for the love of bows ^.^

konad scraper & stamper, konad plate m56, sally hansen "white on", wet n wild "black creme", opi "midnight blue glitter"

Hi my lovelies :)

I just wanted to share my nails for this week...i decided to do this thick french tip with these ultra cute bows. Products I used are listed above. First, start off with your base coat...let dry...create a french tip using your favorite white polish, make it pretty wide so that you'll have room for the design...let dry...this step is important because the stamp won't go on properly if it's still wet. Once dry place your black polish on the bow design i used the middle one on the konad m56 plate and scrape off the excess...transfer design on to the stamp...and line up the design with your white tip and in a quick rolling motion apply the bow...repeat on all nails...then using a thin brush apply a dark sparkly polish to deepen the design and add a little bit of glitz and glamour....let dry, and apply a top coat :)

wild leopard

I feel so funky :) One of my favourite nail designs to wear.  I feel a hint of animal print is always "in".  I used colours that you generally wouldn't acquaint with animal print which I think makes this look really fun and fashion forward.
Start off with a cream polish, use a purple to create a french tip, and let dry.  Working diagonally from right to left make little pink splotches. Then using a toothpick, line the pink with 3 little "c" shapes to make the leopard print.  Finish off with top coat.

zebra funk

"black creme"

"rasberry sorbetto"

 I love trying out new designs on my nails. I feel like it really finishes off any outfit, and there's just something really therapeutic in taking time to take care of yourself. I called the design Zebra funk :D

Zebra funk: first apply top coat and a coat of Borghese "rasberry sorbetto" to all nails except the "ring" fingers of both hands. The ring fingers paint black with wet'n'wild's "black creme".  Then using a cosmetic sponge, dip into the black polish, stipple on to the nail close to the cuticle and lighten as you work towards the free edge. Next apply pink polish on the cosmetic spong and lightly sponge over top of the black.  Let dry.  Final step using a toothpick or something fine add white dots close to the cuticle and space them out as you get near to the free edge.  On the ring fingers make zebra stipes using the white polish.  finish off with your favourite top coat.
