I used <b>OPI Mod About You </b>as my base. I created a double stamp using <b>OPI Kiss Me On the Tulips</b> and then Konad White. All patterns are from Born Pretty plate <b>BP-01</b>. . </div>

Hi Everyone. Today I have another gradient with a simple stamp on my ring finger, because I didn't want to take away from the lovely gradient I'd created using <b>piCture pOlish's Coral Reef</b> and <b>Fairy Floss </b>and <b>OPI Alpine Snow.</b></div>

I started the gradient on a base of OPI Alpine snow. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The stamping plate used was <b>Pueen112</b> in Konad White.</div>

It's a teal-y spotty leopard kinda day. A quick brain squirt I had. Got inspiration from a girls blouse I saw on the train ride home. I hope you like what I came up with.<br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<br />
Two weeks ago, me and my little family went to the Yarra Valley Strawberry Festival in Lilydale. I love strawberries, especially in a smoothie or for breakfast on Yoghurt with Honey and Cinnamon, yum. I came across this event through Facebook and it was actually more popular than what I was expecting. It was so popular they ran out of Strawberries!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-tpG5_0KhB7M/VkBlmMtI_AI/AAAAAAAABgw/wAqtDmd2ZwU/s1600/IMG_6583.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-tpG5_0KhB7M/VkBlmMtI_AI/AAAAAAAABgw/wAqtDmd2ZwU/s640/IMG_6583.JPG" width="512" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For this design I used a technique which I've never tried before. I created my own stamp decals. I've seen so many others do this, and I wanted to give it a go myself. I'm glad I made more than what I needed because it didn't quite go to plan as I had hoped. Let's just say it took me a couple goes before I had a result I thought was ok. How do they make it look so easy on YouTube!?!? it might take me a bit more practice, but it was definitely fun trying something new.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wUpUpTOZgGM/VkBlmcKG-hI/AAAAAAAABg0/TAwSCOvyRvA/s1600/IMG_6584.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wUpUpTOZgGM/VkBlmcKG-hI/AAAAAAAABg0/TAwSCOvyRvA/s640/IMG_6584.JPG" width="512" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For this manicure I've used <b>OPI Kiss Me On The Tulips</b>. On my ring finger I've got <b>piCture pOlish Fairy Floss</b> (there was plenty of that at the festival!). For the stamp decal itself, it's from<b> Pueen82</b>, using Konad Black and my Squishy Stampers from UberChic. I've filled in the strawberries with <b>OPI Coca-Cola Red </b>and the bows with Kiss Me On The Tulips. Poshé Top Coat to seal it in and make is shine.</div>

