I got the polishes from the Essence Metallics collection! OMG, OMG!! Why are they so special? Four of them are magnetic! The only thing I have to criticize is the Essence magnet :/ It’s sucks! I’ve done all the swaches of the magnetic polishes with Alessandro magnet Copper Rulez! Iron Goddess: here you can see the difference between Alessandro and the Essence magnet. Metal Battle: this is the only polish in the collection that is not magnetic. Nothing Else Metals: is some kind of washed out golden olive color with silver highlights when you apply the magnet pattern. Steel Me: this polish is a lot thicker than the others in the collection. My boyfriend had a suggestion to try with these polishes – the Buckyballs (little magnets). It looks like some kind of grid or snake/alligator skin. In the Metallics collection there are also lipsticks and jumbo eye pencils. And here are the swaches of the jumbo eye pencils: What do you think about this collection? Have a nice time!
fuck yeah nail art! I created this tumblr because I always end up browsing for hours before I do a new manicure, and I wanted the world's best nail art available in one place. I'm not into the average art you can get at any corner nail salon, I like the new, crazy, interesting nail art. It's the 21st century, your nails shouldn't look like the 90s! Most of the nails posted are not mine. All nails have links back to their original sources. If you're new to tumblr, you should know that the "fuck yeah" in this blog's title is not meant to offend--fuck yeah blogs are a tumblr phenomenon intended to indicate that the blog is solely dedicated to that single subject.

Laser Beam Nail Today I have a tutorial for the 'Strobe Lights' part of my Disco Mani from earlier in the week. I suppose you could also call them Lasers or Moonbeams. Ooh, I like Moonbeams - the Moonbeam Mani has kind of a ring to it, don't you think? You Will Need Bright colours for the 'lasers'. Black nail polish. Clear top coat that's fast drying. Striping tape which you can get on eBay or from online nail art supply stores. Tweezers. The Fun Part! Step 1 Paint on your bright base colour and make sure it is completely dry before moving on to the next step. You can stick with one colour for every nail or be a bit adventurous by mixing and matching! Step 2 Cut a few lengths of striping tape about twice the length of your nail and place them where you want your lasers to be. Step 3 One nail at a time, paint your black polish all over your nail and move straight on to step 4. Step 4 While your black polish is still wet, carefully remove the striping tape one strip at a time. Finishing Up Ta-Dah! All finished!
...love Maegan: * Partial French Braid & Cascading Hair Tutorial *also known as the "Waterfall Braid" Fashion+Home+Lifestyle Blog I’m not the originator of this hair style but I’ve gotten so many requests for it, I thought I’d give it a go for you. I don’t know what it’s called either so I haven’t researched it and/or found any other tutorials for it …thus, this is my version of it, and I’ve dubbed it the Partial French Braid w/ Cascading Hair. The photos I’ve seen online show the braid a little more straight across the back of the head and mine sort of braids at an angle, similar to my side/low french braid up-do. I’m sure this is 100% easier to do on someone else’s hair than your own but it goes pretty quickly once you get the hang of it …I mean, it’s my shortest hair video tutorial to date. That’s gotta mean something, right Enjoy. Note: Apologies in advance for the yelling of “NOOOO” towards the end, where I momentarily fear I’m going to lose my entire braid and have to start over. Have Fun! Find all my Hair Tutorials Here.
Nail Art How To, Images and Designs - Nail Art 101 Feather Manicure I bought these feathers a few weeks ago and I knew they'd make a gorgeous mani. Here's how to recreate the look. It'll cost you waaaay less than what you'd pay in the salon! You will need: A base color. I chose Essie's Glamour Purse. Two top coats. Before you start, prepare all of the feathers you plan to use by cutting off the ends. Paint on your base color, let it dry, then add a coat of your thick clear top coat. While the clear coat is still tacky, carefully place the feather on to your nail. When that's completely dry, apply a few coats of your fast drying top coat. Once that's dry, use scissors or cuticle clippers to trim off most of the excess feather hanging off the end of your nail. You can remove what's left with a nail file which also leaves you with a nice smooth edge. I like to clean up around my cuticles with pure acetone and a small paintbrush, especially after piling on all that top coat! And here's the result... What do you think of this manicure idea?
Flower Nail Here is a quick tutorial for the flower nails I created on Day 14. I had so many lovely comments and the design is just so simple to create so I thought I'd show you how I went about it. All you need is to create this look yourself is a few colours of your choice; a base colour and however many colours you decide to use for the flowers, and a dotting tool. And if you don't have a dotting tool, bobby pins make a great subsitute! How To: DIY Leopard Print Nails | Beaut.ie Flipping through the September issues of the magazines this year, a feeling of déjà vu has been creeping over me. Hot as the hob of hell for Autumn/Winter 2010 fashion: kitten heels. Pointy toed shoes. Capes. Flared – or at the very least, bootcut – trousers. Anyway, one of the other key trends of the season is Bet Lynch’s favourite print, and since even YSL has tipped the nod to a bit of nail art with Manucure Couture, it looks like AW10′s the time to work a bit of animal magic on your fingertips. No special brushes or pens or other nail art accoutrements? three bottles of nail varnish (a base colour, at least one contrasting colour for the centre of the leopard spots, and a black polish to define their edges);a bit of time; anda reasonably steady hand. Simples! Begin prepping your nails by removing any old nail varnish and filing them into your desired shape. Daub on your spots! It’s time to define the edges with your black nail varnish. Bet Lynch, eat your heart out!
Cheetah Printed Nails photos + post by Kristin Ess Cheetah print nails have been around for some time now but we’ve never actually done a tutorial on them. We got a lot of requests after last week’s Mani Monday heart tutorial, so we’re going for it! TOOLS: 2 toothpicks, black nail polish (American Apparel “Hassid”), gold nail polish (American Apparel “Gold Flash”), clear coat. PREP: Use any color your want on the base of your nails. Take your toothpick and tap it on the table or counter a few times to flatten out the tip. Nail strips are great in cheetah print as well, but so often the stores run out of that pattern.
