Hellooooo...

You guys still remember I have a nail tutorial on how to re-design your chipped nail so you can keep your nail color for a little longer!? :P

Today we are going to do another style and again with your chipped nail or "shrink" nail... well it happens to be quite obvious to me that about 2-3 days, my freshly done nail start to shrink a little bit (well actually I know the reasons... as i haven't put on my top coat ... :P Lazy me!!! )

Okay, back to the theme today. Chipped nail re-do #2 ^^

So let me take you from this...

to this!!!

Tools:
On my nail, I have already apply 1 coat of base coat and 1 coat of light grey color.
Sorry guys, not sure about the light grey color is from which brand but this color is gorgeous.

Already on my nail:
1) Nutra nail - Base coat & Ridge filler + Green tea
2) Light nudy grey color

Other tools to prepare:
3) Add on top up color of your choise
I am choosing a brown shimmer color this time.
4) PritiNYC - #705 2-in-1 Top / Base coat
5) Scotch tape / any stationery tape
6) Scissors
7) Tweezer ... optional

Video demonstration:

Steps:
1) Cut tape in sharp square with straight edges
To cut off tape into small square that can fit your nail. Prefer to use scissors so you can easily create sharp straight edges

2) Cover nail bed with the square shape tape
With the corner placing in the middle of your nail along nail bed

3) Push to make sure there is no gap in between
Push the tape as close and fit to the nail bed as possible as to prevent any gap create in between. So later on when you add on polish, the nail polish won't leak through those spaces.

4) Simply paint on your top up color

5) Peel off the tape
*This step need to be done before the nail polish dry. You can use a tweezer for easy handling.

6) Wait for 15 minutes... to let it dry completely.

7) Add top coat to seal your design.
Generous amount of top coat is added and don't forget the tip area. It can prevent your nail design from chipping again :P

8) Wait until it dry completely.

Yeah! And you're done.!!! Nice and easy.
Looks like you spend a long time doing it but it actually takes you last than half an hour.

Nail : Colorful splash

Hi guys~

Today we are going to do this really cool splash of color nail art. ^^
Want to know how to do this, well it actually quite easy to achieve as long as you have the right tools.

Preparation:

1) Base coat
Nutra nail - Base coat & Ridge filler + Green tea

2) Base color
Bandi - #SH302 Light Violet

3) 3 other nail polish color of your choice
i BYS - Matte Purple #N240
ii Color Plus - #888 Gossip Column
iii Depend - #Nr 034

4) Top coat
GOSH - French Manicure #F3 Top Coat

Tools:
a) Straws
b) Paper
c) Tape

Video demonstration:

Steps:

1) Apply base coat & wait dry.

2) Apply 1 coat of base color & wait dry (again :P)

3) Wrap around your nail with tape to cover the area as we will get really messy afterwards. ^^ Simply take a long tape and wrap around the two sides of your nail and a shorter tape for the nail bed area.

4) Open all the nail polishes cap

5) Get your paper in place, dip a few drops of nail polish on the paper

6) With your straw, dip the tip of the straw into the polish and then just blow over your nail. Yup... just that easy. ^^

7) Follow with the other 2 color. Remember to use the sheer nail polish at the very last and while changing nail polish color. Cut off the tip of the straw otherwise you will mixing the color.

8) Remove the tape and clean up the edges with nail polish remover

9) Wait dry ... (This part is very important as the nail polish will be kind of thick to work with in case you don't let it dry completely)

10) Apply clear top coat to seal your design. Dont' forget the tip as well, it can prevent your nail design from chipping.

Then you're done!!!
Really easy huh~ ^^
