Nonostante abbia già reso nota la mia anima “grinchosa” nei confronti di San Valentino, ho deciso di cimentarmi in qualche manicure cuoriciosa per dare qualche idea semplicissima e veloce per chi volesse osare con qualche dettaglio in più sulle unghie rispetto ad un classico smalto rosso o rosa. Ovviamente non sono manicure da sfoggiare solo per questa festa, anzi le trovo abbastanza adattabili a tutti i periodi dell’anno.
La prima l’ho realizzata sulle unghiette della mia cuginetta Beatrice, che nonostante abbia ormai una certa età e non sia più l’ultima arrivata, continuo a chiamarla cuginetta :P.
Mi sono liberamente ispirata ad un modello di bigliettino da visita trovato su Moo, che aveva un semplicissimo disegno di un cuore come cucito su un pezzo di stoffa.
Le unghie di Bea sono molto piccole ma ho cercato di ricreare comunque l’effetto stendendo una base molto scura, Mexico di Mavala, un viola con dei bellissimi riflessi e poi ho utilizzato per le “impunture” (si dirà così?) Frozen Berry, un lilla sempre di Mavala, stendendolo con un pennellino da nail art molto fino. In alternativa al pennello potete tranquillamente utilizzare uno stuzzicadenti.
Sulla prima mano che ho realizzato ero stata meno precisa, per questo vi consiglio di tenervi il disegno vicino e di seguire quello tracciando piano piano il disegno.
Sulle mie unghiette ho invece realizzato una variante più discreta, decorando solo l’unghia del pollice.
Oltre a realizzare lo stesso tratteggio effettuato sulle unghie di Beatrice, ho aggiunto un cuoricino in fimo rosa, comprato nelle rotelle di decorazioni dai cinesini sotto casa. Il risultato è molto discreto e a mio avviso piacevole.
La seconda proposta l’ho realizzata dopo essere rientrata dalla Fiera di Roma per la Roma International Estetica. Ispirata dai nuovi acquisti, in particolare dallo smalto I Herd That China Glaze e dai glitter a forma di cuoricino, ho prima steso due passate di smalto, ho steso un top coat matt per evidenziare l’effetto sabbia e poi ho applicato due cuoricini singoli sull’anulare. Ho provato anche a inserire più “cuori nel deserto” ma con le unghiette corte due sono abbastanza.
L’ultima proposta è liberamente ispirata a due proposte simili di Paola di Pallino Girl e Simple Nail art Design. Entrambe avevano proposto una base colorata e un cuore al centro ma con la tecnica della sfumatura. Avendo io un rapporto non troppo buono con questa tecnica e volendo provare i peletti per l’effetto velluto che mi aveva consigliato Jess, ho riadattato la nail art in questo modo:
Per realizzarla ho prima di tutto creato una base di colore con You’re Blushing di Orly. Successivamente ho disegnato un cuore sull’unghia con lo smalto e ho immerso l’unghia nella polverina precedentemente versata su un foglio di carta. Una volta coperto tutto lo smalto ho battuto via la polvere in eccesso e fissato il cuore pigiando sopra i peletti che lo formavano.
Se non fosse già chiaro, l’ultima è quella che preferisco, anche se realizzandola ho soffiato ovunque la polverina (il momento di distrazione che passa a tutti :P) e ho avuto il terrore di non potermi più lavare le mani fino al momento della rimozione.
Per quest’anno è tutto, non sono molte proposte ma sono semplici e veloci 🙂
E voi quale preferite?Realizzerete nail art o trucchi particolari per San Valentino?

Quel China Glaze glitterato è troppo carino *_* e anche il viola di Mavala!
L’effetto velluto viene bene, visto? Anch’io preferisco solo le decorazioni e non tutta l’unghia o comunque non tutte!
Sì, mi piace da impazzire, non pensavo!Adesso vedo se prendermi altri colori 😀
la seconda con il china glaze (ti ho sorpreso dì la verità? hahaha) mi piace molto 🙂
Oh mamma non me l’aspettavo! w l’effetto sabbia 😀
vedi, riesco ancora a stupirti hahahahah
Cuoricino Chanel *____*
Ihih, quando li ho visti dai cinesini sotto casa non ho resistito 😛

layout of your site? Its very well written; I love what youve got

of text for only having 1 or two pictures. Maybe you could
space it out better?
