[Nail-Art-A-Go-Go] Day 12: Camouflage


Today's nail art challenge is camouflage! I've never done a camo nails before, so this was new. I'm not really a fan of the print, so I went with red and pink, instead of green and tan. I think it's fitting since Vday is coming up. ;)

I didn't want to make the entire nail camo, so I made these decals using a sandwich bag. You can see my tutorial here.

[Nail-Art-A-Go-Go] Day 4: Monochrome

Hi guys! Here's my mani for day 4 of the Nail-Art-A-Go-Go nail art challenge! Since it's now officially February, I decided to work with variations of pink to create a V-day look.

[Nail Art] Foxy Valentine


  
Hi guys! I can't believe Valentine's day merchandise was already up in stores this year as soon as Christmas ended! Now that it's actually getting closer, I decided to partake in some cutesy nail art. Nothing too pink or red (yet), just some super amazingly adorable fox nail art. ;)


Polishes Used
Fox | Milani Colorful Coral (new 2014)
White details | Milani White (new 2014)
Black details | Milani Black Swift
Middle + Pinky | China Glaze Kinetic Candy


As expected, the Milani cremes were excellent for nail art due to their high opacity and easy-to-work-with formula. Isn't the coral color just perfect for the fox? Oh, and if you're wondering what "Chu♥" means, it denotes a kissing sound in Korean. Like "mwah" in English. I think it was made popular by Kpop group f(x).

If you're wondering what I used for all the drawings, it's this BPS brush set*! I can't recommend this set enough. It's my favorite from BPS so far, because the brushes give you so much control. I had no problem getting every detail exactly where I wanted. The tips are small and pointed, so you can get some pretty precise lines.

As always, you can use my code F10X31 to get 10% off your order. :)



What do you think? Are you a fan of Vday nail art? :)

Valentine's Day Nail Art: Sequin Heart Youtube Tutorial

Hey all!

I know I promised a swatch post, but I got caught up filming and editing this tutorial!  This is a quick tutorial for the look I showed a few weeks ago.  Now that I've figured out a comfortable filming set up, I think I'll be doing these video tutorials more. :)  Are there any past looks you would like to see?

Anyway, here's the tutorial below!  Definitely send me a pic on twitter if you do this.  Hope you like it! :)

VDAY: Sequin Heart Nail Art


Here's a true Valentine's Day mani for you!  Nothing screams Vday like a big sequin heart.  I painted a red heart on my nail first before laying down the sequins to make sure there were no empty gaps.  Then I outlined it with a gold striping polish.  It looks like Seche Vite pulled some of it into the heart though as it was drying. :/  The heart reminds me of cherry filling...and the polish - a strawberry banana smoothie. x)

Vday Nail Art: SinfulColors Tutu & Quilted Hearts

Happy belated Valentine's Day!  I hope everyone had a good one.  I was going to post this mani yesterday, but unfortunately I got sick after class and had to spend the rest of it in bed.  The nice thing was when I woke up, there were Valentine's gifts on my bed. :)

Oh and thank you to everyone who left some feedback on my last post!  I guess I can't please every monitor, but I'll try to strike a happy medium.  At least I'm going easy on the saturation button now.  Hopefully this way, my pictures will be accurate on more computers. ^^

Now on to the pictures!
