This is about 3 coats of Juicy Jules, but I love how much you can build it up. This means that you can have a small sprinkle of glitter over the nail, or you can build it up to have full on blingy nails (I like the latter).
Grace Green was lovely to apply, it dried quickly and it only needed 1 or 2 coats.
I bet there is a lot of love for Juicy Jules out there?! LOVE IT.
I also did a bit of baking today. I originally set out to make red velvet cupcakes, but basically I didn't put enough cocoa/red food colouring in (and NO bicarb of soda, salt and vinegar in- disaster) so they just turned out as vanilla fairy cakes. I was also going to make marshmallow cupcakes, so I decided to turn them into them instead! I scooped out the top middle bit of the cake and put melted marshmallows in (yum). I then made vanilla frosting and put a few marshmallows in there too. As I've mentioned before, I don't really like cake (I'm more of a feeder than an eater!) so I will let my parents and Connor eat them. Bit of a hassle! Never mind, Mam has tried one and said it was lovely, hopefully my Dad and Connor will think the same!
(melted marshmallow, yummmm)
Have you ever had any baking disasters? I'm normally a good cook/baker, but everyone has 'off' days where everything goes wrong!
Lots of love

Such a pretty holographic glitter polish! Those marshmallow cupcakes look amazing, might have to give them a try soon :) Also, loving the Christmas theme and it's not too early, only 44 days until the big day :) x

ReplyDeleteEmily Has Dimples x- I think they are perfect for someone with a massive sweet tooth! Oooh sounds lovely! Is that one of the ones where it says 'special effects' on the lid or something?

ReplyDeleteLove the nail varnishes - just makes me want Juicy Jules even more! I'm really into khaki nails at the moment, so lovely for Autumn/Winter. Just looking at those cupcakes makes me salivate and although they weren't what you were planning, they look AMAZING! (Melted marshmallow...om nom nom *dashes to shops for marshmallow supplies*). The blog's festive make over is really cute too!
