Nail Vinyls by @Madpik - Holographic Snowflakes

Hello, my lovely friends, readers, and fellow nail art enthusiasts!

Please excuse my absence, I have been battling allergies, pain and migraines for weeks :( And only now I get to get up and actually sit and write on my laptop ^_^

Oh well, enough with my rambling *lol* Now, to the post! Today I will be "showing off" these nail vinyls made in Indonesia:

Nail Vinyls Collection by @madpik

These vinyls have hit the nail art world by storm within these last 2 years, and yet only recently we can make them here in Indonesia.

Haloooo Teman2 pecinta Nail Art!

Akhirnya, blog ini ter-update juga ^_^ Maaf post saya di sini agak tertinggal dari instagram. Maklum, kalo di IG tinggal "plek" post foto, kalau di sini saya menulis proses sekaligus menyediakan link hehe..

Okeh! Langsung saya ya.. hari ini saya akan memperkenalkan produk yg namanya "Nail Vinyls". Nah, ini tampilannya:

Saya yakin beberapa teman-teman pecinta nail art sudah mendengar produk ini. Bedanya dengan stiker biasa adalah: bahannya. stiker / stensil kuku ada yang terbuat dari kertas, ada yang dari vinyl. Nah, yg terbuat dari vinyl ini lebih lentur, sehingga bisa mengikuti lengkung kuku kita. Vinyls juga tidak mudah sobek, dan menempel lebih mantab di lengkungan kuku. Jadi hasil akhirnya pun lebih rapi / tajam.

Bright Flowers and Holotastic Glitters!

Hello, my lovely readers! Hope you have a good Wednesday ^_^

I've been a little bit out of ideas lately, with my new part time job and everything that goes around here, then there's always that bunch of house chores, allergies, PMS and whatnot.. So I thought, why not slap on some dark colors and put on some bright colored - eye catching - designs?

Well, this is it.. here's one of those designs that I made out of pure experiment. No expectation, no big picture in mind. And.. I LOVE IT! *_*

What I used:

Random Hypnotic Pattern

Good day! Now that the my euphoria of seeing my own oh-so-stunning-holographic-rainbow nails has cooled down a bit, I am going to share some of these nail art I made a few weeks ago.

Here comes the details.. They're quite Hypnotizing ^_^

Dreamy Flowers

Good Morning, All! It's warm here, around 85⁰ F here with just enough rain.. Makes me feel like going back to bed, dreaming again *wink*

Well, today's nail art is a bit "dreamy" :) I was running out of inspiration when I made this. I kinda wanted to make something over a dark base color. So here it is..

Hmm.. Black made my hand looked so pale..
Oh well, here comes the hi-res photo below.

Gunilla the Battle Maiden

Now, THIS is one of my MASTERPIECE Nail Art!

Inspired by my middle name, I googled the name meaning of Gunilla. And here's the result:

Soundtrack Inspired Nails: 한 여자 ("One Woman")

Hi, all.. I apologize for not writing for the past few weeks.

I am going through some rough patches right now and hopeful, that someday soon I too shall see my rainbow after this storm :)

Now, talking about rainbows and storms.. I've become a fan of romantic comedy dramas in these past 2 years. I can feel the love and laughs through ridiculous storyline, and many of their soundtracks inspired me in my quest for nail art inpiration.

Here's one of them..

My Version of Quatrefoil

Good Morning, Lovely readers and nail art lovers! :)

It's been a while since my last post, since I've been struggling with bad migraines for the past two weeks. I'm hoping to be migraine free for the next.. well, for good! :)

Ok, I've been posting these on my instagram but I haven't been well enough to actually sit in front of my laptop and upload them on my blog.

Batik Nails in Black and White

Hi all :)

Oh well, I know I'm a little late for Batik day on October 2nd :) Still, I think Batik is good to wear all year long :) Plus, I always love how batik looks on nails, So I made one yesterday.

This is the pattern named "Parang Rusak" from Central Java.

