Update and A Nail Design!

Hey Guys I know I have been MIA for a few months as my finals were just over and I was revising for my finals and I was so busy so I could not blog at all but I'm back and I'm glad to be back blogging and doing my nails again. I really hope you guys would understand why I was gone for so long. Anyways, back on to my nails I have a really cute mani to share with you guys which I haven't thought of a name of what is it called..

Polishes Used Are: Essie's Bikini So Teeny, Essie's Mojito Madness, Essie's Off The Shoulder

Firstly I just painted my nails with Essie's Bikini So Teeny with two coats and letting it dry completely. After that I use Essie's Mojito Madness and draw three lines down using the brush one lower than the other diagonally. After I have done so I will use Essie's Off The Shoulder and do the same exact thing as to what I have done with Essie's Mojito Madness.

ABC Nail Art Challenge~Letter L

I know this was really late but I was on vacation last week but I didn't forget the letter L I managed to do it but I did not have time to post it up but hopefully you guys will understand as all the packing and stuff.. So for L I chose Leopard!

Polishes Used Are: Essie's Borrowed & Blue, Essie No Place Like Chrome and Black Nail Polish

Firstly I painted all of my nails Essie's Borrowed & Blue and let it dry. Next I used Essie's No Place Like Chrome and just place randomn spots using the brush itself. Afterwards I took a dotting tool dip it into black polish and just went around the spots but not covering the whole spot completely. I also place different black spots on the nail and your done!

ABC Nail Art Challenge~Letter K

It's K Week! I must say I thought about it hard on what to do and so I have decided to do it on Key Nails but I would like to call this Key & Lock Nails. I am really happy with the look and to my surprise it turned out even better than what I had expected so YAY! I did some random designs on my other nails other than the lock and key. Well, what are we waiting for? Time for some pictures!

Polishes Used Are: OPI's Glitzerland, Essie's Mint Candy Apple

First I started with painting two coats of  Essie's Mint Candy Apple and let it dry. Afterwards I started creating the key by using a dotting tool dipped into OPI's Glitzerland and dot it on the middle finger and use a brush to draw a line down and two strokes perpendicular to the vertical line, after the key iss completely dry dip a smaller dotting tool into Essie's Mint Candy Apple and dot it in the centre. As for the lock I use again a dotting tool dipped into black polish and dot it on my ring finger and use a brush dipped into black polish and drew two diagonal lines down one line to the left while the other line to the right the join both the lines and fill the space left behind with black polish. For my pinky I use a brush and using OPI's Glitzerland and paint it diagonally down from left to right and vice versa. My index finger I took a gold glitter striper draw it vertically down and used a black striper to draw a line vertically down. 

Phew that was pretty long.. Shall grab a drink right after this but this is my mani for Letter k.

See Ya!

ABC Nail Art Challenge~Letter J

Hello again guys! Today I have my J mani and I chose OPI's Just Spotted The Lizard. Since I do love that color, OPI's Just Spotted The Lizard is like "color changing" not sure if I used the correct or proper term but its like in one lighting its gold and in another its like green. After painting my nails that color I simply could not stop staring and moving my fingers around as I watch the color "change". I must say this color was a challenge to take as the color in the picture weren't exactly accurate but I did choose several pictures which are the best.. I did play around with angles too.. So onto the pictures!

So I guess that's it folks 

See Ya!

 

ABC Nail Art Challenge~Letter H

Hello again! Today I have a post and it starts with the letter H! I chose to do Heart Nails but my take is just really simple but I was inspired by the wildfox sweater the one which was cream but had a pink/red heart in it. I love that sweater.. since I couldn't decide whether to choose pink or red I went with coral I also chose a nude color instead of white for the base..

Polishes Used Are: OPI's My Vampire Is Buff and China Glaze's Flirty Tankini

First I painted two coats of OPI's My Vampire Is Buff and let it dry completely.Then, using China Glaze's Flirty Tankini and painted two strokes down all of my nails diagonally downwards and I did this step for all of my nails except the ring finger. As for the ring finger I painted a heart free hand, well as you can see it did not turn out as nice but I'm satisfied :)

Well I guess that's all for today guys:D

ABC Nail Art Challenge~Letter D

Hey Guys its time for letter D for the ABC Nail Art Challenge. I immediately knew that I wanted to do DOTS DOTS DOTS! Well yeah.. so I went ahead with the idea, I know that its not unique and pretty mainstream but well what can I say? Of course I went ahead with it..

Polishes Used Are: OPI's Mod About You and Essie's Off The Shoulder
First I painted Essie's Off The Shoulder then let it dry completely and take a dotting tool dip into OPI's Mod About You and DOT Away!

ABC Nail Art Challenge~ Letter C

Hello again ! Today's Post is a nail art starting with the letter C. I was thinking of what design to do that begins with the letter C. After a while, I narrowed down my choices to either a cat or corset nail art. Eventually I went with corset well cause I have not painted corset nails before so I was pretty excited yet nervous worrying about the look of it after I'm done. I did loved the final look but their not entirely perfect but I'm overall really satisfied with it.

Polishes Used Are: OPI's Alphine Snow and A Black Polish

To start off I painted all my nails black and let it dry. Then I took  OPI's Alphine Snow and placed the brush in the middle of my nail and paint but not covering the entire nail instead leaving the sides so that the black will show. Then just get a dotting tool and dot in using OPI's Alphine Snow on the black sides of the nail, After it is dried, Take a black striper and paint diagonal lines overlapping each other.

TILL next time! 

Essie's Bikini So Teeny

Hello guys! today I have Essie's Bikini So Teeny I decided to paint my nails this color as this is one of my favourite colors for spring and I realise that it was sitting in my drawer for a pretty long time now.. So I decided to paint my nails with it.

