Geometric Double Stamped Nail Art

Hello readers,
Today I have another nail art look where I didn't quite know what I intended the end look to be as I was going. I think I ended up with a bit of a 80's geometric feel. Read on for all the details.

Snowy Winter Forest Nail Art

Hello readers,
Christmas is only a couple of days away and here in Southwestern Ontario it looks like it's going to be a white one. I'm not really one for the usual red and green holiday designs, but snow makes it feel like Christmas to me. For this year's holiday nail art I went for a peacefully snowy forest scene.

Fall Leaves Nail Art

Hello readers,
I've been slacking when it comes to nail art the last couple months, so I when Beautometry announced a 'Next Top Swatcher' nail art contest I used it as an opportunity to gain some nail art motivation. This week's theme was 'Leaves' so I took inspiration from the trees outside for this look.

Always Be A Mermaid Nail Art

Purchased Myself Press Sample

Hello readers,
Today I have some mermaid inspired nail art to share with you. I started with a base of Lucky 13 Lacquer Always Be A Mermaid and dabbed some Lucky 13 Lacquer Cynical Cephalopod glitter on the tips to add some visual texture. Then I used Girly Bits Cosmetics Pardon My Periwinkle stamping polish and Bundle Monster plate BM-502 to add the fish scale design. Last, I sealed everything up with a coat of CND Super Stickey top coat. Photos were taken in daylight spectrum lighting.

Aqua and Gold Wave Nail Art Featuring Born Pretty Store Black Stamping Head

Hello readers,
Today I have a nail art look I did using the Black Stamping Head from Born Pretty Store. This silicone stamper is the same size as the Moyou London marshmallow stamper, and I used the same holder with this one. As far as squishiness goes, it is not as squishy as the Moyou marshmallow head but squishier than the large head of a more traditional double ended stamper. I didn't have do any priming to get it to pick up images.

Lagoon Nails

Hello readers,
Today I have some more nail art to share with you. I started out with a base of Zoya Ireland, a mossy grey green. Then I added a coat of Femme Fatale Unwoven Light to add some sparkle and shimmer. I added the leafy pattern using Lilypad Lacquer Bluebell and Bundle Monster plate BM-501. One coat of CND Super Shiney sealed everything up. The end result reminds me of a shallow lagoon - a mix of blue water, green seaweed and sparkling light.

Nail Polish Canada Holiday 2015 Nail Art Challenge: Squishy Double Stamped Snowflakes
