Sparkly French Tip

^ Creative title, eh? Pretty straight forward though!

The first thing I did was free hand the white tip using L.A Colours Art Deco in White. I applied a second coat so that it didn't look streaky.


Next, I added a coat of L.A Colours Art Deco in Ice Breaker.
(flash used to show sparklyness :3 )


And then another coat of Ice Breaker! 


And to finish, a clear coat on top. I've lost my top coat, some how.

Happy New Year!

Long time no blog beauties! Sorry about that, I kind of forgot that I had this blog... But! It is now 2012. Change is in the air and I've decided to actually blog about nail art and such :)

This is my third attempt of the night at a tape mani, and my first attempt at this design. The black line was done free hand with Sally Hansen Nail Art Pen in Black, the base colour is Deep Water by ACO and the sparkly polish is Day N' Night by ACO.

The next little thing I have to show you is an eye makeup look. This look was done using the NYX For Your Eyes Only Beautiful Green Eyes pallet. I have hazel eyes, but there is no pallet specifically for hazel eyes and this one had super pretty colours that I figured would still suit my eye. I used Annabelle Smoothliner in Brownie on my waterline and top lash line, and a regular old brown mascara on my top and lower lashes. (Doesn't it kind of look like a kiwi fruit?!)

I have a teeny tutorial for my next post :) Stay tuned!

Strawberries! ^.^

Hey lovelies! How have you all been? I'm still ill, but not nearly as gross as before! :)
This is my latest venture in nail art. I used LA Colors in Cranberry Red, LA Colors Art Deco in Yellow, and Pure Ice in Wild Thing as the main colours in this tutorial. So, let's get started!

Step 1: Apply a base coat, and two coats of your base colour (LA Colors CR.) 
 Step 2: Apply white (I used a Sally Hansen french tip polish.) polish in the shape of leaves. The white makes the green of the leaves require fewer coats. You can make the angles more intense if you wish, but I like them curved for a kind of cartoon shape.
 Step 3: Add your pipits! (LA Colors Art Deco in Yellow)
 Step 4: Apply the green of your leaves. My suggestion is to use thin coats and build up the colour so that your leaves don't become goopy and gross. (No one wants a goopy strawberry)
 Step 5: Add glitter, because you can! (Sinful Colours Opal Glitter)
 (Blurry so that the glitter is visible :3 )

Bonjour!

I'm Josephine, 16 years old, and I live in New Brunswick, Canada ^.^ I started this blog because a lot of the girls on PAA kept asking if I had one! Now that I made one, I can say yes! :) I won't be posting solely nail art though. I will be posting a plethora of girly things, such as fashion and make-up!
If you have any questions, feel free to ask me whatever you please!

To start off, this was my first attempt at nail art! Laugh at me if you want! I think it was alright as a first try! :)
