Hey guys! I tried my hand at making a nail art tutorial and this is what I came up with today! I did it just using my Iphone and an app so it may not be the best out there but I hope you guys like it!
My little cousin came over today and I asked her if she wanted her nails painted and she said I want mine like yours! She’s only 6 years old and her nails are soo teeny tiny! But here’s a pic of her cute tiny little nails!
Hey guys! I was so happy with my gradient last week and got so many compliments that I wanted to do another one!
This time I wanted to create a sunset effect so I used yellow orange and red for the gradient and I used a white as my base color to make the colors really pop.
I used…
Sally hansen extreme wear “white on”
Sinful colors “let’s meet”
Sinful colors “Courtney orange”
Sally haSen hard as nails “I breakable heart”
Seche clear
Seche vite
I started white seche clear as the base coat. I did two coats of the white on to make it opaque and then sponged the yellow, orange and red on until I achieved desired opacity. And then ended with a coat of seche vite top coat.
I love how it came out! The clean up this time was really minimal. I was super careful to not get it on my fingers too much and I start the polish a little before the cuticle so polish doesn’t get sponged on there. Anyways here’s the pics! And for next week I think I may stay with the same theme..who knows!
Hey guys! I’ve been wanting to try my hand again at the ombre/gradient effect. I really do love the look of it but I hate the clean up so its been a while since I’ve tried it again.
This time I wanted to use green and blue to give it the tropical aqua theme. I used a dark blue a lighter blue and a green. You can use any brand or shades that you want to achieve the gradient look. I used a white base to make the colors pop more and to give it a solid base. There was some white around the edges just bc it’s so hard to get the sponge right in the sides and I didn’t want to stain my cuticles too much.
Of course clean up was a pain and by that time I just wanted to be finished lol so my clean up is not premium this time. But without further a due here’s some pictures.
I was not pleased with the sunshine mani with all the bubbles and what not so I put two coats of gold/copper glitter over it and now it’s beautiful! I can’t help it I just love glitter! It’s so sparkly now and right like the golden sun!
Yesterday was my 50 followers mark! I want to thank you guys for following my blog! It’s so awesome that so many people like my manicures even though I’m just a beginner! 50 may not seem like a lot of people but it is to me! So again thanks so much for following my blog! Love you all!
This is a mani I did a few days ago. I bought this really awesome bluish purple by pure ice and had to try it out. It ended up being very sheer and I needed three to four coats for bottle color. And then I did some purple glitter on the accent nail. This is the type of mani I do when I’m in a rush and semi lazy. Solid mani with glitter accent hehe
Again I used seche clear and seche vite for the base and to
Hey polish peeps, I wanted to go for a bright summer color this time so I picked a bright yellow! It’s by sinful colors and its called lets meet and then I used a copper orange glitter over it on the accent nail.
The yellow was very sheer so I used a white base coat and then two coats of the yellow. And for the base and top coat I used seche clear and seche vite. I might have done it a little too fast bc I ended up with some bubbles 😦 so they will be redone in a couple days when the bubbles start to surface. But for now I will enjoy the bright summery sunshine look of these nails!
Hey girls! Independence Day is coming up this week and I wanted to do a special mani for it! I originally wanted to do a water marble but my polishes weren’t spreading very well. So I went for a striping tape mani.
I used
Sinful colors – snow me white
Pure ice – frosted ice celestial
Pure ice – crimson
Seche vite
Seche clear
I started with two coats of white for the base color. Then Applied the striping tape to the top half and painted blue on the bottom and red up top. It came out okay I think. Some red got a teeny bit smudged by the top coat bc I’m not patient and I had a lot of clean up bc I was rushing but it came out decent.
For those of you not from the US. Independence Day is an American holiday that we celebrate on July 4th every year. It’s when we became independent from Great Britain. Anyways I hope you all like this mani!
