Nail Art : Sponging & Sugar Spun/String
Exam's was over & I wanted to do nail art before I go back home. I wanted to something different and as I was reading some nail blogs, , I came by this fun nail art, sugar spun or string nail art.
Steps to do this nail art :
1. For the base color I used Elianto's dark blue fine glitter nail polish. You can use and dark or bright base color.
2. I chose two colors to do sponging at the opposite end corners of the nail. Face shop's Baby blue and Skin food's turquoise. Once I have done the sponging on the nail, both colors turned out darker than the original color because of the dark base color I chose.
3. Then I chose a bright pink from Face Shop. I first dropped a few drops on my palette then waited for few minutes to let the polish to become bit tacky and once stretch using the dotting tool, it will have like string like or cheesy like strings. Once you get the strings you start placing on the nail where you like it best.
4. And I sealed the whole nail art with top coat to give a glossy look. But when i applied the top coat the strings on my nails turned out like it has ben pressed or become a bit flattened out.
You can also try without top coat, it will give you a better 3D effect of the strings and a matte finish from the sponging.
Try this nail art, results was pretty satisfying for me!

Nail Art : Purple Pink Pearly Dry Marbling
Dry marbling is really fun. I like how the colors take effect after making the freehand swirls and pattern. I made another design on my friends toe nails, and I love the effect very much. Not a big fan of pink but I pretty much would have this design on my feet, for sure.
Exactly the same steps as Ocenia dry marbling nail art. Instead of using white nail polish for the swirls, here I used a light pearl nail polish with is not that opaque.
Here are the steps :
Step 1 : Paint your nails with base coat.
Step 2 : Paint 1st half of your nail with color A
Step 3 : Paint 2nd half of your nail with color B
Both nail polish should not be too much or too little. Paint you nails like you would with one color.
Step 4 : Use color C which will give a obvious/ beautiful swirls and effects on the nails. Slowly drop really small tiny dots on random area, again not too much.
Step 2 : Paint 1st half of your nail with color A

Step 4 : Use color C which will give a obvious/ beautiful swirls and effects on the nails. Slowly drop really small tiny dots on random area, again not too much.
For this nail art I used a pearl color instead.
Step 5 : Use a sharp pointed object, safety pin or thumbtack, I used a safety pin, the sharp end. Then I quickly made swirls or you can do any type of effects/patterns you like on your nails.
Do it before your nail polishes get dried one. If it does, the you wont be able to get the maximum swirl effects.
Once done, let them to dry just a little bit and then finish it off with top coat to seal the nail art and also a glossy shiny look.
Here is the outcome !
Like it ? I pretty much loved it.
Thanks for reading! =)