Hope you had a lovely weekend. See you next time.</div>

It's part of their scatter holo range and it's another beauty. It's a soft red, almost a pinkish-beigish-red (if that's possible) and with the gorgeous white/silver flecks and not to mention the subtle holos that just make you fall deeply in love with Paris. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's been almost 4 years later and our first wedding anniversary is coming up in a couple of weeks (wow has time flown!). Another reason why I have a spot for this polish xx</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I paired this with a stamp from the large stamping plates from Fun2, this design can be found on plate MJ-VI and Konad Stamping Polish in White. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I also recently purchased the Uber Chic XL Soft & Sticky stamper, just wow! I will write up a blog on that to come, but you can find other reviews. I purchased mine after seeing <a href="http://copycatclaws.blogspot.com.au/2015/09/uberchic-beauty-xl-stamper-review.html" target="_blank">Copycat Claws</a> blog review on the XL Stamper. Call it an impulse buy, but I just had to have it! And let me just say, it's a amazing!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My lovely friend Lisa from <a href="https://berrystylish1.jamberry.com/au/en/shop/profile" target="_blank">berrystylish1</a> is an independent consultant for Jamberry Nails. She was kind enough to give me a few samples of nail wraps to share with you.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Today's first sample I have for you is called <b>Silver Floral </b>(shop <a href="https://berrystylish1.jamberry.com/au/en/shop/products/silver-floral?originUri=%2Fau%2Fen%2Fshop%3Fcollection%3Dcollection%253A%252F%252F9999%26show%3Dall#.ViN3qlxv3lI" target="_blank">here</a>). It's a clear nail wrap with a silver design. </span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The silver floral is like a mirror finish, it's so much more amazing in real life!</span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The great thing about this particular wrap which i really liked is that you can pair it with any colour of your choice underneath. I've paired it with piCture pOlish's Tiffany.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It truly is my favourite technique, the gradient. But unfortunately I had a fatality about two weeks ago (ring finger) and I'm waiting for this little one to grow out a little longer before I chop the rest down to size. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But in the meantime I made the most of my longer nails with a graceful gradient then finished it off with some stamp work. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hope you like it.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The gradient on it's own, it was much more beautiful in real life. Picture Polish Majesty over Beige created more of a holo (very work appropriate manicure before the stamping). </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was wondering what to do to celebrate fathers day this year, so it had to be blue... I love deep and royal blues and just recently I've fallen in love with the idea of using matte top coat to create a nail art stamp pattern. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I've recreated a classic Fleur de Lis pattern, using <b>Picture Polish G'Day Matte</b> and Born Pretty stamping plate <b>BP-36</b>, over <b>OPI - U Saw We Saw Warsaw</b>. I got the idea from watching Picture Polish's <span id="goog_49116174"></span>video<span id="goog_49116175"></span> on their <a href="https://www.facebook.com/piCturepOlish/videos/vb.109841249041383/1180412701984227/?type=2&theater" target="_blank">Facebook</a> page.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm so excited I'm finally finding the time these days to do more nail art and posting them up. This really makes me so happy because I really enjoy doing doing this when I get the chance to. And to share this with so many others that have the same passion, truly is a blessing.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Today I've got a tri-colour gradient that I created to show you. I thought while I've still got long nails, I can fit three colours instead of just two! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My nails were starting to get to a really nice long length (and all intact!) so I took advantage of this rare occurrence and rounded them off some more, more than my usual sqaoval shape and tried more of an oval shape. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">From here, I had the best intententions of creating a "dramatic" french tip, however in the end it still looked like an ordinary french tip to me LOL. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I finished off the look with pretty pink flower water decals which I purchased online at KKCentreHk (link below).</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Another quick post. Apologies for the terrible photo, but this was taken when my husband went away on a work trip for two weeks and he was wondering what I was doing to keep myself busy while he was away... so I sent him a picture :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Every time I think about the theme for today's challenge I keep getting the song "Black and Gold" keeps getting stuck in my head. lol</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Black and Gold are two classic colours and when combined, they reek sophistication. I feel like slinking into a black, floor length dress and sip martini's at a bar... anyway back to the manicure. I thought a classic Ruffian manicure would suit this combination perfectly.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is the first time I've heard of the "Oh Mon Dieu" Nail Art Challenge and it looks like a great one too! I'm getting right on this band wagon.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Day1 is Teal. So wet with a teal marble affect manicure. Starting with a base of <b>OPI Fly</b>, I then made my first layer of spotted polish, <b>OPI Ski Teal We Drop</b>. Then a dash of Silver with <b>OPI Push And Shove</b>, the finally a layer of <b>OPI Black Onyx</b>.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: justify;">Hi Everyone </span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">PicturePolish has done it again with a gorgeous speckled nude. First there was PicturePolish Cherish and then they brought out <b>PicturePolish LakoDom</b>. If any of you follow me, you would notices that I like neutrals and these suit me to a tea. AND they have a tiny bit of shiny speckle to make them just even more special and unique (<a href="https://www.picturepolish.com.au/" target="_blank">PicturePolish</a> have a great range of these types of polishes).</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I decided to stick to the grey theme and a while a go I was given <b>PicturePolish PMT</b> from PicturePolish as a bonus in one of my orders. I love the name and it stamped really nicely over <b>PicturePolish LakoDom</b>.</span></div>

</ul>
<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I also purchased <b>PicturePolish Liquid Palisade</b>, which is a liquid latex. When I first saw other girls using it on YouTube, I saw another breakthrough in Nail Art and had to have it! It makes clean up so much easier and quicker. It does take a little patience to put on, but it's worth it. And while it's drying I used that time to apply my base colour.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After doing some research on the web, I decided to purchase this because it was coloured and you can see when it's dry. Not to mention it peels off really well. So i give <b>PicturePolishes Liquid Palisade </b>a big Thumbs Up! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Recently I was inspired by a favourite blogger of mine <a href="http://www.chitchatnails.com/2015/03/13/picture-polish-cherish-pharaoh/" target="_blank">ChitChat Nails</a> by her gradient creation using PicturePolish Cherish as a base with a pink gradient tip.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I also just happened to have PicturePolish's Cherish, which I absolutely love. I love neutrals, and this is a perfect nude with a dash of pink with reflective silver flecks. I fell in love with it as soon as i saw the first swatches appeared on the nail blogging world.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So here is my replicate of ChitChat Nails gradient. </span><br />

