Nails nails and nails!

Hello!

I'll be posting from oldest nails to the newest, that way I can keep track of what I've done and when.

Warning! Picture heavy post!



These were my very first "nail art" gels. Before these all artsy stuff that I had made were done by using old school nail polish.


Not the usual straight french, but a pointy one(?). Sister wanted something unique with gel!


2014, near Finland's independence day, I made some fancy nail art with normal nail polish.


Not sure why I made this set... but it was pretty fun to make!


Not really a great quality picture (bare with me..), but this was the first time I mixed my own glitter gel. Do have to say, I still love the color. Need to do it again.


My very first nude ombre with glitter! This was so hard to do but I think it turned out pretty great. Trial and error!


Very simple look, nude base and some "gold" accessories. At the time, I barely had any nails, so I made this design on fake nails. I used to wear fake nails a lot, thanks to biting my nails off...


May I present to you: My very first full gel nails I did for my mother. They lasted for ages! I'm still very proud of my work that day.


I was a student at a nail salon for a while, where I had aaaaaall the colors I could think of in my use. When it was close to Easter, I started experimenting with colors.


At that point, I started to execute all the ideas I could think of!


Here are my acrylic babies. My very first acrylics I did. No one taught me, I just experimented when I had time.


At that point, I just couldn't stop anymore!


The ideas just kept on coming. Someone might recognize these if they play or know a game called Final Fantasy XIV. Or any Final Fantasy game for the moogle art.


More experimenting.


I always seem to do something unique for the ring finger.


There you go! Back on tract with the nail art.
I'm so sorry it took so long to post this, I started it as soon as I did the introduction post, but it got hectic after it. I hope you like the pictures!

My First Post

Hello everyone,

I'm Paula and this is my blog!  I just yesterday turned 25 years old and I live in Finland. I've graduated as a cosmetologist in 2014 December. I've always been very passionate about nail art and I finally get to do just that. I'm still learning everything and I thought I'd keep a blog about my "studies" and expose myself to the outer world more at the same time.

My posts will be revolving around nails but I might post some random stuff here and there. You're more than welcome to read my daily adventures with nails and life!
