Inocente Izucar Inspired Nail Art

I was watching a Glass Posse vlog a little while ago were they went to Inocente's art show in New York. I have never heard of her before but it turns out she was the subject of a documentary which won an Academy Award for Best Documentary Short. Her art that I saw in the vlog looked amazing and I knew I wanted to paint one of her pictures on my nails. 



Her painting I choose was shown fully in the vlog and I thought would look really cool as nail art. The colors and everything are not exactly like her painting but am happy with the way it turned out. To get the colors for the girls hair I sponged each color individually. The hardest part was obviously the eye with all those swirls coming down and the tiny eyelashes. It seemed like it took for ever to finish.




Colors Used:
Nicole by Opi Hit The Lights
Opi My Vampire Is Buff
Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Fiery Island and Peach of Cake
Sally Hansen Insta-Dri in Blue-Away
Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in Mint Sorbet and Blue Me Away!
Sinful Colors Beau Khaki
Its So Easy Stripe Rite in White and Black
Sephora by Opi in I'm Wired, What Aura Gonna Wear? and What a Broad

August Challenge: Re-Creation Nail Art


Day number twos challenge was to re-create another's design for this I decided to paint Pshiiit's design you can view it here



I started with two coats of Opi nail envy then one coat of China Glaze Strong Adhesion Base Coat. For the base color I used one coat of  Opi Don't Pretzel My Buttons. Once that was dry I painted squiggly lines in all different directions not completely covering up the base color. For that I used Nichole by Opi's Naturally and Hit The Lights, Opi Did It On 'Em, Sinful Shine's Royal Flush and Sally Hanson's Maximum Growth Plus in Copper Glamour. For the Ikat look I used my skinniest brush making like little tick marks and the black I used is Orly Liquid Vinyl.

Neon and Ombre Stripe Nail Art


I decided to do a Mr. Candiipants look(link below), because I love her nails so much, I just changed the colors. It's totally not my best work I even got some purple on it when making the owls on my left hand but I love these colors together. I used white to do the ombré with Quick Teal.

Milani: Quick Teal
China Glaze: Yellow Polka Dot Bikini and Pool Party (which looks like a reddish orange in the pick but its neon pink) and white on white
