    Lovely, where did you get the beads? I've been looking for some small enough to do caviare style with them (I used 100's&1000's one day :o )

    I got them on eBay. I can PM you the name of the seller if you like.

    Yes please :)

    Also if anyone knows where to pick them upin Dublin CC it would be great! Very impatient waiting on the postman :o

    Musical.x you're putting us all to shame with your extraordinary nail art! *jealous*

    The thread has been busy lately. I've not been on since the other day and going to remedy that by painting my bare nails now! Watch this space for a picture :)

    China Glaze - For Audrey and some no brand caviar style beads on my ring fingers. Wonder how long it will be before the temptation to pick the beads off becomes too much...

    (Without and with flash)

    I'm not sure if this was discussed before but there is a lot of drama over the caviar manicures. A good example by Ciate of how not to do business!

    Got three Essie polishes for 10 euro in TK Maxx today :D Got Coat Azure which is a kind of grey blue, another blue one which is a white-ish baby blue one and a clear strengthening coat.

    Then I got three Sally Hanson polishes in Dealz for 1.49 each, all different shades of pink. I love a bargain.

    I am going to paint my nails today :D squee I can't wait. (off to the docs first tho boo :() They will look so perty for my birthday tomorrow.

    Am wondering tho, does anyone know anything (obviously ye do!) about cuticle sticks/cuticle removers that don't cost many monies. I have some serious cuticles and they can be a dick to push back without a stick etc so looking to get a stick or even better remover to help with the polish application process.

    Doing my nails already takes FOREVERZ!!!! So I want them to be perfect (they are going to take twice as long this time as I am going to try some fancy nail art on them when the polish is on :D

    Have you tried the Essence removers? the studio nail cuticle remover is fairly good! leaves mine pretty nice :) I use a cuticle nipper too to make it look neater but they can be a bit dear.

    I can't do anything with my cuticles 'cause that whole pushing 'em back thing makes me feel physically sick. I don't know what it is but my tummy heaves! :o

    I haven't tried them but I heard they can leave the skin around your fingers looking really oily.

    I have them, they do work but I find the dropper lets out too much of the product and it's horribly greasy which put me off of using it.

    Barry M mint green. I only ever wear this when my nails are nice and long, don't think it looks great on short nails.

    Well I kept picking at the caviar beads until they all came off :rolleyes: So I did this manicure this morning instead. The base colour is Watermelon by Essie and I used a Konad plate with Barry M Strawberry Ice Cream for the leopard print.

    Ciate 'Bon Bon' free with last month's Marie Claire magazine- the perfect grey lilac- a spin on neutral shades. Looks great in any season. Excuse the fake tab stained cuticles!
