Valentine's Day heart candies nail art

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you my Valentine's Day 2014 manicure. This year, I decided to turn my
nails into delicious candies.

The nail polished I used for this manicure were Flormar SuperShine #29 (index finger), Rimmel Lycra Pro -Ultra Violet (middle finger), Glitter Gal -Bluemerang (ring finger), China Glaze -Sun of a peach (pinkie) and China Glaze -Lemon Fizz (thumb). I stamped the texts from Bundle Monster's BM425 stamping plate, using Dior #943. I finished with matte top coat. What do you think?

Simple Easter manicure

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you a very easy to do Easter Manicure. I started with two coats of Dior #671 and then I took a brush and drew the bunny ears on my accent nail. I used white, pink and gray polish in this order. Don't worry - if you do something wrong you can easily fix it by applying some more white. On the rest of my nails, I applied Color Club -Covered in diamonds on the tips. I finished with clear top coat. What do you think?

Striped nail art using fan brush

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you a lively striped manicure as well as my new 15 pc nail art brush kit. 

I got this set from an online nail art store, Born Pretty and they cost $5,96. They're quality brushes of different dimensions and shapes in order that you get sophisticated detailed manicures. 

The set contains drawing, painting and liner brushes, from thinner to thicker and from smaller to bigger ones. The thin ones are really helpful when creating small details. They are thin enough and you don't have to cut them to create the perfect breadth. 

With the brushes bellow you may create one stroke nail designs. 

The set also includes a dotting tool for really small dots with perfect accuracy. 

Last but not least are the fan brushes. If you wonder how I created the manicure in the first picture of the post, they are the answer. Using these brushes you may create really thin lines on your nails. My inspiration for this manicure was this Youtube tutorial. Please watch it to see the technique used.

For this manicure, I started with two coats of China Glaze -Lemon Fizz. The polishes used for the lines were Dior -545 and 671 and Picture Polish -Citrus. I finished with a clear top coat. What do you think?

And here's another manicure I did using the same technique, but different colours. Which one do you like more?
