Nail Art: Cupcakes!

Alright my lovelies!


Today I have a sweet treat for you! How many of you lacqueristas love cupcakes?? I know I do!

Before I get to that yummy goodness, let me share with you my nails from yesterday! Also I used that Zoya Jolene in a girly mani like I promised! :)

*BEWARE* Lots of pictures!

Day 5: Cartoon Theme

So for today's challenge, I did my most favorite anime/cartoon ever.

SAILOR MOON!

I love love love Sailor Moon. She was and still is my idol growing up. I love her more in the books than the anime because the anime does not show great character development. Naoko Takeuchi shows Sailor Moon mature gracefully with each novel. Although, the anime did have some good moments. HERE is a link to one of my favorite Sailor Moon movies.

Anyway, on to my nails. I used a lot of colors. So I'll start with the picture first.

Nail Art: Veteran's Day

Omg! It has been almost a whole week since I last posted. I am sooo sorry! School and work have been piling up like crazy.

Anyway, on to my nails.

It is a little late, but these are my Veteran's Day nails. I used Island Girl's Pineapple Plantation as my base and for the stars. I used Orly's Royal Navy for the flag part and Sinful Colors Nail Art's My Day for the stripes.

A little way to show some support to the veterans.

Day 30: Inspired by a Tutorial

So I followed a tutorial today.

The tutorial I used can be found here. I thought it was super cute.

I used Claire's Cosmic from the Starstruck collection as my base.I absolutely love this collection. Anyway, for the penguin part I used Finger Paint's Silver Sculpture. I used Sinful Colors Nail Art's Time Off for the Eyes and Sally Hansen Extreme Wear's Mellow Yellow for the nose and feet. 

Day 28: Inspired by a Flag

So here is a forewarning. My nails are a little chippy today. I forgot to take a picture of hem before I carved my pumpkins.

Oh well.

Anyway...On to my nails. I used a lot of colors. Island Girl's Island Plantation and Big Island Volcano, Orly's Royal Navy, Hard Candy's Fishnet, Wet N Wild's SaGreena the Teenage Witch,Sally Hansen's Extreme Wear's Mellow Yellow, Sinful Color's Cinderella, and Sinful Colors Nail Art's My Day, Orange Alert, and Time Off.



I couldn't decide which flag to do, so all I 10 different flags!

Day 27: Inspired by Artwork

So today is inspired by artwork.

I was going to do Monet's Water Lilies or Van Gogh's Starry Night, but I'm running short on time. So instead I did a Mondrian. 

I used Island Girl's Pineapple Plantation as my base. I don't know if you can tell, but this is my favorite white. For the black lines I used Sinful Colors Nail Art's Time Off. for the colors I used Sally Hansen Extreme Wear's Mellow Yellow, Essie's E! Live From The Red Carpet, and Orly's Royal Navy.

Day 23: Inspired by a Movie

Okay, So I was going to do Hunger Games as my movie inspiration. However, due to the fact that my ability to draw is non-existent, it did not happen. My poor mockingjay looked like roadkill.

I was very lost as to what I should do for my nails. But then I saw this awesome picture (click it!) and knew I had to recreate it.

So my movie inspiration is Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. The scene portrayed on my nails is when Harry and Voldemort's wands clashed in the graveyard. This also happens again at Deathly Hallows Part 2.
I used Finger Paint's Black Expressionism as my base. And the wand ray colors are combinations of Sinful Colors Nail Art's Me First with Worn Before and Orange Alert with Time 2 Go. The explosion part is Sation's Lemon Pearl mixed with the Sinful Colors.

Day 22: Inspired by a Song

So today my song of inspiration was The Cuppycake Song.

You can listen to it here.

Cute, huh? This song is my best friends and my theme song! So anyway, for my base I used Sinful Colors's Cinderella. For the stripes I used Sinful Colors Nail Art's Fun Times and A Slice to go. For this cupcake wrapper I used Bizzare Blurple. The Icing was Island Girl's Pineapple Plantation. The sprinkles was Nicolreby OPI's My Lifesaver and the heart was Orly's Passion Fruit.

Day 10: Gradient

So today is a gradient day and in honor of my GSA club meeting, I had a purple gradient. Purple is the the national color for the Gay-Straight Alliance.

Anyway I used Essence's Grey-t To Be Here, Sally Hansen Diamond Strength's All Aglow, and Sinful Colors' Purple Diamond. I was a little skeptical to use the All Aglow and Purple Diamond together, since one was so dark and one was so light. However, the end result was beautiful!

Isn't it beautiful? I love how the purple faded into the grey. It is soo pretty! I love it and will defiantly do this combo again!

What's your favorite gradient color combo? Sorry for such a short post, I have work tonight and I need to study.

See you guys tomorrow! I believe I need to be polkadotted. :)
