Gradation Nails

Some idea for short nails.
Hot pink gradation and a couple of nails with flat pale pink for the base and different shapes of rhinestones. Gradation definitely makes short nails look longer.

They are suitable for everyday nails (not too crazy as my nails!) yet so unique.





And here is just additional flat art I did on her toes.
She wanted some accents on her thumbs so I added some flowers:) Even a little thing like this makes a big difference.



Estimate time : 1h

Price:
Gel overlay $35
French (gradation) $10
Rhinestones $0.50 x12

$51---15%off-->$43

Gel Toes

Here are girly gel toes.
She didn't have any ideas what to get, so I decided the designs.
I matched pink with her bangs which was pretty bright pink.
I used glitters and mylars then put 3d roses.

Very gorgeous and girly:)



Estimate time : 1h

Price :
Gel toe French (glitter) $35
3D flower $3 x2
Rhinestone $0.5 x2

Cherry

Here are some cherry ideas.



I always like to add sparkles, so I draw some cherries with acrylic paint then attached some rhinestones.
The base is simple black French.

Estimate time : 2h

Simple French with Pink Flowers

These are the nails of my customer who came this morning.
It's been three weeks since last time she got her nails done by me (last article of her nails), and I was kind of worried about her nails but I was so happy to see them because her nails were perfect!
No chipping, no lifting, just got new growth.

She wanted to change designs and wanted something simple this time.
And she already had her idea so I just followed it and made her design.

And here we are, nice simple French nails with sheer glitter and pastel pink 3D flowers.
Nice and simple, but if she wants she can always come back and I can add some designs or 3Ds anytime ;)





Those who want to add something interesting on your existing nails, come to me and I can add designs.

My Melody's friend Piano

Here. This pink sheep is My Melody's friend Piano.
She is so fluffy and cute.
The bear on my pinky nail was going to be Rilakkuma but I made his face too round so it turned into a normal bear. lol




On my right hand nails, I broke one nails by accident so I changed designs and shapes.
I wanted to try oval (almost pointed) nails so I filed off the corners and made them rounder.
Actually, as you can see in many magazines, the popular nail shape is shifting from square to oval in Japan.
And I found that round shape is much easier to handle. I still like square off nails though...or maybe I will get use to see oval shaped nails?? hmm..
I can't do a complicated designs on my right hand because I am right handed but I really like the mushroom on my middle finger nail.
Lots of glitters and mylars as usual:)



And here are my new toe nails.
Basic (well at least this is my basic) leopard patterns and pink bows.
Girly and Princessy.

My melody

My melody is a popular character in Japan.
Her looks and personality are so cute. If you are interested, look it up on You Tube and you can see her moving and talking:)

And my nail, I love how it turned out. It was kind of my first attempt to make 3D My melody but I gotta say it was a huge success.


I made her eyes a little bit too small, but still looks like it.
Now I gotta make her friends Kuromi and Piano. lol

Hmmm.. making 3D is fun:)

Glittery Bow

I am recently changing 3D designs on my nails.
Colorful Spring design to Kawaii Japanese decorative ones:)
I feel like a princess, cute, pink nails.







I draw some lace with acrylic paint and then put a glittery pink bow.
Totally romantic and cute!
Then I put more glittery hearts here and there. Oh my, they are soooo glittery and almost hurt my eyes!





Aaaand, how do you like this one?
This doesn't look like princess but I just wanted to practice peacock design and something Summery.
I don't think this one is going to last so long because I really want to put 3D on top which will hide the design.

Rock' n Roll

Here are the nails I did today.
Aren't they different and fun? It took me like 2h and a half but it looks worth the time.
I love the girly skull with bling eyes. It's even got a red bow on her head:)
It was super fun to just think about what to put on the nails to look Punk Rock style.
I put stars, hearts, red rose, black rose and a skull. What else can you think of???

Another Set of Summery Nails

On Saturday, I did another set of Summery nails.
She kind of wanted silverly colored nails with blue flowers on them at first, but she really liked the one I did on my last customer so she went with the same one as hers.
I would really have to make samples so the customers can see what I can do and imagine how they are going to look like.
I'm sure silver with blue flowers would look nice too:)
