Delicate Nail Art

Ever saw an eye-catching design that you just couldn’t get out of your head? If you haven’t joined the Beautylish community, you should… now! This nail design was inspired by a beautylish babe called Tereska H. Check here for her design.
I took the concept of her design and used red and pink colours in mine instead of her original blue and white. My pink swirls are also a bit tighter and packer more into my nails than hers, but you get the idea! 


It’s really simple to do! Just paint your nails with a base coat; I used China Glaze’s strong adhesion base coat before adding two coats of China Glaze Ruby Pumps (deep classic red with sparkle). To make clean up of the lines easier, add your top coat as well.
 
Next all you will need is a Sally Hansen nail art pen in a contrasting colour. I used light pink. Just add random swirls onto your nails. The points of the pens are really precise but in case of any mistake you can wipe away quickly since you have your top coat down as a protective barrier. All done!
 
Hope you enjoyed this really simple manicure and be sure to check out the beautylish website for some more inspiring designs!
Happy Delicate Designing!
XOXO

      Now that I think about it, didn't I meet you on Beautylish? lol. Yes you should try it, really simple. Oh forget to say you don't want to use too much of this product, try to get the swirls in one go instead of going over them multiple times since the polish tend to crack if you use too much!

      Honestly dawn, I was just a regular old polish gal but since i starting trying out nail art, I really like it! But if you realize from my previous nail art posts, I'm still just doing simple art, nothing elaborate yet! I wanna see yours

Revlon Sculpting Blush Palette in Pink

I have never been so disappointed in a Revlon product before… until now! Maybe I chose the wrong colour for my skin-tone but there are so many other things about this palette that makes me think I should have bought some more lip butters instead. Let’s start with what I do love about the palette. It’s simple black compact that has the same sleek look as the other Revlon photo-ready items. I find a highlighter, contour shade and blush in one palette is a great idea too. Having more blush colour in terms of quantity with smaller sections for the highlighter and contour makes perfect sense since I will use more of the blush anyway. The colours as they appear in the pan look perfectly coordinated to work with each other. You get a small brush with soft bristles in your kit to ensure you can just pop this in your bag and you’re off.  In the sunlight Now here is where it all goes downhill like Jack and Jill with their pail of water. Let’s start with the swatches which made me think twic

Marble Hearts: BCD Nail Art Challenge (Day 13)

Today's challenge utilizes the technique of dry water marbling to create your pattern. I'm doing a twist of it but doing a needle drag i.e using a needle or any fine point for just a smidgen of swirl to the colours used.
