    Neutrals Inception – Stamping with Beige, White, Taupe

    Despite having 4 polishes on me at the time I still managed to create something in advance, (something basic) but hey – still something, for the @clairestelle8challenge Beige prompt. Stamped and ready. It is TAUPE on WHITE on BEIGE in some kind of Neutrals Inception! No video cos I’m still displaced with sporadic data connection and no gear or space; which is

    Pride Rainbow & Bondage Mardi Gras Nails

    The second look in this week’s Mix ‘N’ Match Mardi Gras Mani set! This option is good for a pop of colour so I kept the bondage aspect and added a Pride Rainbow. You can see the previous all black version. I created this look in gel polish for Opallac using the following shades: (in order from orange to purple)

    Black Leather & Bondage Nails

    Something different for this week cos I’m still far from feeling 100% and there’s some renovating going on. In the lead up to the  Mardi Gras 2017’s big night, I have a series of MIX AND MATCH MANIS – related but slightly different looks to celebrate and show support. The Gay And Lesbian Mardi Gras month is already underway culminating

    f-Oil Slick On Black Market

    With my earnest sense of Dad-jokes, it should be no surprise I’ve named this one f-Oil Slick on Black Market. I mean check it out. How good does she look? This is one smooth-arse version of OIL SLICK NAILS, if I do say so myself. Gel makes the perfect base for using nail foils in art due to it’s great self-levelling

    Fine Lines Gold Accents on Peach

    Today’s nail art is a simple linear with negative space number. Combining some of my favourites. It begins with a base of Life’s A Peach by @OpallacGelPolish and ends with some fine gold lines using a favourite @essiepolish Good As Gold (cos yeah, I’m an #essie #obsessie)… Linework was done with a liner brush from @twinkled_t in a #twinkledt set.

    Punk Nails – Queen Of ROCK CHIC!

    Punk-ing it up! 👊 Calling this one Queen Of ROCK CHIC! A cheeky play on the name of @opallacgelpolish gel polish Queen Of Rock 💅 which I swatched earlier this week. (Well last week, but I have been incapacitated so …) And rawk she does! This shimmering midnight blue was just screaming out for some extra hardware, and you don’t disobey

    Vinyl Hearts for Valentine’s Day

    Vinyl Hearts for Valentine’s Day and the Clairestelle8 HEARTS prompt! I used vinyls from Whats Up Nails and gradient all the things. The hearts and the other fingers are a radial gradient created with a makeup sponge. But since I am using a different camera it was hard to capture the differentiations that you can see in real life. Boo.
