Ocean Escape

This summer weather is SO enjoyable! These sea shell inspired nails are perfect for a day at the pool, beach, or any summer destination! I used these tiny gold sea shell embellishments over an ombre white to blue shore-like background with gold glitter to look like sand. I hope that you like the design! I did get the idea from Pinterest.

Love for Canada

Happy Canada Day!

 

Today I am sharing a nail design that represents the Canadian flag. I have been a Canadian all my life and am proud to be! Today is the celebration of our country's birthday, so I thought it was fitting to paint a design that was a nod to that exactly. Hope you like it!

 

XO,

 

Mikayla

Abrstract Water Colour Flowers

This nail design was actually super simple to paint on because it is more of an abstract floral look. I used shades of red, pink, and teal green on a white nail polish background with an overlay of gold glitter. This design is perfect for summer and is a beautiful water colour inspired look to your finger tips. Share photos with me if you try this out, (since it is my original design). You can tag me on Instagram (@mikaylakuehn) or Twitter (@mikayla_k17) :)

Pink Prints

This nail art look was inspired by Cute Polish's original "Pretty in Pink" mix & match design. She has a video on how you can create that here. 

I love all of the different techniques used in this tutorial, and also the shades of pink, of course. 

Enjoy the rest of the long weekend, and thanks for reading!

Ombré Sunset + Glitter Leopard Accent Nail

This nail art look is perfect for Spring and Summer. I included colours of the sunset in yellow, orange, and pink in this ombré effect. I also added in a black leopard spot detailing with gold glitter for an accent nail on my fourth finger. To see how I achieved this look, watch my tutorial video here on my YouTube channel.

Using Wet Sticker Nail Decals

These adorable penguin and rabbit and baby seal wet sticker nail decals were so easy and fun to use. If you remember from my GRWM Easter 2015 YouTube video, I showed how to apply these at the beginning of the video. (I used some for an Easter nail look as well!) For this nail look though, it is super cute but more of an everyday design. I used adorable pastel colours and took some photos with fun spring-themed props as well.
