DAY 6

Good evening lovelies,

we are already at day 6 of my Birthday nail art month and today I have a nail design I saw more or less everywhere over the internet.
It is basically a cute little Super Mario Brothers nail design. There are different ones, using different characters.

Here are few of them

Since I am not THAT good with nail arts, I decided to go for a simple french toad design

Here is what I used

O.P.I. – Alpine Snow
O.P.I. – bubble bath
Wet n Wild – megalast – E2143 I red a book
Ciaté – PP065 big yellow taxi
a black polish for the eyes

I think I don’t have to explain too much^^

On the pinky, the middle and pointy finger I did a white tip at first, using O.P.I.’s – Alpine Snow. After that was dry I used Wet n Wild’s – I red a book and a thin nail brush to create the thin red line under the white tip. on the ring finger I started with the red head of toad and used a nail correcting pen to get a clean edge. I let it dry and used Alpine Snow to paint the dots on his head and painted a base for his face. After that was dry I painted over the white with Bubble Bath, let it dry and painted his eyes on^^

Last but not least I also applied two coats of Alpine Snow on my thumb, let it dry and created the star.

That is all. I felt it was a pretty easy nail design. You can also use different colors for example green for the 1up mushroom or also blue.
You could also do a different one on each nail^^

What do you think?

I really love Mario. I used to play it a lot when I was together with my cousin and I do play it a lot with my BF.

What about you? Do you like Super Mario Brothers?

Have a great night

DAY 5

Hello everyone,

jamming to the Breaking Bad soundtracks I am writing this post. God I can not tell you enough how much I love this show.but today’s nail art is not about that…..later.

For today I have a more mediterranean nail design for you.

Here is what I used

p2 – LE sea’ la vie – 030 navy
Essence Nail Art Effect Topper – 03 hello holo
O.P.I. – Alpine Snow
Wet n Wild – megalast – E2143 I red a book
Ciaté – PP050 ladylike luxe

p2’s navy was applied on the pinky finger, Essence’s Hello holo on the ring finger, O.P.I.’s Alpine Snow on the middle finger and Wet n Wild’s I red a book was applied on the pointy finger as well as the thumb. On each nail applied two coats. Only hello holo got three coats to get a stronger holo finish.on Alpine Snow I also used p2’s navy, painted 4 horizontal lines and let it dry properly. On the thumb I used Ciaté’s PP050 ladylike luxe and painted an anchor with my self-cut paint brush. The gold polish was still wet when I placed the gold nail beads. After that I used white polish to paint on the heart on the middle finger, let it dry and painted over it with th red Wet n wild polish. To set everything in place I applied a clear top coat.
