Go crazy for zig zags this season and embrace the Aztec print.  The perfect print for summer holidays ahead, why not clash prints and opt for Aztec-inspired nail art too!  Our favourite nail blogger, Emma from Boom Nails has put together a nail tutorial for one of our favourite trends of the season, Aztec Prints so that you can get the look too.  Over to Emma…

1. Do a base coat
2. Paint your base colour. You can choose any colour for this design - I went for mainly white, with one purple nail and one green nail on each hand
3. Get hold of a black nail art pen. Start with a row of triangles. I did the outlines first, then filled them all in
4. Draw a row of short verticle lines underneath your triangles
5. Do a zig zag line across the tip of your nail. Then copy the same line a bit below it
6. Draw a line of dashes
7. FIll in the last bit of free space on your nail with a zig zag, and put some little mini dots in the gaps
8. Repeat these same patterns on your other nails. Change up the order and add in some of your own patterns too if you like!
9. Finish with a really good top coat, like Seche Vite

Our favourite nail art blogger, Emma from Boom Nails has created some pretty in pink nails exclusively for boohoo that are sure to turn heads in this Spring/ Summer!   Team with pastel hues and floral prints this Spring for a look that will brighten up your transitional wardrobe!

Over to Emma:

• STEP ONE: Do a base coat
• STEP TWO: Two coats of a pale pink nail varnish. I used a No7 one called Pinky Pure
• STEP THREE: Use a white nail art pen to do a dot at the base of your nail. Do another dot joining on to that, and so on until you have a vertical line of white dots going down the length of your nail.
• STEP FOUR: Repeat! Carry on until you have lots of lines going across your nail, all made up of dots.
• STEP FIVE: I think they look quite nice like this, but to make them (slightly!) resemble sequins, I wanted to put a glitter nail polish over the top. If you prefer them without glitter then at this stage just put a topcoat on! If not, do a layer of glitter over the top.
• Hope you liked the tutorial! Emma x
• STEP FIVE: Do this on all of your nails

And voila you have perfect pink nails!

• STEP FIVE: Now for the monochrome stripes! Use a black nail art pen to draw verticle stripes coming out of the triangles at the base of your nail. Be careful to not get black inside your yellow triangles!
• STEP SIX: Fill in every other stripe with black
• STEP SEVEN: Do this on all of your nails
• STEP EIGHT: To finish, put a good quality topcoat over all your nails. Seche Vite is the one I use.

Boohoo tried and tested 6 cream blushers to track down the cream of the crop (excuse the pun). Every girl likes to have a nice glow so boohoo took note from the Spring/ Summer catwalk this year to find the perfect peachy cream blush.  From Louis Vuitton’s pastel SS12 show to Jason Wu’s show full of bright hued peplums, peachy glows were seen on models all over the catwalk this season. So read on to find out which one is the best for your pennies. 

1. Winner: Une Natural Beauty Breezy Cheeks takes first place at the middle of the range price at £8.99.  Application is easy with fingers or a blush brush and the colour is just the right depth.  It doesn’t streak, lasts the course of the day and what is more, it is made of 100% natural ingredients!
2. Second place goes to No. 17 Blush and Glow at a bargain price of £3.99.  This is more of a powdery consistency and goes on easily with a brush.  It is made up of two colours, one deeper than the other so you can mix and match dependent on whether you are tanned or not.
3. Urban Decay take third place.This was the most expensive of all the blushers at £16.20 but it does come with a a little mirror to help with those times when you need to do your makeup on the go.  However it was a little oily and you need a lot of product for a real blush but once applied it gave a lovely peachy glow.
4. Maybelline at £6.49 comes in at fourth place.  This was a little disappointing as it initially has a very luxurious feel and a lovely smell.  However as it is light and greasy, it easily removes foundation and make up underneath.
5. Natural Collection, the cheapest blusher of them all at £1.99 comes out as a very light paste in a nice natural colour.  However application is difficult as it needs a lot rubbing in meaning the end result is very streaky.
6. Bloom Sheer Colour Cream is the loser of the cream blushers.  At £11, Bloom disappointed.  Despite the lovely fragrance, it is very oily on application and has a very unnatural hue!
