Neon Star Stamp

Hey Y'all!

I decided to join in on the nailartjune challenge on instagram and so I needed a neon design for the first day, which I'm late on but hopefully will catch up soon! I have been wantin to use Color Club "Hi-Tech Hibiscus" again, it's so beautiful, so I used it as my base color. And because I can't stop myself from usin Salon Perfect "Mer-Made Of Money," I used it for my stamp. Also Gol, I talked about this stampin plate in my monthly mani faves video and I was gonna link to a video I'd used it in and realized I hadn't done a video with it Gol, so I have now!

Here's How:

I started with a base of Color Club "Hi-Tech Hibiscus"

I used this plate I got from etsy.

Also usin my creative shop stamper set.

I place the polish onto the stamp. I'm usin Salon Perfect "Mer-Made Of Money."

Then I scrape the polish towards me with my creative shop scraper.

Pick up the image with my stamper in a rollin motion. I know it's slightly hard to see the image because the colors are so light.

Line up your nail and push into the stamper.

And there's the image.

Clean your stamper with a piece of tape.

Use your favorite top coat to seal it all in. I use Salon Perfect.

And that's it!

Here's the video:

I hope y'all enjoyed this! I ended up really likin this despite the face that it was a random last minute decision. Also in person it's very hard to see the stars without good lightin so that's not my favorite but up close I like them gol.

Ombre Lines

Hey Y'all!

Today I have an ombre line mani completely inspired by @rockyournails!

I loved it when I saw Mely post it and had to recreate it!

She did a blue one and

so I decided to do a purple one!

Here's How:

I started with a holographic purple base of Color Club "Eternal Beauty."

Then with a striper brush and dark purple polish (Sephora Formula X "Haphazard"), I begin makin lines or stripes startin at the cuticle.

Every couple of lines should be broken lines. I draw about 4 lines of the dark purple.

Then I repeat this step with a medium purple (Sephora Formula X "Indelible"). I only added 3 lines of this color because I was runnin out of nail space.
