2 tone purple glitter extension with bows

I used 2 different shades of purple glitter powder to create the 'gradient' effect. It was not easy cos the dark purple glitter is not easy to control.. but still, it turns out really nice! As usual, pics can be clicked to enlarge. :)


Her request to add something simple to her nails.. and I added my favourite type of bows for her.


The purple glitter is really pretty! And best of all, it's embedded. No worries of the color chipping off.

Sailor theme toes!


Cute!

Precious Gems

I sooooo love the look of this set of nails! Customer requested for clear nails and I added crystals and pearls to it. The colors of the gems consist of vintage pink, AB, champagne and clear.


It's simple.. yet so pretty!


This angle looks so pretty! You can see the 'C-curve' here. I love how acrylics can be moulded into a nice slender nail shape.. and of cos, the curve. Customer's natural nails are flat and the extension really flatters her nails! :)

All pics are clickable!

Gel nails!

Yeay! Blogger is normal again. Posting all the gel nail pics that I posted on Twitter few days back. All these are gel overlay on customer's natural nails.

White bows and crystals on silver french tips


This is a classic design that's always seen in nail magazines and customer requested for this design. I love the silver colour!

black, white, silver stripes.. with red bows


This is quite a short acrylic extension. Anyway, this set is inspired by my bra. No, you've not read wrongly, my BRA! ha ha ha. I showed her my bra the last time she came and then we decided that we want this design!

It's really eye catching in real! Nice and unique.

Gel marbellising on tips

A simple set of gel marbellising nails that's work appropriate. Customer told me she wanted pink and white marbellising that's suitable for work and this is the design I did for her.


Pretty!

Black & red bows with black laces

A set of nails I did sometime back, like 2 months ago? Her natural nails are pretty long, so this is acrylic overlay.


A baby pink nail color with painted black laces.. Added bows to enhance the look. The red bows are actually glitter-ish. I did a similar set sometime back, but bows and laces in white.

French nails with lilac petal flowers

No, this is not for a bride though it looks like it. Customer wants a clean french look, with some flowers and crystals and this is what I gave her.

Rosey lacey gold glitter

I've not done embossed laces before.. and yesterday this customer of mine chose this design from the latest issue of Nail Max. We modified the base color and changed it to gold instead of red. I think the baby pink laces and roses are really sweet!


This is on gel extension. The amazing thing bout gel is that they're really glossy, even the glitter is. The rose is on the thumb as well.


The close up.
Can't stop staring at them. ;)

Fresh minty gel marbellising


Gel extensions (the white tips are painted using white gel) using blue, green and white gel for the marbellising effect, and some holo flakes to bling up the nails. Loving this cos it looks so clean and fresh!


It looks really nice in real, but anyway, a close up pic for you guys to see it more clearly.

Black & silver glitter gradient extension


I've never done black glitter extensions before and here's a pretty pic of it!
Mixed silver glitter(this is not the usual silver glitter, it's a little sheer and also multicolored) to create a gradient effect and it turns out to be really glittery.


The thumb and the rose.
