Studded

Imperfections make perfect.  Even if every glitter hex did not make it in a perfect line, this manicure was really fun to have on.  The glitter really took it's intended page on center stage.

I painted three coats of Orly Rock-It and I used Silver hex glitter from Esther's Nail Center.  Two coats of Seche Vite was the top coat.

Red Orange Mix

Seemingly contrasting, really came together as a nice compliment.  Plus, I love both of these colors, so I knew it could only mean right.  The third picture gives a more true to life idea of the orange color.

I used Zoya Isla and OPI A Roll In The Hague for this look.  Both with three coats.  Seche Vite was my top coat.

Rimmel Lycra Pro -Ultra violet & m36 + m73 Konad stamping

Hi,

Today I'll show you a manicure I made combining various nail polishes.I started with two coats of Rimmel Lycra Pro -312 Ultra violet. This nail polish has a wider brush than other nail polishes and it is easier to apply the product. It has a perfect coverage and an incredibly quick dry time. I sponged the tips using China Glaze -Re-fresh mint and then I stamped the flowery lace from m73 Konad plate using Special White. Then, I stamped the butterfly design from m36 Konadplate using Astor Quick'n go -no.17 . I finished with a clear top coat. What do you think?

Create stripes using dotting tools

Hi,

Today I'll show you a new technique to make an abstract, striped manicure.

All you need for it is three different-coloured nail polishes and, surprisingly,

a dotting tool. If you don't have the latter, you might as well use a toothpick,

the tip of a bobby pin or a sewing pin. 

I started with two coats of Illamasqua -Gamma and then I created thinner and

thicker stripes using Sinful Colors -Amethyst and Astor -Iconic Red.

You don't have to use this colours, any other combination will look good.

Unfortunately I don't have a tutorial for this design, but please watch this Youtube tutorial

that inspired me, too. What do you think?

Hot pink manicure

Hi,

Today I'll show you a manicure I made freehand.

I started with two coats of Picture Polish -Hot and then, using some dotting tools, 

I created a big, black dot on each nail, with Stripe Rite -Black. Using the same 

technique but doing smaller dots, I created white ones with Stripe Rite -White and

then pink ones, with the same color as the base coat. Then I created random smaller 

dots with black and white. I finished with a clear top coat.
