Black With One stroke Flowers

Hello!

 
I have two designs to show you todays. Hope you will like them both.
 
Lets see the first one

 
 
 
I love one stroke decoration and I keep practising every time I can. Today I decided to practice on nails, because it is a bit difficult due to the uneven surface. I will just mention that one stroke flowers are made with acrylic paints and then sealed with Seche Vitte fast dry top coat....



P.S. Forgot to add that  I cannot draw with left hand and therefor I used transfer technique to place the flowers on my right hand..This is how the flowers look made on plastic bag

Two Colours French

Hello!

 
I was inspired by another nail technician to do this design.
 
 
After you apply base coat on the nails with detail brush make the smile line of the French.
 It is made by using flat brush and one stroke technique. With the two corners of the flat take two colours, one dark and one bright. Paint the tips. After it is completely dry, apply a glittery top coat on the tips only.
 
I reckon it is lovely French on its own, therefore you can leave the nails without any design.
Anyway if you decide you can paint some flowers, or whatever....
 
On the thumb and ring nails I have done white flower, and added some purple and black lines inside the petals. Outline the petals with black paint.
Make the gold stamen of the flower and some black wavy lines above.
 
Do not forget to seal it with topcoat. I always use Seche Vitte fast dry top coat.

Spring Flowers

Hello!

Where is the sun? I really miss it. What about you?
I will dedicate a post today to the spring again.
Flowers, flowers.....Everything is flowers and warm weather.



 
Some of them I was supposed to made with one stroke technique, but because I am still not good enough, so I have just used basic way of making them, but when the acrylic paints were still wet I added the second colour and mixed it.

Shellac Nails Art - Part I

Good morning all,

I have just popped in to show what I promised you in my past post - shellac nail art.
Today we will see just some of my first designs, which I hope you will like.
 
The first one from left to right is dark red colour applied in two coats for full coverage and cured in UV lamp for 2 minutes ( as usual and of course after top coat). Then pick up detail brush and white shellac colour and paint flower, outline it with black colour, then cure it. After cover with top coat and cure for another 2 minutes. Wipe of tacky layer and its done. Add some white dots or glitter with regular polish.
Second nail - apply base coat, cure for 10 seconds, apply white and any dark colour and with detail brush blend colours, then cure for 2 minutes, top coat and cure for 2 minutes. Wipe of the tacky layer and done.
Third and fourth nails - base coat (cure for 10 seconds),apply red colour, cure for 2 minutes, then second layer (always apply thin layers and remember  TIN-WIN)  cure for 2 minutes. Add 3 dots with shellac Cream Puff and then with detail brush blend colours in you desired position or in the way I did it. Cure for 2 minutes, apply top coat and cure for another 2 minutes. Wipe off tacky layer and you are done.

 Second picture - After base coat apply any colour you like as usual in two coats and cure. Then up and down draw thin lines of other colour and with detail brush blend colours. Then top coat and cure. Remove tacky layer and done...
 Third picture is pretty much the same except second nail from left to right. After the main colour (usual application) draw two diagonal lines in down corner and with thin brush blend, Then cure for 2 minutes and after top coat, cured for 2 minutes.
 On the next picture you can see some glitters added. To pick up the glitters you can use doting tool with damp end or any other tool or even thin/triangle brush, again slightly dipped in wipe of solution, Remember slightly damp just to be able to pick glitters from the pot.


 There is something different and interesting. For the first nail I applied three bright colours and then cured them for 2 minutes. After I applied any dark colour ( I used Fedora),then pick your detail brush and create swirls, lines or whatever you wish. 
 Middle nail - after curing the dark colour  drop some bright colours as you see on picture. With your doting tool make them look like half circles . Add little dots with dark shellac colour. Then finish it with top coat and cure. Remove tacky layer.
Animal prints design - apply base coat and cure. Apply Fedora and cure ( 2 layers). In upper and down corner apply Strawberry smoothie  and in the middle Tutie Frutti and then cure for 2 minutes. With doting tool place dots and make them look like animal prints, then cure again after finish with coat.
Lets see and the last designs for today. Apply any bright colour (after base coat).Then cure as usual. After that choose any darker colour and with thin brush make hearts. Cure for 2 minutes. Apply top coat and cure. You can add some glitter polish.
 
These are the designs for today. Hope you love them.
Have Fun....
