April Tripolish Challenge #3 and Day 24 - Tape mani - April 30 Day Nail Art Challenge

Hello there!! Here is my mani for April Tripolish challenge #3 and  Day 24 of April 30 day nail art challenge. The theme for the 30 day challenge is Tape Mani and I used the tri polish challenge colors to create it. So here is my one for two mani :). Hope you like it:)!!




I used..

Firstly, apply a base coat and one or two coats of gold nail polish and let it dry completely.
 Take out some bits of the striping tape and stick them onto your nail as shown.
 Then fill in the blocks with all the three colors and black. Here, I made sure that all the three colors are there on each of the nail along with black.
 Carefully peel off the striping tape, clean up your cuticles and finish off with a top coat :) . So what do you think about these. Do let me know by commenting below :)!!

Day 23 - Caviar Nails - April 30 Day Nail Art Challenge

Hello ladies:)!! Here is my day 23 mani for the April 30 day nail art challenge. The theme was Caviar Nails.   I don't really like the caviar nails look so I didn't even bother to buy the beads. Luckily, I found these craft beads which looks similar to the caviar beads but are a little bigger in size. I went ahead with them and here is the outcome.

April Tripolish Challenge # 2 And Day 18 - Sugar Spun - April 30 Day Nail Art Challenge

Hello ladies:)!! Here is my last mani for today. Today is Day 2 of the April Tripolish Challenge and the colors for this month are pink, turquoise and orange. You can find the rules of this challenge here. It is also Day 18 of the April 30 day nail art challenge. The theme for today is Sugar Spun. So I did one mani for both the challenges. It is a sugar spun mani with the three colors of tripolish challenge. Hope you like it:)!!








Bottles I chose for Tripolish Challenge
I used...

Firstly apply a base coat and two coats of white nail paint and let it dry completely. Now take 2 to 3 drops of pink, turquoise and orange nail paints on to a thick paper and let it sit for about a minute. To get the sugar spun look, the nail polish has to become thick and when you take the nail paint with a tooth pick a string should be formed. Start creating thin lines of nail polish string using toothpick dipped in the thick polish, without touching the nails. Here first I did turquoise, second was orange and lastly pink. Finish off by a top coat and done:)!!

I did sugar spun only for my middle and ring finger. For the other nails, I applied a mixed color glitter polish.




Let us see what the other lovely ladies of April 30 day nail art challenge HERE
and the Tripolish challenge have in store for you and me:)
