Summer Magnetic Strawberry Nail Art Tutorial featuring China Glaze and Masura

I was feeling in the mood for a summer fruit inspired manicure. A few years ago I did strawberry nails and really enjoy how simple they were to create yet how awesome the finished product looked. I've been playing with the Masura magnetic polishes a lot and decided to give a slightly different twist on that strawberry manicure I previously did.

Here's a tutorial video showing all the steps, I've also linked all the products I used below.

               

This easy summer strawberry manicure uses the Masura magnetic nail polish to give a great textured strawberry look to the nails. You'll see why it looks textured in the tutorial video. I thought that was fun to do!

These Masura magnetic nail polishes are so much fun! Magnetic nail polish gives that awesome cat's eye effect across the nails as you move your hand once you have used the magnet on the wet polish. Remember to use the magnet over the magnetic nail polish while it is wet, otherwise you won't be able to see the cat's eye effect come through on the nails. Magnetic nail polish is great for a beginner nail artist because it is really easy to use.

China Glaze hot flash from the China Glaze Lite Brites Collection is the base color for this manicure. Hot Flash is a great true red leaning strawberry red color by China Glaze. It really looks great as the base for this strawberry nail art.

I used the Masura White Base White Quartz in order to create a background shade for the Masura magnetic polish to really stand out on and also the seeds of the strawberries, This also helps give the manicure texture by building up the nail polish on the nail.

What do you think? Have you done strawberry nail art before?

Review: Seche Vive

Last year Seche came out with a new top coat: Seche Vive. It's considered a gel-like top coat but no light needed. I've been trying it out over the past year and have a few thoughts to share on it.

Seche Vive Top Coat

I've been using it over regular polish, thermals, holographic polishes, and stamping to see how it performs. Here's a photo of a manicure I just did using China Glaze Fresh Prince-ss as the base, Bow Thermo Top Coat Red over that, and then Powder Perfect Hathor over that on the accent nail. I really like how the red tip still shows through a bit on the accent nail making it look almost like a gradient. I finished the manicure with Seche Vive as the top coat.

You can see a previous manicure with stamping here.

On stamping, this top coat does NOT smear! It's awesome. I'd say the polish feels thicker than normal Seche Vite (which I also love, but can smear stamping easily if you don't float the top coat). The polish spreads like butter, goes on so smoothly on the nail and dries just like Seche Vite with that wonderful glassy finish. Over the cremes it also performs wonderfully.

Something I know a lot of people worry about is how a top coat will work over a holographic polish. The stamping manicure linked above also has a holographic polish and the Powder Perfect in this look has those very sparkly microglitters in it. The top coat did not dull these finishes. It also did not mess up the Bow thermal top coat. In the Bow polish, there are holographic super-micro-tiny particles and those shine right through.

Overall, I am very impressed with this top coat. It performs wonderfully and has all the best things I like about Seche Vite in it. The one thing I don't necessarily like is that it isn't in a clear bottle. I like seeing how much I have left and obviously it's hard to be able to tell the fill line in this bottle. But, I guess if that's the worst it has then I can live with that!

Have you tried this top coat? What do you think?

Dripping Icicles Nail Stamping Tutorial

When I saw the dripping icicles image on the Creative Shop plates I knew I HAD to use it in a mani.





I started off with Femme Fatale Crystal Droplets, a Beautometry.com store exclusive polish on all nails. I then sponged on Powder Perfect Lagoon to the tips of my nails after applying Moyra Liquid Tape. The Moyra Liquid Tape helps for easier cleanup on the cuticles when sponging nail art or stamping. I finished over the gradient using Powder Perfect Lightning Lady as a top coat

Then, I stamping with the Creative Shop stamper and Hit the Bottle As Black As Night stamping polish the dripping icicles image from Creative Shop plate 37. After removing the Moyra Liquid Nail Tape, I topped everything off again with the Powder Perfect Lightning Lady top coat.



What do you think? Is it chilly where you are?

Femme Fatale Isle of Cythera Captain America Manicure

Another Femme Fatale polish in the Birth of Venus Collection is Isle of Cythera. Isle of Cythera is also a holographic polish! I knew I had to use that one in something fun and when I saw the star in the circle in Messy Mansion MM15 I knew it would make a great manicure.

I first polished all nails with Femme Fatale Isle of Cythera and then painted the accent nail with Esmaltes da Kelly Hipapa. I stamped the star in the circle image from MM15 with the Creative Shop Galaxy Stamper using Isle of Cythera.

Then top coated everything with Seche Vive top coat. It is the newest Seche product and is a top coat that is gel-like but dries on its own. I find that it has the same glassy goodness of Seche Vite but you don't need to float the top coat in order to avoid smearing the stamping.


Have you used Seche Vive yet? What's your favorite top coat for stamping?

**Right now you can get a great deal on the Creative Shop Galaxy Stampers and refills at Beautometry.com!!**
Stamper sets are $5 (regularly $12) and refill heads are $4.50 (regularly $10.00)Just click here.

Holographic ZigZag with Femme Fatale Arrival of Venus and Creative Shop Plate 9

As soon as I saw that Femme Fatale Arrival of Venus was a holographic polish I knew I had to get it on my nails. Of course it's a stunner. It reminds me of a citrine stone with it's brilliant orange color and pretty rainbow holo flash.

I wanted to try stamping with it as well so I did an accent nail with Kleancolor Pastel Orange and stamped with the Creative Shop 9 Stamping Plate. These Creative Shop plates are absolutely amazing if you haven't tried any yet! They are very detailed and you can see in the image that it stamped wonderfully even with the intricate lines. I used the MoYou London NEW Rectangular sticky stamper for the stamping.



Have you tried Creative Shop stamping plates yet? What did you think?
