Hello lovelies,

 

I have a last design that I've prepared for Halloween and despite posting it a bit late I think you still might enjoy it ;)

 

Here I've opted for a dark, vampy base with stamped spider and nets. It's a simple look to create and it's not too extravagant. Let's have a look at the final design and how to recreate it!

How to create this look:

 

Step 1 - start with clean and dry nails and apply a coat of your favourite base coat. I'm using OPI Natural Nail base coat.

 

Step 2 - paint the nails with two coats of A England In Robe And Crown and let dry for few minutes.

 

Step 3 - stamp the spiders in the middle of the nail and spider web in a half-moon style. I've used Pueen Halloween Party 01* stamping plate, A England Excalibur RENAISSANCE and Pueen HD Chunky clear stamper*. The clear stamper really helps with an accurate placement of the stamp.

 

Step 4 - seal the design with your favourite top coat. In this case I've used Revon Gel Envy Diamond top coat.

Pueen has sent me this Halloween Party 01* stamping plate full of Halloween designs. Some cover full nail, some only a portion so it has a good selection. I love the simplicity of just having the spider web half moons and spider accent nails and also how gorgeous is the subtle holo effect that peaks out of that sexy vampy polish?! I loved wearing these nails so much! What do you think?

 

Have a lovely day! Lucie x

Hello lovelies,

 

Another month has passed since the last Paint All The Nails nail art challenge (we did animal print nails) and this month's new theme is NEONS! I was trying to get into the festival mood (two festivals ahead of me - yay!) and the current Models Own Soft Pop collection was perfect for it. I opted for a subtle neon gradient and bold stamping. Let's have a look..

I started with two coats of Models Own Cosy Posy, a soft neon green. Then I've used a makeup sponge and sponged Lemon Popsicle on the tips to create a gradient. Once that was done and dry, I've decided to stamp some bright design over it. I reached for the Bundle Monster Festival plates BM-S304 and BM-S305 and Bundle Monster Electric Pink stamping polish. All three colours nicely contrasted and the result was this bright and playful festival mani!

 

And since they colours are neon they glow beautifully under UV light!

So what do you think? Too crazy to wear or a manicure worthy of a nail blogger? ;) I quite liked it even though I felt a bit juvenile :D

 

I will be going on holiday soon so I'm preparing a guest post line up for you, you can look forward to some cool nail art manis from my fellow nail bloggers. Stay tuned and have a lovely day! Lucie x
