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

Since I got back from India I’ve been recovering from a nasty case of the flu so I’m sorry about the large delay in posts D:

The wedding was absolutely amazing. I somehow managed to forget to take my camera so I’m waiting on photos from others otherwise I would have posted some for you all to see as soon as I got back!

On their wedding day it is customary (in this particular indian culture) for close family and friends to slather the bride and groom in turmeric paste - which was incredibly fun however I can’t say my cousin enjoyed it all too much ;) Needless to say, my hands, nails and cuticles also suffered and turned a rather vibrant hue of yellow. I didn’t think you guys would appreciate seeing yellowed cutes all that much so I waited until all yellowness had gone, haha.

For a more in-depth explanation about the rituals and other events that took place at this wedding, check out Niki’s tumblr (Just in case any of you might be interested. I thought it was quite a fascinating read :) )

And enough of my blabbering - time for me to get back into some nail art!
