Radiation!

By Melanie


I did the sea otter nails after I watched the YouTube video below. I changed the colors and it reminded me of a radioactive sea. It could be I have just been playing to much fallout but I think with the gold, blue, silver, and black colors it makes it look radioactive. you can always switch up the colors to any design and get a different look maybe one of these times it will look like an Andy Warhol piece. colors are always fun to play around with. I think this design is really cute and fun. I hope you try it!

Mickey Mouse Nails

I did this nail design for my sister in law and she loved it. It was harder than expected to get some things the same but I still think it turned out good. Next time I will do smaller and less dots on the poka doted nail. You can always decided to change things and make the design more personlized.

Ice Cream Owl Nails

by melanie
This was one of my most fun nail arts. This was my first time using acrylic paint on nails. I painted my nails white first with regular nail polish then I painted on them with acrylic paint and topped it with a clear coat of nail polish. I think it turned out good and very bright. Acrylic paint is a lot easier to use then nail polish. I watched two you tube videos by cutepolish to figure out what to do and how.

Which matte is the best matte

In this picture I have done to different matte methods. I haven't cleaned up around my nails yet so don't pay any attention to that. The two different colored nails have matte polish on them and the middle and pointer finger I made the polish matte by putting them over steam while they were still wet and the thumb is the normal polish. I think the already matte polishes looked nicer and they were more matte then the steam ones.

Hair spray and nail art

photos by Melanie
 
this was a fun DIY. first you paint your nails with any nail polish. next you sharpie your nails. any design will do. then spray it with hair spray let it dry the dryer the better and lastly you just put a top coat on. it made it so easy to design using the sharpies. the hairspray I did not like using because afterward your nails smelled like hairspray for a little while. I think I was a little to impatient because mine smeared a little but no enough to bother me and it gave it a little more of the animal fur look to it.

Half & Half

By Melanie Sanchez
I love this nail design. I just painted all my nails half with one color and half with another color. I love it. I just think of them as my to faced nail. I am really loving the copper nail polishes right now and I like the copper paired with the red but I really cant take credit for this color combination because I bought a Revlon nail polish with these colors on both sides.
