Birdcage under Water

My little sister once gave me a lovely decorative birdcage, and I use it to house four bottles of nail polishes. If there's is a nail art that I've always wanted to try, it's definitely the design of a birdcage. As I mentioned before, drawing is not my thing. So, I was hoping that I would find a nail art sticker of it someday. That day has finally come, I found a water decal on eBay with a bird cage hanging on a branch with birds in and around it:

I used two coats of Essie Ballet Slippers, a milky pink sheer polish. The accent nail has an extra coat of Essence Frosted Campaign from the TE Crystalliced.

The water decals are very easy to use. Just cut out the design and soak that piece of paper in water for a few seconds. The transparent film with the design will separate from the paper sheet and you can place it on the nails as you like. The size of this design was actually a bit bigger than my nail, so I had to chop off a part of the branch. 

What design have you always wanted to try?

Have a great weekend!

Bonbon inspired mani

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! I did a bonbon inspired mani:

The chocolate nails are swatched with Barry M's Chocolate and the ring finger has three coats of Essence Team Nude. The pink stripes are done with a striping brush and Essie Van D'Go. I added Canmake Nail Topping Coat #04 Mixed Fruit Seeds on the index and ring finger. The little heart on the middle finger is painted with OPI Red Hot Ayers Rock.

As I mentioned above, this mani was inspired by sweet bonbons. They looked like this before I devoured them:

Have a sweet day!
