This might be my first real nailfail... 

#84 November NailArt Challenge: Tape

Between work and other stuff, I still wanted to do a nail art. And the next challenge in the november nail art challenge was a tape nailart. I have painted my nails almost every day now to catch up with the challenge, I'm slowely catching up! But with every day that passes, I get closer to another challenge that I am behind on.. However I am still determined that I will complete the challenge for this month! 

#82 November Nail ArtChallenge: Geometric

I think it's getting more and more undeniable that I am never on time with any challenges. But I am still going to try to complete them all! Today I am sharing the second challenge with you: Geometric nails..

#69 August Random Nail Art Challenge: Fire!

Call the fire brigade! My nails are one fire!

#67 August (Random) Nail Art Challenge: Gladiolus + Outdoors

Combined the two challenges for todayy...uhh three days ago!

August Nail Art Challenge : Ikat!

Took a while, had some problems, but here are my Ikat nails for #nailartaug!

Nail Art Challenge May Completed!

It's getting near the end of the day for me here. And that means the end of the month May and the beginning of a new month! But first I completed both challenges!

#54 May Nail Art Challenge: Fruity!

Good afternoon ladies! On this rainy day I have some colourful nail art for you! For the first time I've tried out fimo's and I must say; I think I like these tiny tiny things! I hope the fimo fruit will stay on for a decent amount of time but I fear the worst.. If they survive the night, they have to survive me working tomorrow, so fingers crossed ;) 

For this nail art I used #809 from Hema 'High Line Green' by NYC 'Orange-Utan' and 'Bloody Mary To Go' by Catrice

May Nail Art Challenge: Dinosaurs

Another blogpost for you today! Another challenge for the random nail art challenge. 
The challenge for today was Dinosaurs!

I really struggled with this nail art, I had no clue how I could do something with dinosaurs on my nails, I searched WeHeartIt and Instagram for inspiration but didn't find anything of which I though I could use. 

So I kept this one really simple but I still think it came out ok. For this nail art I used only one nailpolish. 'Dirty Liana' by Catrice and the black is acrylic paint.

 

It supposed to be a dinosaur who has eaten all the leaves of the branch on my pinky and after that continued his walk with a full tummy ;)

Hope you like this nail art

May Nail Art Challenge: Yin Yang

Greeting lovely nailcrazies! 

Today I don't have a huge blogpost for you. We are closing in on the end of may, and the end of the challenges, but we still have some to go! Today I made a super simple Yin Yang nail art

For this nail art I used a black nailpolish #851 by Hema and 'Nickel Minaj' by Catrice.

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!

May Nail Art Challenge: Mom

Happy Mothers Day! 

For both of the challenges there was a mothers day themed challenge. But on days before mothers day. So I waited for today, which is Mothers Day in The Netherlands, to make this nail art! I didn't knew what to make for this day, so my first idea was to make something on the nails of my mother. But she had to work and she is not allowed to wear nailpolish while working.  My second plan was to ask her what she wanted I make on my nails. But she couldn't think of anything... 

So I ended up just painting my nails a red/dark pink colour and drawing some random things on my nails. I think they ended up nice though :)

For the base colour I used 'Raspberryfields Forever' by Catrice and the white and black are acrylic paints.

 

Have fun painting and creating,

May Nail Art Challenge: Cinco De Mayo

A day late but here it is. The third challenge of the Nail Art May challenge from Californails.

For this nail art I used 'Birdy Reloaded' by Catrice and the other colours are acrylic paint. 


 








  
For this nail art I was inspired by the dresses I saw on google when I googled 'Cinco de Mayo'

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

#50 May Nail Art Challenge: Flowers

The first challenge for the Nail Art Challenge by Californails is May Flowers. 

For this nail art I used three green polishes: 'I'm Not A Greenager' 'Miss Piggy's BF' and 'Take It Mint' all by Catrice

For the flowers I used white, black and purple acrylic paint. I used the black and white to darken and lighten the purple.

I had the time to film and make a tutorial for this nail art. If you want to look and see how I created this look, you can click right here.

Side note: The purple I used I never used before and turned out the acrylic paint really sucked! So the end result isn't what I had imagined. But I still like it.

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!
