#68 August Random Nail Art Challenge: Line Art

I'm extremely late with this but here are my line art nails!

#66 Random Nail Art Challenge August: Orange

Yes,, I am doing two challenges again this month! 

Random Nail Art Challenge: May - Completed!

Secretly I'm really proud of myself for completing this challenge! And almost completing the other challenge as well! (expect the final posts on those tonight!)

When I first started the two challenges I was already thinking that I could not handle two challenges at a time, that I would be painting my nails one theme and right after removing the nail art I made just to start with another theme. Fortunately that did not happen! I had a chance to enjoy all the nail arts I made this month! And I hope you liked them too :)

For Instagram I made a collage of all the nail art I made for this challenge! I'd thought I share them here too! 

 

When I look at all the nail art, I like the sunflowers and the paisley the most, but that does not mean I don't like the others ;) I like them all!

Let's hope the challenges for June are as fun! 

Have fun painting and creating

May Nail Art Challenge: Triangles & Fashion

What a beautiful day today, I've spent the whole day outside, first painting my nails and after that I did nothing but sitting in the sun. Now I am sitting inside again because clouds are covering the sun.. 

Today I've combined two challenges into one nail art. 'Triangles' form the random nail art challenge and 'Fashion' from the may nail art challenge. I also used the dry brush/distressed technique again for this nail art. I think this technique adds depth in the nail art when you add something ontop off the distressed look.

For the fasion part I made the distressed look, and for the triangles part I made... Circles! :D Bad joke... of course I made triangles ;)

 

For this nail art I used for the base 'Blindfold me blue' by Rimmel London and used 'Breakfast in bed' by Rimmel London and 'Eletrix blue' by Catrice for the dry brush effect. The black triangles are made with acrylic paint. 

Next: Dinosaurs and Yin&Yang!

May Nail Art Challenge: Tattoo

A day late, but here is my 'tattoo' nail art for the Random Nail Art May Challenge!
I didn't want to take my previous nail art off. I like the aztec nails too much ;)

But I didn't want to stop with the challenges. So I eventually removed the aztec nail art for this simple but cute nail art.

The polishes I used for this nail art are 'My APPricot' and 'Kitch me if you can' Both by Catrice. And the black is acrylic paint.

I first applied two coats of the 'My APPricot' and when that was dry I added one coat of the glitter 'Kitch me if you can' And when that coat was dry, i went over it again with the 'My APPricot'. To make the glitter a bit less shimmery.

And I know what you are thinking, this has nothing to do with any tattoo whatsoever. But for me it does
Ever since we had to put our oldest dog to sleep I wanted to have a paw tattoo on my wrist. She was a beautiful and super sweet dog. But I haven't had the courage to go get it done. But I will!  

Next up: Fashion & Triangles!

May Nail Art Challenge: Sunset

Another challenge from the May nail art challenge. This time the theme was sunset. We're halfway into the month and I'm still keeping up with both of the challenges! ;)

For this nail at I was inspired by a picture my brother has made. And this is the picture that inspired me:











When I saw the challenge I immediatley knew I wanted to recreate a picture of my brother. So this is what I made on my own nails:

 

I'm kinda sad that the roe almost dissapears in the light that reflects on my nails, and I just could not find a better pose to fix that :(

The polishes I used for this nail art are #809 from Hema and on top of that I sponged 'Bloody Mary to Go' 'Orange-Utan' and 'Birdy Reloaded' all by Catrice.

I always have a hard time cleaning up my cuticles when I use a red for sponging (as you can see my cuticles are still kinda red) I wanted to try out a different technique to clean my cuticles up, but I totally forgot about that plan when I was sponging the colours on! Silly me ;)

I hope you like this nail art, plenty more to come this month! 

Have fun painting and creating

#51 May Nail Art Challenge: Teal

As I'm writing this, its close to being the next day already.. oops.. But it still is the 13th of may. And for this day I have a teal nail art for you girls!

A while back I bought a lot of polishes(Haul blogpost!) which included some nailpolishes from the Rimmel London Rita Ora collection. Which where perfect for this challenge!

The polishes I used are '873 Breakfast in bed' '863 Do not disturb' from Rimmel London and 'Supernova' by NYC

I have filmed a tutorial for this nail art, but I have a new laptop and now I have troubles installing my editing program.. So I will hopefully fix this soon!

Have fun painting and creating

May Nail Art Challenge: Star Wars

'May the fourth be with you' 

I've never seen the films so this challenge was kinda difficult because I couldn't figure out what I wanted to do on my nails. 

So I just googled 'star wars nail art' and got some ideas from the search results.

The nailpolishes I used for this nail art are '#809' '#850' and '#21' from Hema and 'Party Time Blue' by NYC

the #21 from Hema is a blacklight activated polish. And I thought I could create some effects using this nailpolish...

 

Have fun painting and creating

May Nail Art Challenge: Dry Brush

Second challenge for the random nail art challenge: dry brush.

Dry brush is a technique where you remove almost all of the nailpolish from the nailpolishbrush and apply the amount that is left on the brush onto your nails. This gives a interesting effect, if I say so myself..

The nailpolishes I used for this nail art are 'I Got The Flower' by Catrice for the base. 'Lucky In Lilac' 'Lilactric' and '#809' from Hema for the dry brush stripes. 

Have fun painting and creating

May Nail Art Challenge: Paisley

First one in the random nail art challenge : Paisley

And I must admit, when I saw this I was kinda scared.. I first didn't really knew what kind of thing paisley was and when I looked it up on Google my heart jumped a little. It looked so intricate and difficult to do freehand.

But I managed to make a nail art I am really proud of!

The polish I used for this nail art is 'Blue Sky' by NYC and the other colours are black, white, red and yellow acrylic paint.

 

Next up : May flowers from the nail art challenge!
