New Christmas Samples

Christmas is my favorite season. Brings such joy and happiness. It lets you to play with the colors and create nice, cheerful designs. Nowadays there so many different techniques than in the past when we were mainly using nail polishes to draw

Christmas Balls

There is the last post for today. To be honest I got tired of typing :( . I love making nails and picturing them but not making posts at about them or at least not that many in one go :(

Xmas balls were made by placing tiny ball of uv gel to create the 3d effect. Before that you need to draw a circle with black gel paint, cure it, sprinkle glitter/print foil or additive.
After the ball is cured well, wipe off the tacky layer, draw some patterns over it with white gel paint and sprinkle grey or white micro glitter. Cure then remove excess glitter.

And again red nails, almond and Xmas theme. Wow... too much Xmas decorations that month :)

Bow, Gift & Branches

The last post for today is again about Christmas design.

Much different from others, it became so nice.  On the French nails I made some traditional staff for Christmas and some dots here and there .

 

 

Shugar Effect

Good morning Ladies!

Just popped to show you quickly what I have created with my new product. Recently I have received my new builder gel, one movement slant brush,tec. I have ordered some micro glitters to create that popular sugar effect on nails, but my supplier didn't get it, so to please me Kinga Lukazewska from Brillbird sent me as a present gold micro glitter. Just to say thank you I am sharing with you her e-mail if someone wants to order any of Brillbird amazing products brillbirdlondon@gmail.com. She can send you online catalog to have a look at the products.

 

 

 

Let me tell you how you can make those lovely Christmas designs. Very popular this winter, they make you look unique.

 

Steps:

1. Apply base coat and cure

2. Apply 2 coats of you desire colour and cure each for 2 mins

3. Apply a coat finish gel from First Gel ( or gel polish top coat) and cure

4. If you apply finish gel from First gel you don't have sticky layer and you can proceed with making swirls with black One stroke UV painting gel. Than sprinkle micro glitter on the wet paint. Than cure for 2 mins.

 

If you applied gel polish top coat, you need to wipe off and than buff the nail plate. Than proceed with drawing swirls and sprinkling glitter. Than cure.

 

5. With dust brush remove the excess glitter.

6. Apply top coat and cure. I prefer on designs to apply non-wipe off top coat, in case you didn't cure well and might damage the design.

 

Hope you like them.

Have a try and show me your ones.... :)

Christmas Samples

Hello!

Wow, it passed such a long time since I haven't made any posts.

Its Christmas time and all making designs in light of that festive season. I still didn't have ladies requiring them, but just to prepare myself created some new ones.

 

All are made with Bluesky gel polish and CND additives. Using black gel paint from First Gel I made some elements and sprinkled glitter and afterwards cured the nails for 2 minutes. Then brush away the excessive glitter and top coated them.

 

 

Five To Twelve

Good evening,

I am here again to show you several things. Lets start first with the design I made the last minute before the new year.

The main colour I used is red from KIKO Laser Nail Lacquer 432. Ring nails, which will be the accent ones I painted with another KIKO polish and it is French Manicure 206. They both are really lovely and good quality lacquers. There was an offer just £2.50 each so  I could not resist the temptation to get them.

After the polish dried well I applied some foil glue and when it became transparent I put the foil on the nail. Steps how to make it I showed you earlier.

 There is ..the foil is ready and covered with the special top coat. Then with black acrylic paints and detail brush draw the numbers and lines to look like a clock. Add some white snowflakes and dots.

And at the end covered it with Seche Vitte fast dry top coat....

It is snowing - II

Happy New Year to all my followers and friends,

Hope the firs day of the year for you started well.

Today when I am still practising new designs with foil, just popped in to show you what I have done during the last days of  2013.

 This is not something new to be honest just this time I used another colour polish 198AZURE RIMMEL from I love long lasting finish collection. On the accent nail I chose this time to have hand made with acrylic paints white teddy bear, which for my son looked like snowman.....

 

Poinsettia, Bowls & Father Christmas

Hello again from me,

in my second post today will show how I chose to be my nails this Christmas.

 

First I sponged the white polish on the nails and then cover it with glitter top coat to make them look like fairytale. Then I added  water transfer decals bowls  and on the right hand father Christmas. On the left hand I made with acrylic paints poinsettia on the ring nail and the thumb. Then applied top coat.........

 

 The design first made on tips....

Alright this is from me for today....

Take care....

LYCHEE 319

Good morning,

Hope you all had good Christmas.

The first post for today will a nail polish review. It is from Barry M Jelly Hi - Shine edition and it will be the last one I am showing from that collection. All others you have seen during the summer.

 It is applied in two coats and without top coat. As you see it is really shiny.
And just because I do not like to see my nails without any decoration I decided to add some snowflakes and reindeer, which I printed with the lovely stamping plates I got from Nail World contest. Then I made some white dots and glitter at the beginning of the nail.

 

Christmas & New Years Tips

Hello again!

This  post is  dedicated to the upcoming Christmas and New Year`s holidays!

I hope you are looking forward Christmas to come.

These are the new tips I painted for this year`s holidays.

 This design you already saw in my previous post.

 All nails have been painted with acrylic paints and some covered with shellac top coat instead of regular one. Just added on some of them glitter.

 

Black Matte & Poinsettia

Good morning beauties,

Do you like this red Christmas flower Poinsettia?

What do you know about it? Do you know where it comes from?

Poinsettia or Ponsetiya a plant of the family Euphorbiaceae. Home of the poinsettia are the tropical regions of Mexico and Guatemala. There she found as shrubs with height 3 - 4 m.

      After this interesting fact lets see my nail design with it. I painted my nails black matte colour, which gives posh look of the nails and added some red hexagonal glitters here and there, which I got from Nail World's contest.

 Poinsettia I made with acrylic paints and then covered all nails with Orly matte top coat.

Hope you like my Christmas flower and see you soon mates...

Wrapping Bow - Tutorial

Hello again,

 

Here in this post you can find in steps how to make the bow.

It is easy just follow the steps.

 

After you paint the nail in colour you wish, on the ring nail outline the bow with white paint or polish. Then cover it with with glitter. If you wish you can outline it with black paint or you can leave it as it is. I tried both ways and they were nice.

These are the final looks. You choose which one you like most.
