May Manicures

Hey everyone,
                       Welcome back :). Today, I have the manicures I wore during the month of  May to share with you all. This month I opted for more solid colours opposed to nail art as I found myself in more formal settings. However, the designs I did were very easy to achieve. Let’s get on to the manicures enjoy !

Bridal Nail Art Looks (Wedding Nail Art)

Hey everyone,
                       I hope you all are having a great weekend. Today, I have an exciting post to share and because of my interest in weddings, I've been yearning to do this for a while now . This blog post features both tradition and contemporary manicures suitable for brides on their wedding day. Don't get me wrong I think a bride should wear whatever colour/ design that complements their personal style however, these are just a few options I personally like and came up with.  Let’s get on to the manicures enjoy !



Manicure #1: Traditional French Manicure
This popular trend dates back to the 18th century and is noted for its clean and classic look. The manicure can simply be achieved by using a sheer polish as the base colour and swiping a brush dipped white polish across the tip of the nail.

Manicure #2: Something Blue

We all know the saying ' Something old, borrowed and blue' and with this look brides can cross something blue off that list. This manicure can be achieved using a light blue polish and a lace design stamp at the tip of the nail to really soften the look. 

Manicure #3: Glitter and Glam

For all those ladies who want something that will really stand out on their nails this is the perfect manicure. In addition, for persons with more simple gowns this can help to add something extra to their look. To achieve this manicure, use a pastel pink as the base and dab some sliver, glitter polish to the tip of the nail. 

Manicure #4: Nude Manicure

A nude nail polish can be an option instead of just going bare on your wedding day. This look really elongates fingers and gives a clean, natural appearance. Some options are as follows in the photos.

Sally Hansen- Sheer Me Now

Essie- Topless and Barefoot

Manicure #5: Sheer Wash of Colour

For the ladies who are not interested in wearing nail polish, one coat of a sheer polish will to the trick to add some colour to your look. 

F21- Pink Chiffon

Camouflage (Camo) Nail Art Tutorial

Hey everyone,
                       I hope you all are having an amazing week. Today I have an easy camouflage inspired tutorial to share. This design requires no additional nail art tools due to the fact we use the nail polish brush to create the look. Also, be sure to start off with a base coat to protect your natural nails. Let’s get on to the tutorial!



Step one: Paint all nails in a dark green shade.

Step two: Next, create random shapes using your nail polish brush and a medium brown colour all across nail.

Step three: Thirdly, create random shapes using a nail polish brush and a medium green colour all across the nail. (Overlap the shades)

Step four: Repeat step three using a dark brown nail polish.

Step five: Clean up around your nails to remove any polish from the skin and add your preferred top coat to smooth out design and add shine.
