Nail art inspired by Clothes

Happy Sunday friends! Hope you all are having a great weekend. I had a good family time this weekend along with GudiPadwa celebrations. So I am all set and charged for next week :)

Coming to today's post, I have nail art inspired by my chunni aka dupatta. I loved the way this design turned out.

                                      

I felt the design was simple yet fashionable. Polishes used were Sinful colors Black on Black, OPI MVIB and Models own Malibu Pink.

These cute flowers were made using a dotting tool and chevron pattern using Moyou Fashionista stamping plate.

The saga of Konad Black smearing on me continues. I have finally ordered a new black stamping polish, looking forward for smear free black stamping now :)

Let me know if you liked the design.

Geometric nails and Angel Nail Studio Vinyls review

Hi Friends! How have you all been? I am doing good and excited to do this post. Today I am going to review Nail Vinyls from Angel nail studio. These vinyls are made by Indian nail artist and my buddy Veeral Hanj. Check out her ig profile here. This post is special to me as this is the first time an Indian nail artist has come up with her own vinyls. I was so keen on buying vinyls for so long now but never found anything in Indian market. Now I no longer need to have someone get it for me from abroad.

Veeral has come up with a variety of vinyls and is working on her website which will have specifics of these items. From her numerous designs I chose Medium Chevrons, Medium Straights and Mermaid Scale pattern. Each vinyl sheet costs Rs200, all these sheets were purchased by me. Veeral did send me few samples prior to her vinyl set release.

Floral Newspaper print nails

Hey buddies! How are you all doing? Hope you had a lovely weekend.

Last week's theme for 'Nail that technique' challenge was Newspaper print. I was excited for this theme but when I actually attempted to do it, I struggled getting a good newspaper print on my nails. My nail buddies suggested not to use topcoat(matte topcoat can be used) and attempt for newspaper print and it was a success.

I used Revlon Matte and Shiny Emerald Suede as base and did the newspaper print over it. I used floral decals and placed them randomly. Then added top coat to seal the design. I loved this design and received lot of compliments too.  This nail art was inspired by Vintage Newspaper print nails by my nail buddy Setu.

Scaled Gradient for Nail that technique challenge

Hi friends! How are you all doing? I had a busy weekend; too many things to catch up with.

Last week's theme for 'Nail that technique' challenge was Scaled gradient. Boy this technique gave me hard time. I tried doing it atleast thrice and failed each time. I din't wanna give up and kept looking at SimplyNailogical youtube videos to get a hang of it . Finally I gave a fourth try and I am happy I did it. I still need to work hard on my clean up part. Hope some day I will get to it perfectly.

I used Models own Polish for Tans Flip Flop and Street wear Lady Blue Eyes for the gradient.

Floral nails inspired by mug

Hello All! Today's post is again another one which I did few weeks back but couldn't post. Gosh I have so many posts to do. I am already running behind the schedule. Does this happen with you all too? I seriously need to get into habit of being regular in doing posts. I guess Instagram has made me all the more lazy :)

This floral mani is inspired by mug image I saw on Google. I used Sally Hansen Pacific Blue as the base and did rest of the design using acrylic paints. I have seen that whenever I use acrylic paints towards tips and cuticles it chips off very soon. Any tips on how to fix this?
