♡Simple & Cute Hime Gyaru Deco♡

Hope you like my princess nail clippers ♡ 

Many people have uploaded what they have

decorated but havent given instruction

on what kind of glue they use etc.

I hope my video can help you make kawaii

things !!

My Deco pieces are from:
http://fullmoon07xxx.ocnk.net/
So try ebay or a craft store.
It doesnt matter where you get your
stuff as long as its cute !
: ) Oh & Etsy.com always has pearls
hearts and rhinestones.

It took about 1 hr to set completely
as I used delayed epoxy glue.
If you havent done deco-ing before
which I hadnt, then its best to use
a delayed epoxy glue.
Once you get more confident go for the
fast drying.

This diagram shows the diff ways to 

lay out your rhinestones/pearls. But,
I just made up my layout as I went along.
It is VERY relaxing and fun to decorate things.
Take a break from homework &
Give it a try !

Make your own nail stickers !

What you need:

Scissors

Plastic Bag

Nail Polish

Tweezers

The only nail polish I have found that do not work well 

is those clear-ish glittery ones.

There isnt any nail paint in those usually so they dont work as well.

Experiment and have fun.

Im going to experiment with making lace for nails and 

3D looking stickers as well.

Stay tuned.

Cutie Bow Nailsssss

I love pink, bows & glitter.

I created a simple nail design with all 3 !

I used a sharpie marker for the bow. 

They make life easier for special designs

because they dont require drying time & are more

precise.

Love your nails ! Keep them Healthy !

Have you tried to cut your own hair by your self or

bite your fingernails?

Hair and nails are made of the same protein that is 

called keratin. 

It has a very strong structure which is why you 

need special tools to cut them properly. 

Nails are a part of your skin & they protect the

fingers from  injury.

Nails grow on top of the fingers & toes, and healthy nails

are usually pinkish. Pink nails means the body not only

has a rich blood supply, 

but also it's in good health. 

Nails should not be bitten but trimmed neatly 

about once a month. Do not let them grow too long.

Many people suffer from brittle nails that break easily.

You should eat high-quality protein foods

such as nuts and seeds.

To keep healthy nails, people should keep in mind that

proper nutrition and adequate

vitamins and minerals guarantee smooth and firm nails.

Gothic Lolita Nails

" Lolita Fashion (ロリータ・ファッション ) is a fashion subculture in Japan that

is primarily influenced byVictorian children's clothing as well as costumes 

from the Rococo period. Lolita has made this into a unique fashion by adding 

gothic and original design elements to the look. "

I made nails influenced by the clothing - not by what sort of nails

they normally have cuz I have no idea what they look like. lol. 

P.S - I totally freaked myself out at the end of this video. Lol ! 

Im wearing the hat from my halloween costume - I was a gothic lolita last yr.

Online Nail Order

I ordered billions of things from this site

last night.

http://fullmoon07xxx.ocnk.net

They have such cute lovely stuff for your nails !

They have all you need to make those Japanese style nails.

I really wanna try Hime Gyaru nails. 

Hime Gyaru = lots of white, pink , bows , lace , fluff 

Basically princess-like. 

A lot of people in Japan dress in this Rococo influenced style. 

Here are some of the things I got

I got lots more things but you will see later.

The last pic is stuff to decorate your ipod, camera 

or whatever you want.

Gonna buy some epoxy glue and try to decorate

an ipod case.  

I saw nail techs in Japan decorating their phones

like this when they had no customers.

Cute ! 

Heres an example of what I wanna do:

My Mac is Nail Polish Proof !

Um.. So I spilled Nail Polish on my 
beloved computer...



Once I did that with my old HP and
I put a little nail polish remover on a q tip 
and tried to rub it off and it

totally discolored the area.
Eek !!! But with this aluminum comp 
it worked like a charm. Horray ! 

I love you my darling mac.


P.S - Im in love with this new skin
I bought yesterday. Hot Pink with
a touch of Salmon. 

Ocean Gradiation

I love gradiation nail art. Its so pretty !
You can use many different colors & 
use glitter/rhinestones to dress it up. 
For this tutorial I wish I had star 
rhinestones or something else fun

Maybe I should just paint a fish 
on one of my nails to make it
extra ocean-ish : )

Here is my basic guide in in the 
form of a ghetto diagram :

1. Blank Area
2. Light Color
3. Mix of Light & Dark Color
4. Dark Color
5. Dark Dark Color

After I finished I swiped a silver glittery color
all over the nail to give it more of a fun look.
It also helped to blend everything together
even more.

Shapes & Peeves

Everyone has a naturally different nail shape. 

It is determined by the width or length

of your nail bed.  But no matter what you can 

always buff and file your nails into a desired shape.

There are even nail polish tricks to make your nails

look a better shape. Google it.  

No matter what nail shape you choose please dont

go for those extreme 1 inch + lengths. 

They will get in the way not to mention look horrid. 

Haha ! 

“Squoval” Nails seem to be most popular right now.

As you can tell by the name the nails are squared off

but not harshly.The edges are a bit rounded off.

They look clean cut and modern and not tacky.   

Speaking of tacky...

Can people PLEASE get over these kinds
of acrylic nails?

 

Hello ?! 

How much more fake can they look ? 

Yes, a lot of the nail designs on various acrylic nails

is well done...but the length and shape of the actual

fake nail always looks so hideously tacky.

Its so easy to grow nails out to the perfect length.

In 2 months you could have a good length nail.

Why pay for ghetto-ness..

P.S - Im also over the classic french manicure.

Im sorry , I just am ! 

Ooooh You know who always has
nice squared off wonderfully 
polished nails ?!

Now I shall leave you with this :

Disturbing Nail Photo Du Jour

Zebra Nail Fun

I felt like doing something summery 
and different.I have an addiction to
pink nails and wanted to break out
of that box for a moment. 
I used Yellow, Hot Pink,  Teal,
Orangey-Red & Taupe 

for the base colors.

You could try this with just
1 or 2 colors as well.

You could draw your own guide

or use this one roughly.

Draw these sort of lines in a miniature form

on your nail. Any combo of these lines

will come out looking good. 

I used a Black Nail polish with a
thin brush from Etude House on my 
left hand & after I filmed the
video I tried out a black from
Color Club on my right hand. 

It worked perfectly as well.
It had a long thin brush 

but I still felt like I could control
the lines.

Have fun !

Heres the video of me doing mine.

It was kind of difficult to show. 
Hope you can get it.

Once you start it becomes easier. 
Practice on paper first ! 

My First Nail Tutorial

OPI - Fiji Weejee Fawn

Etude House - Hot Pink

Etude House - Silver Glitter 

Etude House - Rhinestones 

I painted the nails with 
Fiji Weejee Fawn, Added
random blobs of pink then 
went on the outside 
with a toothpick/pen/match 
Whatever I have handy
and did the black bits.
After that I added some
stripes with glitter polish
& Rhinestones

( Had a video of this but 
I removed it as it was 
hard to see / crap 
quality )
