Butter London - No More Waity Katie

So here I am . . . Back after a brief hiatus . . . This is my homecoming nail art . . .

I love doing my nails. I mean . . . adorning my nails. My favorite ways to adorn my nails are glitter, rhinestones, studs, glequins :D . . . I like talking to you guys . . . OK! So what am I trying to tell you. I DONT LIKE TAKING PICS. (So says the woman who claimed to love photography. *sigh* )

So many manis I adored, have gone about without taking pictures. Do I regret that!!!! No! I dont :P. I am just lazy. While I don't post often, I do manis whenever I can. Many go without being photographed and some I do and they sit idle in my lappy.

So, I decided to visit them all and pull my favorite out. And here it is. . . Butter London No More Waity Katie . . . You can't go without falling in luv with this one.

"No More Waity Katie" is a greyish purple base with lilac glitter. I could see some silver glitter too but is it just me? I used 3 coats. The first coat may be a little daunting when you apply it. But after 3 coats you get such a gorgeous finish. 

I didn't want anything to take away its loveliness so I thought I'd do Glequin french manicure. This was uber pretty to look at. 

Removal was a bit difficult for me. You can see the glitter remnants in the cuticle area. But if you are using the foil method it will be a breeze to remove.

Sandwich my flowers . . .

This is something I tried a few weeks back but didn't post. I didn't have the confidence to post it. But it actually got me compliments :)

The original nail art that inspired me is by oliveviewfashion. I actually saw this  few months back and wanted to try something similar but I couldn't find the original one so I did it from my faulty memory. But I did manage to track it down finally.

I did 2 layers of Sinful colors Just You Wait and then did a few flowers and then a layer of the polish before doing a few more flowers and one coat of the polish. Finally applied top coat over it. Its super easy and looks gorgeous too. Sinful colors Just You Wait is not a jelly; its rather a sheer creme.

Base Coat: Sephora 3 in 1 Base Coat

Starbucks Polka Dots #ILLnailchallenge

Me and my girl gang from the ILL group are doing a weekly challenge. #ILLnailchallenge I don't normally do challenges but this time is different. It's by our gang and I decided I was doing it no matter what. The title for this week is ""Polka Dots"

I decided I was gonna do the usual polka dots. And then i went to starbucks. The cup holder for hot stuff was a gorgeous pink with their insignia in green and white. I then decided it was my colors for polka dots. And hence the name "Starbucks Polka Dots" #ILLnailchallenge

I used my all time favorite Jordana Berry Parfait as my base. I luv it everytime I wear it.

Glitter Gradient

I didn't do any mani for rakshabandan but later on decided to use this mani for rakshabandan. Why????? I remember rakhis having multitude of colors (you know what I mean). . . Glittering. That's how I remember it. We don't have the custom of rakhi in our community though.

I am not so much of a glitter person on my nails but recently I have been wanting to do it . . . Dunno why. And then I saw this Nicole By OPI *Selena Gomez Edition* Confetti Fun. Such a gorgeous glitter. I could see silver, blue, gold, pink, green and what not. 

I didn't take a mani picture at first. I was so busy enjoying the polish. Then I decided to re-do it with little change. I used two base colors this time. (Will tell you the reason later) First time I did it with pink base. It was so gorgeous. I mean seriously pretty with all those colors winking at me. 

The next time I did it, I did two finger in black and the rest pink. I wanted to show you guys how different they are over various colors and how they seem to reflect the base color too without completely overpowering it. Look my ring finger how the glitter seem to project various colors but in my thumb it seems to be predominantly pink.

I used the dab dab method to apply the glitter. It was pretty easy to apply. It seems to go off easily too when   using the foil method . . . I use the foil method to remove my nail polish pretty much every time.

Base Polish: Jordana Berry Parfait and Rimmel London Black out
Glitter Polish : Nicole by OPI Confetti Fun
Base Coat: Sephora 3 in 1 Base coat
Top Coat: Butter London Hardwear topcoat.
