Valentines Day Vocaloid Inspired Gray and White Hearts Nail Art Tutorial

-
Hello guys! Today is Valentines Day, so happy Valentines Day, guys! To celebrate this holiday, I will be posting my last Valentines Day nails. I know, I'm sad too, but that doesn't mean we can't enjoy them!


A very little known fact about me is that I love anime and other related media such as vocaloid, light novels and manga. These nails are inspired by a vocaloid song called 'two-faced lovers'. I saw the cover of one of the video's for this song, which were grey and white hearts on a grey and white background, and thought 'ooh, pretty....hey, this would look good on my nails', which is my thought process for most things, and so here we are! I really wanted to do the song justice, since it is an absolute classic, and I am pretty happy with how these turned out! The polishes that I used for these nails were Essie Blanc and Heavy Metal from Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear.


Alright! First step! On a white base coat, take your grey polish and using the brush from the bottle, swipe the brush over the nail until you have covered half the nail in grey polish. I recommend wiping the majority of the polish off of your brush, otherwise things might get a bit messy. Also, it doesn't matter the nail isn't divided in half very neatly or symmetrically, as by the end you probably won't even notice! So, no stressing, okay?


Next up, take a little nail art brush and white nail polish and draw half of a heart on the grey section.


Complete the heart outline by drawing the other half in grey on the white half of the nail.


Lastly, complete the heart by filling in each half of the heart in it's respective colour (the half of the heart on the grey side should be white and the half of the heart on the white side should be grey)!


Now these nails are complete, doesn't it feel good, guys? I saved this post for last due because the inspiration for these nails is a very disturbing twist on the concept of love and I wanted to do something a little different for my very last Valentines post of the year. Who knows? Maybe I will make that a tradition. Anyway! I wanna know what you think! Do you like these nails? What have you got on your nails this Valentines Day? Have any of you guys heard or or have listened to vocaloid? Let me know right here in the comments or on Instagram and Pintrest (my username is thegoodnailsblog). I also have a video tutorial for these nails on my Instagram page, if you guys are interested in seeing the tutorial in action.
May your nails be good!
Gabby

Sinful Colours New Shades 2019 Full Collection Swatch and Review

Helloooo! Helloooo! Heloooo! Oh my! I am really very, very excited to present to you all a new collection swatch and review from Sinful Colours! This is the new core collection from Sinful Colours for 2019, which consists of 8 nail polishes. The slightly oddity here is that there are two nail polishes that I haven't seen in the other collection reviews; these being Holo Back and All Jokes Acia'd. It's possible that they are exclusive to Australia or maybe were released a little later than the rest of the collection? Those are my running theories, but if anyone knows please share your awesome information down below in the comments section! Y'know, when I do a collection review I never know which polish to start with! Do I choose something that works well as a representation of the overall collection? Do I pick my favourite or least favourite? Do I just pick whichever swatch photo I see first? Yep, the last one, it's always the last one, otherwise I'll never choos...

Sinful Colors Vanessa Hudgens Jungle Beat Collection Swatch and Review

Hello everybody! Today is a very, very, very exciting day for this blog because this is my first ever swatch and review of a collection! I was super pumped when I started seeing polishes from the Vanessa Hudgens collection around October, and picked up the four polishes that were available. When I brought my polishes home and looked them up, I was only able to find two of them on the Sinful Colors website, which were apart of the festival collection. I only found a swatch or two of the other polishes that I picked up and no mention of them from SC on their website. As time went by and more Vanessa Hudgens polishes started popping up, I noticed the same thing happening; these polishes didn't seem to exist! It was not until I saw a display at a Priceline store that I rarely visited that it finally made sense; these polishes must have been from a separate collection which had yet to be announced. And so, this is how I came to realise these were apart of the 'jungle bea...

Sinful Colors Vanessa Hudgens Winter Collection, Full Collection Review

Hello everybody! I'm so very excited today because we will be looking at the Sinful Colors Vanessa Hudgens collaboration collection for winter! I just adore the Sinful Colors/Vanessa Hudgens collaboration polishes, they are some of my favourite polishes in my collection, so my expectations for this collection were very high (almost as high as my excitement levels!). This is a 12 piece collection (the last collection aka the Jungle Beat collection only had 8 polishes but the Festival collection also had 12, just a fun little fact) and every single one of them is shimmer polish; not a single creme in sight! This differs from the the other collaborations, which all had at least a few cremes thrown in there. But, I'm not too upset about that; I LOVE shimmer polishes, and after swatching a collection that was pretty much completely made up of creme polishes (none other than the Sinful Colors New Shades collection), I am happy to be swatching these shimmery beauties! Oh! And, before ...
