Guest Blogger - Chelsey from My Beauty Full Adventure
Hey girls! Today I have an exiting guest post to share with you! I have met the most kind and friendly girl and her name is Chelsey. When I asked if anyone would be interested in guest blogging on my blog, she messaged me and I was like YES! This is my first ever guest post so I hope you all like it and go over and give Chelsey's blog some love to!

Hey ladies! Let me introduce myself. My name is Chelsey and
I write the Canadian Beauty Blog, My Beauty Full Adventure. If the
name isn’t enough of a giveaway I write about beauty products, amongst other
things, and broadcast out of Windsor, Ontario. I have been part of the beauty
blogging community for about 2 years now, and have loved every minute of it! On
my blog you can find hauls, nail of the days, subscription box and other
product reviews. Feel free to leave me a comment or send me an email with post
requests, I am always looking to write about new things!
Now I am not normally one for nail art because 1) I am lazy
and, 2) I’m not that creative. However, when Alyssa asked me to guest post I
knew I couldn’t just show any plain old nail polish swatch. Alyssa showcases
some amazing nail art so I wanted to try and be artsy as well. After scouring Pinterest
for hours…literally…I found something I knew I would be able to pull off. I
chose to attempt a “straw manicure” because what is more beginner than sticking
straws in nail polish and stamping them on my nails? Although my circles are
not perfect, I am loving the turnout, and can see myself recreating this again
and again.
To achieve this look I started with a white base. This
consisted of 1 coat of an unnamed Revlon white polish, then 2 coats of
Sally
Hansen’s Polar Bear. Once that was dry I used 4 Kozmic Colour nail
lacquers from Dollarama to create the circles. These polishes don’t have names,
but the colours are neon pink, baby pink with shimmer, burgundy, and metallic
silver.
The first few nails ended up with big spots, not circles,
because it wasn’t as easy as I thought it was going to be. I realized that
since my nails are more rounded I needed to roll the straw over them to create
the circles. I really like how no two nails look alike. It gives it an abstract
art look.
Overall, I am really impressed with how well the Kozmic
Colours worked in this manicure. The colour payoff and staying power of
all the polishes were great. I got to about Day 5 and still had no chipping, or
tip wear. Due to the success of this nail art attempt I am going to be starting
a nail art series on my blog called “Nail
Art 4 Beginners” (NA4B). That way I don’t have to learn new nail art
techniques on my own!
Thank you so much for reading my post and thank you again to
Alyssa for featuring me on your beautyfull blog!
