Winter Snowflakes

Simple snowflakes over bare nails and a bit of Sally Hansen shimmer to top it.

After a couple of days, I added some french tips.  

Halloween Spiders

Halloween week and time for a creep mani.  Black French tip with spiders and webs.  Black rhinestones for the little spider bodies.

Base: Essie Limo-Scene
Tips: Sally Hansen Black Out

Black Lace

My mum requested a black lace mani for her Halloween party.  I used Konad m57 plate and Konad Special Polish in black to stamp over her gel manicure.

Sunny French Tips

Warm weather yellow for some time at the shore. Saw this on Pinterest by CoolNailsArt.

Wispy Lace

Love this Konad image design! It is so soft and delicate. Careful, it liked to smear a bit with top coat, even using the Konad Special Top Coat. And it is so thin and delicate, it sometimes didn't print the every little detail in the lace netting. But its worth the careful effort.

Base: China Glaze Innocence

Konad Black Special Polish

Easter Nails

Easter egg colors of course. I picked all my pastel, springy, Easter-y colors for my eggy nails.  A spring flower stamp and pastel rhinestones in the center of each flower finished it off.

 After the first day, I decided flowers on every nail was necessary. I liked that much better. 

St. Patty's Spirit

After yesterday's quick removal of the green mani, I opted for something more simple with less of the Mint Sprint to overpower.

NK Swan for the French tip.
Konad plate m64
Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Mint Sprint for stamping.

Ocean Blue French Tips

This blue is more like a blue green and very metallic-ish.  I didn't love it.

Simple Lace

Simple, yet one of my favorites that I do quite often.   I love that it goes with everything.

Konad Special Polish Black for the lace print

Sweater Stripes

This matched a gray, black, and cream striped cardigan I was wearing that weekend. Freehand striping with the regular polish brush and a narrow striping brush for the white strip.


Base is China Glaze Thistle
Grey is Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Gone Grey
Black is Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Black Out
White is Charlotte Russe 2-way striper brush and pen (love this)

 

Konad lace and dotting tool dots. I accidentally used the Konad white blending polish instead of the Konad white STAMPING polish, so my white lace is not showing. I'll try again with the correct polish.

Freehand geometrics

Holiday Snowflakes

Gold snowflakes stamped with Orly Luxe.

Last minute quick Christmas party.
