Hi everyone!
Happy New Year!
So this week has been tough as I returned to work after maternity leave.
Alina is only 8 months old so it’s not been easy. But my husband and I are doing shared parental leave so that means he is now at home with the kids for a few months.
Im lucky in that I am able to work part time, but it’s still horrible leaving the little ones for long days.
But returning to work has meant that I can spend my commutes working on my blog posts. So this is my first post of the year and fingers crossed I can keep things going.
I was gifted OPI Check out the old geysirs for Christmas and I couldn’t wait to try it out so I’ve used it in this mani.
You know me, I love an unusual blue!
I also received UberChic Beauty Unicorn Love as a Christmas present so I’ve given it a whirl. It has so many beautiful and fun stamping images.
After starting out with 2 coats of the OPI and Barry M Bubblegum as my base colours I then got straight into the stamping.

As usual I used my Born Pretty Store white stamping polish, it really is the best white for stamping.
I’m pleased with how the images transferred onto the nail, even those tiny stars came out ok.

I finished up with my trusty Glisten & Glow topcoat and was good to go.
I am obsessed with the unicorn theme at the moment, I know it’s been a bit of a fad lately but I really do love it!
Thanks for stopping by!
