Honey yellow nails

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you a manicure in the most fashionable colour of this season: honey yellow. I didn't like this colour very much at first but now I do and I really love how it looks like on my nails. I started with two coats of Rimmel - Bee a honey. Then I stamped the floral design from Lady Queen's BC-09 stamping plate. I used black stamping nail polish from Born Pretty store. I finished everything with Seche Vite top coat for some extra shine and protection. What do you think? What are the colours that you like to wear on your nails this fall?

Sweater weather nails

Tweet

As the swater weather seems to slowly install, I started wishing for darker colours on my nails and sweater prints. So I decided to recreate another houndstooth nail art. I discovered I have another plate with this design, so this time I used BM-322 from Bundle Monster. I showed you last week my red houndstooth manicure that I created with m63 stamping plate for Konad and you can see it here. As you can see, they're not identical - the one from Bundle Monster is wider and the spaces between the checks are bigger. 

As a base colour for this manicure I used two coats of No7 - Totally Teal. I stamped the designs with black and white stamping nail polish from Born Pretty store. I finished everything with Seche Vite top coat for some extra shine and resistance.

What do you think? I'd like to know which houndstooth pattern you like more, this one or the one from last week? I honestly prefer the one from Konad pmore.

Houndstooth nail art

Tweet

Hi,

Do you remember houndstooth? It feels like it's been such a long time since this pattern was a trend! So I went back in my blog archive and looked for the last houndstooth nail art I've created. It was in 2012 and you can see it here. It is so beautiful, I have no idea why everyone seems to have forgotten about it. That made me nostalgic... Please tell me, am I the only one who misses houndstooth? I plan to wear it again in another combination, I was thinking about dark green and black. 

For this manicure I used Makeup Gallery - Pillar Box Red on all nails except from my accent nail, where I applied two coats of Madam Glam - Snow White. I stamped the houndstooth design from Komad's m63 image plate using black stamping polish from Born Pretty. I finished with Seche Vite top coat for a perfectly sealed design and some extra shine.What do you think?

Stamping nail art created with stamping guide

Tweet

Hi,
Today I'll show you another stamping manicure that is easy to create. I started with two coats of Rimmel - Out of the blue on all nails. Then, using Born Pretty's BPL-024 stamping plate and  the Stamping guide 003 I created the half moon stamped design. I finished with Seche Vite top coat on all nails. What do you think?

How to use the stamping guide

1. Choose any stamping plate that you like that has a full nail design. 

2. Paint it with stamping polish and scrap the excess.

3. Place the stamping guide with the desired template over the stamping plate. I chose the circled one.

4. Take your silicone stamper and stamp the design. 

5. Stamp it on the nail.

Ice cream nails

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'm participating in a nail art challenge with some other amazing girls and the theme is ice cream. For this manicure, I started with two coats of nude nail polish and then I stamped the design from Konad's m57 image plate with a darker brown so as to create the ice cream cone effect. Then I painted the ice cream globes using a thin brush. For my thumb, index finger and pinkie, I used Rimmel - Sweet retreat and for the rest of the nails I combined China Glaze - Too Yacht to Handle and some Love Charlotte nail polish. Finally, I added some sprinkles and them clear top coat. What do you think?

Don't forget to check out the other girls' manicures, they're all pretty!

Yellow roses

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you my new vibrant manicure that matches the hot season we're in. I wanted something colourful and I went for a combination of orange, green and yellow. I started with two coats of Rimmel - Tangerine Tent and then I created my own decals using Born Pretty's BP-73 stamping plate.

I started by stamping the design with Born Pretty's Black stamping nail polish and then let the image dry on the stamper. I used El Corazon - Matte Effect #145 Neon and Rimmel - Daisy days to fill in the flowers and leaves. After it dried, I applied some clear top coat and then unstuck the decal from the stamper and stuck it on my nail. I finished by applyimg clear top coat on all nails to seal everything in.

French manicure

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you something simple and elegant: a french manicure! I'm usually more into coloured nails or simply just something more than just the white tips, so I couldn't help but transforming the ring finger's nail into an accent nail. The white nail polish I used is Madam Glam - Snow white, a nail polish totally opaque after a single coat. On the accent nail, I stamped the design from Lady Queen's BC-09 stamping plate and then added some golden studs which I got from Born Pretty store. I finished with a layer of clear top coat on all nails.

Summer animal print nails

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you an animal print nail art which I think is perfect for the hot, summer days. I started with two coats of El Corazon - Matte Effect #125 (white) on all nails and let it dry. On the first two nails, I stamped the zebra and leopard print design from Konad's m78 image plate and filled in the design using yellow and orange. On the last two nails, I created a simple gradient using China Glaze - Sun of A Peach and Rimmel - Daisy Days. Obviously, I applied Kaleidoscope Cuticle Defender around my nails before doing the gradient, so as to prevent the mess and save myself a lot of time which I would had spent cleaning everything up. I finished with clear top coat. 

What do you think?

This is how my nail art sponge looked like for this gradient. You can get a set of 3 sponges from LadyQueen.com, for only $1.29 - find it here on their website. You can also benefit from a
