Showing posts with label foil

Hi everybody, I'm back after a short break!

I'd like to show you a very interesting manicure inspired by amazing Robin Moses. Here you can check out the original YT video :)

I followed every step in the video. Firstly I've painted tips unevenly with Color Club Black. I let it dry and applied thin strokes of Best Glue Ever instead of classic foil glue as Robin gave it such great recommendation! I must say it's really great! It didn't peel on my natural nails and it was extra sticky. After glue dried (it becomes clear), I've cut a piece of Mylar foil and started to stick it to the glued parts of the nail. I've used fuchsia and dark blue foil (can't remember the names, they are not in the packaging). After these steps I got this:
 

(Artificial light)

The next step was to paint pink and light ble strokes over the nail....it wasn't good :-/ My experience with free hand nail art is zero and my brushes are rubbish. The result is not perfect but I still liked this mani very much! I will have to practice a lot :) I've topcoated the whole nail with Seche Vite and didn't experienced any foil cracking. I've worn this mani 5 days!

So what do you think? Should I experiment more with foils?

Oh and don't forget to check Robin's blog and YT channel, she's done some amazing nailart!

Another Accessorize polish I have is Pink Spice which is very, very close to a MAC Bad Fairy. I will make a comparison in the future...I say in the future because I had some stresfull time and few of my nails broke so I had to cut all ot them :( Some time without new swatches then :(

Pink Spice - duochrome pink changing to orange. As well as Bad Fairy, this is very hard to describe colour but it's exceptionally beautiful! It applied really nicely and didn't chip in first two days. Removal was a little more difficult as always with the foil-like colours but with the foil method it was not that big pain. Brush is normally big, nice to work with. i have two coats in the pictures and you can see that it was totally enough :)
