Winter nail arts + How to create an outlined design

Hi,

This is going to be an unusually long post, including a lot of pictures. Here, in 

Romania, it has been snowing incredibly beautiful for the past 24 hours. That 

inspired me to create a snowmen nail art. 

I started with two coats of Flormar #431. Then, I applied a layer of a white 

crackling nail polish from Born Pretty in order to create the snow effect.

I used m12 Konad plate for the snowmen. The stamping technique is shown 

in the bellow picture. Firstly, I stamped the design using Special White. Then,

I filled in the design using a white nail polish. Lastly, I restamped the snowmen

design using Special Black, to create an outline effect. This is not as difficult

as it seems, and don't worry if you don't manage to stamp the design exactly

on the line of the previous one. Fill in the comforter with two different colours.

I used orange and green and applied them using a small dotting tool. 

This is the final result. I finished with a clear top coat. What do you think about

my snowmen nail art?

I also wanted to include some pictures of the beautiful scenery I see

from my windows. I really love snow! 

Here's a snowflake design I created for my best friend the day before. You

might have seen it on my Facebook page, as I already posted it. For this, I 

started with a sponged white layer on the tips and then I stamped the snowflakes 

from m59 Konad plate using black, pink and blue. Do you like them?

Flormar Duo Chrome #DC06 and stamping

Hi,

Today I'll show you another shade from the Flormar Duo Chrome Collection.

This one is called DC06 and it's a lovely purple with golden and grayish reflections. 

I applied two coats and no clear top coat. Click on the pictures to enlarge.

I stamped over it the design from m40 plate from KKcenterhk (the equivalent for m22 

Konad palte). I finished with a clear top coat. What do you think?

Flormar Duo Chrome #DC05

Hi,

As many of you might have heard, Flormar has recently launched a collection of 6 Duo Chromes. 

I chose a teal colour, named DC05 and I was very keen on reviewing it. 

Not only did it fulfill my expectations, but it exceeded them. It actually has plenty of nuances 

at different lightnings. I only managed to catch some of them in the pictures. They go from

 golden green to dark green blue and have a beautiful shine. I didn't apply any top coat.

Sponge crackled manicure

Hi,

Today I'll show you a manicure I created using a technique I haven't used until now,

crackled manicure done with a sponge. I started with two coats of Flormar -MG05, 

then I applied the Black Crackling Nail Polish from Born Pretty on a sponge and

tapped over the nail. I cleared the mess on my cuticles using a brush and acetone.

 Finally, I applied a clear top coat. This is the result. What do you think?

Cupcake manicure

Hi,

Today I'll show you a new manicure I created using m14 image plate.

cupcake and finished with Konad -Special Top Coat.

Seahorse manicure

Hi,

Today I'll show you a manicure I created using m27 Konad plate. I wanted this

image plate for so long and I was very happy to receive it today. I started with two

coats of Flormar #431 on all my nails except my ring finger and thumb, where I applied 

two coats of Golden Rose #04. Then I stamped the water bubbles from h20 image plate,

using Konad Special White and the seahorse from m27 Konad plate, using the blue I 

applied on the other nails. I finished with Konad Special Top Coat.

Bows

Hi,

Today I''ll show you the manicure I wore on the Easter day.

I started with a coat of Flormar #394  and then I applied Jesse's girl -JulieG 

on the tips of my nails and then I stamped the bow design from m59 Konad 

plate with Special White. I finished with a clear top coat.

Flormar - Magnetic twist

Hi,

Today I'll show you a new magnetic nail polish from Flormar. Unfortunately,

I think this brand is only available in Europe. I got a red shade, called MG05.

It is very easy to use: right after you apply the polish on the nail you put the magnet 

as close to nail as possible and keep it for about 10 seconds. It will look like in the 

picture. After this, I stamped a small, white flower from m66 Konad plate and 

applied a red rhinestone. I finished with a clear top coat. What do you think?

This is how the magnet looks like. It only creates diagonal lines. I will give you a tip: 

take the magnet out from its support so it will be easier to use. The lines aren't so 

emphasized when you use the magnet in its support.

Newspaper nails - TUTORIAL

Hi,

Today I'll show you a very easy to do cute manicure.

Here's what you need: a newspaper, rubbing alcohol, tweezers and

of course, some nail polish.

Firstly, apply a nude base color on your nails. I used 2 coats of Essie-Topless&Barefoot.

Cut 10 pieces of newspaper.

Take a piece of newspaper with the tweezers and put it in the rubbing alcohol.

Then, apply it on your nail. Push it for about 5-10 seconds.

Peel it off and here's what you get:

Don't forget to apply a top coat after you peel the paper or else it will erase.

I chose a glittery top coat from Flormar, but a clear one is good, too.

This is it! Your manicure it done.

White & green spring manicure

Hi,

Today I'll show you another Konadicure.

Actually, this one was hard to to because of the curve on the top of the nail.
