The Fault In Our Stars nail art

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you my manicure inspired by TFIOS (Sub aceeasi stea - John Green in Romanian). I've just had time to read it and I totally loved it. It's heartbreaking but beautifully written. Now I'll have to watch the movie, too. I started with two coats of Pure Ice -French Kiss on all nails. I stamped the writing from MoYou London's Scholar plate 02. The design on my ring finger was painted freehand. I finished with clear top coat. What do you think? Have you read the book or watched the movie yet?

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you another manicure in the Getting ready for Christmas Challenge. 

If you want to see all the girls' creations, don't forget to visit Elsa's blog, Like a candy shop.

I started with two coats of Pure Ice -French Kiss and then I applied silver polish (Layla -Metal Chrome) on some nails' tips. Using the same colour, I stamped the Christmas designs from Born Pretty's QA19 plate. Finally, I applied  Farmasi Shimmer Nail Enamel #201 on the silver tips and finished with clear top coat.

Sunset manicure & cute bracelet from eFoxCity

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you my new sunset nail art. I started with a coat of white polish, as a base for the gradient I was going to create. On a sponge, I applied five different shades of nail polishes, as shown in the picture below. The nail polishes used were - from top to bottom - Pure Ice -French Kiss, Zoya -Malia, Sinful Colors -Cream Pink, Picture Polish -Citrus and Avon -Inspire. 

After that, I used Bundle Monster's stamping plates to create the trees (BM-H11) and the flying bird (BM-315). I finished with clear top coat. What do you think?

Did you notice the cute roses bracelet I'm holding? I got it from eFoxCity, an online jewelry store with accessible prices. This is the bracelet shown in the pictures. It actually is a little too big for my hands, but it's still elegant and beautiful. You can order it no matter where you live, because they offer international shipping.

Apart from jewelry, eFoxCity sells some cute wholesale dresses, beach wedding dresses and cheap prom dresses. Visit their website for more information and awesome products.

 

Snowflake nail polish from Born Pretty

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you a cute, glittered manicure I am going to wear this Easter. I started with two coats of Pure Ice -French Kiss and then I applied a single coat  of Snowflake nail polish from Born Pretty. This glitter is #4 on their website and it's amazing. The amount of coloured sequins is really generous and it looks amazing on nails. What I was looking for when I bought this polish was a replacement for Essence -Circus Confetti which I loved, but it was limited edition. I must admit that this polish fulfilled my wish!

Next, I stamped the bunny design from Bundle Monster's BM-302 plate. I followed this tutorial to get the final appearance. Finally, I applied a clear top coat. What do you think?

Navy Valentine's Day manicure

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you a summer-like manicure turned into a Valentine's Day themed one. I started with two coats of Pure Ice -French Kiss and then I stamped the lined design from Cheeky's GA21 plate. I sponged the tips of my ring fingers and pinkies and then stamped the lips design from the same GA21 plate. For my thumb, I used Illamasqua -Alarm as a base colour. I finished with a clear top coat. My inspiration for this manicure was Miss Adelinne's manicure. What do you think?

White and blue manicure

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you a new manicure I made with Konad m57 and m59 image 

plates. I applied two coats of PURE ICE -French Kiss on the middle finger

 and pinky and Matt Dull White from Born Pretty on the other nails. 

I like this white nail polish very much because the coverage is perfect after the 

first layer. It is also very accessible as the web-site ships internationally for free. 

Next, I stamped the designs with special black and white stamping

polishes. I filled in the leopard print with blue polish, using a dotting tool,

put a blue rhinestone on the index and finally, applied a clear top coat.

What do you think?

Spring day manicure

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you a springy manicure I've done and also talk about the Black stamping 

nail polish from a nail art store called Born Pretty. I started with two coats of 

Avon -Aqua Fantasy and then, using the sponge, I applied Pure Ice  -French Kiss on 

the tips. Then I stamped the design from m78 Konad plate with the stamping polish I was 

talking about. The design imprints very well, the color is intense enough and it doesn't 

dry on the stamp before you apply it on the nail. It is in a 3ml bottle, and its price 

is $2.05, with free international shipping. I think it deserves a try if you ran out 

of Konad special polish, because the results are mainly the same. I finished my 

manicure by applying a clear top coat. What do you think?

-French Kiss, a dark blue. Then I applied the black crackling polish from Born Pretty.

with a clear top coat, but matte is nice too. It makes very nice crackles and it only costs $5.50 .
 What is more, they ship internationally and it is free.
