Happy New Tiger Year!

Happy new year to all my wonderful readers and all the Nail-Art Lovers.
I am so excited, to start the year of the Tiger, according to the Chinese Calendar.
Tiger is the same as Cat just not domesticated, and i love cats so much.
I made 2 tigers manicures, first i made orange one, but when i realized that it is the year of the white tiger, and had nit done again tonight.
So, i hope you ll like manicures and have a cool holiday.

VEGAS BABY!

These nails are too fun! This is a glitter called "wild aces". On the ring fingers I used fimo polymer clay playing cards that I got from oaktreedollshouseminiatures.com
These nails will bring good luck at the casino! Go gamble and have some fun! P.S. have a drink for me!

China Glaze Metallics

Hello Dear nail-Art Lovers.
China Glaze marketing representative was kind enough to send me some China Glaze Metallic polishes for review - that was some kind of wonderful Christmas Miracle for me, because this is not often that companies send me polishes.
So here are those adorable colors that i have got - Adore, Millennium and My long time dream Sci-Fi . Where is no much need to say anything about formula - it is perfect as always. Colors are very opaque and look wonderful even with one coat. Perfect for Konad - as a base and as a Stamping polish as well. I also checked out, just for my own curiosity if China Glaze polishes are available in Russia, and i was pleasantly surprised that it it. it would cost about 10$ a bottle, which is a normal price for professional nail polish in Russia.
So here are the pictures and some description

1. Adore - this Metallic polish is from "Romatique" collection, but at first glance looks very similar to the one from the more recent Khrome collection. It is light green metallic with the touch of blue. The color is rich and beautiful - and aplication is really smooth.


Here is Metallic Muse from Kromes for comparability - as you can see it is also very beautiful color, but less bright when Adore. and i would say a little more minty.


2. Millennium - i would call it one of the best pure chrome metallic on the market. It is very competitive even against special Mirror effect polishes, because it shines, sparkle and reflect as a real metal. Metallics are long lasting hits and a part of any nail polish collection

3. Sci-Fi - this one is also from "Kromes". I wanted this polish ever since kromes came out - it is very intricate and provocative. I woudl call it a lacquer with the surprise. It is a silver metallic with the very gentle touch of lilack - very beautiful and very unique color.


I hope you liked this review, and it helped you to know more about China Glaze metallics

The whole true about the goose :)

Some of my friend noticed that the goose was a little to orange when it supposed to be, and asked me to check out if Marshal-Cat is still arround, so here is the whole true about the goose, all reviled
First - Good Bye Kiss

Second - loading into the oven


Third - the result :)

SPARKLES

On these nails we went all out! This is acrylic in nebula at the tip then I faded a glitter from sparklesnailproducts.com called masquerade ball at the smile line. Then, I added silver dots and black and silver stars. Is there such a thing as too cute?! :)

This is my cute sister in law! She is so nice she just goes along with whatever I want to do. I used my own purple and then a glitter from sparkles nail products again. Just an FYI for all my clients I just ordered 12 more glitters from their website.

If you are a reader of my blog you will recognize this color nebula with a little disco ball action at the smile line. It's obvious that I am going through a disco ball phase!

These nails are done with my new favorite glitter called disco balls and one of my own blues that I mixed myself. I added little silver dots and stars all over.

On these nails I used a glitter from sparkles nail products called blue diamonds and faded another one of their glitters called disco balls. LOVE their products! P.S. Click directly on this photo to see the detail of the glitter.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

The first thing I did on these nails was acrylic in nova near the tip. Then I used a glitter called disco balls from sparklesnailproducts.com. I mixed it with clear acrylic first and added it near the smile line blending it up into the blue. I painted a snowflake on the ring fingers.

These nails are a super cute chunky blue glitter called stratosphere. For this time of year we just had to add the snowflakes.

This color is called "black hole." I added pink and silver stars to it. I used my migi nail art pen to write "2010" on the ring fingers. Happy New Year!

On these nails I used my favorite color nebula and then added some silver sparkle strips near the tip and a silver star for a new years theme.

These are silver nails with gold stars.

Marry Christmas!!!

Marry Christmas to each of you my sweet Nail-Art Lovers!
Thank you very much for reading my blog and i wish you all the best and to have luck in everything you do.
Here is my little present, i finally came up with the Christmas Mani . So here is my last minute Christmas manicure for this season.
I used sponge to create effect of spray on the edge with gold polish, i am not sure i captured it on camera, but it looks really cool in real life - like a real ball on the Christmas Tree.

Hand Painted Nails

I finally got some good paint, and i ll tell you - it really make s a difference.
For this design i used Mimery Polycolor paint - and it s a blast!
I still have plenty of room to improve my painting skills, but i think this one turned out quite well, i even made right hand too.

Christmas Angels

Hello Dear Nail-Art Lovers .
As i promised trying to catch up on the Christmas manicures. This cute angel manicure is inspired by the "Day 5: Angelic with blue and Silver" posted by Doo-Polishing. I could not resist to have those angels on my own Nails. Thank you Doo for great idea, and i hope all of you are not disappointing with my execution of this manicure.

It s the most wonderful nails of the year...

I mean not really, i am just trying to get my holiday mode.
I know i should have already made so Christmas manicures by now, and i promise to catch up on it this week, but for today i am sharing with you some beautiful manicure too.
I think this mani look quite festive and appropriate for holidays too - may be like a new year manicure.
Yesterday we had our annual meeting with Russian girls who lives around here - where was 7 of us this year , and this was our 3rd meeting. We had a lot of fun and everybody loved my nails as usually.

HO HO HO

On these nails I custom mixed a red acrylic with chunks of sparkly glitter. I also added silver "tinsel" at the tips. The ring fingers have a fimo clay Santa. I used my migi nail art pen to write Ho, Ho, Ho across the other fingers. Merry Christmas!

On these nails I painted a string of Christmas lights with my migi nail art pens.

These nails have a fimo clay Christmas Tree on the ring fingers from kennickkreations.com. My client loves stars so we added white and silver stars on all the other fingers.

These nails have a red and green smile line fade. I also added candy canes. I know I've done a lot of candy canes but hey they are just so cute I can't help it!

On these nails I painted a thick and thin white stripe to coordinate with the fimo candy cane on the ring fingers.

On these nails I faded silver up from the smile line and painted white snowflakes.

ICY Manicure

I seriousely love this manicure, actually wore it for few last days, turned out really great.
I used some chipped blue film that i got from Sally Beauty, for the icy effect. The chips are more for acrylic or gel nail, and it was pretty big chips, so i had to cut it smaller.
I try to come up with more Christmas manicures, but my head is really to busy right now with school stuff as it is end of the semester ,so still can not get any holidays spirit.

Here is left hand, forgot tu put the glitter coat
