I'm not religious, but for those of you who are...

Happy Easter Sunday!

I actually should be studying for an exam right now, but...but....

The Easter Special is only a one-time chance out of one whole year!! T_T

Since I aced the first exam, I guess it wouldn't hurt my grade much. =P

Sorry, no Easter eggs! =O

  •  base coat
  • clear coat
  • white polish
  • blue polish
  • yellow polish
  • green polish
  • pink polish
  • silver glitter polish
  • sponge
  • Vaseline
 Step 1: Apply base coat

 Step 2: Apply Vaseline on the fingers

Step 3: Apply the Easter colors on the sponge in random order

 Step 4: Dap the sponge on to the nails

Tap lightly, and make sure your pattern is in the right angle!

Easily done with Vaseline pasted on to the hand =)

Just to lighten up the matted colors. ;D

[Nail Art] Saint Patrick's Day Gradient

Yikes! This one's very overdue! o_o

My bad, I had to go take a driver's test a couple of days ago.
 
Everything is computerized...Especially the scoring...

And I screwed up at the last bit of the course! Blarg!
 
I hate you, parallel parking!!! >=(

Aside all the complaining, Saint Patrick's Day is here! =D

Saint Patrick's Day is an Irish holiday celebrating the introduction of Christianity in Ireland. Saint Patrick was actually from Roman Britain around the 4th century and was kidnapped by Irish raiders when he was sixteen. Eventually, he fled back to Britain only to return to Ireland to Spread the word of God.

I love Wikipedia. >=D

Instead of the cliche clover patterns, I decided to go for a two-tone gradient.

It will be more easy to match with your outfits the next day. ovo

My only green polish was very light so I decided to use yellow also!
_______________________________________________________________________________________

 The materials you need:
  • Glitter polish
  • Base coat
  • Clear polish
  • Green polish (preferably light)
  • Yellow polish
  • Vaseline (our lifesaver)
  • Sponge (any type would suffice)

 Step 1: Apply the bast coat

Like we always do~

Step 2: Apply vaseline on the skin of every finger

Dapping the sponge can make a mess on the sides of your fingers! =(

Step 3: Apply yellow polish on the straight edge of the sponge

Are you ready for the next step? =D

Step4: Dap the painted sponge on to the nail

Work your way from the tip of the nail to 2/3 of the way up.

This is so the yellow can look faded on the middle of your nail as you tap from the tip. ;)

Step 5: Apply the green polish on another edge of the sponge

Let's reuse 'em!! =D

Step 6: Dap the painted sponge to the nail

It is basically the same process as the yellow, but let the green fade about the middle of your nail! =)

Step 7: Remove the mess on the sides of each finger

Vaseline does help alot in these kind of situations, doesn't it? >=D

Step 8: Apply glitter polish

Make sure not to let the glitter cover up the colors!

Just a thin layer should do just fine. ;D

Step 9: Apply clear polish

Get a habit of doing this step because it does have a function!

Nail arts with clear coat tend to last few more days than nail arts without it. =O

Voila! No more worries about getting pinched to death! Yay! =D

The Pinchfest is on!!! >=D
