Come back post

Hello! It's been several months since I last posted here. I don't know why but..I just lost the interest of doing nail art. My nail polishes grew cold and lonely! I paint my nails once in a while but that's it. JUST PAINT IT PLAINLY. I also gave away my nail art brushes and acrylic paint because I don't think I would use it anymore. Hmmmm :|

So why am I still here? Hahaha. I still don't have the answer to that. I just felt like blogging. I am planning to turn this into a personal blog where I can post things other than nail art.

As a come back post, I will show you five nail designs which were done in the past. Here they are!


#1 Copper/Gold Glitter Nails: It's loaded with lots of glitters!

#2 Floral Nail Decals: Are these Cherry Blossoms?

#3 Watermelon Acrylic Design: Epic fail. Now you know why I gave away my acrylic stuff!

#4 White, gray and black gradient: Reminds me of cement

# 5 Peacock! 

That's it! I hope I can blog again soon :>

Pink gradient + stamp

Another quick post for today, here is a gradient mani, stamped!

I used three shades of pink to create the gradient. Then used a full image from my stamp. I wanted a subtle look so I used a white polish in stamping.

That's all! Have a good day everyone! 

Cracked!

These are my nails as of the moment. And yes, another gradient mani! I find this quite similar to OPI's Black Shatter here reviewed by polishorperish.blogspot.com.

Mine is not from a familiar brand like OPI. It is labeled Monaliza Cracking Polish.I guess its another unfamiliar brand from China. Haha, i'm a fan of cheap, china polishes. They come in a variety of colors plus they're really cheap! It is an 18ml cracking polish which only costs a hundred peso (2 USD). It is CHEAP!

I used three colors for the background. Here are the polishes I used. I won't be listing their specific names as I find it unnecessary. Hahahaha. Comment here, if you would really want to know. :D The middle polish is a really nice shade of blue. I love it. Love the other colors as well. These can be dupes to expensive polishes like OPI and China Glaze.

The cracking polish when applied, looks a charcoal-ish black almost close to dark gray.  A top coat is needed to make it opaque! I used Bobbie for my top coat. There!  

I love looking at this mani! 

 Monaliza's Cracking polish is only my second cracking mani. My sister owns a pink BK Cracking Polish (Photo from Google). BK cracking polishes produce small cracks. They look like wall cracks to me! They also fade easily! :| But this one I own has a good lasting strength! (been wearing this for four days now, no fade, no chip! )

One bad thing about this polish is its scent! It has a really strong one! Euw! Scares me! You must apply this real fast! Only a thin coat of this polish is needed to achieve the look. I think it will take years for me to empty this bottle. Would it last for a year? Hehe. Anyway, I will still be buying a new one. I want a bright cracking polish!

Cracking polishes are cool! Goodnight!

Zebra gradient nails!

Gradient zebra!

As I said in my previous post, I was inspired by Rebecca's gradient nails stamped with zebra prints. You can check her tutorial here. Well, hers is way better than mine. Sadly, my nails are too short to display all the three colors (yellow, orange and pink). I can't wait for these to grow longer!

A closer look. 

I enjoyed doing this mani! Gradients are fun to make, the end results will always surprise you! I never knew that these three colors would look good together. But, thanks for the great idea, Rebecca! Zebra lines were done freehand. My stamping skills were not yet good enough, I cannot transfer images well. I shall practice!

My DIY dice ring. :D Yes, i love DIYs too!

This is the best that I could do. I will do gradient more often! :> Goodnight, ladies!
