Gradation nails ( by hands)

As i bet any of you i have quite a collection of polishes , with the bad level opacity.Those are type of polishes that takes more then 2 layers to get any solid color, but even fter hours of drying all those tons of layers you still can see what is going on under the polish .
Now here is a bright idea how to tern whose whose useless polishes into the powerful nail-art tool.Those polishes are just perfect to do the graduation on your nails, so i hope you didn't throw all of them away.
I played a little with this idea and here are some result.




You can easily create the graduation by following those steps:
1. Find the right polish, it must be very transparent, polishes without glitter or chips works the best.
2. Put the really thick layer of the transparent polish on the entire nail, and let it dry just a litle
3.Put the next layer on the 1/2 of nail, starting from the middle and going up, let it dry just a little again.
3. Put the 3 layer of polish on the 1/3 nail.
4. The best result you get if you use a glitter top coat, however you can use a regular one too.
As a top coat i used the one i have got from Brook "Colorama top coat" by maybelline

Checkereds - HOT!

Ooooo! Hot hot checkered nails! Chose this design from nailmax and modified it till it doesn't look like the chosen design anymore! Hehehe. Almost died doing the fine lines and all but this beauty is all worth it! Love you babe - for trusting your nails to me and being so chatty and nice!



Looks slightly punk/gothic/casino-ish/schoolgirl...etc!
You know, I was having doubts bout how design would turn out while I was painting it... cos it started off looking like an indonesia flag, then table cloth (I'm not kidding cos she thought so too! haha), then... bit by bit.. they turn out really pretty!


Her idea of adding black bows to complete the whole look.
Am loving this and every moment of creating it! :)

Gel marbellising with red and pink

Just did this set of gel nails today using Christrio Gelacquer. Marbellising with a bright pink and a light pink color. The more I look at this set of nails, the more it grows on me. I kinda like it! It's very subtle and it looks like some kind of art on your fingers! :)

Simple mess

Oh yeah! i am almost back on the stamping marker.
As you may mentioned from the pictures here, i used to have a stamping kit, but left it in russia , because my friend wanted it so bad, so i decided that i may get another one here. But, you know all this economy stuff.. so haven't got one yet, but i was struggling so much without it. i mean no creativity can really replace good old stamping, especially when you ahve so little time for nails.
So yetoday my second excitement was gettign a new stmping kit.
I have got a chep one from e-bay, and i am not recomending it at all, plates are so poor, and polishes dont work at all, very transperent, you cant see it on any color. And moreover the colors i have got are not the colors i inteneted to have according to the sellers picture. But on the other hand it worth trying,m because it only was like 5 buks.




But where is another one comming. With more plates and polishes, so i will only keep stamp and scraper from this one.
I wanted to see if this cheap one will work, so i can tell my friends get it or not.
Since polishes wont work, i used regular polish and surprizingly it worked pretty good.
So here is my pink mess.

Thank you, Brook
