I recently acquired these new Nail Emoji bottles from Color Club and they look so nice! I’ve yet to try all of them, but the bright orange over the darker orange combines really well. The emojis themselves are a little large and the polish is thicker (expected, for the larger glitters to stick) but the payoff is great.
I’d seen this kind of gradient before and hadn’t tried it myself. It’s so easy to make yet it takes a bit for the coats to fully dry before using the tiny, annoying 2mm tape that is sticky all over!
The contrast between the colors is fabulous and the effect is a little confusing until you look a little closer.
And of course… it’s always a little better if you add a little holo!
Well, well well.. look who’s back on my nails…
(and not the last time I’ll ever have him either!)
I’ve had this picture on my desktop ready to make the design for a while now and I finally got down to try and make it.
David Bowie has been a source of inspiration for most of this year, and it seemed fitting to do one of his suits on my nails because his first grandson was born on July 10th!
Congratulations to his son Duncan Jones and to Bowie himself!
When I was little, I used to watch “I dream of Jeannie” all the time, but it is only until now that I’ve had the pleasure of binging the entire show (I’m on season 3 right now). I absolutely loved the character and loved the chemistry between Tony and Jeannie.
I do agree with Larry Hagman (Major Anthony Nelson), Barbara Eden (Jeannie) and Bill Daily (Major Roger Healey) that marrying Tony and Jeannie killed the series but I still enjoy it very dearly. It is why I had to recreate some of the intro images on my nails.
Lovely series!
It all started like this:
And then I remembered I saw a design with two colors and a black line striking through. The only difference is that the colors where not gradiented, they were separated by the black line itself, so I decided to try this out!
YAY! Today is my birthday and of course I had to have special nails for today.
I wanted to have something summer themed and what a better summer fruit than watermelon slices? This design is so easy to do but due to the very curved shape of my nails, the green/white lines aren’t as visible so I had to make them thicker. Still, it looks very “summer-y” and I like it very much 🙂
Happy Birthday to Meeee!
