Yellowy Sunshine Goodness!

Hi all! This nail art occurred purely by accident but I must admit I do like it. Pluses of having long nails is that you can get to do french tips without must difficulty (ie the polish won't get onto your cuticles heh).

So this started off innocently enough with OPI's Fiercely Fiona as base and China Glaze's Sunshine as a slight glitter gradient tip. You can click here for a swatch on Fiercely Fiona. You can also click here to see how I used Fiercely Fiona with other colors to create an Easter themed nail art.

I have never used Sunshine from China Glaze as a swatch before. At least, I've never had it on long enough to take pictures with. Truth is, it was just too sheer to be used on it's own. So I'm only going to use it for layering. You can click here to see a swatch I did with a wonderful glittery orange that I bought together with Sunshine though :) It's awesome because it's got tiger stripes in it.

 I love the Sunshine glitter on this one because they have a slight holo effect which is really subtle. You can see the flash of pink on my index finger above.

 And here you can see more glitter it really depends on how you see it.

 Can you see the green flashes on my middle finger? It does have more effect in real life. Trying to catch these elusive glitters is an exhausting job.

 Eventually though I gave up on being subtle and covered the whole nail with Sunshine. Hurray for glitter!

This is what it looks like while layered over Fiercely Fiona. 

I loved it so much that after a few days I decided to french tip it when the tips wore off. I chose a not-so-loud dusky gold. I forgot which brand...I think it was BK but I have yet to do a swatch on it.

So that's all for today! As usual, if you haven't already do like my facebook page/shop here. Feel free to buy anything from me :P Till next time, Byee~

Hole Hearted Again!

Hi all! This is short because it's a simple nail art. As mentioned in the blog post here I was not completely happy with Hole Hearted from All That Glitters. So I couldn't resist giving it another try this time with a base that will show off both the black and white glitter pieces.

Gotta admit...Still not a huge fan. Too much clear base instead of the glitter and I had to put two very thick coats to get that many glitter pieces. Maybe it's just me. I'm dreading the day Hole Hearted is half-used and I find all of the glitter pieces stuck at the bottom.

Well, that's all for today! As usual, if you haven't already do like my Facebook page / shop here so you can get the latest updates about this blog. Till next time, Byee~!

Triple Color Free Hand!

Hi guys! For this nail art I did everything free hand and even tried to use rhinestones to jazz it up a little. Here's a pictorial :)

Right, as a base color I had Bogie from China Glaze, which was a mistake, it made everything that much darker and ancient looking. You can click here for a swatch.

Then going diagonally I used a no brand polish that was a present from my cousin. (It's Rainbow brand I don't even know if Sasa still sells them it's ancient)

To top it all off I went diagonally again with Nubar's Purple Beach. I have no idea why I sandwiched that pink between two deep purples...it just makes the whole nail art so dark. You can click here for a swatch of Purple Beach.

Then after that just border the lines of the colors with rhinestones. This actually allows you more freedom in freehanding. The rhinestones would cover up any wonky lines you might have accidentally made. But putting so many is such hard work...so I only did it on my thumb and ring finger. You can click here to see all the different nail art designs I've done using rhinestones :)

As you can see my thumb's color lines are parallel to each other as opposed to dividing my nails into 3 triangles like my other fingers. You can really do it any way you want it as long as your brush is thin enough :)

That's all for today, sorry my hiatus took longer than expected :/ But! As usual, if you haven't already do like my Facebook page (which is also a shop) so that you have the latest on what nail art I'm doing and blog posts that come up. Do follow my blog if you like what you see here :) Till next time then, Byee~
