Rainbow Nails for Spring!

 Spring is here and we've taken some inspiration from the copious of mini eggs we've consumed (as pictured above). We used 8 different colours with a pastel and bright shade of each to create this fun look!

Matte Spring Floral Nails with Deborah Lippmann 'Glitter in the Air' as the base

As Spring (slowly!) begins, today's NOTD are these spring florals using Deborah Lippmann 'Glitter in the Air' as the base - a fabulously minty glitter that is the perfect backdrop for these beauties!

Happy polishing!

Check it out! We created this template to plan our nail art and keep track of the polishes we're using. 

Print this out and write down the polish names, add a quick swatch, and sketch or draw on your designs! We've included it here as a photo file that you can save and print, or you can download the larger pdf version here!

Hey everyone!

We tried to match our ultimate summer favourites - our Ray Ban Green Flash aviators! We used a sponged gradient of O.P.I. Angel with a Leadfoot, Essie Vices Versa, Sally Hansen Dive In, and Essie I'm Addicted over two coats of O.P.I. Push & Shove to create this super fun look. Check out the video tutorial to see how we did it!



This looks super amazing in the sun... If you try it out, let us know by tagging us @knailart or using the #knailart everywhere social!

We have always considered gel nails, as when we have a nail break it impacts the size of our tiny canvases! We decided to take the plunge and try out Bio Sculpture Gel nails with Bio Sculpture Gel Canada - and we were super excited with the result!

Bio Sculpture Gel is the only gel to have a clinical trial and a five-star safety rating, and soak off without acetone! We wore these for two weeks before our impatience kicked it, but we think we could have stretched it one or two more weeks (if we didn't have polish ADD).

Bio Sculpture Gel has three different options for flexibility, and we went with Flexi gel - the medium option! The free edge gel was added to extend the natural nail, and after buffing we were left with gorgeous, completely natural looking nails! We were totally impressed... and if you want to see the 'before' shot, click here.

We then decided to go with a bright blue coloured gel shade from their Carnival trend collection - it's number 175, Havana Nights. After that, we topped the look off with some fun feathered nail art!

Minion Nail Art with Bananas! thumb

One of our favourite online retailers, NailPolishCanada.com recently stocked some amazing A England lacquers - so we were very excited to get to try this brand for the first time, and we were not disappointed!

A England Excalibur Renaissance

Excalibur Renaissance is the most gorgeous silver chrome polish! We've been seeing so much chrome this spring with O.P.I.'s release of Push & Shove and the sparklier My Signature is 'DC', but this polish applies beautifully in two coats. We're in love.

A England Hurt No Living Thing

Hurt No Living Thing is a dusty grey jelly with fuchsia micro shimmer. This polish is an amazing summer shade, as it doesn't look to heavy on the nails, and it has great shine in the sun! This swatch is three coats, and we imagine you could reach full opacity in four.

Overall, we are super impressed with our first experience of A England! We would definitely recommend this brand and will be checking out more of their shades at NailPolishCanada.com, we've seen some of their holographic polishes and can't get enough!

Let us know what you think of these, or whether you have any A England shades to recommend in the comments!
