Watermarble Nails!!

Hello, 

I love doing watermarble manicures. They are little tricky but they come out absolutely gorgeous every time, all you need is right nail polishes. Back in 2015  Pipe Dream Polish (an indie polish brand) released a collection of neon polishes which went crazy popular among nail artists because they water marbles like dream. So after a lot of struggle i could order a set for myself and i was so happy to see the results. These are my favourite polishes for watermarble.

Celebrating India's MARS Orbiter Mission "Mangalyaan"

Hello, 

I mentioned in my previous post about India's Mars Orbiter Mission "Mangalyaan". The spacecraft(called Mangalyaan) successfully inserted into MARS orbit on 24th September 2014. 

ISRO(India Space Research Organization) is fourth space agency in the world to do so. Also, India is first nation in the world to achieve this in first attempt and first Asian nation to do this. Not only that, It is the cheapest MARS orbiter programme till now and costed less than movie Gravity, incredible right. I did a nail art to celebrate this achievement of ISRO. Inspiration for this nail art is an image i found on internet.

El Corazon "Jelly Neon" Polishes as Sheer Tints

Hello, 

How was the weekend? Spring is started here in Australia and now we see sun more often. I am so loving it because it has been really long (ten months long)winters for me as I was in UK till april and moved to Australia in May which is kinda start of winters here. Anyway, I am happy that finally i can get rid of coats and jackets.  

Enough of rant, today I am sharing few nail arts which I did using El Corazon "jelly neon" collection(swatched here). When i reviewed those polishes, I said that these will work great as sheer tint polishes. I tried them and they didnt disappoint me.

Chevron

Hi, 

I was suppose to post this nail art yesterday but anyway. This manicure is inspired from a nail art I saw on instagram which i find out is from a fellow aussie blogger Theresa aka It's all about the polish. I just loved that mani and the color combination inspired me to do one myself. I got a packet of chevron tip guides from Born Pretty Store. So I decided to do a chevron design with same color scheme.

Water-marble Manicure for Friendship Day

Hello, 

I hope you all had a great weekend. This weekend was special because we celebrated International Nail Art Day on 2nd August and Friendship Day on 3rd August. I did manicures for both of the days. Today I am sharing my friendship day manicure, I will share my INAD manicure in another post. 

Few days back, in a FB group I gave a challenge to Diana to do a  "stamping nail art over a base of  watermarble of three colors" and she did a fabulous job(you an check that here). If you are a nail art enthusiast than you may know that doing a water marble isn't piece of cake and I felt little bad for giving a tough theme. So, I decided to do a water marble manicure too. Here is my mani.

Textured Watermelon Nail Art

Hello,

Some of the nail art themes are evergreen themes like dots, leopard print, and fruit nail arts. Today, I am sharing  a nail art which i never attempted  before, Watermelon Nail Art. There are lots of beautiful watermelon manicures in the community and it was little challenging to come with a little different idea. So, here are my textured watermelon nails. I choose to draw a vertical cross section image of watermelon.

ILL Weekly Challenge- Follow Someone's Tutorial

Hello,

I like this season very much. All the stores are stuffed with gifts, chocolates, sales and discounts.Yesterday, i went to  my nearest Tk-max to check out some kitchen stuff and I was surprised, usually my tk-max have most boring stuff but yesterday it was filled with lots of nail polish sets, soaps and other gift sets.  I saw a cute China Glaze set which has a little teddy bear(or some soft toy, i don't remember) along-with two China glaze polishes. I am gonna go there tomorrow and will buy check it out.  I went to Winter Wonderland too. I went there last year too. Though it was too crowd-y but I love going there.

Coming to today's post, I am a part of a FB group of Indian nail art/nail  polish lover called "Indian Lacquer Lover". In this group we do a weekly nail challenge. In this challenge we choose a theme through voting and share our manicures every Monday.  Today's theme for #ILLnailchallenge is "Follow Someone's Tutorial". I recreated a floral manicure inspired from a tutorial posted by Lucie from Lucy's Stash.

You can check  the tutorial here.

ILL nail challenge

I used Layla Ocean Rush as my base polish and acrylics for the drawing.

So, after you watch Lucy's post you can understand that this is not a very good work. My flowers are way too big and not so clean and honestly I think i could do better. 

 

Well what you think?? I will be waiting for your opinion on this manicure.

I believe this will look more beautiful if i had a french tip done but anyway i dont know why but I like this manicure so much. Maybe after a long time i did something very simple and basic. Change is nice.

33DC31- Artwork with Three Favorite Polishes

Hello,  

I hope you had great weekend and all prepared for the week ahead. Today's theme is Artwork with your three favorite polishes. It took me so long to decide only three favorite polishes. I certainly have more than favorite than three. Finally i choose Barry M Pomegranate Gelly, China Glaze Hanging in Balance and Sally Hansen White On. I like pomegranate gelly because it is a beautifully polish not red,not pink, some where in between and it stamps very well too. Hanging in balance is exactly the blue i like and white on is one white polish i use most in my nail arts. 

I started watching Coupling from this weekend and my today's nail art is inspired from the background image of introductions.
