Dream Catcher! Final of My Favorite Things Nail Challenge: Favorite Mani!

Hello everyone!

Long time no see! I'm sorry I've been busy this week because I'll be back to school in 2 hours!
I'm feeling lazy ><

BUT today I've got some badass nails for you! I'm showing you the latest mani of My Favorite Things Nail Challenge: MY FAVORITE MANI! (right now?)


I did these nails with the home made decals technique ;)

My background color is OPI - Skull & Glossbones (2 coats).
I freehanded the feathers using China Glaze - Purrfect Plum , Rouge Baiser - Gris Lavande, OPI - Fly , OPI - Did it On'Em , and OPI - Alpine Snow.
I outlined with Wet'n Wild - Black Crème.


These nails were inspired by the accent nails on this mani by Astro Wifey (which is SO talented!).
Do you like them? I'll never want to take them off !! :D

Thank you thank you Kelly for this fabulous challenge! I'm so sad it is over!

Have a great day! <3

CMYK! My Favorite Things Nail Challenge Day 5 "Polka Dots"

Hi everyone!

Sorry my post is a little bit late during the week but I have been overwhelmed by painting projects and my hands never got clean. I'll make a post about those projects at the end of the week!

Today I'm showing my entry for Day 4 of My Favorite Things Nail Challenge, which theme was "polka dots"! I had the idea for this manicure for a looong time ago, at first I thought I was gonna submit it for Chalkboard Nails Dotting Tool Contest!

I was inspired by the pattern we see when we look close to a CMYK printed poster! And I thought this was the occasion to take a try to the newspaper technique ;) On to the pics:


To achieve this look, I applied two coats of OPI - Alpine Snow.
Then I took my colored polishes and I mixed every one with some Seche Restore. I used Rimmel - , OPI - Fly, and.
I grabbed my biggest dotting tool  and started dotting, making sure that the dots were overlaying each others.

For my accent nail, I applied two coats of OPI - Skull & Glossbones.
Then I cut a piece of newspaper, dipped it in medical alcohol and transfer the letters ;)


Did you liked this mani? It is so eye-catching!
