One Stroke Flowers

Hello ladies!

Today I have some nail art to show you guys - a skittlette feauturing one stroke flowers!

For the manicure I started off with a light blue base of Deborah Lippmann Blue Orchid on all my nails except my pinky which I painted with the blue scattered holo piCture pOlish Forget Me Not. Afterwards I used a brush and blue and white acrylic paint to make the one stroke flowers on my middle and ring finger.

I really love this manicure!

Twin Nails

Hi girls!

Today I have something different to show you guys - twin nails I did with the sweet Selina of @nailsbyselina.
We also used these manicures for a Danish challenge called MandagsMani (MondayMani), where the theme this week is window, which we interpreted as looking into a mirror (instead of out a window) and mirroring each other.

For the manicure I started off with the lilac creme Essie Lilacism on my thumb and pointer, the lilac/silver scattered holo piCture pOlish Lizzie on my middle and ring finger, and the dark purple scattered holo piCture pOlish Hussy on my pinky.
For the nail art on middle and ring finger I water marbled using Essie Lilacism, piCture pOlish Lizzie and piCture pOlish Hussy.

Doing twin nails was really fun and I hope it is not the last time I get the opportunity.

Fancy Friday: Inspired by Fancy Friday

Hi girls!

The challenge for this week's Fancy Friday is to be inspired by another member of Fancy Friday.
I had a really hard time choosing just one manicure to be inspired by as the other members of Fancy Friday are some really talented and amazing ladies. After a lot of trouble I managed to limit myself to two manicures.

For the first manicure I was inspired by this manicure by Sofie Amalie at According to Malle.
I started off with a base of the beautiful blue Sally Hansen Pacific Blue on all my nails. Afterwards I used a straw, the black polish Essie Licorice and the silver polish Essie No Place Like Chrome to achieve the splatter effect by dipping the straw in the polish and blowing the polish onto the nails.

For the second manicure I was inspired by this manicure by Sussi at Negle Nymfer.
I started off with a pink base of Essie Lovie Dovie. Afterwards I used the brushes in the white polish OPI Alpine Snow followed by the pink/red Essie Double Breasted Jacket to make the cloud effect.

I wish I could have done 20 manicures - one for each of the members of Fancy Friday!

Polka Dots

Hello ladies!

Today I have some nail art that I am really happy with to show you guys featuring some glitter placement that turned out awesome!

For the manicure I started off with a blurple (blue/purple) base of OPI Do You Have This Color in Stock-Holm? on all my nails except for my pinky which I painted with the silver texture polish OPI It's Frosty Outside. For the nail art on my middle and ring finger I placed white, round glitters from Born Pretty Store (#2370) in a polka dot pattern.

As I said I really, really love this manicure!

Camouflage

Hey guys!

Today I made some simple nail art featuring both camouflage and neon. Opposites attract as they say!

For the manicure I started off with a dusty green base of Essie Fall in Line on all of my nails except for my pinky which I painted pink with Essie Bottle Service. For the camouflage pattern on my middle and ring finger I used a medium sized dotting tool and the following polishes: Essie Going Incognito, Essie Chinchilly and Essie Absolutely Shore. To finish off the skittlette I applied pink, square studs from Born Pretty Store (#12408 in the color #2) to my middle and ring finger.

For some reason my camera could not capture the true color of the pinky even though it was almost identical in color to the studs - so annoying.

I really like how weird and fun this manicure is!

Saran Wrap

Hey guys!

Today I made a simple skittlette manicure using the saran wrap technique.

For the manicure I started off with a green base of piCture polish Chillax on my pointer and thumb, a white base of OPI Alpine Snow on my middle and ring finger, and a silver base of By K. Moon Dust on my pinky. For the nail art on my middle and ring finger I applied random drops of piCture polish Chillax, piCture polish Instinct, and By K. Moon Dust around the nail and smeared it together using a piece of saran wrap.

A tutorial of this will be up later!

Fancy Friday: Striping Tape

Hello ladies!

The challenge for this week's Fancy Friday is striping tape and I decided to make a skittlette manicure (surprise, surprise). On two of the nails I used the striping tape to make a french line and on my accent nail I was inspired by @missbellatracey to cover the whole nail in striping tape.

For the manicure I started off with a red base of Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Pop Art on all my nails except for my pinky which I covered completely in rows of gold striping tape. On my middle and ring finger I applied one line of striping tape to make a french line.

I am so happy with the result!
