Neon feather nail art

Now that I have a blacklight I just had to play around with stuff I already own.

 

I started by painting a not so intriguing feather nail art design using the following polishes:

- China Glaze Liquid Leather (background)

- Models Own Luis Lemon

- Models Own Toxic Apple

- Models Own Bubblegum

- Orly Baked Tropical Pop

- Orly Baked Ablaze

There really is no point in making it too detailed as the lamp doesnt give a complete clear image.

For the ring finger and pinky I used my neon glitters.

 

Are you ready for the blacklight picture?

 

 

 

 The blacklight makes it even more fun to use neon products.

I'm already loving the brights but when it starts to glow...

"I feel like a kid in a fairy world" :D

 

Day 318) Nail art rainbow feather

Ever since I saw this nail art:

I've been wanting to do something simular.

Mine didn't turn out as good as the one above but I'm still very happy with the outcome...
Black and some bling are the ingredients for a beautiful mani IMAO.

Day 166) Gradient with holographic designs (elegant nails)

Hi lovelies,

In addition to the black&white and ombre/gradient nails of the past days I came up with today's nail art.
I really like this nail art and keep looking at it; it's elegant, feminine and a little mysterious because of the holo.
Interested?!
There is a short step-by-step:

Step 1: Make a gradient 
I chose for greys and white
Material:

*Essence Vintage District - 04 Get arty
*Catrice Natural Nail Lacquer
  Limited Edition NEONaturals -
  C05 Have A Good Day
*ICI Paris XL - Only You - White French
*Sponge









You can apply a white polish first to get opacity at once, but I don't think this is really necessary.
Put the sponge onto your nail to estimate the size of your nails; you do want all 3 of the colors on your nail and not just 2 or even empty spaces.
Now apply, with the size of your nails in mind, the 3 nail polishes onto the sponge.
The sponge might absorb some nail polish in the beginning, so keep this in mind while applying and repeat if you don't think it's enough.

Now, place the sponge onto your nail (white on the tip) and roll it over the surface of the nail (horizontal).
At least a few times so that the colors nicely blend.
Repeat this step for the other nails. Depending on the absorption of the sponge you'll have to apply the 3 nail polishes again. Not happy with the opacity? Sponge the nails again.

As you can see, you'll have some cleaning to do.

Putting tape on fingers and cuticles can help!

After cleaning I applied a topcoat.

Step 2: Make designs of your choice on the gradiënt nails (use a popping color like red, purple)

Material:



*Catrice Ultimate Nail Lacquer - 39 Black To The Routes
*China Glaze Holographic - 1171 Infra Red 81159
*Striper brush

I chose to do more elegant designs: flower, butterfly, heart, bow and feather.
