Notd: Sunset and Balloons

Hello, hello!
 
I did this mani a week or two ago and it was nice to go back to "real nail art". It's been forever since I did a landscape or something close to it. I wish I had more time to do it, because I really like doing these manis. They are more time consuming that others manis, but they are totally worth it.

Notd: Spring Plastic Bag Mani

Hello!
 
I am almost catch up with my blog post, yippee!
 
Today I'll show you nails I did only one week ago! It's still fresh haha.
 
I was feeling "spring-y" so I did this plastic bag mani with a little bit stamping! I used my new polishes from Parental Advisory Polish (I feel like they all I talk about lately lol)

Voodoo Doll with "Eternal Doll" by Renaissance Cosmetics

Hello, Reader!
 
Last week I tried a new polish from Renaissance Cosmetics I bought a couple months ago! 
 
I decided to add a little nail art to it, without masking the polish itself.
 

My FIRST Successful Watermatermable

First of all, hello!
 
OMG GUYS. I did it! It took some tears, some frustration, but I finally did it after two years of failing.
 
*Okay I may be exaggerating, I didn't actually cry for that, but it was close haha*
 
That's right my first successful watermarble, people! Thanks to Parental Advisory Polish for their awesome polishes that worked for me! I just couldn't believe when I dipped my fingers and it stayed perfect on my nails. A MIRACLE HAPPENED.

Nailmail Of the (Last) Week: Parental Advisory Polish!

Hello!
 
Recently I bought from Parental Advisory Polish and I hadn't time to post about it until now.
 
Disclaimer: This ain't your mom's polish.
 
Parental Advisory Polish is known for her naughty names. Some may find it offensive, personally I don't have problem with the names.

Geometric Abstract Nail Art

Hello to you, Reader!

Will I see the end of my catch up one day? I don't know. Haha. I'm so behind my normal schedule. Until recently I had zero motivation for keeping the blog up and running but I'm trying to be more diligent with my posting. (Is diligent the right word?)

ANYYYWAAAYS.

Onto the nails.

I did an abstract geometric mani inspired by an image found on Pinterest.


I first started with a sponged background. I used a gray polish to make it "dirty" like in the original picture. I'm not sure you can really see it, but I can see it (maybe because I know it's there).

 
What I like with the abstract side of this mani is that I could do everything I wanted and it still looked cool.

 
THUMB. Hello to you!

 
The overall effect was pretty cool IRL. I like these mani that look so complicate and everything when really it's quite simple. Do you?
 
Happy polishing!
 
Irrationails xo

WNAC - Reciprocal Gradient

Hello!

Gradient is, like you may know, my favorite thing to do. I could wear it all the time in every color combination possible. Reciprocal and scaled gradient are something I recently discover and MAN, I AM IN LOVE. It more time consuming, right, but the effect is so awesome that I don't care the extra time at all.

Imagine my happiness when it was the theme two weeks ago. YASS.

WNAC: Embellishment - Mermaid Nails with Glam Polish

Hello to you!

I still haven't catch up with all the blog posts so we shall continue this today! Three weeks ago I did a full in your face mani for the WNAC and I really loved it!

I bought new polishes from Harlow and Co a little while ago and I was eager to use them, so when it was time to do a mani for the WNAC I jumped on the occasion.

52 Week Challenge - Ikat

Hi y'all!

Can you believe I haven't done any ikat nails since I started doing nail art two(or is it three? God I'm terrible with my memories!) years ago?

In the beginning of March, it was the theme for the week so I grab the chance of finally doing it!

I don't particularly love the ikat manis I've seen everywhere, I think they look odd for some reasons. I was looking through some pins on Pinterest and found something that was kind of inspired or maybe it was an alternate version of an ikat, anyways I liked it and decide to try it on myself.
