Sea waves nail art

Tweet

I think that what I like the most about summer is that I can paint sea related manicure on my nails. I've been really missing the sea waves on my nails so I decided to do a saran wrap. The technique is quite easy (you only need some wrapping foil and two or three nail polish shades) and you can find tutorials on how to do it with a simple search on youtube. Here you can see some of my previous saran wrap manicures for more inspiraition. 

I started this nail art with white nail polish as a base colour and then I used two shades of blue, white and silver for the saran wrap. I added a sea shell from Born Pretty store on my accend nail and I finished with Seche Vite clear top coat for some extra shine.

Celebrating summer

Tweet

Hi.

As you may have already figured out, what I love the most about summer is mixing nail polishes and getting radiant combinations. For this manicure, I created a saran wrap with pink and yellow.  I used Rimmel - Neon fest and Rimmel - Daisy days over a white base and mixed them using clear wrapping foil. On my ring finger, I applied a bow-knot nail art charm and sealed it with clear top coat. What do you think? Would you wear it this summer?

Shiny unicorn nails

Hi,

Today I'll show you a new colourful holographic manicure. I started this nail art with a coat of white nail polish and after it dried, I applied a few drops of Rimmel - Tangerine Taint, Trind - Burst My Bubble and El Corazon - Matte Effect #145 Neon on each nail and created the saran wrap base. Then I applied a coat of ILNP - My Private Rainbow, which is a beautiful holographic top coat. On my accent nail, I created a shiny silver unicorn using a stencil from TwinkledT's Animal Variety Vinyls pack. The rhinestones are from Born Pretty store and you can find them here on their website. I finished with clear top coat to seal in everything. What do you think?

1st of March nails

Tweet

Hi,

First of all, let me say that I wish you all a happy spring, full of happiness and love! Here in Romania, we wear trinkets with red and white yarns in the honour of the 1st of March. It's our way to celebrate spring's arrival, therefore today's manicure will be a themed one. 

Considering the occasion, I decided to go for a saran wrap nail art, as it was the best way to beautifully mix red and withe together. I started with a coat of Avon - Iceberg white on all nails. On my middle and ring fingers, I firstly applied some scotch tape on the edges and then did the saran wrap. The technique is simple: you just pour randomly some drops of white and red polish and them, using transparent wrap, you mix everything until you achieve the wanted effect. The red polish I used is Rimmel - 318 Stand to attention. I finished with clear top coat on all nails and applied some square silver studs from Born Pretty store on the accent nails.

Saran wrap nails

Tweet

Hi,
Today I'll show you a manicure I created for a maniswap on Instagram with @whispersofthewind. I recreated her chevron manicure on a saran wrap base.
Watch this tutorial for details on how to do a saran wrap nail art. I know there are a lot of techniques you can use for this type of manicure, but I find this one the easiest. I used only three polishes to do it: China Glaze -Sun of a Peach, China Glaze -Too Yacht To Handle and Rimmel -312 Ultra Violet. I finished with clear top coat.

After my base completely dried, I applied extra wide chevrons and topped with white nail polish (the white nail polish I'm currently using is ProNails - Extreme White). After removing the vinyls, I again applied clear top coat. 

I got my chevrons online, from Nails Redesigned. Below you can see my entire order. I really like all the vinyls because they are not too sticky, which makes them easy to handle and remove. Their prices are accessible and international shipping is available. I received my order really fast - about 10 days - considering I am on the other side of the world.
