Nail Art !

I have a new hobby and I guess you can call it another slight addiction of mine. Well, I am getting into the art of doing nails. For now I buy pre-made false nails and I rock a new design every week just so I can get used to the idea of having longer thicker nails on. I am also currently in the process of ordering and buying my own acrylic supplies such as powders, brushes, tips, etc. I want to go further and learn to apply acrylic nails myself and add the gems or jewels or even make my own designs. Some people may ask, "why don't you just stick to your natural nails and paint a design yourself?" My answer, "I really suck at painting designs, but I do practice, but for now I'll stick to this because this is what I want." I was actually never into doing my nails before because I didn't want anyone to pay any attention to them, but I guess I had a sudden change of heart. It could be because of my interest of Taiwanese actress, Rainie Yang. I've noticed in all of her music videos she has her nails done and they are really pretty and not too much, but beautiful yet simple. Also, I do live on an island where tourism is what boosts our economy and a lot of the Japanese women who come over here are very pretty. They have their hair nicely colored, make-up, and nails. They are more into the louder crazy designed nails and sometimes they are longer. I prefer mine shorter though like a regular french tip size, but I guess those were my inspirations to start. I also want to own my own business one day in the future and I want to be well rounded in my business so that's why I am learning nails now. I already know hair and make-up, but I want to add on nails as well. My collection and designs are still few, but I am slowly buying more and more. I also change my nail designs every week and I love the feedback I receive from it. ^-^



The nails I currently have on now. These are probably the most simplest nails I have, perfect for everyday, a French Manicure with a little sparkle and that 1 gem added to only 1 finger is a nice touch.


I just bought these yesterday and I know they are not as simple as the ones I've been buying lately, but I had to buy it because it reminded me of Rainie Yang's nails on one of her music videos. Maybe I'll use these next week and let's see what kind of feedback I receive.



After I have more practice I plan on accomplishing these designs or at least buy nails exactly like these. Some of them may be a bit extreme, but I really adore them. What do you think about their beauty???


If finger nails can look beautiful so can toes.
