Something Blue

 

These are my take on the Bridal Weekly Challenge on the nail Polish Lovers Community on Google+

 

I was going to do a nude pink but I saw this Pastel Bue By Kleancolor and I thought this blue shade would make a nice change.

"Something Blue"

 

I used 2x coats of Kleancolors Pastel Blue

Lace Nail Stickers

Flat Back Faux Pearls

1x coat of Poshe

As you can probably see I smudged a few of them when I applied the stickers.

 

I have noticed that a lot of fast drying topcoats do not speed up the drying time of Kleancolor? I have no idea why?! But its really frustrating as I always expect it to be dry and make silly mistakes, like this :(

 

And I couldn't even redo it as I ran out of stickers boooo :(

 

Cloud Nails

 

 

The weekly challenge this week on the Nail Polsih Lovers community on Google+ is Cloud Nails

I added 2x coats of 24 carat by Kleancolor on the midlle finger.

The base colour is Racy Rouge By Sally Hansen.

 

I used Essie Blue Rhapsody and the black and white Barry M nail art pens.

Barry M nail art pens are absolutley fantastic! So easy to use and i prefur them to a brush.

The little finger is a partial stamp from the Cheeky 2012 summer collection.

 

Love this design. It reminds me of something abit cartoony :)

Fruity Grape Mani

 

 

 

Today I've taken part in the Nail Polish Lovers Weekly Challenge to create a design inspired by fruit.

 

I chose to do grapes and a stamped accent nail.

 

Base is Kleancolor Love is in the air

Grapes are Kleancolor Plum and accented in Konad Special Polish in white.

Vine parts are Sinful colors Envy and Manhattan Rock Topia in shade 4

 

Kleancolor's love is in the air is actually a beautiful colour, it has a really nice green shimmer to it i have done two coats here but i feel if i wanted it to be really opaque it would require three. I didnt want the base colour to be to bold though so i opted for two.

 

 

Accent nail is Kleancolor Plum as a base and Konad polish in white. I also used cheeky plate number CH42 from the summer 2012 collection.

 

I know the stamping has smudged abit but this was already my second attempt, i have no idea whats happened to my stamping recently?! It used to be so easy!

I must just be having and off week.

 

The grapes where super easy to do all i used was a dotting tool. I'm starting to use these more than the finer brushes as most of the time i feel they give a better result for me. Brushes tent to streak.

 

What do you think? Would you wear a fruity mani?
