Beautiful nails, as a symbol of status, can show one’s good manners and temperament. Nail art, also known as nail design, refers to the process in which one’s nails are sterilized, cleaned, cared, maintained, reshaped and eventually beautified according to one’s requirements; including the shape of one’s hands, nails, skin and the color of clothing. Nail art boasts diverse characteristics.

Bows and Hearts

Hello!

Typically design with bows and hearts for this period of the year. I wa s thinking today what to suggest to my client and decided no to ask her straight if she wanted something in St Valentines spirit. Just showed her what samples  I have done recently. But I believe she got my purpose anyway.
 
 This are her natural nails polished with Essie nail polish - lovely pinkish colour "Peach Daiquiri"72 and Essie nude colour "Mademoisette"13. Both applied in two coats. Hand made cute bow on the ring nails and thumb. Finished with UV activated regular top coat from Seche Vitte.

There are the samples

Tart Deco from Essie

Hello!

Winter is coming, as well as Christmas, but somehow I still like painting may nails with bright summer colours.
 
Two weeks ago I bought some new shades from Essie. One of them is this nice peach colour Tart Deco 74.
 
Essie has nice wide brush with soft bristles, really comfortable to work with. Colour has been applied in two coats and not sealed with top coat, except the accent nail, which I decorated using one stroke technique.

Peach Daiquiri

Peach daiquiri is one of the new nail polishes I have bought last week. It was shown design with it in my last post, but in that one you will see what I created on my own natural nails. It is simple, quick and easy to be done.

Created during first week of November

Good morning all!

 
Really quickly will show you I have done these days. The nails you will see are with gel overlay. For the first set I have used the amazing nail polish from Essie Peach daiquiri 72 & Eternal optimist 23 
 
 
On the nails coated with Eternal optimist I drew simple flowers. The following picture shows how they were before, just forgot to take a pic before removing the nail polish.
 

 
 
There is something here that I am not really got at and this is the oval shape. Lady was offered to be done gold foil ornament on the black base.  Nothing so special, just something she never had. Hope next to be not sho short with me so I can make better design for her. For the next two sets I have used shellac gel polish.
 
 Wow, there is the amazing red coloured nails with her favourite flowers for my client yesterday, made by one stroke technique.
 Here are the nails made for her last time :)

Essie Eternal Optimist - Review

The following post is a polish review. Its about Essie Eternal Optimist  - a nice ash from roses colour.

As you all know Essie has a wide brush, sometimes not so comfortable to work with. I could say its long lasting colour with shine.

 
Usually I apply fast dry top coat so it dries faster.

Sittin' Pretty

Good Morning All!

 
My post today will be a review of the last collection I showed you _ Essie.
The other day you saw a design with Serial Shopper ( neon orange). Today will be about neon purple. I didn't apply a white base, because it dries slowly. Purple colour on its own is lovely too.
 
 
 


 
 

 Polish has been applied in two coats, and as I said above without white base prior. Honestly I don't like my nails even without little decoration, therefore I drew something simple.

Finished with Seche Vitte top coat.
Hope you like that colour as much as I do :)

Glow Get 'em!

Wow, they are lovely, awesome neon colours.

To make them pop, apply one coat of blanc (white colour) before applying your neon shade.

Neon Orange & White

There is me again with white French, but this time on accent nail is neon orange from Essie 304 Serial Shopper  new neon collection "Glow get 'em!"

Placing that yellow flower (hand painted) on orange looks better than I expected. Then added swirls and dots.

Ombre Effect

Hi!

 
The second design for today is easy but elegant.
 
Over white base, with a sponge I made hombre gradient. For two of the nails I have chosen to be made French.
 

 
I have used two nail polishes , both blue but in different shades - Essie 94 Lapiz Of Luxury  and  L'Oreal 611 Skyfitsheaven.



On the French ones I outlined with black paint petals of flowers and added some swirls and rhinestones. Then covered my mani with fast dry Seche Vitte top coat, to prolonged it

Hello Kitty

Hello!

Today will show you again a design made with water transfer decals and some hand work.
 
But lets see first the design
 
As you see this is the lovely Hello Kitty, loved by all little girls.
I think in pink - this is the name of OPI Nail Lacquer, I used, together with ESSIE Lovie Dovie 20. Both applied in two coats for full coverage. Then I added some silver shimmery polish  in-between the both polishes. Then I stuck those kittens, some rhinestones and black dots.
Lovie Dovie Essie & I think in pink OPI
 
 
 



Hope you like my little kittens....
