Princess Luna Nail Art

Afternoon lacquer lovers! Something you may not know about me is that I am a big fan of My Little Pony. Not just the new series, I have been a life long fan and had the toys growing up etc and then also fell in love with the cuteness and humor of the new series as well. So to break up the steady flow of Christmas themed nail art I am going to be throwing in Pony themed nail art as well!

I decided to kick off the pony nail art with Princess Luna inspired nail art. I am not going in any particular order from favorite to least favorite, I am simply going with what colors strike me each day and what Pony that would correlate to, in this case blue and silver spoke to me and therefore Princess Luna nail art was created :) .

So To start I painted all of the nails except my index fingers with two thin coats of OPI Keeping Suzi at Bay. I then painted my index fingers with Zoya Cosmo. When that was dry I went in with Butter London Stardust and gave some glitter to my middle and pinkie fingers. I then used kiss nail art paint in silver to paint Princess Lunas cutie mark on my thumbs, and an alicorn wing on my ring fingers.

To finish up the nail art I simply applied a quick dry top coat and voila, lovely Princess Luna nails, fit to bring up the moon with  :)

Hope you guys like this nail art, if you are also pony fans let me know in the comments who your favorite pony is, and which Pony nail art you can't wait to see!

Thanks for stopping by today guys! Hope you drop by again tomorrow :)

Gingerbread Men Nail Art

Happy Sunday Lacquer Lovers! Following through on the Christmas themed nail art again :P I just love it when months have a major holiday that you can base your nail art themes around for a considerable period of time, it provides so much inspiration, and improves your spirit for that holiday.

For my nail art today, I bring you cute little Gingerbread Men on a polka dot background.

First off as you always should when starting a new nail art, or just painting your nails I used a base coat on my nails to protect the natural nail from staining.
Next I painted the nails on each hand alternately with OPI Fashion a Bow (red orange) and Essie Mojito Madness (green) and then used a dotting tool to create polka dots of the opposite color on each nail which I then allowed to dry completely.

Next I took a narrow paint brush and painted on the shapes of the Gingerbread Men in Essie Sand Tropez with a layer of Essie Mochacino to give them a "baked" kind of look.  I then used kiss nail art black paint to outline all the Ginger Bread Men.

For the accents on the Gingerbread men I used Sally Hansen White On for their facial details and then used the colors I had for the background to give them all a button and a bow, and then finally top coated with a quick dry top coat to seal in the nail art and prevent smooshin :P .

Well that's all for today guys! Hope you enjoyed my little Gingies, and I hope that you come back again tomorrow to see what else I have in store!

Christmas Sweater Nail Art v 2.0

Morning lacquer lovers, Short post today because I woke up super late and I have to get ready for work today!
So my nail art today is my version 2.0 of cute Christmas sweater nail art. For my base colors I used Zoya Zusa and Butter London Henley Regatta, and for the stamping Revlon White On.

After using these colors all I had to do was simply top coat to finish off this nail art.

Sorry the post was so short today guys running low on time :) see you again tomorrow thanks for stopping by!

Santa Suit Nail Art

Hey again Lacquer Lovers! Hope you are having a splendid day and that your December is going swimmingly so far. As it has officially been December for five whole days I am completely comfortable with going full steam ahead with Christmas and Holiday themed nails so this should be fun!

I was inspired for this nail art by one of my favorite red polishes Mamba by Color Club. It's just the perfect red for Santa in my opinion so I automatically associated it with little Santa suits :)

The two base colors I used for this nail art are of course Mamba by Color Club, and Chyna by Zoya which is a wonderful red pixie dust glitter it's seriously fabulous you should try it. I made sure I base coated well as the polishes are highly pigmented and I don't want more staining on my nail beds. I then applied Mamba to my index, middle, and pinkie fingers, and applied Chyna to my ring finger and thumb and allowed to dry completely. I used two coats of each polish on each nail to even things out and make the color as bold as possible.

I then used Sally Hansen White On and MoYou London Stamping plate 03 from the Festive collection to stamp the white Candy stripes onto the thumb and ring finger. I also Used White on to paint the Santa Suit fur down the middle of the other nails, and allowed these white areas to dry.

All that was left was to use Kiss nail art paint to outline and draw in the suit details and add some silver to the candy stripes for a little more visual interest and then of course top coat!

Hope you enjoyed my Santa Suit nail art today guys! I appreciate you stopping by and hope you stop by again tomorrow for more nail art!!

Christmas Tree Nail Art

Happy third day of December, and my Birthday Eve Lacquer Lovers! I hope you are all well on this fine day (its kind of raining here but whatevs).

Today I have some itty bitty Christmas Tree nail art for you. This nail art is completely inspired by the polishes in the background and how they look like a snowy winters day when layered on top of one another.

For my base colors to create that snowy winters day atmosphere for this nail art I painted two coats of China Glaze Capacity to see beyond (blue) and allowed it to fully dry. I then layered one thin coat of China Glaze The Outer Edge (white glitter flecks in a clear base) which I also allowed to dry completely and then added a thin coat of a quick dry nail polish.

To create the tree shapes I used striping tape to create triangle patterns on the nails which I painted in with OPI Christmas Gone Plaid. All that was left was to outline the trees, add accents (kiss nail art silver paint and OPI Make him mine) and affix the star embellishments.

Hope you enjoyed this nail art post today guys! Let me know what you think in the comments and have a wonderful December!

See you next time!

Christmas Light nail art

Heyo Lacquer Lovers. How are you all today? I'm pretty well today I have another day off so we shall see what today brings :)

Today I have some Holiday Spirited nail art for you in the form of strands of Christmas lights! The lights on peoples houses are always one of my favorite parts of Christmas. I love walking around and seeing them with my boyfriend it just somehow gives a sense of peace and wonderment to the whole season, especially if there is snow :)

I painted my nails a base of Essie Licorice a cream black so that the other background colors would stand out more than they would on their own. I then layered on one coat each of piCture pOlish Aurora and Sally Hansen Seanic. I wanted the nails to be dark like nighttime as a backing for this nail art, but not so dark as to be just plain black. I feel that the colors I chose give a luminous quality to the background that lights would do in real life :)

Next all I did was take my kiss nail art paint and paint a wavy line through the middle of each nail trying to make it at least sort of line up from nail to nail, it doesn't have to be perfect just do your best! Next come the embellishments. I used teardrop or leaf shape embellishments which came in a wheel from a seller on amazon.ca. I simply affixed four to five embellishments per nail alternating top and bottom along the wavy lines I had painted in the middle of the nails. To affix embellishments simply use a thin coat of non quick dry polish and press the embellishments down gently into the unset top coat.

To finish up the nail art use your favorite top coat to seal it all together when it is completely dry which may take a few more moments than longer when affixing embellishments to make sure they are secure. Personally I use Sally Hansen or Revlon top coats as they do not drag as much in my experience, nor have they shrunk in my experience.

Well that's it for today guys! Hope you enjoyed my Christmas light nail art and I hope you come back again tomorrow to see what else is in store:)
