Bridal french nails

I really don't know how I should name my post title anymore... my energy is running all time low these days and my lower back pain is not helping!! ARGH!!

Anyway! I did this over the weekend and I really love the layered flowers (pink w a tinge of peach) I did for this bride.


It's actually really simple, but it's so pretty!


This is a set of gel tips extension, the white french part is sculptured using white gel.

Pale pink bridal nails w clustered crystals


Totally girly and sweet! A design from Nail Max chosen by customer for her wedding photoshoot. :)

NEW! Gel flowers inlay

Remember the dried flowers inlay nails craze? Now the Japanese has come up with something better, dried flowers stickers that look almost exactly like dried flowers!! The only difference is - it's better! Colours are more vibrant and they won't turn yellow. :)

Here's one set of sample I did in gel.


Glittery peach pink with round pink & gold glitter flakes. It looks really pretty in real... too bad the colors don't show up well here.


See!! I told you it looks so real! Anyone wants to do this?? :)

Bridal nails - white fluffy nail art

I was very thrilled when I finished this set of nails for a bride! Cos there're frills, ribbons, crystals and fluffy marshmallow-like flowers. All in one set! Oh, and not forgetting that this is a design from 2009 Nail Max Collection Magazine. Basically the original design has air-brushed laces on, so I combined another design and changed it to embossed frills. :D


This nail polish color (TiNS) is a very sweet metallic peach pink with tiny glitter, and it goes very well with her skin tone and the white nail art.


I really ♥ the frills! The fluffy marshmallow flowers look so dreamy.
And the embossed nail art are all done freehand using acrylic powder.


And lastly, the thumb design. Huge clear crystals with a string of silver beads surrounding it, with pink and AB crystals to bling it up further. :)

Poodle Pop!

Did a set of nails that consists of ice creams, cupcakes, candies, doughnuts and lastly her doggies, poodles! This customer of mine is really amazing cos she's got 5 poodles! 2 giant ones and 3 toy poodles. Damn cute!!


Yes, this took me quite awhile to get it done. I kept staring at it after it was done!


These are all her favourite food! Did it according to her taste preference. :)


Her cute toy poodles! From Nail Max!


And a cupcake with tons of cream which is also her favourite. :)
Referenced some of the nail art from Nail Max and the lollipop design from Clara.

Dusty pink glitter extension w crystals n flowers

I did this set of nails a few weeks back and all I could say is that her nail bed is really long and her nails are really pretty too!


A sweet and relatively simple design.


the length of her nails and nail bed. Nail extensions look exceptionally pretty on them.
Not forgetting the tiny cute round flowers I did for her, and to make the flowers sharp and defined, it's not as easy as it seems to be.


Took this pic from another angle. The dusty pink glitter, C curves and straight side walls can be seen more clearly here.


And lastly, the lovely thumbs.

Glitter gel extension with victorian design


Pretty isn't it? This set took me quite a bit of time to complete, but totally worth it cos looking at them makes me happy! The design on the middle finger is so bling!


♥ this shot! The nails are so photogenic! ;)

New nail art!

It's been a long time since I created some new nail art samples. Had some time on my hands today and created this 2 sets.


This is from Nail Max! And the one below is after my modification.


Huge gems, hearts, pop up roses on a leopard print base.
I added extra accessories to make it more outstanding than the one from Nail Max. Clara did a similar set just like the one from Nail Max, so I'll credit her too. :)


My Melody with love, doughnuts, candies, cupcake, ice cream and strawberries and cream.
Have seen many designs from nail magazines with all these stuff but I've never thought of putting them together till one of my customers told me she wanted all these on her nails! (I almost fainted when she told me. hahaha.) For this set, credit should be given to Clara too! You guys should see the melody nails she created! Customer emailed me her pics and told me to create something similar for her, and so.. my first attempt with My Melody and all the food stuffs!

Purple blue glitter extension with heart petal flowers


Now, this is a set of purple blue glitter acrylic extension. Added heart shaped petal flowers on her nails and crystals as requested by her. The funny thing about her is that the longer her nails is, the faster she smses with her iphone. I tried using iphone with long nails... and I felt so retarded. hahaha. Guess it's a matter of getting used to it?

Jo!! Your nails!! Sorry I took so long.. ;)

Pink fantasy

A super shiny and attention grabbing set of nails... with huge AB crystals!


It's really glittery and pretty isn't it? Looks like Jolin's nails. hehhehe.
The bows, hearts and crystals are her ideas and so we brainstormed and had a 'meeting'(as she calls it) before I start on her nails. :)


Oh and I also ♥ how the hearts are stacked together on the middle finger.
Bling bling bling bling bling!!!!
