Pink gradient peek

This is a more successful version of the rainbow stripes.

-paint ur nails white
-Sponge dab 3 shades of pink ( refer to sponge dabbed ombré below)
-repeat

And there, I had my nails pink n pretty for a good week. That's when some polish starts to chip, and nails start to grow. Don't worry time to re-use and transform the design!

-paste thin strips of tape
-choose vertical area to reveal more gradient effect
-make sure a portion of the tape is sticking out so u can remove them easily later
-when making overlap design, take note of the tape on top! So u can remove the top one first. Otherwise a chunk may be removed
-polish black over all nails
-wait
-Matt top coat
-wait
-peel off the stickers and walla! :)

Ps: I didn't take my nails when it was ugly n chipping. I should have cause the transformation is huge :s

Nails Accessories Review- Part 2

Continued from part 1

 

1) Salon Express

 

What's Good?

A cheaper version of nail art stamping tools, lot of design in a set. But thats it.. :(

What's Not?

The metal plate designs are very thin and the rubber doesnt pick up the colours well. It takes a few tries to complete a picture -_- Bearing in mind that most of us would want to stamp over a base colour, and then u restart. Basically.. dont get it! unless u have some special polish that works miracle over this

 

 

 

2) Seche Vite Quick Dry

 

What's Good?

Quick dry! need i say more? Less than 20s for the top surface layer to dry, slightly longer for the middle section depending on the thickness of your coat. The brush is pretty soft to brush over ur designs without destroying it :)

 

What's Not?

Maybe the drip dry would work better if u want to Immediately apply top coat.

3) Empty Pill box

What's Good?

Cheap and readily available in stores. Instead of having a bunch of plastic bags, all can be fitted in and conveniently used.

 

What's Not?

Mine is a quite tight, difficult to open. But that's hardly a problem if u get a right one.

4) Pencil/Stationary holder

What's Good?

From Daiso! Place all the lengthy accessories, pens/brushes/Dotting tool/buffer etc. Beautiful and fluffy :)

 

4) OPI Euro Minis

What's Good?
Nice packaging with vibrant and lovely colours! Good to invest in mini-s since I personally never finished using up a normal sized OPI. Oh, and i have never finished a mini sized one either -_-

What's not?
Gold colour not solid enough but should be no problem when used over a coloured base :)
