Stripes


Base: Dance Legend Fly Away
Stripes using striping tape and ChG icicle
Accent: Chambor gel effect 510
All topped with SV

Here's a swatch of DL Fly Away from their Angel wings collection


Such a cute shade..like an inbetween for taupe-pink with silver and pink shimmer. Dries to a very frosty finish. So so pretty! wish I had more shades from this collection.

Striping tape nail art and two more!

Wanted to try out striping nails since a long time. And had some new polishes to try as well. Plus gradients always look so good. And the result is this:


 Base: maybelline color show constant candy: a nice baby pink with mild shimmers but was streaky. 
Added some striping tape in random manner.
Sponged: Faces sand coat in oatmeal raisin. 

I love how this turned out.. Quite interesting and did grab a few eyeballs with random strangers asking me if those were some new kind of nail stickers or stick on nails. Hehe!

Meanwhile a niece-nephew twin duo had come to stay over a couple of days. While the nephew was happy watching oggy and the cockroaches (yikes!! Yes that's what cartoons are called these days) the niece was bored so I did my usual stuff on her too. See.


Cute nails right?

And meanwhile a friend was getting married and I offered to do her nails too. 
I wanted to do a very intricate kind of design.. But after I saw her hands full of the traditional Indian henna (Mehndi) I decided to keep it bold but simple.


 Whew! Long post I know. 
See ya soon.

Of half moons and striped French


There is still excitement abuzz about the newly launched maybelline polishes. I am eyeing quite a few other shades.
Meanwhile to entice us more Maybelline has sponsored a few contests to win some of the new polishes. And this is my entry to the contest hosted by http://www.newlove-makeup.com 

I have been thinking about trying something other than stamping. And I went through my stash of nail art stuff and picked a couple of things and ended up doing this. 


Base: maybelline colorshow blackout
Design: maybelline colorshow bold gold


I am totally in love with the mani. Simple. Chic. Completely wearable and classy.

Gonna try more of non stamping stuff when I have some time on my hands again. Surprisingly this didn't take much time to do either. 

Loving it!! Do you?
