I’m back with a simple nail art. On my index, middle and pinky fingernails, I made a gradient using glitter and I drew stripes on it. And on my ring fingernail, I put glitter nail polish. This nail art is inspired by Kgrdnr on Instagram.

Polishes I used :

Bourjois : Bleu Violet

Barry M : Silver Multi Glitter

No, I’m not done with water marbles haha! This technique is surely tricky but I’m warrior so I’m gonna beat water marbles ass lol! And I think, I get better everytime I do it. This the 3rd time that I post a water marble and this mani is my fave out of the three manicures. This water marble kinda looks like candy cane, I like it. For this nail art, I used nail polishes from Primark. It was the first time that I bought nail polishes there. They got a big shelf of cosmetics and obviously I couldn’t resist to buy nail polishes. And the gel effect nail polishes caught my eyes because they look like the gel nail polish from Nails Inc. So I bought the red nail polish that you can see in my hand and a pink one to test them. I couldn’t wait to test them so I used them the day I bought them. I have to say that for the price, the quality is good. And not all the nail polishes work for water marble so I was happy that Primark nail polishes work for it.

Let the rainbow come to you! For this nail art, I followed the tutorial that Simply Nailogical did three months ago. In this tutorial, she showed how we can use highlighters to do our manicures! You know, highlighters, those things that we use during an exam to highlight the entire paper to make us look smart even tho we don’t know what to write in our essay. As a student, I have a bunch of highlighters in my pencils case so I was pretty excited to test this hack by Simply Nailogical. Oh and I have to express my love for Simply Nailogical! She really changes the nail art game! She tries many new things. I watch a lot of nail art videos on YouTube or Instagram and it’s always the same thing. There is nothing really inventive but now thanks god we have Simply Nailogical! The video of her which left me speechless was How to Cheat at Watermarble - Part 5 (trust me, go watch it). She has so incredible ideas, that’s insane! Back to my nails now lol. I've put glitter on my nails then I tried to make big strokes with the highlighters. In her video, Simply Nailogical tried 3 different types of highlighters and said that the liquid ones were the best. It was perfect because this is what I have the most (except for orange one, I used a regular one because I did not have a liquid one but it works well anyway). I’m not a DIY kind of person like this nail art proves it but I’m pretty proud of this manicure! I was a little afraid to fail this nail art because that kind of manicure isn’t what I used to do on my nails. Expirements scare me lol but finally it was easy to do. I was so proud when I went to the mall to buy a blush for my mom (3615 my life) and the saleswoman complimented my nails and thought that doing nails was my job lol. 

Polish I used :

Ciaté : Purple Rain-bow

Flowers are always a good idea! But even if it’s always good idea, I feel like I always struggle doing realistic flowers. It always ends up being big dots of colors with some others colors in it but when I add leaves, it’s a little bit better! And you gotta show some love to this beautiful mint nail polish from Essie! This color is so pretty.

Polishes I used :

Essie : Blossom Dandy

There is a story behind this nail art lol. So here it’s the story time : at first, I wanted to try the DIY that HelloMaphie showed on her Youtube Channel. She showed a weird nail art hack using CDs. So you’re looking at my nails and you ask to yourself : “where is the CDs?” They are not there lol. In her video, she showed how to do shattered glass nail art with CDs. She explains that you have to cut the CDs and in there you’ll find (normally) a holographic paper but I didn’t find it lol. I cut like 4 CDs and I didn’t find that holographic paper. It was very late at night so I said to myself : “you can’t cut 100 CDs for a nail art” and instead of using CDs I used aluminium. I remembered that Tartofraises used aluminium in one of her mani so I did too! This is not the effect that I wanted at first but I find the mani funny lol. DIY are really not made for me. I didn’t keep this manicure a long time because the aluminium begun to peel off.

But the pink nail polish is very pretty, no ?

Polish I used :

Yves Rocher : Rose Pastel

I didn’t make water marble since this mani. So it was a pretty longtime since I made a water marble that why I felt the urge to do one. But water marble nails seem a good idea until you have nail polish all over your hands and that your fingers are wet. I did my best with these nails, it’s not that bad lol. I tried to do striped water marble.

Polishes I used :

Nails Inc. : Notting Hill Carnival

I got some ethnic vibes for you! These colors together make me think about a hippie/bohemian dress that you can wear at Coachella (this is a pure coincidence, I swear!). 

For this nail art, I used the dry brush technique with Essie nail polishes from the 2013 summer collection and I made some white patterns on the top. 

Polishes I used :

Essie : Sunday Funday

Essie : Full Steam Ahead

Essie : The More the Merrier

Today, I take you for a trip to Tokyo! Maybe you have noticed it, I tried to change the way I take my pictures.. I’m not very satisfied lol. I tried to change the light and I think that I focused too much on my nails. I’m still trying to improve the way I take my pictures, this is what I like about blogging : we always try to improve ourself. Personally, I can note that my way to make nail art has improved. And I’m very happy about that! But anyway, let’s talk about the nails themselves. This nail art is inspired by Dahlia Nails. On my middle and pinky fingernails, I made three gold dots near my cuticles. On my index and ring fingernails, I made some black aztec patterns. I especially love my index fingernail.

Polishes I used :

Mavala : Tokyo

Maybelline : Gold All Night

White & Black Polishes

I think that I will never be tired of this combo. Gradient and patterns will always have my heart! For this nail art, I put some random dots of nail polish on my sponge and I dabbed it on my nails. Then, I made some white patterns. I alterned vertical patterns with horizontal patterns. I think that the colors are well blended together.

Polishes I used :

Essie : Using my Maiden Name

Essie : My Better Half

OPI : Sparrow me the Drama

H&M : Peppermint Fusion

Kiko : n°270

Spring is here! Who says spring also says flowers, so voila! In the background, I made some grid patterns. On the grid patterns, I made flowers. This nail art is a negative space nail art so I’m aware that we see that my nails are not that white but like Simply Nailogical said it : yellow nails don’t matter! My nails are healthy, I swear. I wear nail polish like 99.9999999% of the time so it doesn’t matter that they are yellow. 

Also, this nail art make me think about these things in front of my house.. You know, tutors which guide plants to allow them to grow. I have exactly that in front of my house, they are white and in a squared pattern.

I don’t really know what this design is, I would say that this is a kinda aztec design. On my index fingernail, I put a hot pink nail polish and near the cuticle I made a black dot. On my pinky fingernail, I put a yellow pastel and near the cuticle I made a black dot. On my middle and ring fingernails, I made this aztec design.
