Roses & Stripes

 Happy New Year Guys! Today's post is on Roses and Stripes. This design is really common but nonetheless I really like it although the roses and stripes are common you can play around with different colors to create the look. In this design I used a purple for the background and I feel that by using purple it creates a soft look, compared to using a green colour for the background. Green may look harsh compared to purple but it has that vintage feel. I'm sure that this will not be my only post on roses and stripes as I will be doing more of them

Polishes used are: OPI's Rumples Wiggin, OPI's Lucky Lucky Lavender, Essie's Mojito Madness, White Striper.

 I started painting all my nails with OPI's Rumples Wiggin and let it dry. I took a dotting tool and started dotting all of my fingers except the ring finger. I used OPI's Lucky Lucky Lavender to dot. While letting that dry I took a white striper and draw stripes down my ring finger. After that using the white striper I painted the outlines of the rose. Lastly I took Essie's Mojito Madness and took a small brush and painted the leaves. 

Christmas Nails

Hey guys really sorry for going MIA, last week I was overseas taking a break and now I am back!! Really glad to be back and blogging again.. any guesses on today's nail design? Well, since Christmas is coming up really quickly I have a really really simple Christmas inspired nails. I reached for a red shimmery nail polish and just painted my nails that color. I was thinking of ways to switch it up and to make it more "Christmassy" and this is how it turned out..

    Colors used are: OPI I'm Not Really A Waitress and OPI Glitzerland.

 I just did an ombre although this nail design is not as difficult compared to the others, I couldn't rack my brains  for anything original and I really wanted to get at least a post up by today. This nail design is not original but I think its really easy to do and easy to recreate this but overall I hope you guys enjoy this!!

CupCake NAILS!!!

Hi Guys I'm back with a nail art today.. Yay!! haha I was looking for ideas to do my nails, so I decided to do something related to food. I'm think this might satisfy those who loves sweet things..like? CUPCAKES!!! I am one who simply love love love cupcakes especially with cream cheese filling. OH the thought of it is already starting to make me drool..ooh the cream cheese simply ooze into your mouth. Oh my I should really stop blabbering and show you guys the pictures as I know that most of you are here for the pictures..

 Polishes used are OPI Chocolate Moose, OPI Mod About You, OPI Big Apple Red, OPI Formidably Orange, China Glaze Re-Fresh Mint, Essie Bikini So Teeny.
     Firstly I painted all my nails except my ring finger with OPI Chocolate Moose, as for my ring finger I painted OPI Chocolate Moose differently I painted like a french tip but a thick french tip and then take a white striper and paint stripes down on the french tip. For the stripes on the rest of the nails, I just use a thin nail art brush dip it into OPI Mod About You and paint it vertically down. On to the cupcake, take a dotting tool dip it into OPI Mod About You and do the top of the cupcake I just dot it to form the shape of how I think a cupcake with pink frosting look like. Once your done with the cupcake take the dotting tool again and dip it into OPI Big Apple Red and dot it at the top to form a cherry. To finish the look just dot in the sprinkles I used Essie Bikini So Teeny, China Glaze Re-Fresh Mint and OPI Formidably Orange.

Mermaid Inspired Nails

Hi again! yes today I have another nail art to share as you know I absolutely adore nail art so this time I decided to do a mermaid inspired nails. I was pondering as to what I should do like the shells, the mermaid itself or the tail. I went with the tail as although I do enjoy doing nail art I wanted something that I'm able to do on both my nails. I felt that doing the mermaid itself might be challenging for my left hand as I'm right handed and what if my left hand started shaking? I might just screw the whole thing... so of course I felt that by doing my nails on parts of the mermaid tail is something not as challenging as compared to the whole mermaid but at the same time it is challenging in a way for me haha! enough rambling lets get on with the photos!

 The picture above is with filter while the picture below is taken in natural lighting. The polishes I used are OPI-Just Spotted The Lizard, OPI-Unforgretably blue, OPI-Rainbow Connection and a black striper.
Firstly I painted all my nails with two coats of OPI-Just spotted the lizard then I let it dry completely. After my nails are dried I use a cosmetic sponge and paint OPI-Unforgretably blue on the sponge and I did a gradient on my index,middle and pinky finger. I did this step to both my hands. Then I took a black striper and just drew crosses but it doesn't  have to be perfect. I personally think that a mermaid's tail will look better without the crosses being too perfect. But thats just how I like mine to be, so if you want yours to look more systematic feel free to do so:) Lastly for the ring finger and the thumb I painted a coat of Rainbow connection as I feel that mermaids are magical creatures so I wanted to add the magical touch, Haha.
Thank you  for taking time to read my post, and I hope you enjoyed this nail art:)
