Kiinalainen uusivuosi on tulossa, tänä vuonna on siis hevonen vuosi! Punaiset koristeet on meillä hyvin yleistä uutena vuotena, koska punainen tarkoittaa onnea. Tänä vuonna vuosi vaihtuu 31.1.

Pari kaverit pyysi että tekisin heille uuten vuoden kynnet, niin ajattelin sitten etsiä vähän inspiraatiota ja postaa tänne myös näitä.

Chinese new year is coming, this year is horse year~ In chinese new year the decor is mostly red, because red is about happyness and luck. This year the year change at 31. of January.

So, my friends was asking me to do nails for them because of the new year, and i searched some red nails for inspiration. This is what i ended up that i might do for them~

Tweed red and beige

Check with a bit touch gold glitter

Chinese letter luck & spring, silver glitter

Bicolor

I usually got inspiration from this app Nailbook. This is a Japanese app, so most the design is girlish and cute. In this app, users can upload their work, and there is hundreds of nail works everyday! You can search by design, color, theme etc.

Sometimes I can browse hours just to decide what i design i do.....

Käytän yleensä Nailbook- appia jos alkaa inspiraatio loppua. Koska tämä on japanilainen app, niin designi on suuri osa tyttömäinen ja söpö. Tässä app:ssa käyttäjät voivat lataa omia kynsi kuvia ja kuvia on satoja päivässä! Designia voi etsiä värin, teema yms. perusteella.

Koska kuvia on niin paljon, välillä mulla voi mennä tunteja ennen kun löydän jotain sopivaa desing....

If im looking for some more eastern, i use tumblr and pinterest.

Länsimaalaisia inspiraatiot entsin yleensä tumblrista ja pinterest:sta.

My very first gels are from mereneid, bought from I love me expo last year. Gels are great and jars are beautiful, but square jars are bit difficult to open and leak easily.

I like mereneid's builder gel, they are good to do extender and they last long. I usually use the flexible builder gel. It's also great for sealing accessory on ur gel nails. The jar is also beautiful!

I bought Gracia gels from Taiwanese retailer. I first bought them for the cute jars, but i turns out the lid was not so good also (why i always ended up with bad jars??). I bought these because they have wide selection of colors.

Gracia's brush base gel, top gel, primer and between(apply after primer) are my simply favored!

I bought Baehr from Finnish online shop because i need gold color, and fast, nothing much to say about these..

Base gel and top gel from Pregel. Next time I'm gonna order their color gels, i read lots of good review about them~

Here are all the colors i have right now. First 31 is Gracia gels, then 5 from baehr, rest are from mereneid.

Gel brushes from Gracia.

Gel brushes from Mereneid.

The rest are small part of my glitters and decoration stuff.