The color is just so gorgeous it is a periwinkle color with a subtle shimmer in it. The shimmer is not noticeable unless you look at it really closely. I'm super excited to paint my nails with pastels or any polish that basically screams spring to me. Till next time!

Neutral Colorblocking

Hey Guys so sorry I was MIA all the while, today I am back with neutral colourblock nails. I recently got my hands on the color "My Vampire Is Buff" from the Euro Centrale Collection. I only got one color from that collection but I might be going back to pick up some more.. So for My Vampire Is Buff I needed three coats to smooth it out although it was pretty streaky on the first coat, the pay off was absolutely worth it! I also didn't have any color similar to it in my collection. Moving on to the pictures...

 Polishes Used Are: OPI's My Vampire Is Buff, OPI's Tickle My France-y

First I painted my nails with OPI's My Vampire Is Buff three coats and let it completely dry. After that I used tape and begin to paste it across my nail diagonally, vertically etc and paint OPI's Tickle My France-y. Then remove the tape and your done!!

February Nail Art Challenge Day 8

We meet again folks! Today is Day 8 of the challenge and today will be my last post although the challenge officially ends on Day 9. I have examinations next week and I want to focus on it so this is my very last post for this challenge. Its really sad I really had a lot of fun these few weeks while doing the challenge. Thank you to Erica for creating this challenge I really enjoyed myself and I pushed myself more in terms of nail design so  I am really grateful to her..On to today's theme, it is "Polka Dot Nails". I think that polka dots are so adorable and there are so many ways to do different types of polka dots like big, medium or small polka dots. 

Polishes Used Are: OPI's Shocking Pink ,OPI's Alpine Snow, OPI's Formidably Orange, OPI's Seriously Purple. I painted all my nails with OPI's Alpine Snow then I started with OPI's Formidably Orange in the middle and took a larger dotting tool and when I was done I moved on to a different colour and used a smaller dotting tool. Do make sure to check out the other participants nails for Day 9 as I am sure it is going to be amazing!

~Till next time..

February Nail Art Challenge Day 7

Why hi there! Guess what its already Day 7 of the challenge. Today the theme is "Inspired By A Tutorial". I went to Meliney's channel on YouTube to look for Retro Dots Nails Inverse Merging Drip Nails. I have been looking for tutorials to do the design as I saw it while surfing the net and I was in love. I really like how unique it looks. I decided to modify it a little instead of the Inverse dots at the side I decided to place it vertically.

                                             

Polishes Used Are: OPI's Chocolate Moose, OPI's Mod About You
First I painted my nails with OPI's Chocolate Moose after letting it dry I went and take OPI's Mod About You and paint half of my nail vertically downwards. Once it is dry I use a dotting tool and OPI's Mod About You and dot it on the background of Chocolate Moose. Do it for the other side as well and your done! Hope my instructions are clear but if they are not you can go and watch Meliney's Tutorial on it.

See You Real Soon!~

                                     

February Nail Art Challenge Day 6

Its Day 6 of the challenge! So today's theme is Gradient. I for one love gradient but I'm not that good at it compared to others but I wanted to try doing three colors as all along I have only been doing two colors so this time round I jumped at the opportunity and I hope you guys like it. It is not the best so do forgive me and I played around with different angles this time round so some pictures may look different compared to my previous ones. I will have four photos instead of three as I cannot decide between them..

Polishes Used Are: OPI's Alpine Snow, OPI's Riotously Pink, OPI's Ridiculously Yellow, OPI's Formidably Orange.

I painted all my nails with OPI's Alpine Snow and let it completely dry otherwise it will get smudge later on. After it is completely dry I took a makeup sponge and painted the remaining three colors in an order from top to bottom by OPI's Formidably Orange followed by OPI's Ridiculously Yellow then OPI's Riotously Pink and I top it off with a top coat to make it really blend together .

SEE YOU SOON! 

February Nail Art Challenge Day 5

Polishes Used Are: OPI's Mod About You, OPI's Alpine Snow, OPI's Strawberry Margarita
First I painted OPI's Mod About You then let it completely dry and the I went ahead and use the largest dotting tool and dip it into OPI's Strawberry Margarita and draw the hearts the bigger ones on my index, middle and pinky while for my ring finger I drew smaller hearts. Lastly I took the smaller dotting tool and went around the big hearts while for my ring finger I went ahead and did polka dots.

February Nail Art Challenge Day 4

Hello again guys! Day 4's Theme is "Inspired By A Pattern". Well for me I was inspired by the animal print pattern and I wanted to not have like the usual leopard or zebra print so I look through my stamping plates and I found one... Its unusual to me and although I don't know what print it is I decided to keep it "unknown" haha! but if any of you guys know what it is do let me know!..

Polishes Used Are: OPI's What's With The Cattitude? and Essie's No Place Like Chrome

I painted two coats of OPI's What's With The Cattitude? and fully let it dry and then I went ahead and stamp on the animal print using Essie's No Place Like Chrome and your done!

See You Really Soon~

February Nail Art Challenge Day 3

Its already the third day of the challenge whoo! Today is glitter- loaded nails, well to me glitter only means one thing lots and lots of scrubbing. Thank goodness a few weeks ago I discovered the peel off base coat and guess what it came in handy when I did these nails. Although the glitter isn't anything unique I am still really glad to go all out with glitter.I have been wanting to do it for sooo long okay enough blabbering already... time for some pictures!!

Polishes Used Are: OPI's Gone Gonzo!

I just dab on the hexagonal glitters onto my nail as I feel that it it more opaque.

Really love the overall look as its so glittery its just that it looks way toned down in pictures.. 

See You Soon for Day 4!
