Nails of the day: Blue Water ombre nails!

Posted on 14 luglio 2013


Hi everyone! :)

I share with you one of my favourite nail art! 

It's a blue water degradé-ombre nail art and I do it quite often because it takes me just 4-5 minutes to do it and the effect is amazing!

You need:

base coat, a deep blue nail polish and a light blue one, some flitters and a top coat!

Use a little sponge and put a bit of deep blue on its top then start apply it on the lower part of the nails, a bit over the smiling line, it's not a proper french ;) then do the same thing with the lighter colour, apply it where the blue one fades and reach the top of your nail !
Then apply an extra thin coat of top coat and apply flitters on the central part of the nail.
Last step: apply top coat, better if you have a gel look one to give more volume and extra shine to the nails ;)

Ombre, part II: Lips & Nails!

Posted on 21 aprile 2013

Ombre Lips & Nails
Follow me @Polyvore 
A few weeks ago I wrote a post about the ombre trend but it was mostly dedicated to dresses and a little bit on eyeshadows :)
Considering the big success of this trend I want to focus my attention on lips and nails!
I think that ombre lips are amazing! They enlight your smile and they make it even more original!
Limecrime is my favourite make up brand at the moment!! (http://www.limecrimemakeup.com/)
I love the nuances of its lipsticks! From frozen mint to light peach!
The same for the nails, lovely and unconventional colors!
The ads of the brand and the packaging of the products are magical, everything look as if it was a fairytale!  


I was talking about Limecrime because its lipstick are perfect to create the ombre lips effect! 
Here is a 3-colors ombre:
:

SHORT TUTORIAL:

Use "D'Lilac" lipstick on the centre on the lips and than apply "Cosmopop" on the left corner and "No she didn't" on the right corner; then smudge the point in which the colors meet to make your mouth appear unique!

Than the nails, here are the nail laquers!

(From top left to right: Once in a Blue Mousse, Pastelchio, Lavendairy, Crema de Limon, Peaches♥Cream, parfait Day, Milky Ways )

And these are the ombre nails! 
(Perfectly matching with the lips ;)!!!)


SHORT TUTORIAL:
As shown in the set above you just need a little sponge (the foundation one is perfect!).
Draw 2 lines of "Parfait Day" nail laquer 
 on the sponge and then 2 other lines of "Lavendairy" just below!
Apply with a delicate touch on your nail(don't press too much!) and...Done!
It's not difficult and the effect is amazing!!!

Try and post me a pic of your work!:)
