Pastel Lines Nail Art

I haven't had a chance to do any nail art in a little while so here is one I did just after the Life in Lacquer July Challenge.My laptop broke and I have only just got a replacement and now comes the painstaking task of installing all my files again etc....


As you can see my nails are still square shaped in this nail art, what nail shape do you prefer?

This type of lined nail art is very simple to do and all you need is a small brush and some acrylic paint or some nail polish. I chose to do a triangular shape and then I just got a bit carried away!

I used KBShimmer Iris My Case and Moyra Limoncello. I painted the pattern using some Oumaxi acrylic paint. This paint is quite thin but it is easy to use.

I am not totally happy with this, the pattern looks streaky and off centre. But I quite like the colour combination. I love KBShimmer, I have never met a shade that I don't like.

Hopefully I will be back into posting regularly soon and Ill get a hang of this new laptop and sucky Windows 8!

Festive False Nails

Okay I have again been crap at blogging. 

BUT.... I have been working on something behind the scenes. 

My friend has been bugging me to make false nails for a while now and i have finally done it! 

By the way this is the same friend that convinced me to start this blog. I should really listen to her more! 

I have started them off on eBay with a start of just 99p! I had no idea how to price them so Ill just see how they go. 

Here they are!! 

 These have a slight defect ( bloody topcoat) 

I used OPI Affair in Red Square and Color Club's Sugar Plum Fairy ( i think) 

 Diamante fade nails. 

Diamantes over OPI's Every Month Is Oktoberfest

Blue snow flake nails with dots of Holographic glitter using Zoya's Robyn

Feature nails are done using Zoya PixieDust in Liberty. 

So what do you think? 

Would you wear these? 

If you are interested in buying them you can find them HERE but UK only please! 

Anniversary Rose Nails

 

 Its our third wedding anniversary today so i thought i would do a little nail art to celebrate whilst my husbands at work.

This is OPI Gouda Gouda Two Shoes. 2 Coats here with a Poshe topcoat.

It is a truly beautiful copper rose shade with a shimmer. Unfortunately you cannot really see the shimmer here and it is subtle. If you squint you can see it LOL

I used Oumaxi White acyclic paint to do the roses. 

These are my first roses ever and I think I did okay!

 I chose white as my wedding flowers were white roses.

Kleancolor Blue Spirals and Waves

I actually did this quite a while ago but i never actually got round to putting it up, but here it is!

I used Barry M white base, 3 Different Kleancolor Blues and Kleancolor Holo Teal

I'm really unsure of this design but i wanted to give my new brushes ago.

 *forgive my dirty hands,i was in a nail art frenzy!*