Hi everyone,<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Quick post of a manicure I did a while back. I had just applied two coats of OPI Dutch Ya Just Love OPI? (yes!) when I thought I could spruce up the plain purple with some simple water decals. <br />
<br />
Sometimes more is less, right?, and in this case a little dash of water decals made my one-tone manicure look like something out of a salon. Gotta love water decals for that!</div>

<br />
This is a manicure I've been wanting to do for a while and I finally found the time and COURAGE to give it a go. If you haven't discovered <b>Tartofraises </b>yet, go over to her YouTube or Blog and you will be amazed! She is the queen of One Stroke nail art and her designs are so beautiful and delicate.<br />
<br />
I came across her design of those cute scruffy Ourson Teddy Bears. She made it look easy enough that I thought even I could do that. So I got out my acrylic paints out, some basic paint brushes and gave it a good go, even tried painting with my left hand!<br />
<br />
I give all the credit to <b>Tartofraises </b>and I hope i gave her some justice. I hope you like my attempt at re-creating this cute design, I sure did have fun trying to re-create it.<br />

Hello Nailistas!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I'm sure you know of this product already, but I hadn't tried them yet and I wanted to see what the hype was all about. I have to admit I'm a fan!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
What I like most about the Incoco Nail Strips is that they're made with actual nail polish. I think this is what makes them stand out from the rest of the competition.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I've used other nail strips, but they tend to crack, rip, bubble, or just don't fit my nails. The best part about Incoco Nail strips is the fact they are <b>made from 100% real nail polish</b>, so this makes them more pliable. You can stretch them (not too much, they too will rip if stretched too far) and pull them into shape and the end result is a professional looking finish.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I was in the market for some french tips for my upcoming wedding. I personally find it laborious to do French manicures. So was really interested to see how Incoco French Tips stacked up. I was so impressed how simple these were to apply, and perfect every time! This is part due to the fact you can pull them into the right position so easily.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
For a first timer to Incoco Nail Strips, I am now an absolute fan!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I have pictured below my end results using French Tips in <b>Cloud Nine</b>. I wasn't too sure what colours i was ordering on the online shop, perhaps if they used real photos, they would give buyers and better indication of the colours you are getting. Cloud Nine is essentially a clear top colour over a white French tip. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
It's been exactly one week, and below are picture of my nails. Let me tell you, these nail strips just keep blowing my mind. If I was to paint my nails with a French Manicure the old fashioned way, they would have already peeled off from the edges after just the 2nd day (tops!), this also includes using stamping french nail tips too. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Below are pictures after 7 days! and I'm going to persist to keep them for another 7, I will update this post next week. I'm dying to know how they last after 14 days, and I think they have the stamina to do it without any issue.</div>

I've really tried to highlight in the picture below the wear on the tips... but as you can see it's so minimal. I can't stop looking at my nails :) I've never had a French Manicure on my nails look this good for this long!!</div>

Needless to say I've made another order for another batch of French Tips and some other colours. Incoco also sell the French Tips on their own, so I'm curious to know how they will survive under a coat of regular nail polish and top coat. If you are interested, let me know in the comments below and I'll make sure to make a post on that too.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Make sure to come back soon, I will post up photos after 14days soon.</div>

I just wish the postage to Australia wasn't so expensive :(</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Ok, I finally got there! Let me say it wasn't easy, have you tried to keep the same manicure longer than a week?!? it's hard. Especially if you're like me and like to change your nails every couple of days! That's mostly because the polish chips and my OCD kicks in and need to re-do my manicure. But these nail strips didn't do that, and I think that's what impressed me the most.<br />
<br />
Anyway as promised here is the result after 14 days. Not any more wear than after 7 days. These babies just kept impressing me. And to be honest all they needed was a quick file to remove the wear on the tips and they would have been right to keep going.<br />
<br />
