Rabbithat's Nail Art

Some of the past months work!

A little bit of what I've been up to!

I've been busy working my bum off and had a few deaths in my family so I've had to take a breather from social media. You can follow me on insta @talhopper where I'm better about posting. But I'll be posting again after the holidays! Thank you for following and liking and loving life. 💖💖💖

The products I used are Glam and Glits To-A-Tee, EZflow Silver Screen, and CND clear acrylics. I also used Max Estrada's Gummy Jelly and No Wipe GEL Top Coat. The artwork was done with acrylic paints by hand.

On my pinky I used a mix of clear and some UV activated pigment powder (@solarcolordust Magenta) that I got from my good friend @dieclops. I also used Lechat's Perfect Match Hologram Diamond and faded it toward the tip. I placed some swarovski crystals on a few nails and adhered them with Max Estrada's Gummy Jelly and No wipe gel topcoat. My mom only lost one stone from her set and she's had them on for a week, does the dishes/cleans daily. SO proud 😂. This stuff is so awesome.

Gel Snake Nails!  I know I'm posting these really late!! To be honest I just kind of forgot about it and posted it literally every where else. I wanted to try something with gel polish where you put a sheer color on top (Finger Paints Main Art-traction) and use clear top coat (shiny no wipe by Max Estrada) to make the color underneath (Finger Paints Who do you He-art) show through, I thought that the top color would be bright enough to stand out but uh... it didn't really work. The design was free handed with acrylic paints and a gold polish Sally Hansen Infinity Band. My friend sent me some cutesy plastic gems in the mail and I used it as an opportunity to use Gummy Jelly by Max Estrada. Those things were seriously stuck on there. I had to drill some of them off lol.

So I FINALLY got a gel light and ordered some gummy jelly and the no wipe top coat from enailcouture. I freaking love it. There are probably better products to use to do these built up gel droplets but I was just messing around with it as I don’t have any gems yet.  I put Sinful Colors Orange cream as a base color and the rest is acrylic paints and the little gem looking things are just a holographic glitter piece with built up gel. I also built up the gummy jelly on top of the lady bugs to make them more 3D. 

I loveee this http://zandraart.tumblr.com/post/160474765911/patterns artwork by @zandraart so naturally I needed it on my nails. I had a hard time making a decision on which piece of art because they are all beautiful, seriously seriously beautiful. I know it’s not fall but there will be fox nails in my future I know that much. lol For product I used Essie Lillacism and China Glaze Swanky Silk, the rest is acrylic paint. My thumb was the same color as my index finger so I just didn’t include any shots of it, I was being a little lazy. :P

Poppies for memorial day!   I used sinful colors I'm bushing and the polish on my thumbs and pointer fingers are color club harp on it with finger paints colorful collage over the top. I tried to recreate a look from a lighter my fiance has with a bunch of watercolor flowers and some ladybugs on it. It’s really pretty and I thought the poppy would be perfect for memorial day.

The polish I used is Sinful Colors Zincing of you and Sally Hansen Color Therapy Cool Cucumber. The design is acrylic paint.

I did these for a client at school, she's getting married and wanted some blinged out wedding nails!! They ended up looking so cute! Her fiance helped pick out a lot of what she got done, it was really sweet, they had a little collaboration going. We used Milani Electric Pink and we sponged the tips with China Glaze Fairy Dust. For the ring finger we did OPI My Signature Is ‘DC with a coat of My Voice is a Little Norse and Finger Paints Colorful Collage. She also wanted some stones on her thumbs and above the I in I do. 

This original design is by Copycat Claws. I've done it once before on myself a few years ago and I knew my mom would love it because she's a turtle fanatic. It's a really simple yet beautiful design. I used acrylic paints to do the design, taking little flakies from Green Ocean and adding them to the back of the turtle in a shell pattern on her ring fingers.

Succulent nails!!! first time trying these, but I thought it would look great against the polish color (Pure Ice It’s all a bluer the design is acrylic paint). I loveeee it. I have quite a bit to do this weekend and so I went a little less intricate on the other hand but I love both looks!!! I think they would look great mixed together as well.  I also did an acrylic overlay on myself at the beginning of the week as practice so if they are looking a little different that’s why! It is very difficult to lay acrylic with your offhand. My instructor said it was a great first attempt at doing it on myself though!
