GingerNails Goes 3D! - Pink half-moons and rhinestones

The other day I decided to do a half-moon manicure and I was in the mood for pink. It was only when I had finished doing my nails that I realised they reminded me of something from Madonna's music video for 'Material Girl'!

Here are my 'Material Girl' nails :)

This was my first time using these rhinestones, and I found them to be hard-wearing and very practical - they stuck on really well even without a top coat! I love the classy look and durability of this design.

Polishes used:

- Jordana Soft Pink (lighter pink base)

- Miki 9155 (darker pink half-moons)

- Meizilan Nail Design Taiwan nail art pen in unnamed white (for the half-moon outline)

- Cutex 3 in 1 - Base coat, top coat & clear nail polish (to stick on the rhinestones)

- Stop Nail: Little Star rhinestones (I bought these at a KONAD nail art stand in a mall in Las Vegas)

- OPI Top Coat

Easter Nail Art - Part Two: SPECKLED EGGS!

I hope you all enjoyed your Easter! Mine was nice and relaxing :)

The second (and final) design in my Easter Nail Art series is Speckled Eggs. Apologies for the delay in posting these - My original bottle of nail polish remover ran out before I had the chance to get a new one and clean my nails up! I take absolutely no credit for this design, as I was following this tutorial almost exactly as it is written, just with a coat of white under the base colours, and minus the matte top coat.

Here is how my attempt turned out:

Apart from a few little things, I'm pretty happy with the way it looks. I'm still working on the best way to clean up my nails and the best way to photograph them, so these things will improve with time!

Polishes used:
- Miki No. 25 (thumb base)
- Ulta 3 Lily White (underneath all colours, index finger base and sponged on top)
- Love and Beauty Lavender (middle finger base)
- Jordana Soft Pink (ring finger base)
- Love and Beauty Sky Blue (pinky base)
- OPI A-Taupe The Space Needle (brown spots)

(And apologies again for picture quality, the editing software I use just wasn't working out for me today.)
