Colour hearts (OOTD Nails)

Day 16 of #nailartapr challenge is to match OOTD! I'm wearing this cute dress with lots of hearts on it so here's my nails to match my OOTD. It's so fun doing manicure that matches your outfit! Oh yes, I filed down my nails cuz I felt it was too long and was afraid it might broke anytime! 


I used OPI Hot & Spicy on my index & pinky, and also for the hearts. The other two colour used for the hearts are Essence L.O.L and Essence Wanna Say Hello.

Ombre Stripes

I "recycled" my previous ombre nails and did this very chic nailart design. It's really easy to do! Just place striping tapes however you want them to be and paint them over with a dark colour polish. In my case, I did 5 stripes coming from a corner and paint them with a black polish. After that, just peel off the striping tapes and apply top coat. That's it! Enjoy~!

Blue Gradient/Ombre Nails

 So I have to do gradient/ombre nails for Day 13 of #nailartapr, and what's better to do then blue nails since its Autism Awareness month? I really like how this turned out. I don't normally wear blue nails but this kinda remind me of snow, like Christmas!



I used 3 shades of blue - Faceshop BL601, Essence Absolutely Blue and Essence Via Airmail. I topped it off with China Glaze Fairy Dust (always work so good with ombre nails!) and Seche Vite top coat.

Neon Chevron

 You can tell I'm loving this colour! The base colour is China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy which is a bright neon coral. I added black chevron with silver stripes, Celeb City by Sally Hansen. Had a hard time photographing these! This is actually a very easy and simple nailart. You can use scotch tape or striping tapes to help you achieve cleaner chevron lines.

Palm Trees

I'm in love with this manicure!!! Don't you think they just scream holiday to you? When I first saw this on Instagram (@nails_make_us), I knew I have to recreate this beautiful nailart. I definitely have to work on making my stripes more proportionate. 


This is before I drew the palm tress on. I used acrylic paint to draw the trees.

Nail polishes used (Top to Bottom): Etude House BL505, OPI Suzi's Hungary Again!, China Glaze Peachy Keen, Nature Republic YL701, Etude House BL502 and Nature Republic GR602. I used black striping tape for the black stripes.
