Nail Art! What I’ve Been Wearing Lately
If you’ve visited me in the studio lately you may recognize these designs as they are a few of my latest weekly manicures. On the weekends I usually catch up on swatching and reviews and then I decide on a nail art look to wear for the week while I work. I usually choose something simplistic and I like to add some accents to show my clients the type of work I can do.
This is the design that I wore last week. I started with a silver base using Gelish Tinsel My Fancy from the new Red Matters Collection (I’ll post the swatches very soon, I promise!!). Then I stamped over the middle two nails using a Mundo de Unas purple stamping polish, and UberChic stamping plate Out of Africa-01.
For this look I used Pink Gellac Powerful Plum, Luxury Gold and Beautiful Black. I stamped over the black nail with a Mundo de Unas gold stamping polish and UberChic stamping plate Wild West-01. I really liked the gold accents in this mani.
This was my least favorite look, but I thought I’d share it anyway. :) This design didn’t turn out quite as beautiful as I imagined in my head. The two accent nails turned out a little muddy, but I still received a lot of compliments on the look. The base color used was Pink Gellac Chique Red, which has been a very popular color with my clients. I used a nail art brush and applied a bit of Emerald Green and Golden Rose over top. I stamped over top with Mundo de Unas gold stamping polish and an image from Cheeky Jumbo Plate #10.

Andrea, I thought the third one was STUNNING! I think it’s my favorite!
Thank you! :)
Lovely designs – my favourite is the purple and silver stamping. Do you just top coat and cure the stamping once it’s done? I am a gel novice! Thanks!
Yes, I put one or two coats of gel top coat over the stamp and cure. :)
Funnily enough, the third one is my favorite.
