Mummies

Hello Lacquer Lovers!

Today I have a super cute mummy manicure! This design is popular in the nail art community, as I've seen many of my fellow bloggers do it!

I started off with two coats of Petites Vintage Gray. Then, using a L.A. Colors Art Deco nail art striper in Black I added in all of the lines. For the eyes I used Wet n Wild French White Creme and Rimmel London Black Satin.

I absolutely love this look! It was super easy, taking me about ten minutes to complete!

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays for nail art, as there are so many options!

I'll be back on Thursday with a spooky Twinsie Thursday post!

Goldfish Nail Art

Hello Lacquer Lovers! 

Today I have a nail art look that I am currently wearing, goldfish nail art! I'm so excited to share this look with y'all. I think I may be finally out of my nail art funk. Let's get to the nails!

 

 Polishes Used:

Wet n Wild Teal Slowly and Sea

Wet n Wild French White Creme

FingerPaints Iconic Orange

L.A. Colors Art Deco Striper in Yellow

L.A. Colors Art Deco Striper in Bright Green

Rimmel London Black Satin

This look was inspired by the lady who got me into nail art, Robin Moses! Here is the video I based this look off of:

 

Overall, I'm loving this look on my nubbins!

I'll be back later in the week with another post! :)

Pineapple Skittle

Hello Lacquer Lovers!

Today I have a super cute pineapple skittle, inspired by elleandish on YouTube.

I think this is the perfect manicure to celebrate the end of the summer!

Thumb & Pinky

I used two coats of China Glaze Metro Pollen-Tin. Then, I added some gold studs to add something a little extra!

Index

I started off with two coats of China Glaze At Vase Value. Then, I added three white stripes using L.A. Colors Art Deco White Striper and added a gold stud.

Middle

I started off with two coats of Wet n Wild French White Creme. Then taking China Glaze Metro Pollen-Tin I drew an oval. I used L.A. Colors Art Deco Stripers in Bright Green and Bright Orange to add the pineapple's characteristics. The pineapple is a little off center, but practice makes perfect. :)

Ring

I started off with two coats of China Glaze At Vase Value and I topped it off with one thick coat of a Sally Hansen Gem Crush in Bling-Tastic.

What do you think? Have you ever thought about rocking fruit as a mani?

Twin Nails: Birds & Feathers

Hello Lacquer Lovers!

Today I have a twin post with Morven from Pretty Quirky!

We decided to go with a feather with birds ''flying out'' of it over a blue gradient!

For my gradient, I used Wet n Wild Teal Slowly and See, along with Zoya Ling. For the design I used L.A. Colors Art Deco Striper in Black. 

I really like the way this looks! I may try it again over a multicolor gradient for a sunset effect.

Here are Morven's nails. How cute are they!?

Until next time! <3

Lilac Tribal

Hello Lacquer Lovers!

Today I have a lilac tribal look, inspired by a nail art look I found on chantellevermont.com.

For this look, I used two even coats of Sinful Colors Sinful Shine in Pragmatic. It is a gorgeous lilac with a slight shimmer.

Then, I used L.A. Colors nail art stripers in Black and White to create the tribal patterns. 

After it dried I used China Glaze Fairy Dust to bring it all together and top coated.

I'm really loving the tribal look this summer! 

What look are you loving right now? Let me know in the comments! :)

Fox Nail Art

Hello Lacquer Lovers!

What does the fox say? Haha ;) Today I have a cute fox nail art look that can be done in an infinite amount of colors!

The index finger is two coats of Wet n Wild Teal Slowly and See topped with an unlabeled Bonita chunky orange glitter.

The middle finger is two coats of Zoya Arizona topped with light blue rhinestones from eBay.

For the ring finger I used two coats of Wet n Wild French White Creme as the base. I used L.A. Colors nail art striper in Bright Orange to draw the fox. I also used Milani nail art stripers in Black Sketch and White Canvas for the details.

The pinkie finger is two coats of Wet n Wild Teal Slowly and See with one coat of Sally Hansen Ice Queen. 

I thought the fox would be very hard to draw, but it was much easier than I thought. 

I would love to see some of my lovely readers recreate this! If you do, post it on my Facebook wall; I'd love to see it! 

Pumpkins!

Hello Lacquer Lovers!

What says Halloween more than pumpkins? I get a pumpkin every time I go to the store, so I thought I would recreate my love for them on my nails! 

As most of my nail art, this is perfect for beginners!

As a base color a chose Pure Ice Oh Baby!, which is a pearly opalescent color. Then, I took a nameless neon orange Color Club and made the pumpkin shape. I did 2 coats for maximum opacity. They don't have to be perfect; no pumpkins ever are! I used Diamond Cosmetics Nail Art Striper in 14K for the outline and curves of the pumpkin. Then, I used L.A. Colors Nail Art Striper in Bright Green and Diamond Cosmetics Nail Art Striper in Cocoa for the leaves and the stems. 

I think that this is a perfect fall manicure whether you celebrate Halloween or not! If you wanted a super spooky manicure, then you could add Jack-O-Lateran faces!

Until Next time, stay spooky! 

Independence Day!

Hello Lacquer Lovers!

Happy Independence Day to all of my US ladies!

Today's post will be super quick, but it is a momentous occasion! My right hand turned out better nail art wise than my left, which never happens!

On my pinkie I used two coats of L.A. Colors BCC566, which is a navy shimmer. I applied one coat of Orly Spazmatic over it. It is the perfect navy combo!

On my ring finger I started off with two coats of Wet n Wild French White Creme. I then applied one coat L.A. Colors Art Deco Nail Art Striper in Red Glitter. It has more of a pink pay off, so I suggest two coats. Next to Red Glitter I applied one coat of L.A. Colors Art Deco Nail Art Striper in Blue Glitter. I wish they had more original names!

My middle finger has two coats of OPI Red My Fortune Cookie, which is my go to red! Using L.A. Colors Nail Art Striper in Silver I drew an anchor. A tutorial will be up on that soon!

Again I used two coats of OPI Red My Fortune Cookie on my index finger. I layered one coat of China Glaze Ring in the Red over it.

On my thumb I have two coats of Jindie-PENDENCE over Wet N Wild White French Creme. You can find a full review HERE. 

As always I started off with a base coat and topped it off with top coat!

Don't forget about my GIVEAWAY!

See you in a few days!
