30 Day Nail Challenge Day 7: Black & White

The 30 Day Nail Challenge Day 7: Black & White manicure.
I was surfing the net and stumbled upon a tutorial for a beautiful design by Robin Moses. I’ve included the YouTube link for the tutorial below:

Robin Moses Black Bird Tutorial

After watching the video I had to try out her techniques, this was also my first time using acrylic paint in a manicure.

I used a grey polish and a pink iridescent polish to do the clouds, I also created bushier trees by using a stippling motion with my brush.

The finished product reminds me of French toile fabric.

What so you think?

For this look I used:
Maybelline Color Show Porcelain Party
NYC Sidewalkers
Revlon Ritzy
Hard Candy Black Tie Optional
Rimmel Lasting Finnish Black Satin
Sally Hansen Beyond Perfect Fresh Lavender
Delta Ceramcoat acrylic paint Black
Seche Vite Top Coat

30 Day Nail Challenge Day 5: Blue

by Izzy • April 4, 2013 • 0 Comments

Here is my fifth manicure for the “Challenge”, it is blue and since I received my new Winstonia nail plates I couldn’t wait to use them. (Jumps up and down like a schoolgirl!)

And, yes my dear reader you saw correctly: NEW NAIL PLATES!!!! They are made by Winstonia and I ordered them here. The mustache and glasses stamped really well, I was a bit worried, sometimes the designs with larger surface areas to transfer can be tricky. I used some Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear to stamp the designs, I find the thicker stuff better for stamping.
So here it is, what do you think?

I love the mustaches and glasses, they remind me of police officers. The thumb nail colour has round glitter in it the matches the blue sparkle of the darker nails. I have never met a glitter I could resist!

For this manicure I used:
Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear: Breezy Blue
Revlon: Gold Coin (stamp)
Essence Colour & Go: Date in the Moonlight
Maybelline Color Show: Sea-Quins
Seche Vite Top Coat

30 Day Nail Challenge Day 4: Green

by Izzy • April 3, 2013 • 0 Comments

It is now day four of the 30 day nail challenge and today’s colour is green.

While I wanted to do a totally new mani I just couldn’t bring myself to get rid of my accent nails from day 3 (I really loved the gingham effect of the stamping) so, instead of taking it all off I added some stuff to it. So after Izzy-fying it with a new accent colour and green stamping, I added a blue racing stripe with some dots (this will def make my nails look faster! Lol! Race car joke alert)

30 Day Nail Challenge Day 3: Yellow

Hope everyone had a good Easter holiday! It is always nice to have time off from work.
This is the third day of the 30 Day Nail Challenge and today the nail colour is yellow. I struggled with this one too, I had originally done a navy blue dotted accent nail but it was an epic fail.
