Cirque Colors just launched some really exciting polishes, and this time the focus is on nail art. With this 3 sets you can create jade, rose quartz and tortoise shell nails. Tortoise shell designs are all around the Internet, but most of the nails are done using gel products.

TUTORIAL | Opal nails

Nothing to disclose

This is my 3rd attempt for opal nails and I kind of like it, but I still feel that I can do it better. Anyways, I made a tutorial too, so if you like it, you can recreate it. I only made two of my nails opal, for the rest, I used one of my franken nail polishes. This blue franken np goes with the theme I think, because it's filled with flakies. I also put metal triangle charms to them too just to make them bling :D

TUTORIAL | Fine lined waves *video

Purchased by me + Press Sample

I made a tutorial (in video and picture form) for my recently posted Waves nail art. This time I used only blue colors (but I have to admit, that I like the original version a lot more!). For this nail art you will need 3 colors (the combination is endless realy...) and a white (or black or even metallic) to line with. Of course you will need a reaaaalllyyy thin striper brush (in the video you can see a fan brush made into a striper brush...oh well, my other striper brush was not good for this wavy print, because it was too stiff, so I had to improvise :DD).

TUTORIAL | Fruits

Purchased by me

I got a request about fruity nails with tutorial, so this is what I brought you today. Well, I admit that they are not the easiest to make, since they are semi-realistic, but there is so many easy fruity nailart tutorial (my fave is the one Pshiit made) on the web, so I figured I make them a bit realistic. It’s still doable, you only need a makeup sponge and a small painting brush.

Orange: Smudge some white and dark orange nail polish on the orange base, then paint the vein of the orange slice with white. Color the white with yellow and brush on some orange nailpolish in the cuticle line. Clean up your nails with acetone, and topcoat it.

Grapes: This is the easiest one. Dot some greenish-yellow polish with a dotting pen, wait until it dries and dot some light green dots. Paint the tendril and the leaf with a small brush. Clean up your nails with acetone, and topcoat it.

Watermelon: Smudge white nail polish on the red base, paint the little black seeds. Draw the light green line, then paint some vertical lines with dark green. Clean up your nails with acetone, and topcoat it.

Kiwi: Smudge some light green nailpolish on the green base. Draw some white and dark green lines. Make the little black seeds with a small brush or dotting pen. Paint the big white spot. Clean up your nails with acetone, and topcoat it.

Pineapple: Draw some diagonal lines with dark orange polish and then with light orange. Paint the pineapple’s leafs. Clean up your nails with acetone, and topcoat it.

TUTORIAL | Abalone nail art

Purchased by me

I was inspired by the NCLA Nail Wraps: Flash Fete. I really love this design, and it's not as hard as it looks.

Start with a white base and drybrush some blue, purple, yellow, pink color over it. You can add some black too, but be careful with it! When you satisfied with the colors add some black lines. Step 8: use an iridescent nail polish to create that shiny/duochrome effect.

TUTORIAL | Fall Ombre

Purchased by me

You are gonna need some makeup sponge, 6 different nail polishes , a flakie polish (I used Elf Fairy Dust) and a matte topcoat.

First ombre: You paint your nails with the 5 lightest nail polishes (leaving the darkest behind).

Second ombre: Make gradients with your sponge. Start with the second lightest.

When it dried paint your nails with a flakie nail polish, and after it dried use a matte topcoat.
