Spiders on my nails!!! SmART Nails + Giveaway - part 1

This week I'm showing you a few designs I made with SmART Nails; super easy to use nail stencils that can make every manicure look like you spent a lot of time and effort into doing your nails. '

I will be posting manicures with SmART Nails every day for a week and you can also enter the giveaway every day (read more about the giveaway on the bottom of the post).

I used the following polishes for this manicure:

Index- and ringfinger: OPI Liquid Sand 'Stay The Night'

Middlefinger: W7 matte black

Pinky: China Glaze 'Thunderbird'

I know Halloween was a couple of weeks ago, but wouldn't this make a great Halloween mani?????

It was as easy as painting your nails, wait for them to dry and then use the stencils to add the spiders to it.

Pictures above show the stencils on the nails.

W7 - Meteorite with distressed nails / brush stroke manicure

The distressed nails aka brush stroke manicures have been on the blogs for quite a while, but this is my first attempt.
I chose colors that matched W7 Meteorite: metallic gold, kobalt blue + black and white for the distressed effect.

W7 Meteorite is gold shimmer with kobalt blue holographic glitter. On the pictures you see more visible nail line than in real life. This is 3 thin easy coats.

The distressed nails / brush stroke nails are so much easier to do than I expected! You just watch the tutorial by Chalkboard Nails and that is all you need to get started. I used the same polishes on each distressed nail: creme blue, metallic gold, creme white, creme black. For my middle finger I used the creme blue for the basecolor and for my ringfinger I used the metallic gold as basecolor.

Picture above does not do the W7 meteorite justice. In real life the VNL was not that much visible. I chose to show you this picture because the distressed nails / brush stroke mani showed up very well on this picture.

Thank you so much for watching!

Have a great day! :-)

Love, Inge (PolishSis)

Golden Oldie Thursday - Splatter manicure with China Glaze 'OMG' and China Glaze 'Harmony'

I decided to try the splatter manicure. It looked very easy, I've seen a million good splatter manicures on the web, so I grabbed some straws and huffed and puffed the polish on my nails.

Well, it was not as easy as I thought it would be. You have to be very precise in the amount of polish you use; if you use too much you get a big ugly blob of polish on your nails. If you use too little, the polish sticks to the straw and doesn't come on your nails, no matter how hard you blow into the straw. 

Polishes used:

W7 Matt Black 

China Glaze - Harmony

China Glaze OMG

Hema Matte topcoat

Am I glad with the result? Hmmm, not so much, but my first time could have been worse ;-)
I do like the randomness of it, not sure yet if this is something I would wear as a full mani though.
