Rainbow Flower Nail Designs

Tutorial: Rainbow nails
Here are the polishes I used:
Ulta3 lily white, spring blossom, spring fling
China Glaze Light as air, Re-fresh mint
L.A. Colors Star light

step one Apply one coat of white polish as a base colour. Wait for the polish to dry before moving on.

I don’t own any make up sponges so I just cut up a piece of normal kitchen paper towel and used it instead.

step two Paint a line of each of the polishes you’re going to sponge on to the paper towel. The thickness of the lines depend on the length of your nail and the number of colours you want to fit onto your nail, so there’s a bit of trial and error involved. I then used the toothpick to quickly run it between each line of the polishes to prevent it from spilling into each other.

step three Sponge on one coat on to your nail then wait for it to dry before doing it a second time. This is what it looks like after sponging two layers on to the nail. It looks super messy (and it’s a lot messier here than in my previous post) but the next step fixes it all icon smile Rainbow Flower Nail Designs

step four Just look at what a coat of glitter can do! icon biggrin Rainbow Flower Nail Designs It’s so good at hiding imperfections.

And the final result~Yeah errr, my top coat kind of streaked icon sad Rainbow Flower Nail Designs

I hope you found this tutorial useful! Rainbow nails are definitely not hard to do but they are a little time consuming.

Neon Nail Design Ideas

Neon nail polish shades are among the hottest colors to wear. If you already experiment with your nail polish, neon colors will be an easy transition, and if you usually play it safe, you can still rock these ultra bright colors.

NEON SEQUIN NAILS AND MORE

To start off, it is best to practice on something other than your nails at first until you learn a few easy techniques. You can use fake nails or even paper to start off with and included is a practice sheet at the back of the instruction guide. Before applying the base polish and using the pen tips, shake the bottle well. Doing so will ensure that the polish is mixed properly and is the right consistency. After you have used a pen, you should thoroughly clean the pen tip to ensure it works well for you the next time you use it. To ensure full coverage of nails and to increase the brightness of some colors, we suggest you apply a second layer of base polish. Make sure the base coats have completely dried before starting your designs. In more intricate designs where swirls are used, this technique must be done before the polish dries. As you can see by the many samples displayed in the enclosed instruction guide, designs range from very simple to very intricate. Designs as simple as using dots to create beautiful little shapes to more intricate swirls and patterns forming exotic flowers and colorful works of art.

Neon Nail Polish like Rihanna!

Brighten Up your World with Neon Nail Polish like Rihanna!

I remember how popular neon nails were in the ‘80s and now, like so many fashion and beauty trends, they’ve come back for an encore presentation! Edgy, funky celebs like Rihanna aren’t afraid to show off this bold summer nail polish trend - and you shouldn’t be, either! With dark polish colors having taken hold for the past few months, it’s great to have shiny, happy, bright nail lacquers to pair with our warm weather fashions. Here are a few nail polish tips to get you started on wearing this latest nail polish trend:

Create a burst design by starting at one corner of the nail and moving outward in quick, even strokes. This looks best when the base nail color is lighter than the neon nail polish.

Swing Baby with comp

I love foils and I love coppery bronze browns, golds and champagne colours so I knew I would at least like Swing Baby from the Vintage Vixen collection and I did. I thought it would be lighter than it is and it proved to be browner than I expected.

It reminded me of the BB Couture's I swatched a couple of months ago so I did a comparison:

1. BB Couture Dancing Queen, 2. ChG Swing Baby, 3. BB Couture Union Square, 4. BB Couture Blind love

Swing Baby is quite like Union Square but Union Square is darker and Swing Baby is more sparkly.

The other day I wrote an extensive post on the gorgeous lacquer I got from Andrea, the talented proprietor of Evil Shades Cosmetics, named Rainbow in the Dark. As usual, I'm well prepared - already some time back I made a little comparison wheel, which I now intend to show you!

These are my space polishes:

Lumene Natural Code Cosmic Girl, Icing Blackout, Evil Shades Rainbow in the Dark.

China Glaze Cosmic, Funky Fingers Moonwalk, NYX Girls Frizz Spots.

Please click to enlarge the following pictures!

1. Lumene Cosmic Girl
2. Icing Blackout
3. Evil Shades Rainbow in the Dark
4. China Glaze Cosmic
5. Funky Fingers Moonwalk
6. NYX Girls Frizz Spots

And from another angle.

As you can see, the China Glaze is really gritty, which is something that bothers me. The Funky Fingers isn't much better. And obviously, the NYX Girls is playing in its own division, though I still think of it as space in a bottle. Just imagine combining it with any of the other ones for majestic space results!

I have to say though, due to the smoothness, the Icing and Evil Shades polishes are my favourites out of this bunch. No extra work with a trillion coats of topcoat, and they're both subtle in their expression, just hinting the glitz, just sparkling up in special moments.

I wore Blackout for an entire three day period this spring, when I was away for a party conference, and I managed to make it wear pretty well until I did a touch up the last night... I highly enjoyed it though, but unfortunately it never made it onto the blog since I was in no time or position to take other than blurry iPhone pictures. These polishes are basic enough to wear for more than a night without being tiresome, yet sparkly enough to avoid boredom. Pure love.

And no, I do not have Eyeko's Cosmic polish. Sadly!

Damn it scares me, but also: damn it's intriguing!
