Nail Art – Glairdees

Hello everybody! I haven’t been painting my nails for about the past 2 months as I’ve been really busy with work and packing to move(my family is moving on the 27th aug!!!). But I made some time for something really exciting!

That’s right! I had the honours of participating in this year’s PP blog fest! 😀 PP is one of my favourite polish brand and I’m really happy to be doing this. This year we were given 1 polish to swatch and 2 other polishes+nail vinyls to do nail art with. Really challenging as no other form of nail art is accepted, nail art should only be done with nail vinyls!

Okay so here’s part 1!

The polish that I was given to swatch is Darcy! For those of you who don’t know, Darcy was formally Ozotic Pro 623 and is re-released under PP. Darcy is a lovely black scattered holo with a smooth as butter formula! A thin coat and another to touch up is all it needs! For those who prefer painting thicker coats, you’ll be delighted to know that it is possible for it to be a one coater!! 😀 Don’t you think Darcy on the nails gives you an effortless galaxy?

And now, unto part 2!

For part 2, I was given Lizzie(re-release of Ozotic Pro 606), Fairy Gloss and straight nail vinyls from http://nailvinyls.com/ I had a hard time thinking what should I do because this is not a colour combi I will usually choose! I decided to go with something simple, time is not exactly on my side so I don’t have time for more complicated designs! In the end, I love it! I was inspired by candy canes for this cause the colour combi looks really sweet to me and I’m glad it turned out lovely. This design was also made much easier with the help of nail vinyls. They were really easy to use and were sticky enough to stay on the nails but not too sticky that it took my base colour off when I peel it!

To end off, I’m really thankful to be given this opportunity to participate in this year’s blog/insta fest. Thank you piCture pOlish!!!!

Hello girls (& boys)! I’m back with nail art for you today. 🙂
Have you people tried the popular app that has been making huge waves everywhere?

THIS. is the app that is driving people crazy everywhere. It’s a simple game really, you control the bird by tapping on the screen. One tap= one flap. The objective of this game is to pass through as many pipes as possible. Sounds easy doesn’t it? But it’s more challenging when you actually try it, you have to get the momentum going so you wouldn’t crash into the (damn) pipes.

For those of you who have the app installed- good for you! (or not if it drives you nuts lol) But for those who want to download it now, I’m sorry. The game has been taken off stores and the reason- I’ve no idea.

ANYWAY, back to the main topic- nail art. Seeing that flappy bird is so popular (and it seems easy to paint) I have to attempt some flappy bird nail art!

So first, I started with painting my nails blue to mimic the background. This stunner here is Zoya Robyn- 2 coats with top coat. Super gorgeous bright blue that is easy to paint, major love. But note that this colour does stain slightly so double up on the base coat! The stain came off my nails after half a day though so it’s not a major turn off.

I paint my nail art using acrylic paint if any of you are wondering. Much easier to control and you can just scratch it off. The stupid bird took me 3 tries!!!!! This is my 2nd try and I think it looks retarded. I overestimated my ability and drew everything too small. -.-

Finally, on the 3rd try my flappy bird looks okay! *wipes sweat off forehead*

TA DAAAA~ The final look with top coat. So so glad I managed to not make the bird look retarded.

Here’s another shot with my thumb! In case you thought I didn’t have a thumb. HA.
