Fancy Friday: Watercolor

Hello ladies!

Time for some more Fancy Friday nail art!
Today the challenge is watercolor and I made a very simple skittlette manicure with a watercolor base.

For the manicure I started off with a white base of Essie Blanc. Afterwards I used the OPI Sheer Tints: I'm Never Amberassed (yellow), Be Magentale With Me (pink), Don't Violet Me Down (purple) and I Can Teal You Like Me (blue) to make the watercolor background of the manicure. On my ring and middle finger I applied a small, square stud from Born Pretty Store (#5003) and on my pinky I applied the silver glitter China Glaze Fairy Dust.

I made a watercolor manicure once before and I love it just as much this time!

Pastel Studs

Hey guys!

Today I have some simple nail art to share with you featuring pastel studs.

For the manicure I started off with a white base of Essie Blanc. Afterwards I applied some pastel blue and pastel pink studs using a wax pen to easily pick them up and place them on the manicure (review of the wax pens here).

The studs that I used for this nail art are from the Born Pretty Store. They come in a wheel (#12408) with three different colors (this one has pastel blue, pastel pink, and pastel orange) and four different shapes (leaf, round, and small and big squares). They also come in three other color combinations, that I already ordered (they are so pretty)!
I really like this wheel as the colors are amazingly beautiful, there are a lot of different shapes to choose from and you get a lot for your money (it's only 2.96$)!

Wax Pen Review

Hi girls!

Today I have a review of some wax pens from the Born Pretty Store to share with you guys!

Wax pens are practical nail tools that are becoming more and more popular in the nail art world. They are used to pick up and place rhinestones, studs, beads and other nail art decorations on to your manicures.

The wax pens I received from the Born Pretty Store (#3975) came unsharpened, but when I had sharpened them like I would a normal pencil, they worked like a charm! They are made of soft wax, which need to be moistened a little at the very tip before it can stick to and hold the studs, but after that they can pick up pretty much any size studs - from the biggest ones (as in the picture) to the smallest beads. They come in packs of two and they are really cheap (only $1.99)!

I love how easy these wax pens are to use - so much better than tweezers. They are really useful and a must-have for a nail art addict like myself.

Fall Skittlette

Hi girls!

Today I have some fall nail art to share with you guys - a super simple fall skittlette manicure.

For the manicure I started off with a dusty purple base of Essie Smokin' Hot (one of my favorite shades for fall) on all my nails. Afterwards I applied some gold diamond-shaped studs on my ring and middle finger using a wax pen to easily pick up the studs (review on the wax pens will be up monday). To finish of the skittlette manicure I applied a gold leaf top coat from Dance Legend on my pinky.

The studs that I used for this nail art are from the Born Pretty Store. They come in a wheel (#5003) with gold and silver studs in tons of different shapes and sizes - hearts, stars, squares and diamonds to name a few. I really like this wheel as there is a lot of different studs to pick from and you get a lot for your money (it's only 3.67$)!
