btw) Anyone have any nail ideas?

One of my favourite manis so far, just a random floral design :)

These nails are dedicated to one of my favourite cartoons ever; Avatar the last airbender! And I mean the tv series, not Shyamalan’s rubbish movie knock-off which I haven’t even bothered to watch because it had such bad reviews D: Please excuse the cuticles, I haven’t been looking after them recently :P

I know it’s been a while since I last did my nails but don’t worry, I’ve got loads of designs coming up soon :) Hope you’re all looking forward to them! :) If anyone has any requests you’d like me to get around to, chuck a message in my ask box & I’d be more than happy to try them out! :D

Hi! :) To answer your question.. The bright green is called "Neon Green" (lol) it's from a brand called Kleancolor. <3

ahhh thank you for the reply! haha I really think I need to try and get myself some kleancolor polishes, they keep popping up everywhere for me! :) thanks!

I had an almost-empty bottle of clear polish so I decided I might as well try out frankening again. My polish collection lacks any decent shades of green which prompted me to put together this polish - it came out as a lovely dark teal with a slight shimmer :) It was quite sheer, this is around 3 coats. I used some unnamed sheer yellow and Ulta3 Hollywood to create this :) First two photos are outdoors in direct sunlight and the last one is indoors.

Now, anyone got any naming ideas?
