Here is another currently wearing. I am very behind with this, I am sorry. I am trying my hardest to get these posts about because I have done so little blogging this year. What with my YouTube channel, I am really struggling keeping up.
 
Here I have LA Colors Never Ending, this is such a gorgeous colour. I am a huge fan of this polish. I picked this up in a shop called Beauty Base. I took part in a claws for a cause collaboration, it was stress. I decided I would do it football related because the day this was posted it was Tottenham's potential biggest game of the season. Little did we know, that we would actually get to the champions league final. Now let me tell you, this game against Manchester City was one of the most stressful games I have ever watched. We ended up losing 4-3 but went through on away goals. Crazy, how appropriate these nails were.

Once again we have another nail art collab, this is an awareness collab. I am rolling these out this year. I might do a huge post of how many of these I have done.
This is a awareness collaboration for Cerebral Palsy, this is part of the claws of the clause nail art awareness page. I used W7 Neon Green. This isn't neon at all. This was quite a watery polish which I did expect when I used this at first. W7 is probably a brand that is readily available but sometimes people dismiss them. This was three coats and I liked it. I am also happy with how the butterfly is because I have found them quite hard when I have done them on my nails in the past.
 
Here is the amazing Cerebral Palsy awareness collab.

Here is another currently wearing, here is once again another collab. I am on a roll in these nail art collabs in 2019.


Here is Avon Island Goddess, this is a semi matte green. If you know me I am not sure if I like mattes. I am not fully sold on them just yet. But saying that, this polish s a really pretty green. I do love green polishes and my nail art was cute too.
 
This collaboration was for the Claws for a cause, I suggest you all go and follow that Instagram because it is amazing. Every month there will be a brand new theme, I am really a fan of it. This month was Heart Awareness. This was something I am quite close to, I decided I would do this because my Bapoose (Greek for Grandad) at the time of doing this was recently recovering from a pacemaker being put in. He has had quite a fair few cardic/heart attacks. I thought I would do this to honour him. He is an amazing man. I used green because he has an allotment, well he calls it an alockment. No matter how many times we tell him that its wrong, he still calls it that.

BLOGMAS 18 | #01 | Currently Wearing | #253

So here is another collab I was involved in, this is an awareness collab. I really love joining in these.
 
Here is my solo shot from the awareness collab. This collab was for Tia (@jaffacakefreak) this was all getting awareness for getting stem cell/bone marrow donors. This was in the hope for people to register on the donor list. I used Technic Seashell. This is a gorgeous polish, I thought it was so beautiful. Seeing as when I did this, it was near Halloween. We had all done the blood theme, I thought the dripping of blood was quite gruesome, but I really like it. I also did blood splattering on the nail, also I have got a ribbon too. Then some bones which represented the bone marrow.
 
Here is all the beautiful nails that everyone who was involved in the nail art collab.

This is a very special currently wearing. Keep reading to see why.
 
I was absolutely honoured to be invited to participate in the Cancer Awareness Collab by the amazing Chloe over at TippedOffNails. Click the link to find out more about her story and see her amazing swatches. Chloe is 6 months clear of cancer and was running race for life when this was posted. It is amazing to be a part of such an amazing community. The only prompt was to use the ribbon and paint your nails any colour you wanted. I used Miss Beauty Mermaid, which I got from Home Buys for £1.99 or £1. It is absolutely stunning, this polish will be up there for sure as a favourite at the end of the year.
                   
Here is the amazing collage, its incredible how a community can come together for something like this. The nail art community is so good on instagram, I know instagram has changed what with the algorithms and stuff which isn't great. But I have spoken to a lot of amazing people on there and hopefully it can only grow and get bigger.

This currently wearing is a special one. I was asked to be a part of a Brain Tumour Awareness nail collab. All you needed to do was have a grey nail polish and have the ribbon on your nails somewhere. That is what I did, scroll down to see the full collage. There was a lot of amazing people involved in this collab. I can't wait to do more, I am very excited to see what happens this year.
 
 
I used Models Own Lunar Grey which I have been planning to wear for ages and just haven't got round to wearing it. I absolutely loved this nail polish, it is incredible. I wasn't sure at first whether it would suit my skin tone but I instantly fell in love with this beauty. I just used a white nail polish for the rest of the design, I have a small ribbon and some flowers. I also wrote love too, I am surprised how well that came out as I am usually rubbish at writing words. But I think you need love especially when you are going through something so horrible as cancer.
