31DC Day 7 Black And White

Black and White skittle

My Black and White nails, I couldn’t resist another skittle for this! 😀

The Polishes I used are,

  • China Glaze White on White
  • Elegant Touch French Manicure White
  • Sally Hansen Pure Midnight
  • Filthy Gorgeous Twilight
  • L’Oreal Confettis
  • Konad SP Black

My first step was to paint all my nails with two coats of White on White.

For my thumb I used Twilight and White on White. Starting with a simple french tip, (I used a guide) I added the first dots with a medium dotting tool, then with a thin brush I filled in the gaps, then added the second dots with a small sized dotting tool.

For my index finger over the White on White I used Konad Black with Suki 06 XL plate from Moyou.

On my middle finger I used French Manicure White, Pure Midnight and Twilight for the sponged gradient, it took three layers before it was ‘gradienty’ enough then I added the Confettis, I found the brush for the glitter topcoat was rather scratchy, I don’t know if it was bits of glitter in the brush or the brush itself, it scraped some of my gradient 😦

For the water marble I used French Manicure White and Twilight. Both of these polishes worked really well, they even spread over the water at the same rate! 😀

Finally for my little finger I used some more Twilight and a medium dotting tool!

Then when it was dry I applied my topcoat and had a cup of tea!

31DC2014 – Day 3 Yellow

Maybelline Electric Yellow and China Glaze White On White

Here are my yellow nails for day 3 of the 31DC2014 challenge.

for this I started with three coats of Electric Yellow from Maybelline Color Show, then I used White On White from China Glaze for the freehand V shaped french tips, then I added the dots with a medium sized dotting tool!

This was a really quick and easy design to do (which I’m really glad about, I probably should have thought through doing two challenges at the same time!)

GOT Polish Challenge – Yellow (Or My Fried Egg Nails)

Got Polish Challenge Yellow nail Art

Fried egg nails

Here are my yellow nails for the GOT Polish Challenge! I really don’t like yellow nail polish so this was actually quite difficult for me to come up with anything interesting, I was just staring at the bottles of polish waiting for some kind of inspiration.

I only have 3 bottles of yellow nail polish and one of those is new, so my yellow choices where rather limited, eventually I chose this!

This is a polish I have had for a while, it came free with some cleaning stuff oO (I’m not going to start on gender stereotyping… But Yay for free nail polish lol)

Fried eggs

I don’t like fried eggs, and I don’t like yellow nail polish so it’s a match made in heaven (or hell depending on how you look at it)

I applied two coats of not marigold yellow then added the egg whites with China Glaze White on White and a large dotting tool, then for the yokes, some more Not Marigold and a medium sized dotting tool!
