Tutorial: Easter Nails

Credit: mygnails.blogspot.com

I know you have probably seen something similar to this nail art but here are the steps on creating your own little chick in an egg for Easter.

Easter Nails...

Nail art is so fun for me, I get to use my imagination and create my own master piece.  It take a lot of patience like I have mentioned before but it is something everyone can do as long as you have steps to follow.

With Easter right around the corner, below is a cute design for this holiday...just follow the steps and just remember to have fun with it.  If it doesn't work out exactly as shown, make it your own design, let your imagination flow.

What I used to create this look:

• 1-2 Toothpicks
• Clear Bottom Coat: Wet n Wild 401A
• Orly Gumdrop
• L.A. Colors Art Decor-White
• N.Y.C.Taxi Yellow Creme-114A
• Nicole by O.P.I.-Razzle Dazzler-127
• MAC-Frost Fireball-A17
• Top Coat-Out The Door by INM

Remember, you can always substitute with your own brands and/or colors.

These are all the nail polishes that I used for this look.

You want to use a base coat to your nails before adding color. This will prevent your nails from becoming yellow.

After the base coat, I used this nail polish from Orly called Gumdrop.  Add to all fingernails.

Then you want to choose the finger where you want your main design to go. Place a yellow dot right about the middle of your fingernail maybe just a bit higher. For this I used N.Y.C. in Taxi Yellow Creme #114A.

You then want to add a half oval to the bottom of the yellow dot and a small half circle to the top. The bottom of the egg shell should be a little longer. For this I used L.A. Colors Art Decor in white.

Then grab your Toothpick.  This will be used for the next two steps...

Then I used Razzle Dazzler #127 from Nicole by O.P.I., to create two dots for the eyes right below the top shell of the egg.  Dip your toothpick just a enough to have a small dab at the tip.  Carefully make two dots right next to each other.

Then I used Mac-Frost Fireball-A17. Once again, grab the other side of your toothpick and dot a small dot below the eyes.

Use another toothpick and to create dots.

Let your imagination flow and create some squiggly lines, dots, whatever comes to mind. You don't have to use only white for your other designs. You can add some yellow or orange dots, or lines. This is my final product!

My other hand.

To give it that salon look, I used a top coat I found at Sally's Beauty Supply and will never, ever stop using it.  It is called, Out The Door by INM. Best top coat I have found!

Tutorial: Prabal Gurung Nails!

Prabal Gurung Nails

 

I love love my new Prabal Gurung high heels from Target!  The print on them is so amazing that it inspired a nail look.  Here are the steps I took to get my nails done.  Have Fun!!!

First you want to shape your nails so that they are pointy...just like the shoe.

Love pointy shoes!

  

You will need several colors to achieve this look.

Very important to add a base coat first.  This prevents your nails from becoming yellow.

I started out with this bright yellow from Jade called Suppresed Temptation.  You want a lighter shade as your base because darker colors will be easier to layer.

You will need a very thin brush for all your polishes.

I first added red and bright orange.  Make sure all lines are Horizontal.  Red=Haute Red by Orly & Orange=Exotic Exploits by Jade.

Then I added green...used OPI One Time Lime.

Remeber not all lines have to be perfect. 

Blue...Wet n Wild Save by the Blue

White

Purple

Black was the last one.

Top it with a top coat.  This is my favorite.  Out The Door by Inm

This is the finish look...

Not quite finish.  Use a precision tip Q-Tip to get the polish off the sides or edges.

Find my nails...

They are so girly!

 Hope you have fun!  It does take a lot of patience...let each layer dry before you add the next one or else your colors will mix.

The Closet Series...Pt. 3 Nail Polish Collection

Taking glitter off your nails is so hard but so fun to wear.

Nail polishes are like shoes...you can never have too many.  I have had a couple of people tell me my nail polish obsession is a bit much but in all honesty I don't.  As I am attempting to do designs/art on my nails I still find colors that I am missing from my collection. 

I was going to buy those acrylic nail polish racks for my wall but I don't think one rack would fit all my polishes so I actually had this book shelf (from Target) from back in the day when I was in college.  I purchased some baskets from the dollar section at Target and used those to store my polishes.

Once again I like color coordinating my things.  Each basket holds a color family;  keep all my glitter nail art polishes in one basket, pinks in another and so on.

For nail polish remover I use this acetone from my local nail supply store which is the same product used when going to do your nails at the salon.  I also love their cuticle oil and lotion...the best for manicures.

In the little red suit case (I believe it was a free gift from a makeup purchase from Estee Lauder) I keep all my nail care supplies: files, cotton, art supplies, and other things necessary for a manicure.

On the top of the shelf I just keep a few knick-nacks and my 3 drawer that keeps all my receipts.

My favorite polishes from my collection (couldn't just pick one)...

The hot pink is called Fancy Fuchsia from Orly and the darker color is Prey Tell from China Glaze.