Glamorous Nail Art: Embossed Silver Swirls Over Black

Oh well, I don't really feel like painting anymore today.. Plus, after a good long previous post I'd like to keep this one real short :)

As the title says, this is jet black polish embellished with silver embossed stickers and some rhinestones.

Black and White Nail Art: Beautiful Vintage Swirls

Hellooo Everyone!

Aaah.. Finally! After 2 hectic weeks, and an amazing spiritual feast in a 3-day-convention I can finally sit down in front of my laptop this morning to post one of my favorit-est designs this month! ^_^

This was inspired by a desktop wallpaper I downloaded from internet. And today, I am going to spam you with pictures just because I can *LOL

Simple NOTD - Green roses, White Filligrees over Black (IN)

Hi, Girls.. Saya rasa jam ini kalian sudah tidur. *sigh* Akhir-akhir ini saya sedikit insomnia. Berhubung saya sudah harus tidur (tapi belum bisa tidur) jadi, kali ini post nya pendek saja.

Warna hitam adalah warna favorite saya sejak dulu (setelah kuning, tentunya) Dan desain ini adalah hasil "doodling" saya sewaktu saya agak kurang inspirasi untuk ber-nail art-ria.

Simple NOTD - Green roses, White Filligrees over Black

Okay, It's really late and I really need to get some sleep. Problem is, I still can't sleep *sigh*. So I'm going to keep this post real short for now.

Black has always been my favorite color - next to yellow ^_^ And this design was one of my "doodles" when I was blank and quite uninspired..

K-Pop Nails!

Hellooo, Lovely Ladies!

It's been a while since my last post.. I have to take care of some important stuff *hix..*

Aw-rite! Today's post is a little bit - well.. - Unusual. I made this nail tattoo design a while back. And, maaann.. the things i can do while in PMS..?! Crazy! I have some of my "masterpieces" made during my PMS session and yess, those weeks were always the most emotional of the whole month!

K-Pop Nails! (IN)

Hellooo, Semuaaa! ^_^

Maaf yaa, saya terpaksa absen selama beberapa hari karena satu dan lain hal..

Langsung saja ke topik yuukk! Tahu dong, yang namanya PMS? Yup, minggu-minggu PMS ini benar-benar bisa bikin kita super emosional. Tapi ketimbang marah-marah gak jelas, mending bikin nail art, ya gak?

My Kind of Stripes (IN)

Hello, Girls ^_^

Kali ini, saya akan menampilkan desain "geometris" dengan menggunakan Striping tapes dan gradasi warna pelangi.

Sejujurnya, saya agak kurang sabar dengan tipe nail art yang satu ini. 

One Stroke Ribbon (IN)

Girls! Ini sebenarnya adalah artikel pertama saya waktu menulis blog kira-kira seminggu lalu. Daaaan, ini juga adalah desain nail art dengan tehnik "one stroke" yang pertama kali berhasil *kemarin-kemarin ggaggaall terus :-P

Setelah beratus-ratus kali menonton video yutub nya "Tartofraises" --> nanti search di youtube yha ^_^ - setelah latihan selama.. errmm.. lama deh pokoknya *haha

Akhirnya sukses juga! Nnnaahh ini foto-fotonya.. kalau ingin tahu tutorialnya, sabar ya Girls.. segera saya buatkan nanti.

My Kind of Stripes

Hello, my fellow nail art addicts out there ^_^

On this post, I'm going to talk about my first Striping-tape-mani.

I have a mixed feeling about this method. I liked the final results but the journey took too long (-.-)
Not only it was time consuming, the tape - oh, the tape! - It's so thin and a little bit tricky to deal with.
However.. if you have the patience, maybe this method is for you! I tell ya, the end result was worth the effort (^_^)

One Stroke Ribbon

Ok! Here comes my first nail art post on the blog! *do the dance* lol

This is my first successful attempt on one stroke nail art and was inspired by the incredible Tartofraise of http://www.nail-art.fr/

I have been practicing one stroke technique for a while now, and this time.. It works!! Woohoo!

I was so happy that after finishing my happy dance, I continued making this design on my non-dominant hands! How cool is that? lol..
