Nautical Water Decals Nicole Diary No.39

Nautical nails have some majo of their own and the classic blue, white, red theme makes them all the more desirable. On a personal history note, I have never attempted nautical nails. Ever. But when I came across these utterly cute and classic nail water decals from Nicole Diary, I couldn’t resist!

Green Floral Nicole Diary No.13 Water Decals

Green floral nails are perfect for the weather here at Mumbai, for its raining ferrociously and there’s greenary all around! Its a pleasant surrounding and these nails make me feel refreshed and happy all day long.

Arabesque – Nicole Diary No.06 Water Decals

Since the last time I wrote about Nicole Diary, their company and brand has expanded immensely and currently are selling much more than those simple but unique water declas. They have recently started selling their brand of nail stamping plates, clear stamper and scraper sets (those scrapers are a steal!) and if I am right about assuming, they are all set to launch their stamping polishes! No…

Drag Marble Nail Decals Using Stampers

Drag marble decals were made infamous by the Queen of Dry Marbles – Sveta Sanders. Since then the once avoided, super messy trend of dry marbling and drag marbling has been back and with silicon mats and Ziplock bags, drag and dry marbles have become a staple! I personally can never make that Ziplock bag work and silicon mat is a thing I have been trying to not splurge on. People do say that…

Warm Geode Nail Art

The very essence of this design can’t be definitively termed “geode“, but for me on a personal note it fits in the geode category perfectly for its compact color structure. I wanted to do something super simple, having no boundaries on creativity, and requiring minmal freehand skills. With anything freehand, be it a line or a swirl or whatever, precision and consistency matters. This design…

Double Stamping Illusion nails

In the last post I reviewed the Clear Jelly Stamper from Born Pretty Store (Click HERE to readthe post), and its pretty obvious I had to do some REAL Stamping nail art using it! I decided to use some dimensional stamping image to actually put the “see-through-it-for-perfection” attribute of the clear stamper :P . Why the title Double stamping Illusion nails? Well, the technique employed is that…

Clear Jelly Stamper – Yay or Nay?

If at all you are in the nail art world, you probably have a sneaky eye on buying this “jewel of a product” or you already own one if not few! Personally, I do think the launch of the genius Clear Jelly Stamperis one of the best things to have ever happened, and there’s no doubt its revolutionized the stamping community. Me and stamping were poles apart until the last quarter of 2015 when I had…

Emoji Nails using Nicole Diary Water Decals

Who deosn’t love emojis!? We rely so much on emojis today that can you belive that we lived in days when cellphones weren’t around and thus no emojis?? Not even in mails.. Hell, what life did we have back then! Emojis are the most cutest and simplest way to deliver emotions, be it the smiles, joy, love, fun, sorrow or anger. I have seen people painting on emojis on their nails (the early Cutepoli…

Nicole Diary No.28 Floral Water Decals

Sometimes somethings just click – like some shade looks better on you than rest, and probably these are the decals that suit me better! I had ventured to create a look with these a long time ago and trust me, it had turned out sour.. I hated these secretly for a little while later, just to grab these back recently since I “had” to do review. Guess what!? These are my fav of the lot now.…

Geometrical Pattern Water Decals – Nicole Diary

Geometric is one of the best designs to sport all around the year! The tricky part though is creating the design itself. Geometric patterns look so funky and simple on paper, but to create them on nails is a formidable task. Of the three possible methods to have geometric nails viz. Freehand, Water decals/Stickers and Stamping; freehand is as good as being off limit. Stamping has its own pros,…
