Inspired by: Partialtopolish's Gradient with Grid Nail Art

Hello to you, Reader!

 

Today's post is inspired by the amazing Bailey behind PartialToPolish! She's a fellow nail enthusiast, she's so sweet and she's CANADIAN, YAAAS. She always do nail art I wouldn't think to do and it always turn out pretty awesome!

 

So, when she did this nail art three weeks ago, I was like: Omg. I need to do this. So pretty!

 

Watermarble with Girly Bits "Hoop! There It Is!" Collection

Hello!

 

I received not long ago the new collection from Girly Bits Cosmetics (some of it) and let me tell you. I FRAAAKING LOVE THEM.

 

They are inspired from the new favorite hobby of the GirlyBits chief: hula hoop! The collection is a total of 12 shades, I think? I only bought half of it. (Self control here haha).

 

52 Week Challenge - Fishbraid

Hello!

 

Last week I didn't do the prompts for the 52 Weeks Challenge but this week I'm back on track!

 

Fishbraid mani is one of the things I have never done before. I don't know why exactly. Maybe I was a little bit scared of trying something new. After my experience today with this kind of mani, I can say that this was kind of really easy and it has a neat effect in the end.

 

Shall we see?

 

Blue, Bling & Black!

I'm on fire!

haha.

Seriously. I think it's the first time I post twice in the same week. Maybe this blog will see more life in the future!!

I'm so happy to be back at school. It's funny because when I graduated I was like: "School. Never. Again. I swear." And then, there's me, three months later. "I can't wait for school to begin.."

AAAANYWAY.

Onto the nails!

I manage slowly but surely to reduce my untried pile. You know that pile who never seems to be ending. It just keeps adding and adding. Until you have to restrict yourself. (Or at least try with a no-buy...)

I used for this mani two untried: "A Stripper Has Been Sleeping In My Bed" by GirlyBits and
"Pacific Blue" (the new horrible formula) by Sally Hansen.

I wanted something simple with a little touch of glitter. BECAUSE GLITTER.

It was only until I took the pictures that I saw that my cuticles were dry. Poor little things. Sorry for your eyes, ladies. (We shall not talk about my cleaning. Seriously, I don't know what happened.) Look only the nails, try to focus. I'm going to give them some TLC!

Indirect/Natural light

 

 I really like "A Stripper Has Been Sleeping In my Bed". It's so glittery. And the name. The name gets an A+.

Indirect/Natural light

Indirect/Sun (Yes I changed my hand. What the..)

 

You can see on the last picture I had a little problem with my chevron. I didn't apply my vinyls right so this is what it looks like when you don't follow the rules, kid!

 

Products used: "Pacific Blue"(Sally Hansen), "A Stripper Has Been Sleeping In My Bed" (GirlyBits) and "Black On Black"(Sinful Colors)

 

Happy Labor Weekend! (For those who don't work... like me..)

 

Happy polishing!

Purple Gradient Nail Art

Wooo. Time flies!

It's been almost three weeks since I last posted.

To be honest, I didn't have nothing interesting to post. I am newly employed at the hospital and I was in formation for the last three weeks. Since it's a pediatric hospital, they don't allow nail polish on their employees. Whaaaaaat. Yeah. You read it. So I was only doing my nails on the weekend when I was not working. And most of the time, it was only plain ol' color. (Pretty color, but only one color.)

Now, I began my certification and I'm back at school which means I can do mah nails!!! Happy dance!!

First thing first.

Yesterday was the Lacquer Legion time of the month and the theme was Weird Science. I was really excited since I am ''scientific'' person. I knew right away what I wanted to do. Biological Hazard Nails. That was the design I had in mind when I posted about this polish three weeks ago ;)

This is what it looked in the end. I'm really pleased with it! On my other hand I painted the nuclear sign, but I was too impatient so I smudged my design right after I was done! LOL. Oh well.

 

Products used: Generally Hazzardous (Pretty Serious Cosmetics) (So sad, we can't see the golden shimmer :( ) and Black On Black (Sinful Colors)

NOW. The real star of today's post. Gradient nails are the best thing. There is so much choice of colors. It's infinite. That's what I like so much about gradients. No one can make the same choice (except if you want to replicate someone's gradient. ;))

Indirect/Natural light. 

 

Indirect/Natural light.

 

 

Indirect/Direct sun.

 

Isn't it beautiful??

 

Products used: "Well Isn't That Special" (Girly Bits Cosmetics), ''Relative Dimensions" (Above the Curve) and "Indie Go" (ILNP). I topped this beauty with HK Girl (Glisten and Glow)

 

Do you like gradient nails? What's your favorite color combo?

 

Happy polishing!
