Nail Design - Golden Heart

Hello! :)
Here's another Valentine's design :D
It's actually the "base" of what I actually intended, but thought you'd might appreciate the bit simpler version. I kind of like this better than what I made after, so I'm glad I took pictures before finishing.

I didn't do so well on the gradient though, haven't done them much so need to start practicing. I found it hard to make them as similar as possible because I had to blend the dark and light pink a bit together before transferring to the sponge, because they didn't blend well together otherwise.



What I used to make these

Base Coat:

- OPI Nail Envy - Dry and Brittle

Nail Polish: 
- OPI - Mod About you
- OPI - Honey Ryder
- Jordana - 670 Love Bug

Top Coat: 
- Seche Vite - Dry Fast

Other:
- Dotting Tool
- Sponge
- Needle

Hello!
So I'm a league of legends player and the moment I saw Sona (my main) where one of the two getting the valentines skin this year, I just had to make a nail design inspired by it! So excited :D
Before I show you the design, I'll just add this splash art of Sona, just to show you what I where inspired by :)



Isn't it gorgeous? That's why I had to make these valentines nails inspired by it ^^

Nail design - Accent Heart

Hello! :)
We're getting close to Valentines day, so I'm going to try to make some valentines inspired nails before that. Hopefully I will be able to give you some ideas for what to wear on valentines day :D

Noticed the bad and faded side of the heart? That's because the tape I used was quite sticky so I opened up that side, so it would be easy to peel of. I thought it would be fine since I used a sponge to apply the polish, but it snuck under there after all. The tape I used where apparently "Tip Guides" from BPS, but they where a bit small for tips xD  I'd recommend getting some good nail vinyls instead.





What I used to make these

Base Coat: 
- OPI - Nail envy "Dry and brittle"

Nail polishes: 
- Jordana - 670 Love Bug
- OPI - You're Such a Budapest
- OPI - Alpine Snow

Top Coat:
- Seche Vite - Dry fast

Other:
- Heart tape
- Makeup sponge







Although the heart looks a bit off, I thought it was very cute :) It's not that bad IRL, but you know cameras... Catching every flaw!
It's also actually not a finished look, but I wanted to share this simple version before I start over complicating it.

January Nails

Hello!
Every month I collect all my nail art from that month into one post, just to look back at what I've made!
I love to look back at what I've done and how I've progressed. This way it's just so quick and easy to find them all, and to know when they're made :)

Here's the few designs I've made this month:


I couldn't make as many designs as I hoped for this month, so I'm a bit disappointed by that. But at least I have three! That is the absolute minimum I'm going for :)

I suppose my favorite of this month, is number 1 ^^ I would go for 3 because it's girly which is more my style, but It's just waaaay to much sparkle for my taste.
Wow, I just noticed that this month where all sparkly nails! I'm really not that into sparkle, so that's kind of a surprise.

Well, these where the nails of January! Now I'm excited to see what I can come up with for February ^^

What do you think of my designs this month? :)
Which one is your favorite?


Nail Design - Feminine glitter nails

Hello!
Another, but the last post for today! Just wanted to post all the nail arts I've made January before the 1st, so that they will show in the correct Archive file :)

Noticed I've used pictures with the watermarks for my other blog, but I will change that for my newer posts, don't bother to go through the process of finding the perfect pictures again xD But from now on it will be the correct ones, since I will add watermark to both at the same time ^^


What I used to make these

Base Coat:
OPI Nail Envy - Sensitive and Peeling

Nail Polishes:
OPI - Make Light of the Situation

Top Coat:
Seche Vite - Dry Fast

Other: 
Water Decals

Nail Design - Egyptian Goddess of the sky

Hello!
Really wanted to use my new polish "Give me Space" by OPI, and I figured I could make these nails inspired by the Egyptian Goddess of the sky "Nut".

I'm so fascinated by Ancient Egypt, it's kinda like a fantasy world in my head! I'm very aware of it being a terrible time to live in, slavery, diseases, poverty and much more. But the architecture is just sooo beautiful and the mythology is so interesting and I love their art. I'm just so intrigued!
Sorry for getting of topic now with this being about nail art, but kinda wanted to mention that I have made a Minecraft Texture pack in Ancient Egyptian style! Just while we're at the subject ;) Hope there are any Miners or fellow crafters here seeing this! Needs more work, but can't believe how many downloads, favs and diamonds it have gotten xD

Alright, now back on track! Here's the nails I made inspired by Nut:


What I used to make these

Base Coat:
OPI Nail Envy - Sensitive and Peeling

Nail Polishes:
OPI - Give me Space
Essie - Sand Tropez

Top Coat:
Seche Vite - Dry Fast

Other: 
Nail art brush
- Black and Gold Acrylic Paint
Red Sharpie










I'm honestly not that satisfied with these, could've done so much better! But I where trying to film, and that ended in a very complicated position for me to paint xD I also didn't have the best brushes as I've been very bad to take care of the ones I had.. I've received new ones in the mail now, so let's see how long they will last!
And honestly I got very lazy after much trial and error in trying to come up with a design before getting the idea to make Nut, so I didn't put as much effort in it as I normally would. I even used a sharpie to create the blob of a lip!

What do you think of this design? :)
Could you be able to wear this?
Anyone as fascinated by Ancient Egypt as me?
Do you play Minecraft?

Welcome to my nail art blog!

Hello! I am Janne, a 22 year old girl from Norway :)
One of my biggest hobbies is Nail art, so that's why  I started my Norwegian nail art blog in 2013! I thought that it was about time to go international so that's why I'm starting this blog :) I've actually had this blog since 2013 as well, but now I'm really gonna do it!

I'm also planning to start with youtube! It probably wont be so often, but I will post a link here on my blog whenever I make a new video! :)
I will put a link to my channel and other accounts in the side menu ^^

Here is my favorite nail designs of 2015, just to preview what I can do:

I'm just gonna apologize ahead for my terrible English now and in the future, but I hope you'll bear with me! Also sorry about the bad blog design, but I will edit it little by little, so eventually it will hopefully look nice xD

Really hope you will enjoy and follow my blog, and hopefully I will see you in my next post :D
Bye for now!
