piCture pOlish Big Bang

Hey guys!

Today I have a swatch and review of the beautiful piCture pOlish Big Bang to share with you!
Big Bang is a dark purple polish with scattered holo and flakies.

The formula is good - a little on the thick side for my preference, but not too bad. The opacity is great and it is opaque in two coats.


And close-up!


This polish is so unique and amazingly beautiful!

Black Stone

Hey guys!

Today I have a simple black marble skittlette to share with you!

For the manicure I started off with a black base of Essie Licorice on my middle and ring finger, and a blue base of Essie Style Cartel to my pinky, pointer, and thumb. Afterwards I freehanded the abstract stone marble on my middle and ring finger with black and white acrylic paint and a small nail art brush. To finish everything off I applied the silver stud to my ring finger.


This did not turn out quite as I had hoped, but I still like it though.

Minimalistic

Hey guys!

Today I have a mani swap that I did with @lsdoesnails to share with you!


For the manicure I started off with striping tape across the nail and the white nail polish CND Cream Puff to create the white square and negative space effect. Afterwards I placed striping tape in the form of a triangle and colored it in with watered down black acrylic paint.


I am really loving this minimalistic nail art!
