Baby Girl!

Yesterday at 8:41, my best friend had a beautiful baby girl.  She looks exactly like her mommy and is super cute. She even came out with black hair, like her mom. :D In honor of the new life, I did baby girl nails!

This was the initial design, but I thought it was too plain.

So I added even more dots! 

This is done with Revlon Pink Chiffon as the base, then dotted with H&M Pink and Sinful colors 24/7.

I figure I may get comments about wanting to see the little girl, but unfortunately the mommy has not given me permission to post her picture and I kind of agree with that sentiment. Sorry! XD

Matte with shiny dots

So I had seen a lot of people doing matte bases with shinies on top, this was my first attempt at replicating.

This is Zoya Sevita with dots of topcoat on top.

I am not too pleased with the result. I think the dots were not shiny enough because of the cheap topcoat I used.

Ivanka weeds

This is Zoya Ivanka stamped with some weed like image.

Here's the close-up.

I actually love the way this turned out. I also like the green backdrop that my boyfriend so graciously supplied... This is the color of his room by the way. It may be a little over-powering, but it looks great. :D

Bubbly Glitter

I wish I could remember the name of this blue, it is gorgeous. I layer these large silver glitters over it, trying to go against the norm of having it heavier at the tips.

This reminds me of bubbles and I really like the way it turned out. Too bad I keep picking at the glitter, so it wont last long.

Check This Out!

I am planning on working as an artist if at all possible and have set up my deviant art page to sell my prints. Here are some examples. Obviously the prints will not have the watermarks on them, but I have seen too many people have their art stolen, like saved and put elsewhere, to not have watermarks on them.

Funeral Wreath

Waterlily

The Witch Doctor

If you like these and want to see more, you can check out my deviant art page at http://kittenoni.deviantart.com/ and the link will forever be available on the right side of this blog.

I also have a facebook page now dedicated to the art, however it mostly links back to the deviant art page as well. The facebook is Bevy's Art On Facebook .

Thanks for any interest you show even if you don't want to buy! :)

Matte and back. Pink Wednesday

This is Zoya Lolly in all of her matte glory. Gorgeous all by itself imo.

I stamped over it with Zoya Mira, then layered it with Zoya's Vegas Freeze to add a small shimmer.

Overall I am not in love with Vegas Freeze, but I am testing out ways in which I can make myself like it. :)

Nubar Reclaim

Ever since i started doing my nail blog. I have been in love with holos. I finally broke down and paid full price for one. Nubar Reclaim.


I hope these two images do the polish justice, enlarging them may help too. :)

Shiny Flaky

 I made a long trip to Ulta (it is like 2 hours away) and came back with Essie's flaky top coat.

This is it layered over an almost black blue. In this photo you can see the slight orange to green duo-chrome.

In this shot you can see how green the flakes look at am angle.

I really love this polish and can't wait to use it more. I'm growing quite the collection now and have many ideas to go with.

Magnetic Polish Testing

I just recently bought my first magnetic polish and didn't really do  much with it, but here is my tester.

It is Magnetix, made by Pretty Woman.

This is it plain in partial sunlight. I had not used the magnet yet.

Same lighting with the use of the wavey magnet, the other one seemed like it'd be boring.

This is it inside, with no sunlight.

I do like the magnetic polish and am interested to test it out more. I had a hard time not touching the nail while holding the magnet over it though.

Spiraling Dots

So I feel like I just disappeared for awhile there. I was back in school and was completely blindsided by anxiety, soo it wasn't that I wasn't doing my nails, just that almost everything seemed scary or something. XD

Anyway! I'm back now and feeling better! I'll start off with one of my favorite designs I did with Zoya Marina and Zoya Cynthia from the smoke and mirrors collection. These were new when I did this mani...


and the reverse colors on the other hand.

I hope you all are still following me and will continue to do so now that you know I am still alive. :p
