Ribbon Candy nails!

Happy morning lacquer lovers!! Coming at you today with some stripped candy nail art, not really supposed to be Christmasy but does have a candy can feel.  I guess I would call it ribbon candy,  yea ribbon candy llet's go with that - because I was  just going to a pretty design but it does truly remind me of ribbon candy :)

First I did a base of Color Club Eternal Beauty which is an awesome purple holo, when thiswas dry I did a coat each oOzotic sugar 902 (a purple glitter coat) anda coat of Orly Digital Glitter  (a grayish mixed glitter).  When this was all dry I used a small flat brush to free hand angled lines of Naughty nautical using enough thin coats to make the polish opaque.  Lastly I outlined the angled lines with Color Club Harp on it using a very fine tipped liner brush. All that's left when dry is to apply a good quick dry topcoat and bam!  You've got your very own ribbon candy nails.

So many Color combinations could look awesome in this Mani,  so go ahead be creative and give it a try yourself!  

Polished used are :

Butter London Henley regatta
Orly Digital Glitter
Color Club Harp on it
Essie Naughty nautical
Ozotic sugar 902
Color Club Eternal Beauty.

Hope you liked today's post guys!  Hope to see you again next time !!  Don't forget to subscribe :)

Totally 80's nails

Hello everyone ,  how are you today? It has been a constant shade of gray in the sky lately  and it sucks in tthe morale department, so my nails have to be twice as bright to combat the grey dullness outside :)

Today  I have gone a little eighties, perhaps a little Gem and the holograms  to be specific.   What I've done I'd painted all my nails a  base coat of Zoya Lux and then dry brushed them with a tiny bit of OPI pussy galore to give them more depth and s bit of sheen without being straight up glitter. So really making them super glittery but in a toned down way.

Next I useda  very fine tipped brush to paint several triangles on my thumbs and ring fingers  inrRuby Wing  Groupie which is a vibrant uv  reactive pink.  I then used the same type of brush to outline the triangles In a   purple by Color Club called Pucci-licious. The only thing left after that was to let them dry and top coat them.

Hope you like the result. I am quite fond of  the mixture of these polishes personally. Thanks for dropping in today everyone! See you again tomorrow I hope!! Don't forget to please like and subscribe !

Fan brush nail art :)

Good morning fellow lacquer loving peeps. Things in life have got me down today but nail art usually helps me get back up. Today I have used a fan brush and three polishes to create a nail art that isn't quite sugar spun and isn't quite marbling, but more if a halfway point between the two achieved with layering and a dry brushing technique.

Let's start off with the polishes I used :) For my blue I picked Ruby Wing Moonstone, for my pink piCture pOlish Shocked, and for my purple piCture pOlish Violette Femme.

I started off by painting a base coat of  Moonstone and allowing it to dry. I then took my fanbbrush and lightly dipped the ends in a small puddle of shocked. I then wiped any excess polish off the brush and dragged the fan brush back and forth over each nail.

Next I repeated this process with Violette Femme. You need to make sure your brush isn't too saturated so that the color already on the nail doesn't get completely painted over.

I then did another pass over each nail with shocked, but with even less polish on  the brush,just enough to leleave pink traces.  I then finished up with a final pass over each nail with a little Moonstone blue to blend it all out and make the colors nice  and even. Then of course I applied a quick dry top coat and voila.

This was a new type of nail  art for me using a technique my mother had taught me from tole painting. I think it translates well to nail art :)

Thanks for stopping in today guys :) I hope you all come back again tomorrow :)  Don't forget to subscribe to stay up to date with new posts!

I won't write a lot today as it is more a day for remembrance and I just wanted to share my nails with you today as I always like to do.

Colors used in this manicure are Zoya Chyna and Sally Hansen White On.

Have a great day guys, and thanks for joining me today. I hope to see you back again tomorrow :)

Surreal Snake Skin nails

Good morning  fellow lacquer lovers!  I hope you all are fantastic  on this brand new day :) I'm in such a stamping mood lately, maybe it's because I'm over the moon excited to get some Moyou London stamping plates for Christmas this year and I'm just making sure I'm the best Stamper I can be for when I get them :p.

I have a lot of stamping plates already not counting the ones I'm getting so I decided to use one that I've never  used before featuring a Snake scale print. I didn't want to be super realistic and use Snake colors because that's not my jam, I'm a  bright vibrant candy Color kind of girl. Therefore naturally I chose Purple Poodle by Orly and Harp on It by Color Club for my Snake skin manicure,  because people as a whole might like snakes more if they were purply pink and holographic :p

Hope you enjoy this one guys. I was overall pretty pleased but admittedly it was a little difficult to photograph the holo over the purple but it turned out pretty well with the right lighting. Thanks again for stopping in and checking out my post today :)  Hope to see you again tomorrow for more nail art fun!

Orly Angel Rain and Zoya Vega

Hello guys. I swear the weather here thinks it's  spring not fall because two out of three days lately have been Gloomy and rainy. I sincerely hope that the weather is nice where you are :).

Anyway on to today's nails.. It's a pretty simple nail day today. I really just wanted to showcase these lovely colors and was rather inspired by Frozen hence the color choices :p

The polishes I have used here are Zoya Vega and Orly Angel Rain. Vega is a magical Pixie and Angel Rain  is part of the surreal collection by Orly.

I  hope you have enjoyed my post today guys!  Even though today's nails are simple I find simple nails sometimes the most elegant when working with certain colors. I have today off so there will be some more detailed nail art up tomorrow thanks to my free time today :)

Thanks for stopping by guys I love it when you visit and I get to share my nail art with you :) See you again tomorrow and don't forget to subscribe so you never miss a post :)

A fist full of rainbows!

Heyo lovelies thanks for stopping by today :) You may have noticed in my last few posts that I trimmed my nails down a bit (or you may not  have noticed I'm not the centre of the universe :p) I got a cracked in my thumb nail a few weeks back and whileI was ssucceeding in repairing it while it grew out I just decided it would be a good time to trim and re grow. If you would like a tutorial on my repair process just let me know :)

Anyway moving on to the nail art of the day.  I felt very colourful today so I grabbed a rainbow of colors and went at it. I hope you enjoy the results I do but once I was finished I realized it was a little more motley /jester-ish ythan I had planned on but I didn't mind because it still looked nifty to me. Here is a list of colors used!

Sally Hansen White On as a basr
Essie Licorice for the stamp outline
piCture pOlish Jealousy
OPI Over and over a Gwen
Cover girl Goldilocks
Essie Fifth Avenue
