Pink Laces~

This week's nails are full of pink!
The rainy season is back and I thought a little boost of color would be nice :)
You can always play with other color variations that suit your mood better ;D

Colors I used:
Blanc, Essie
Red Set, Guylond

Guylond has sets of polishes with different color codes and they come out really rich and vibrant! Each bottle is 4 ml so they're quite small but because they come in a set, you can do many things with them :)

Art Nouveau Nails

This week's nail style is Art nouveau!
It is very easy yet very unique and elegant :)
The designs are mostly composed of  thin and thick lines and some filling-in-the-shape.
I tried making a tutorial so that you can try it yourself:)
Hope you like it and that it helps!

Colors I used:
Royal Blush, Sally Hansen
Red Zin, Sally Hansen

Red and gold baroque nails

I am a big fan of Paper Blanks for their intense artistic designs and they give me ideas for my nails as well as creative diary entries :)
This time, it's baroque style!
Lovely rich red with gold patterns~
They stand out and makes you feel elegant :)

Colors I used:
Red Zin, Sally Hansen
#10 Sparkle Sand, Skin Food
Vodka Topcoat, Skin Food
Black Onyx, OPI

Autumn crown nails

It is autumn!
As you can see, I got the inspiration from this lovely perfume from Occitane, called Eau d'Iparie:)
Perfume bottles, gift boxes or wrapping paper patterns are full of motives and colors so when I'm out of ideas, I just rummage through my drawers:)

Colors I used:
Royal Blush, Sally Hansen
Blanc, Essie
Suzi Loves Cowboys, OPI
Yoga-ta Get This Blue!, OPI
Holographic Shine 808, L'Oreal
(unfortunately, this series is no longer available but any shiny metallic brown would work!)

white flower lace~

Laces always work if you want to add a feminine touch to your nails:)

Colors I used:
Blanc, Essie
Yoga-ta get this blue!, OPI
Vodka Topcoat, Skin Food

Red flower nails

This time, lovely red flowers are blooming :)
I actually wanted to try the one stroke technique, but I didn't have any acrylic paint with me :'(
As you can see, normal nail polish is too thick and dense to mix colors with, so even though I did use two polishes on my brush, it doesn't really show...
Looking forward to another practice of one stroke though!

Colors I used:
Black onyx, OPI
Got the Blues for Red, OPI
DS pewter, OPI
Blanc, Essie

Polaka dot & bunny nail

Cute bunnies on my nail!
I added polka dots to give a bit of variation to the design :)
This is a great design for spring but it goes well with autumn colors too!

I used green and baby pink polish from The Face Shop, white from Essie and black onyx from OPI.

Nude colour with black decoration

A simple yet elegant nail design for autumn.
I used the Royal Blush (#230) of Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure and Black Onyx (NL T02) of OPI :)

Mint&Blue lace nail

French style with mint background and dark blue lace.
I used a dotting tool with a thin brush to decorate.
These type of laces are easy to draw and still look very cute and elegant!
Always love laces!!!!!

Fruity multicolored nails

Bright colors!
They are the best to boost up your energy and brighten up the day :)
I actually got inspired from a pot of orange kalanchoe flowers.
All the designs are slightly different on each finger as I was being random and just going with the flow;)

First post! First Marble nail~

So!
To start my new blog, I thought I'd share my previous nail designs:)
Some of them are by me, and some of them are by other people (in which case I mentioned their names and/or  their websites).

First design is a simple two color marble nail in pink, black and white.
I used black and white polish for the thumb and the rest in pink and white.
 

 

I haven't tried marble nail for a while, but I might do another one soon with some rich autumn colors:) Hope they end up better than this one though!
