Duochrome Herringbone

Hi guys!

I am in LOVE with these nails! I always love the way duo chrome polishes look over black and it just pops with this design, so lovely <3

I started with a base of Wet n Wild Black Creme. When it dried I applied Herringbone Stencils from Stick It! Nail Vinyls and sponged China Glaze Unpredictable over top. I removed the stencils while the polish was still wet and sealed it all in with some Seche Vite to finish it off!



I'm serious guys, the pictures don't even do this mani justice! 

What do you think?

Thanks loves :)

The Blobbicure

Hi guys!

Blobbicures have been getting crazy popular lately so I thought it was about time for me to try my hand at it ;) If you don't know what a blobbicure is, it's basically a "blob"-esque design that is created when you use a thick layer of base polish and start adding blobs of a second polish on top while your base is still wet. The blobs spread out on your nails and give you some crazy cool designs. You can see what I mean below ;)

I started off with a base of Wet n Wild Black Creme. Then I blobbed on some China Glaze Unpredictable while my base was still wet. I sealed everything in with some Seche Vite and that was it! So simple right?



I really love how easy blobbicures are to create and the final product is just too freaking cool. I have SO many different color combinations in my head I can't way to revisit this technique so be on the look out ;)

Also keep an eye on my Instagram and YouTube Channel for tutorials on this look!

Thanks loves :)

Vroom vroom!

Hey chickies

I was seriously lacking some nail inspiration a little while ago so I decided to use some outside sources and find out what they wanted to see on my nails. My boyfriend came up with a great idea... he just recently picked up a new motorcycle and thought it would be cool if I did some nails inspired by them. Now the bike he just picked up is pretty cool, it has chameleon paint on it that changes from emerald green to a pretty navy blue. It also has this silver crackle paint on the top. This gave me like 237489345649 ideas but I'm pretty happy with the one I decided on.

I tried to find a polish as close to the chameleon paint as I could get.... turns out I didn't have an exact match but the one I chose will have to do ;) 

To start this design a painted a base of Pure Ice Silver Mercedes. Then I created a ruffian look using China Glaze Unpredictable. I took Bundle Monster's place BM-208 and stamped with Pure Ice Silver Mercedes to give it that crackle-y effect. I top coated with some Poshe and was done! 







*trying* to catch the shift here.... didn't really work -_- lol

It came out much lighter then I intended... I think if I layered CG Unpredictable over a black base it would have given me better results. But oh well I still quite liked these nails and the boyfriend loved them ;) LOL

And bonus picture!! Here's his new bike. 



Snazzy!!! ;) Lol!
What's your favorite duochrome polish? 
Thanks chickies! :)
