Minimalistic

Hey guys!

Today I have some simple nail art to share with you!

I started off with a black base of Essie Licorice. Afterwards I freehanded the checkered pattern with a thin nail art brush and watered-down white acrylic paint.


NOTD with OOTD.


I think this mani turned out really awesome!

Marimekko

Hey guys!

Today I have some nail art inspired by Marimekko and some twinsie nails by Very Emily and One Nail to Rule them All.

For the manicure I started off with a red base of Essie Really Red on my thumb and pointer, a white base of CND Cream Puff on my middle and ring finger, and a pink base of Essie Watermelon on my pinky. Afterwards I freehanded the Marimekko flowers on my middle and ring finger using a small nail art brush, Essie Really Red, Essie Watermelon, the yellow polish By K. Dandelion, and the black polish Essie Licorice.


Close up!


I really like freehanded florals designs like this one!

piCture pOlish Rebelle

Hey guys!

Today I have a swatch and review of the beautiful piCture pOlish Rebelle.
Rebelle is a light peach polish with scattered holo particles.

The formula on this polish is perfect - it is easy to apply and glides on the nails like butter! The opacity is good and it is opaque in two to three coats.


I think this polish is so stunning!

Scaled Gradient

Hey guys!

Today I have my very first scaled gradient to share with you!

I started off with a white base on all my nails. Afterwards I used a make-up sponge, piCture pOlish Sorbet, piCture pOlish Chillax and piCture pOlish Instinct to create a gradient on about half my nail. When that was completely dry (use a quick-drying top coat) I applied a chevron nail vinyl and used the make-up sponge and the same polishes to create the same gradient on the other half of my nail.


I am definitely trying this technique again - I really like it!

Roses

Hey guys!

Today I made a quick manicure using one of my new piCture pOlish polishes - Rose!

For the manicure I started off with a dark pink base of piCture pOlish Rose on all my nails. Afterwards I freehanded the roses on my middle and ring finger with white acrylic paint and a small nail art brush.


This polish is amazing: one coat, creamy formula, beautiful color - need I say more?

Chevrons

Hey guys!

Today I have some nail art inspired by Very Emily to share with you!

For the manicure I started off with a light blue base of the beautiful piCture pOlish Salt Water on all my nails. Afterwards I used the stamping plate MoYou London Fashionista 05, a clear jelly stamper, the black polish Essie Licorice and the white polish CND Cream Puff to double stamp the design on all my nails.


Macro shot!


I am loving this funky look!

piCture pOlish Spring

Hey guys!

Today I have a swatch and review of the beautiful piCture pOlish Spring.
Spring is a purple-leaning pink polish with scattered holo particles.

The formula is amazing and easy to apply - it is a little on the thick side, but I prefer it that way. The opacity is great as well and it is opaque in two thin coats.


I love this shade - it is the perfect pink that is not too girly.
