Gold and black nail art!

Hello!
I recently received a brand new nail mail full of wonderful products from Born Pretty Store.
When I opened the package I was very surprised by how shine and gold they looked.
I wondered for a while what colour to use with them but then I decided to go for a simple black and an accent matte gold nail.

 The sheet contains also others patterns: two geometric intricated designs and a vertical chain like stickers.

I feel in love with this geometric mosaic pattern in gold and white. The sheet is approx 11.6 cm x 9 cm. It is enoght for several full manicures.
You can buy it here.
There are others six patterns available all geometric and in gold and white!

These stickers are very easy to use. I prefer applying them on a dried base colour.
You have to be very careful when you apply the sticker because it might leave some air bubble.
To make sure the nail art will last long you have to apply a top coat. In this case I applied a matte top coat. I think the matte gives this nail art a modern touch!

Then I tried to change a bit this nailart by adding a marble effect on some nails. I used black, white and gold acrylic paint on a white base, I mixed the shades randomly with a thin brush.

I hope you like the result!

Pong geometric nail art!

Hello!
Do you remeber pong? If not.... Gosh you are really young!
 Pong is one of the earliest arcade video games. It is a table tennis sports game featuring simple two-dimensional graphics. The game was originally manufactured by Atari.
This what the it looked like basically:

                                                                   image source

Well that's what this nail art reminds me of, except for the dark burgundy mauve background. of course!

How to achieve this result!?
It is really simple, I used some nail sticker from Born Pretty Store.

It is a full sheet of nail stickers. It measures 12.5cm X 6.7cm. The sheet has 4 different designs: some squares, some diamond like shape, some small circle and the little stripes I used in this nail art.

                                                                            stripes

                                                            small circle shapes

There are 6 colours to choose from,1 holographic. I picked the colour number #4. The effect is very similar to the iridescent paper foil used for laser or shattered glass nail art. Is has different shades on different base colours. I used a matte top coat, I think it gives a nice high tech look to the whole manicure.
 

You can apply the sticker over a dry nail colour base.
You can use your nails or a pair of tweesers to remove the design for the sheet and apply it directly on your nails.

 You can press a bit with your fingers to smooth the sticker surface and get rid of any air bubble.
Finally you can use a top coat for a long lasting result.

You can also apply a larger portion of stickers and peel it off with tweesers.

A great idea is to save the ramaining sticker and use it as decal, filling the gaps with a pigmented nail polish.
