Red Gradient

Hello dear readers,

As you can see, again gradients!
This is in red and yellow with silver glitter and a small black star on the nail of the ring finger and the thumb.
To make the colors blend better, I used a medium orange.

It reminds me of reggae music, I'm not a fan of it, but depending on the mood I might listen it.
So, what reminds you of?

I used:

Maybelline base strengthener

Colorama Amarelo Sol

Colorama Laranja Citrico

Revlon 908

Impala Disco Ball

Colorama Glitter Prata

Colorada Extra Brillo

I wanted to thank Gwenn for the interview on her blog.

Hello!


I was a bit disappeared, due to exams. Now more quiet, I dedicate part of my free time to my nails. This is an old design, one of the first. The base color was a little off, it may not help much the color of the points.
I was used to practice a lot but today it would not do the same.

I used:

Maybelline base strengthener

Colorama Hippie Chic

Maybelline 720

Revlon 908

Impala 048

Colorama Laranja Citrico

Colorama Extra Brillo

The Beginning: Blue Gradient

Hi everyone! Today I will write about my first design, is far from being one of my favorites, particularly because he was not very neat and the photo quality is pretty bad. Plus I had the nails too short.
It is a 3-tone blue gradient with glitter near the tips.
Not much more to narrow, this was the beginning:

I used:

Colorama NutriBase
Colorama Azul Celeste
Maybelline 630
Maybelline 898
Revlon 441
Colorama Extra Brillo

This is the Revlon 441. It's a beautiful glitter!

See you soon!

I love gradients!

After 2 weeks of relaxation, I have some new designs.

I want to start with this one, one of my favourites, the brown gradient. I made it a few weeks ago, you can see I had my nails shorter than now!

The first picture is a preview of the base colour. A mix between pearl and light brown.

This picture, is the final design of the gradient:

I used: 

Maybelline base strengthener

Maybelline 788

Hope you like it!

Violet French

Hi!

This is an old design, one of my first. Not one of my favorites, but I like it. It's like a French but diagonally with other colors. I added dashes on the dark side, near the union between the two colors to add a detail.

-I used-

Colorama NutriBase

Colorama Rosa Tropical

Maybelline 250

Maybelline 77

Colorama Extra Brillo

Funny thing: The next day, at work, they gave us cup cakes and I got one that matched my nails, so here's the photo! (Sorry for the poor quality, was taken with the phone!).

Thanks for stopping by! :)

Candies

Hello!
My first post, is about my favourite design, I called it 'Candies' because many people said my nails looks like candies with this fresh colors.
For gradients, I usually use a little make up sponge. It makes the fusion more soft.
The day I did this, I was wearing a Lacoste T-Shirt, and my new awesome lipstick from Dior, n° 566.

-Nail polishes used in this design-

Maybelline base strengthener

Rimmel 058 (Collection 'I love fruities')

Colorama Rosa Tropical

Impala Disco Ball

Colorama Glitter Prata

Colorama Extra Brillo

I hope you enjoyed it!

Welcome!

Hi everyone! I'm starting my new blog. A couple of months ago, I started watching some videos on YouTube, about makeup and nail art. So I thought, I could do something like that, to show my ideas and have an excuse to go shopping! :) Thanks for stopping by!
