Plaid nails anyone? :)
This was last week when I decided to cut my nails down really short because a few of them broke at the gym. I use baby weights at the gym but still, I wasn’t so careful! Boo!
Now, tell me if this is just me but I really think that certain nail designs look way better with the right nail length. For example, I tend to go for brighter, lighter nail colors when my nails are short. Nude colors are my favorit. They make my nails look so chic. When my nails grow longer, they inspire me to go with much more complicated and experimental designs or at least darker polish colors.
Anyways, this was no exception, I painted my nails with a light, sheer pink coral color called Grapefruit Glimmer from Revlon. This polish has some really fine glitters which give off the perfect shimmering effect. Then, I stamped on some plaid designs using Konad plate m60 and Konad special stamping polish in white. I think this design looks lovely on short nails, what do you think?
Hope you like it!
DIY feather nails
1. Paint all nails with gold base color (here I used Sally Hansen’s Golden-I)
2. Choose a deeper/darker color for stamping. I’m using deep plum and dark green. The jewel tone colors really bring out the gold. I used Cheeky stamping plate D. If you want to learn more about the plate, watch this video where I give my first impression on the product.
3. Top coat and enjoy!
The adipose tissue manicure - courtesy of Breast Cancer awareness month!
Since adipose tissue is one of the components that make up our breasts. For the sake of raising awareness, maybe we should learn a little something about it and wear it on our nails ;-) My job is to make it fun for you guys so click away on the links I inserted in this post!
Mint and fuchsia, don’t they make a gorgeous combination? I think the mint here is more tiffany blue but they look great together regardless! Hope you like it!
Put a bow on it…
Polishes used:
- Base coat:Sally Hansen Triple Strong Nail Fortifier
- 2 coats of Sinfulcolors professional in ‘Rise and shine’ #940
- Stamp image from Konad plate # m56. The image is meant to be stamped at the tips of each nail but I used it a little but differently to create even more looks from each plate. If you’re into nail stamping, I hope this inspire you to “stretch” your image plates.
- Silver glitter added to the center of each bow
- Top coat: Seche Vite dry fast top coat
Hope you have a great weekend.
