Beauty Big Bang | Beads Nails Studs

Hello Lovelies, today I have another product from Beauty Big Bang to share with you all. This one is 3 Colors Gold Sliver Champagne Steel Mixed Nail Studs 3D Nail Decorations. The beads come in gold, rose gold and silver, in 4 different sizes(0.8mm/1.0mm/1.2mm/1.5mm), so there's plenty to choose from. I used gold, smallest and second smallest beads from the bunch for the nails below.

I started by painting freehand peacock like pattern on my nails using a nail art brush with polishes - Zoya's Wyatt and Purity. I also used Formula X's Provocative. Then once the pattern was finished I added the gold beads studs from Beauty Big Bang on my nails and sealed it with top coat. Once sealed with top coat these studs won't come off until you remove them with polish, which was really nice as I was worried they might come off easily. You can purchase these beaded studs from Beauty Big Bang by clicking HERE, for $2.99, Product Code SKU: J1485. You can get 10% OFF your entire purchase from Beauty Big Bang by using my code NCONTEXT10. Beauty Big Bang offers FREE SHIPPING world wide.

Indian Republic Day

Today is Indian’s 68th Republic Day and on this occasion I am sharing with you all a nail art inspired by Indian Flag colors. In India, Republic Day honors the date on which the Constitution of India came into force on 26 January 1950. Since India's national bird is Peacock, I wanted to create something depicting it using the National Flag colors. I did this nail art free-hand and used all polishes - Zoya's Purity, Michael Kor's Passion, Sinfulcolor's Innocent, Cupcake polish Little Butterfly and Ulta's Moody Blue.

Check out some other nail designs inspired by Indian Flag- HERE, HERE, HERE, and HERE.

Happy Republic Day Fellow Indians

Peacock Feathers

Hello People. Hope you all are having a wonderful 2016 so far. Today's nail art is an easy one. I created it to match one of my peacock feather Sari's in 2015 and couldn't share it until now. The green polish is the beautiful BLESSING(H) from FunLaquer. You can see its swatch HERE. The peacock feathers are done using water decals from BornPrettyStore. I bought these decals a while ago and didn't get a chance to use them till later last year. To purchase them you can click HERE and get 10% OFF your order by using a special coupon code QANX31. There are 2 types of peacock feathers in this sheet, one is white (see pic 4) and one is the regular green peacock feather (see pic 7).

Peacock Nails

WARNING : THIS IS A PICTURE HEAVY POST ;)

Recently my friend sent me a nail design of a peacock mani on facebook and said I should try it, since the design is so awesome. Now those of you who know me, know that I am a sucker for peacocks and peacock related things ( I own a lot of peacock jewelry, clothes, cushions, candles, etc). So how could I let go of an opportunity of painting my nails with peacock nail art? I did this mani to go with my Indian outfit which I wore to an Indian event recently. So here is my version of the picture she sent. The picture didn’t have any watermarks so I don’t know which artist to give the credit for the design.

The polishes that I have used are: Light Green – Sally Hansen’s Green With Envy, Golden – Zoya’s Ziv, Dark Green – Revlon’s Emerald City and OPI's Skip the gift wrap, Light Blue – Wet n Wild’s I need a refresh-mint.

Below is the picture of the original design and I am not sure who the artist is since there are no watermarks on the picture. (Pic credit: Facebook)

UPDATE: Found the artist of the above nail art which inspired me: Flightofwhimsy. You can see her design here.
