sweet lace~

Ok ok am back~~ ^^v
Was really lazy lately, feel like going for a vacation or like leave everything back for a weekend for my own from works.. ><
Only did 1 design for this week and it's only on right hand, haha.. i feel stress looking at my left hand full of nail glue and stones to be remove, lolx.. anyway 90% of the stones are still sticking nicely except for some small silver beads near tips are gone cause of washing clothes and plates, cool~~~ that makes me feel like keeping them to see how long can they survive, hahaha...



So this is the design i came up with this week. something simple and easy to archive and let's get started..



As you can see i'm still wearing fakies, it's been 3 full weeks and i'm surprise they are still on my nails without any sign of peeling. I'll probably continue wearing them till they drop off by themselves, haha..


Since the fakies comes with the natural pink (as they are meant for french nails if you look back on my previous posts) i'll leave it as the base color.. you can go on with any nude or light pink polish as your preference...



Next run through the entire nails with glitter polish. Sorry i didn't capture the bottle to show the color, it's kinda like white glitter in clear polish.. Just to add the sweet and girly feel to it, and to give some shine of bling bling... :p



This step can be archive in few ways.
I use 3D lace mold to make these, then just stick on nails when it's dry.
Or, you can choose any lace pattern you like from google and draw it on with white polish..
Or, just make small and big dots referring to my photos, it works the same after all.. :)



Top coat it and you're done..



It was already late evening when i finish doing this nail art, and i fail to snap a good one with natural light as it's getting dark. End up i force to switch on flash light. ><

Oh, did i tell before i hate flash lights? it makes my face looks scary.





But whiten my fingers and the lights can cover all 'wrinkles' on my hand to create the 'blurry-ness' that i normally have to edit with Photoshop, haha...




So, until then..
Everyone take care and be good~ ^^

Bronzygolden bling & Stones in garden

Hey everyone! Sorry for keep you all waiting, here comes my sparkle shimmer blingblingbling nails in 2 different designs~ ^^

#1
Am still wearing my fakies since they are still sticking nicely..
This 1st design is more 'low-profile' and simple but still having the bling-ness at the same time..


The base is actually nude color from the fakies' french.
Added a layer of silver shimmer gradient.
Used bronze and gold flakes in between the nude and gradient..






Idea and inspiration taken from Cynful Nail's blog.
Credit to her chrome stars inlays post..

#2
And here comes the Japanese style's bling! hahaha...



Hehe, got a lot of praise from friends and tutors on both designs, so proud of myself, but who knows they are both so easy and fast?! lolx..



ok, ignore me.
stop praising yourself Rachel........... >v<


Using the same silver shimmer polish like the #1 one but on the entire nails.
Then stick on stones, beads and the flowers as your preference..



This time taken the idea from Cynful Nail's pink florals acrylic post..

And since the lighting and feeling is so right that evening, took more photos of the 'background' decoration, haha..
These are actually my ear rings, background 'image' is my denim dress^^





And how's my new header? ^^
edited the blog template to match with it as well, as the previous orange flake light bg doesn't go well with blue header.. :p

Till next time! everyone be safe and take care~^^

vintage-like flora look~

I got myself Nail Up July copy~^^ went to town nearby 2 days ago and how can i not buy it!!! >v<
Ok so i bought it and i is so happie~ haha.... can't stop the excitement cause i finally own a Nail up magazine. (it's hard to find fresh from Japan nail magazine here.. :( )



If you follow my blog frequently you will know i'm quite busy with assignment lately, so i put on fakies for the sake that fakies need few minutes to stick well on my nails and will stay there nicely without me worrying of polish not drying or whatsoever. And this french design is simple enough to keep my nails looks clean and neat for the time being. :)


Just too bad that is cannot cover my tips entirely cause i still want my 'ori' length to maintain. :(





Anyways, like i say yesterday on previous post, i have some free time today away from assignment, and since i'm eyeing on the nail design on Nail Up cover, decided to transform it to my own nails (i mean the fakies, lolx)..^^

Oh, after i got it and decided to put this design 1st of all, i immediately go get myself the light green (no idea what's that color call. T.T) from The Skin Food, haha..
If you are curious about it, it's BL509.



Until i realize i'm suppose to snap photo for the steps, then i again, realize my camera has to be charge. ><>
But i guess it's not difficult right...





For the flora design, after your base is dry,
simply use your thin brush or dotting tools, like what i used,
draw green short line (the leaf) and then with blue short lines (whatever, to add some layers to the patter) and lastly fill up with light red and red (as the flower).







I replace the gold balls with small flakes as it serve the same purpose..
you may also dot it with gold polish with dotting tools..





Not really use to the fakies's shape on my nails, looks more round. :p
but as what i notice, the polish dries faster on fakies compare to real nails. wonder why?



Ok, till then, everyone take care and be good~ haha..

Elegant Lacey vs Bronze lacey but all fakies~

So i mentioned i'm wearing fake nails form last post, and here it is...


Bought is for quite some time but didn't have the mood wearing it, just thought it looks very nice so i bought and keep it...




I file it down to the length that i'm comfortable with, so i don't need to make myself spending time getting use of having long nails (at least longer than my current one..) for just few days...








I get frustrated on the second day, cause i can't play with nail polish whenever i want, but i still wanted to have long fake one, so i took it off and wear a new set of nails...



Unlike the previous one, i draw and paint this set of nails..


Nice not? hee....



But it only be on my nails for few hours, before i got frustrated again on them.
Not that i don't like what i made, but emo problem i'm just not happy with anything i'm doing... T.T never mind, i'll be fine soon...


Ok i'm tired and sleepy now, show you guys what's on my fingers now tomorrow after i came back from uni good night world~




And thanks to those who comments and subscribe my blog, i really appreciate it!
Muack! :p

Greeny orange~

Separate nails into 2 parts horizontally, 2 coats of green sparkle on the upper one..


apply orange sparkle on the bottom part,
then add a line of silver glitter in between of the 2 colors..


Next while waiting for the polish to dry, take a olive polish and draw some curve lines on a plastic bag and wait to dry..

Tried to use this same method on hard plastic box with acrylic paint before but didn't really success cause acrylic sticks stronger on plastic than nail polish so it's hard to take it out..
At the end i just took out 1 from the plastic box but it's spoilt , the rest are still there.. XP

Then saw video clips from Tanja using this way to do nails too and make me wanna try it again, and yeah~ Bingo~ tehee...

Use tweezers to take the polish up from plastic bag..


apply coat of clear polish on the nail
then continue using the tweezers or orange stick to stick it on the nail..


Added some glitter also..
top coat then done~


Product used:
*no-brand dark green sparkle
*TheFaceShop Twinkle orange
*Silver glitter thin tips polish
*SkinFood pedicure sparkle 02
*Artpac white nylon series no.1
*plastic bag



And ya, i like Tanja's video~ :)

Black & White French~

A different version of french in black and white using Konad..

First i cut out the curve shape on piece of tape,
then stick it on the nails and paint the empty are with black polish..





Using Konad m39 i first stamp the flower on the point/corner of the black tips
and follow by m71 the ribbon lines on the edge of french tips, both with white polish..


Added 2 layers of beige color on the empty area of the nail, just to fill in some color other than showing the fake nail's color, hehe..
Stick a rhinestone on it too, then top coat..


Product used:
*TheFaceShop BR801
*Elianto Twillight Zone40
