Braided Nails

I've been being so curious about making a braid.
Since when i was a little girl i always ask my grandma (because my mom can't did any kind of braid and tail) to do my hair. And she like to made my hair braided.
Jusk like the other girls, i loved it!
And recently, on nails blog, tumblr, pinterest, and some instagram's pages, i often see a braid inspired nail.
From what i've learned, it usually needs at least 3 colours of nail polishes.
And it usually just done on thumb and ring-finger.
Because if you apply the braid on all of your nails, they're gonna be seen so 'crowded' and some flaws may make it even worse.
So, because this is my first trial of it, i make the braid only on my thumbs and ring-fingers..

And as usual, i made the step by step.. and also as usual, i've already done with my nails so i made it on a paper.. i hope it's clear enough to see :)

Can you make one to on your nails?
It needs patient and a-really-really-careful left hand to make it.
That's why i also make it only on my four fingers, and for the other six, i choose (again and again) my favorite colours, Jaded from Revlon. This mint colour just toooo good on my nails, at least that's what i think hahaha
Anyway,
you can use glitters and lining to hide the flaws if you can't make it as tidy as what you've seen..
maybe next time i will make the example for the lining and also glitters, just wait ;)

Oh, Oh My Nails Saranghae!

"Oh oh oh oh ppareul saranghae
Ah ah ah ah manhi manhihae..."

for every SONE, these must be very familiar lyrics.
Oh! is one of Girls' Generation's best song ever.
They also make the japanese version, the song, the lyrics, and the video are quiet similar with the korean one but the girl's look quiet different. They look more mature than in previous versions of the video. 
Although the concept is similar, in this latest video, they look much prettier in a much simpler makeup and hair-do.
 

If you watch the japanese version video, there isn't so much canges. The concept of both videos are about a group of cheerleaders who dance and sing cheerfully in a room and kinda indoor sport field. 
They use two kinds of costumes, they're baseball jackets combined with mini pants and mini dress cheerleader costume.
And about the differences, you can see the colors are changed alot. The costumes that they wear and the color of the interior are so different from the first video. Baseball jacket that was dominated with pink, as well as an interior that was dominated with pink and blue, now they're dominated with dark navy blue for the jacket and red for the interior.

And as usual, i try it up onto my nails. I just can resist their charm and the way i addicted to nail painting, i just can stop to try and try every design for my nails, hehehe.
So, for the trial i choose Oh! Japanese version's concept.
And i think i did it quiet well :p
  

So, Watcha think?
i think i love my nails more,
oh oh oh oh, my nails saranghae! :D

Cross Cross by Check Check

Last month my friend celebrated her 21st birthday and her friend gave her a set of Check Check Nail Kit by Face Shop.
Ew so lucky! And she got confused how to make a nail-art by those transparent nail polishes.
That's why yesterday she brought it up with her when she came and sleep-over at my home.
And after check the whole package of it, we could find the user guide there. Just right behind the package -__-

Because it was also the first time for me to make that kind of nail-art (okay it's nail-painting again also) and also the first time i was using that kind of nail polish. I've never used any kind of transparent nail polish before.
So i was just following the guide. It's my nails, Icha's, and also Tiki's nails that became my experiment last night.
But yeaaaay, i did it (almost) well. It looks good but a little bit awfull in some parts. You should know how hard it was to make the crossing patterns.
And it was really late when i tried to paint those nails, the hardest part was when i had to hold my drowsiness huhu

Luckily, the nails were done well!

Happy birthday again, Icha! Maybe it was my personal birthday gift for you, special nail-art, made with full of struggle! :p

And as always, i also make the step-by-step but i dont think it's clear enough. I just hope you can understand and try the better one on your nails :)

before you start the steps, i remind you that i was using white nail polish as the base colour so the transparent colours look better.
1. apply the colour line by line. it takes so much patient so i hope
    you have thousands of it to make the straight one.
2. make an opposite directioned line after the base colour dried.
3-4-5. make the other opposite directioned lines on it until the whole base lines covered.
DONE!

p.s. it was really hard to make my right nails with my left hand. pffftt

Play With Colours: Nail Painting Addiction Continues

Hello October!
time flies faster than i thought, seriously, seems like it's just yesterday i celebrate my 21st birthday hahaha
and it's october already now.

Lately, i really love to play with colours and paint em on my nails without stickers or anything like that.
and this time i also make a nailart-painting or you can call it nail-painting.
i still use some pastel colours (as usual) and use black nail polish for some firmly touches.
maybe if you already read my previous post you may find the identical post with this one,
the post tittled 'Tell Me Your Wish', where i make a pastelized nail-painting with pastel colours too but no black, i was using white dots to combine the colours.
soooo, to make it different with that post, i decided to use the different colours and black touch here..

Curious?
Let's play with colours!

Step-By-Step :
(you can see it at the previous post anyway, you can see it here also --> Tell Me Your Wish)

So, how are they?
Which one do you prefer, the one with white dots or black dots?
I think i love both of them, it's always hard for me to choose which one is my favorite from the whole nailarts i've ever made :p

But honestly i love how i play with the black colour.
i feel different with the previous one, it looks stronger, firm, and kinda vigorous heheheh
so, do you dare to play with the colours on your nails too? ;)
