Holly nail art

Hi,

As holidays seem to be coming soon, I decided to start creating themed nail arts. Today 

it snowed for the first time in my town, so it made it quite obvious that Christmas

time is knocking at our doors. If you are seeking for inspiration, please check my

Christmas collection of manicures I made in the previous years, here. 

For this manicure I used two coats of Astor -Fashion Studio #114 and then I applied

two coats of Golden Rose #69 glitter. I just bought this one because it has green and 

red particles which remind me of Christmas. As I don't have any holy design to stamp, 

I improvised and used a part of the flower design from Born Pretty -Hello Kitty plate.

I removed two of the petals with a thin brush and acetone after sticking the design

on the stamper. I created the three red dots using a dotting tool. What do you think?

Go Pink Wednesday -Ribbon manicure

Hi,

Today I'll show you my new pink manicure. For this, I used m63 Konad plate and
three different shades. I started with two coats of Zoya -Jolene, and then I applied
Golden Rose #04, using the sponge technique. I stamped the ribbon design with

Sinful Colors -Dream on over the white base colour. I finished with the Konad 

Special Top Coat. What do you think?

Striped manicure

Hi,

Today I'll show you a manicure I created using striping tape.

I started with two coats of Astor -Fashion Studio #070 and then I cut 3 small pieces of tape 

for each nail. I stuck them diagonally and then, using a sponge, I applied Illamasqua -Nomad

and Golden Rose #04 on the tips. I finished with a clear top coat. This is the final result.

Pink and green water marble

Hi,

Today I'll show you the first water marble I'm wearing and that's because never before did I

 manage to do it. The idea came from the plain, white nails I was wearing the day before.

 As I heard that the colours blend together the best if applied on a white base, why 

not try marbling again? So I took a plastic glass with room-temperature water and 

starting combining the nail polishes. I have a short tutorial on this here, check it out.

This are the shades I used: Green With Envy and Aqua Fantasy from Avon, Funky/Fabulous 

from Claire's and #04 from Golden Rose. 

After the marbling was done I created some white and dark green dots to complete the design.

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

City skyline manicure

Hi,

Today I'll show you a manicure I saw on cutepolish' channel.

I started with two coats of Zoya -Malia and then I applied Miss Sporty #330 on the top 

of my nails using a sponge. I used Illamasqua -Scorn for the buildings and I created 

the lights using a dotting tool and Golden Rose #04. I finished with a clear top coat.

I invite you to watch this video for the technique.

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.
