Day 329) Nail art icicles

Still in the frosty mood :D
I guess I'm more of a winter than a fall person.
Today icicle nails.


I've started with a dark blue background Catrice Ultimate Nail Lacquer 350 Hip Queens Wear Blue Jeans!
Then I've used a striper brush to paint the letters Bourjois 06 Adore-bleu and colored it in with OPI liquid sand mini Kiss me at midnight
After this I've used the same brush to paint the icicles Claire's 60553 White
I felt it was still missing something so I ended with a little sparkle around the cuticles NYC 003 Disco Inferno

Day 315) Elegant half moon mani

I my opinion it was time for a simple and elegant nail art again.
This nail art is great for winter and coming holidays.

First a swatch of my base color:

Color Club In true fashion - First looks

 

This is one of the most prettiest dark teal colors that I've ever seen.

In the bottle the color looks darkblue with a touch of purple and green.

On the nails the color is so dark (blue) that it almost looks black, but there is a beautiful teal shimmer that lightens the total look.

Almost opaque in 1 coat.

Perfect color for fall and winter.

 

For the half moon mani I used the following:

* OPI Mariah Carey Holiday 2013 Collection mini pack liquid sand - It's frosty outside (silver glitter liquid sand)

* Silver beads

* Rhinestones

As inspiration for this nail art I've used a necklace



 



I think this nail art is also great for winter/Christmas because you could see some icicles  in it as well.

Day 301) Wild and edgy nails

With today's nail art I didn't really have a goal.
That is for the design.
I did have a goal color wise.
I just needed to do a nail art with my favourite color combo: black with holo glitter.
And the design I ended up with was wild and edgy (I think).
I could have called it icicles or stalactites/stalagmites but that sounds less hot right ;-D

Polishes used:
- Catrice Ultimate Nail Lacquer 39 Black To The Routes
- Flormar P046 (holo glitter)
