Tia's Sleepover party

Here are some pictures from the my niece Tia's birthday sleepover this weekend.

They were all really happy with their nails which was great :D 

Mini Millie nails

As her sister was having her nails done my younger niece did not want to be left out - and rightly so! 

She picked her designs from the nail wheels I have for kids pamper parties.

I used too many different polishes to mention I also used acrylic paints. If you want to know what a particular colour is just ask in comments.

Pamper Party Nails - Jack Wills Inspired

My niece is turning 12 on today and having a sleepover on Saturday  and of course I am popping over to do the nails! We were having a little trial yesterday and here is what she wanted

 Really simple used Essie French affair from the 2011 mini french affair cube and China Glaze first mate then white acrylic paint for the letters. Nice and simple and she loves it!

Purple and Pink Tribal Gradient

As I wrote my previous post I remembered I did a similar manicure back in April. This time to do the gradient I used acrylic paint and a brush it worked really well too. These are IBD enhancements in quite an extreme shape as you can see in the second picture they proved hard to work with so I had to shorten them slightly.

The thumb and ring finger are MUA black and Models Own Hedkandi disco mix 

Trying to think of something else to say than thanks for stopping by!
Love Stacie

Rainbow Gradient with tribal nail art

To continue yesterdays post I couldn't just leave the gradient as it was so I added some black designs with a fine brush and acrylic paints

Rainbow Gradient Nail Art

I was talking to one of my clients and she wants a rainbow gradient next time she comes in so I had to have a little practice first. If you want to know how to do this technique Sammy has a great tutorial here
I didn't follow here technique I just made it up but I know lots of people have been using this with great success. I put 5 colours on my foil and dipped my little sponge in (IBD Nail wipes are fab for this as the holes in the sponge aren't too large)

 On the index and middle fingers the colours showing are Essie Fiji, Models Own Lemon Meringue and Essie Candy Apple on the ring and pinkie the colours showing are Essie Candy Apple, Models Own Blooboo and Essie Nice is Nice.
I think this will be continued tomorrow.... :D

French Manicure with a twist

I used Models Own in Pink Fizz instead of white. I think it looks so pretty

 I have IBD gel enhancements on and then I applied the pink glitter polish. I loved it for a few days and then I felt it looked a bit unfinished so I added this

I used a nail art striper for the silver line and a little pearl bow from ebay. I don't think this will be the last version of this I do. I really like the polish and think little rows of pearls and rhinestones will look lovely! 

Thanks for stopping by

Love
