Mani-Monday: Breast Cancer Awareness

 

I did these nails a few weeks ago for Breast Cancer Awareness. Since October is Breast Cancer Awareness month, I thought I would upload these before the month is over. They are really quick, easy, and simple to do. And obviously those are the best nail designs. You get a fun mani in a short amount of time. To get this look:

Mani-Monday: Dots, Dots, Dots

I got this new nail polish and it is absolutely GORGEOUS! I am in love with the color. It’s such a bright and summery color, it’s like a bright coraly color. When I put this nail polish on I just thought ‘how could I cover up such a gorgeous color with nail art?’ BUT, I obviously can’t go with plain nail polish (haven’t worn just plain nail polish without nail art in about 2+ years). So I created a simple design with a few dots which lets the polish still be the center on attention. To get this look:

 

You will need:

Base coat

Coral nail polish

Black acrylic or nail polish

White acrylic or nail polish

Silver nail polish

Top coat

Dotting tool or toothpick

 

Step 1: First, apply your base coat. Then apply two coats of your bright coral polish. I used ‘East Austin’ by Color Club. Wait for your nails to dry a few minutes.

 

Step 2: Next, using a dotting tool or toothpick, dip it in the black acrylic or nail polish and create the first line of dots vertically at the end of your nail. Then, dip your dotting tool or toothpick in the silver nail polish, I used ‘Give me the 1^st Dance’ by Nicole by OPI, and create the second line of dots. Lastly, dip your dotting tool or toothpick in the white acrylic or nail polish and create the last line of dots vertically in the center of the nail. All the dots should have about the same spacing between. Wait for the dots to dry a few minutes so the color doesn’t drag when you apply the top coat.

 

Step 3: Lastly, apply a generous amount of top coat and voila! I love this simple mani this week! This is also such a versatile look and you can change up the colors and have fun with it.

Mani-Monday: Mint Sparkle

I have wanted a mint green nail polish for a while now! And finally ‘Mint Mist’ by Maybelline joined the other nail polishes. I am so satisfied with these Maybelline nail polishes that I want to get every one of them. ‘Mint Mist’ is supposed to be a mint green color however it turned out more bluish than green. But I still LOVE this polish. I wanted to create something simple yet different with this color because I just love the nail polish color so much that I wanted it to be the main focus. So I came up with this:

 

You will need:

Base coat

Mint green nail polish

Silver nail polish

Top coat

Step 1: First, apply your base coat. Then apply two coats of your mint green polish. I used ‘Mint Mist’ by Maybelline. You don’t really have to but I let it dry for about 2 minutes.

Step 2: Next, using your silver nail polish, I used ‘Electric Avenue’ by Nails Inc., start lightly applying the polish in upward strokes at the cuticle and stopping about half way. Try to create a fading effect. Apply the silver polish over again but this time just at the base of the cuticle.

Step 3: Lastly, apply a top coat and you’re done! It is classy and lets the mint green be the focus of the nail. It was quick and simple to create.

Mani-Monday: Nude and Navy With a Little Sparkle

I have been absolutely LOVING the new Maybelline Color Show Nail Lacquer. For this nail design, I used ‘Sapphire Siren’ and ‘Sandstorm’ by Maybelline and I used ‘Electric Avenue’ by Nails Inc. The Maybelline nail lacquers are simply amazing. They have a great range of colors that are highly pigmented and they do not seem to chip as quickly as other nail polishes.

What you will need:

Base coat

3 nail polishes

Dotting tool or toothpick

Top coat

Step 1: First, apply your base coat. Then apply two coats of your first polish. I used ‘Sandstorm’ by Maybelline. Let it dry for about 5 minutes.

Step 2: Then using your next nail polish, I used ‘Sapphire Siren’ by Maybelline, create the chevron French tip.

 

Step 3: Lastly, using a dotting tool or toothpick, dip it in your last nail polish, I used ‘Electric Avenue’ byNails Inc., and dot it along the chevron French line. Then, apply a top coat and that’s it! It is so quick and simple and you are left with a very classy and interesting nail design.
