Nail Art Challenge - A Trip Down Nail Art Lane: Day 5

Eeeeek! running very late today :( technically it is day 6 again. The last challenge I did I never finished, so I am really stoked with how I am still sort of up to date most of the time with this one!. Day 5 of Moonshine and Sunlight's nail art challenge is "recreate your favourite nail art". I had to have a bit of a think about one. I really like the drip effect on nails and have done ombre slime and glitter paint drips before. I combined these ideas and ended up with glitter slime dripping down my nails. This is just one of my favourite designs as I really cannot pin point a specific manicure as I have many favourites. 

These are my first drip nails I did! My nails look a bit funny (shape) and the matte looks streaky.

Nail Art Challenge - A Trip Down Nail Art Lane: Day 4

Day 4! Phew going fast! the theme today is "first floral design". As any beginning nail artist my first dabble with flowers was good old daisies! Simple, pretty and cute.

Here are my first daisies as you can see my nails are VERY short. I used the back of a pin method for my dots. Since then I can paint better, I have the appropriate tools and I know what a good topcoat is!

These are the reinvented ones! 

Nail Art Challenge - A Trip Down Nail Art Lane: Day 2

Technically this is not being posted on day two... but due to technical difficulties it had to be posted today :(

Anyhoo the theme for day two of this challenge is to create nail art "with your last purchased polish of 2013 and first of 2014."   So my last purchase of 2013 was Iri by Star Kin and my first purchase of 2014 was O.P.I Houston We Have A Purple. These two polishes were perfect together :)

Okay so my design was fairly simple but effective - triangles!  :) 

for this design I used stripping tape... this is an area of development for me, as I nearly always rip off polish with it! So I was really happy with how these came out. 

Houston We Have A Purple is such a delicious jelly!! YUM and paired with the gorgeous Iri was the perfect mani. Here is a close up shot of Iri because it is so pretty ^_^

Don't forget to link your post to Moonshine and Sunlight if you are participating in this challenge or just go have a peep at whats happening!
