Super easy 3d bow

I haven't posted anything here for a while, so I'll try to make some quick catching up:)

This is the easiest 3d bow I can think of, just fletten the beads of acrylic and you are done. For the ribbons I used the most wet I bead I could, and pulled it before making it flat..

The polishes used are both by Indigo, "Harlequin" and "Paradox". If you 'd like to watch the tutorial, click here

Jungle Fever

This is my second ever set of acrylic nails... not so good, not so easy either.
I used EzFlow acrylic, a set that I had for a year now, maybe more. I had used it once and remembered that it was realy "ez flowing" but I eally struggled to pick a bead. Is it because it has been open for so long? I am not happy with the shape, but this is my sister, so I can see her again and fix that:)

I used IBD Just Gel polish in "Jungle Fever", 3 coats, then applied 1 coat of "All That Glitters" and wiped some lines with my brush. Covered with topcoat.

I was happy that she asked for bows like mine, so I made the 3d and placed the rhinestones in the middle.

 
Pls don't judge the shape.. :(

My new year's nails - pure gold

This is the first time I ever use a peel off base for polish. I figured it was a good time to test it, since my last minute nails would be practicaly dipped in gold glitter:)

Here is what I did at the last day of 2013, a couple of hours before dinner:

and here is with the 3d bows I added a couple of days later:

The second picture was taken with my phone. The real color is gold, so it is somewhere in the middle. 

Glitter and bows

I was waiting to post this one  as soon as she came back to let me make some acrylic bows.. but she didn't.

IBD Just Gel polish "Cosmic Red"

This is the photo of the same nailart recreated with acrylic paint over the sweetest red, IBD Just Gel Polish "Cosmic Red" <3

This friend is not allowed to have long nails or polished nails at work, and I was very happy she trusted me for the holidays..!
We made gel extensions with NSI Balance (cover pink worm, it is my favorite) and applied IBD "Cosmic Red" on top, 3 very thin coats, even though 2 were enough. Applied topcoat, buffed and painted the bows that she saw on my nails with acrylic paint. Mine were made with polish, but I do not own a gel polish in pure gold. Topcoated again and voila!
