Showing posts with label nail art

Hello lovelies!

Finally it's weekend again and I have a bit more time to do swatches and post writing. I want to show you this double ruffian manicure and and also WingDust Cray On You polish.

Here's how I did this manicure:

  1. I've painted on two coats of WingDust Cray On You and let it dry
  2. I've used A England Excalibur (silver) and painted most of the nail leaving a gap between cuticle and Excalibur polish so a stripe of WingDust polish shows.
  3. I've used A England Camelot and repeated the step 2. only leaving bigger gap
  4. I've topcoated the whole manicure with Seche Vite.

WingDust Cray On You - dark grey base with blue shimmer and magenta and lavender glitter. This is a very interesting shade, I liked it a lot on me. It applied well but it is on the sheer side so I needed to apply three coats for full opacity. Next time I will use just one coat over black to achieve this result. The drying time was ok considering the three coats. Removal is a bit tricky because of the glitter so I soaked my nails for two minutes with cotton ball and nail polish remover.

Hello lovelies,

I'm still loving the OPI Euro Centrale colours (reviewed here) and I have done a simple bejewelled manicure using Viva La Nails rhinestones. The base colour is OPI You’re Such a BudaPest and I have used topcoat to attach the rhinestones.

A while ago, I got a selection of Viva La Nails products. I've already tested the brushes and they are good for detailed nail art, I've done a simple lace with them. I plan to do a feather nail art as well as it's one of those things I wanted to try for ages! The various rhinestones including the ones from the manicure above can be purchased directly here

What do you think of the accent finger? Would you wear it?
