More Holo Nail Art: Holo Cirlces

 Playing again with my new Color Club Halo Hues! This time I used Miss Bliss, Eternal Beauty, Beyond, and Cosmic Fate.

I started out with two  coats of Sally Hansen's InstaDri Mint Sprint.   Then I added random triple arches in black, purple, and yellow-green Halo Hues.   Last I accented open spaces with dots of Cosmic Fate. 





This manicure surprise me with how great it turned out.  As you probably know, sometimes nail art can go horribly wrong or incredibly right.   This is decidedly right!

Note to self:  use more holos in nail art!

Holo Swirls and Dots

I have yet to fully try out my new Color Club 2013 Halo Hues but I did get to use Kismet, Cosmic Fate, and Over the Moon in some quick nail art for you. 


I started out with two coats of Chelsea's Kaleidoscope.


Then I added swirls with Over the Moon and Cosmic Fate.   Last I added dots of various sized and order to accent the swirls and other nails.







This nail art was fast, easy, and very cool to look at.  Are you tired of holos yet on this blog?  Its rather obvious I have a bit of a holo habit.   I can't wait to use the new Color Clubs in stamping and water marbling because these colors beg for it!

Week 38 of the Year of Polish Challenge: Metallic Mani, in the style of Dots



This week's challenge was a metallic or magnetic mani.  I never really jumped on the magnetic polish bandwagon so I chose metallic.  I saw a retro 80s gold and black shirt with cool design and made it my own with Sinful Colors Black on Black and China Glaze Silver Platinum.    I love how graphic this nail art is!

Week 16 of the Year of Polish Challenge: Gradient Dotticure


I've been wanting to try a gradient using the one step sponge gradient technique from LaynieFingers so I  did it tonight.  But then I remember that my challenge this week is a dotticure.  And my brain smashed the two manis together and the Gradient Dotticure was born!



I did the gradient just like Laynie did with a white base color and gradient colors in Wild Rose, Disco Purple, and Iceberg Lotus.  I then applied small dots in reverse color order.  The Wild Rose didn't show up very good on top of Disco Purple so I added dots in Dream on.  These look pretty cool in my opinion!
