Everything is OK.

This year really is something.
I had all sorts of emotions - the best ones and, sadly, the worst ones. And it seems like every month is giving me a test, which I will pass, I promise. But I still want this year to end. New year - new life, right?
Well anyways, I was not in the mood for the nails, although I love painting them. That is why I felt like doing something easy and pretty. These nails show exactly how I feel inside - bursting with emotions (hot and cold) covered with the dark color of reality. ( Oh, I am so poetic, lol)
So here they are -

They may not be perfect, but I am OK with all those colors underneath the top coat. 
I'm OK with any challenge ahead of me. I am not afraid.

Normal is an illusion.

So it is almost that time of the year again. Halloween has always had a special place in my heart, even though the country I was born in this holiday was never celebrated. It was so sad for me that people did not understand why do I carve pumpkins all day long or do scary makeup for the evening... I just like the feeling of this day, OK? It doesn't matter if I am the only one who is excited about it.
I am glad that my  boyfriend accompanies me on these things and always agrees to watch some silly "Halloween themed" movies.(And yes, I am extremely jumpy and it is annoying to watch scary movies with me in one room but he is a trooper lol. )
Today was the best day to make a post on these nails - the weather is Autumn-ish, which I adore, my birthday is only  2 hours away and I have The Addams Family members on my nails. I mean, how cool is that?!


It was a long time since the last time I did a nail art like this one, but drawing these faces using a fishing line wasn't something annoying. Maybe because of the good mood, and eternal love for these characters, I don't know. But I sure know that I am so proud of this nail art that I cannot stop showing it off.


Oh and since it was a perfect timing for nail art, we have made a new nail art video. Awesome, right? We have changed the format so that this way we can make the videos quicker, which means more often.

Down Alondra

Today is the music-related nail art day again!
But this time I'd like to introduce you to a band called Down Alondra!
I wanted to support them a bit and made a nail design inspired by their new song called EVERYTHING.
It is pretty simple but i really like the result!

I can continue telling you how awesome they are, but you need to hear them to understand it!
for example - here is their music video 


I guess this is it for today...
Come back soon for more nail art <3

Easter Rabbits.

Today will be just a quick post with a quick and super easy nail art.
I don't have a lot of free time because of the University exams, but I had to do something quick and sweet for the Easter. And here is what I did:

Using all the fun colors, I did the background for my Easter nails.  These polishes were bought in UK in Primark in a set. I do not remember if this set had a name but doesn't matter, I'm not sure they are still selling those anyway.
Then I grabbed my acrilics and started speed-drawing bunnies on my nails. Cute and super easy - in about 2 minutes I have "bunnified" my nails. 
And in addition, I drew a cute little chick hatching from its egg for Easter.
Add a top coat and here you are - cuteness on your nails in 5 minutes.




Come back again on the weekends to see another awesome nail art! <3
And Happy Easter!

Sally hansen salon effects nail polish strips.

Hey there! It's a lazy nail art day today, because I've decided to cheat and use sally hansen salon effects nail polish strips.
I got these as a surprise present from Emmi - emmymadeinjapan and from the moment I tried them on my nails - I loved them!
These are called Heartbreaker. And the pattern.. I mean how did she know? It is a perfect choice for me!! <3
anyways I didn't want to use them ALL AT ONCE. because I'm cheap like that lol.  That is why I have decided to do the nails like this - 


A little Harvey dent look. lol get it? two face? two different sides in the nail?
Anyways I was really lucky to be able to use one strip for two nails. Because my nails are so short right now :( But is doesn't matter. Still like it.

Here is the video by the way!


Hope you enjoy watching it and thank you for reading! <3

YouTube Inspired Nail Art

Hello again!
I've been spamming new posts every day now just because I have time, mood and inspiration for it so - why not? ;)
This time I decided to do a YouTube inspired nail art for my first experience on the video tutorials.
Only fishing line, only hardcore... Well.. and a brush.
Here is what it looks like -

I really like how it turned out because it was a spontaneous decision to make this design.

The grey was actually a matte polish, but the top coat made it all blend in with the other nail polish.
And here is the tutorial -

Skelanimals Video Tutorial.

Hello!
Hope you all had great holidays! 
Today's post is going to be short and quick.
 I'd like to start  this year with a nail art VIDEO TUTORIAL!
As I never made a video tutorial before, my sweet boyfriend agreed to help me out with it.
So here is what it looks like:


I really do sound strange... I was scared to talk (I am too shy I guess), but with a little practice I will sound more confident in other video tutorials. (I hope lol)

Please, subscribe to my channel on youtube - NailAsylum

Let me know what you think!
Have a great day!

December Nail Art.

Hello again!
As I have mentioned earlier, this month will be a really stressful one for me. So much to do in so little time.
Why can't I just stay at home and do nail art for fun?
Anyways, As I didn't had enough time I figured that I should do something easy and winter themed. So here you are - 
(click to enlarge)
These patterns usually can be seen on warm winter sweaters, and as it is snowing outside it's the perfect time to start wearing them.
It's so easy to do that it does not really needs to be explained - take a toothpick and copy the pattern from any winter sweater you have.
Take time to make the lines straight. (Mine aren't neat at all, I was in a hurry to finish the design and go to bed.)
Hope you liked the nail art and here is a picture of my sweet Lady and her favorite blanket for you - 

Why? Just because she is adorable.<3

By the way, If you are interested in winter themed nail art, be sure to check out the 12 Days of Xmas challenge entries here -

Have a good day and come back next time!

Justice League Silhouettes Nail Art

This week it will be simple as it can be. Justice League Silhouettes Nail Art. I think that the white background looks the best with the black figures, but it really does not matter at all.
It was not easy to make actually, I've been trying to make it look good several times and this is how the result looks like: 
I've used a mechanical pencil to draw the silhouettes, but if you want to try this design, it is better to use  needle or a toothpick.
When making the logos on them, you can try white acrylic paint, just beacause sometimes it is easier to apply making thin details. And also, if it came out too thick , you can always fix it using black polish and a toothpick.
