Learning from the best: The amazing VivCat class!

Tags

Bullet Nails, Catherine Wong, Designer nails, Duchess nails, Lipstick nails, Nail Art, Stiletto-edge nails, Viv Simmons, VivCat design

I am extremely happy today because I went for the amazing class held by one of the two top gurus in the world-Catherine Wong and Viv Simmons.

I’ve always wanted to learn the gorgeous edge-shaped nails and lipstick-shaped nails but never knew where to learn these designer nail shapes. Then, I got wind of the class Miss Catherine was holding with Miss Viv Simmons and I knew I HAD TO ATTEND the class!

We got to learn 4 nails shapes today, in actual fact 6 because 2 of the nails were combined to make to of the shapes that weren’t included.

The designer nail shapes are: Bullet nails, Lipstick nails, Duchess nails and Edge-stiletto nails.

We also got to learn how to create fascinating nail art designs with different ways of layering and using different mediums to create textures.

I HAVE TO WARN YOU THOUGH, THIS IS A PICTURE HEAVY POST!

This is the gorgeous Jeans in lipstick nail shape(the details are amazing!):

This is the Duchess nail shape:

This is the Stiletto-edge nail shape:

And lastly, the Bullet nail shape (look at how GORGEOUS the flowers are!):

The above is the original work from the gurus, and here’s mine, they are my very first attempts in a very short time so pardon me if they aren’t as perfect.

 

I had so so so much fun and I loveeeeeeee the class that came with awesome goodies:

 

I hope you enjoyed the pictures as much as I do!

Floral nails that Mary chose!

Mary’s one of the client that challenges me to various designs!

Its good but it makes me nervous at the same time.

This time, she chose local pioneer nail guru ClaraH’s summer nails and this is my take(I try but watercolor nails aren’t my forte).

Show me some mercy with the comments you ClaraH fans! =/

But before that, look at her previous set! Stickers all intact!

 

By far the most glamourous nails I’ve done!

Stella’s Xueyi’s friend and she came for her second visit, this time she opted for something really glamorous to wear to Xueyi’s wedding!!!

This design’s also done on gel extensions!

Stella picked a challenging set from Nail Max that the awesome Japanese ladies submitted for a clamshell egg competition and I tried my best to give her what she wanted!

Overall I was really pleased with the outcome, I hope you ladies liked it too!

Back with a short post: Fidelia’s nails

I’m sorry I haven’t been blogging.

I’ve my hands full with nail practice and work!

But, I’m back with one short post!

Fidelia came to do a simple set of pastel purple nails with me. She told me she wanted something with lace, doesn’t show when it grows out and has pointed-edges, 5-petal flowers with it.

I must be honest, I haven’t done embossed flowers for a while. I felt so sorry at the same time because I didn’t have much time to do any mock-up for her, but Fidelia is very nice, very easy to work with and very accommodating, I love her!

Here’s what I came up with after discussion with her: modern french tips in pastel purple, her nails are teeny, so I chose to draw the lace on the french tips instead of above it and topped only the thumbs with the embossed flowers as the rest were really small!!!

Look how they turned out! *I’m sorry the pictures aren’t clear enough, I tried my best to capture the lace. 😦

Lolita Checks for Winnie!

Winnie has always been one of my favorite clients of all times!

She arrives on time, is always polite, always book her appointments beforehand and is quick to decide on her nail art designs!

She has gorgeous long nail beds too!

Every session has been an enjoyable and hilarious one for me, I love chit-chatting with her, she is SOOOOOOOOOOO CUTE and funny!

This time she came for a little Lolita checks! She told me she wanted checks, lace and ribbons!

We decided on a purple base, Artistic Color Gloss Fly, instead of red and black of the initial picture she sent me for inspiration as she felt that the red and black combination is too “chrismassy!”

Here’s the awesome set which I love so much!!!

(This set took a long time because I was struggling to draw accurate lines for the checks with my striping brushes-they got me nowhere. I was so so glad that I reverted to my original tiny brush which allowed me to work at least 50% more of the initial speed when I was using the hateful striping brushes-they just couldn’t get my lines straight! Weird!)

Thank you Winnie, for all the awesome sessions and for being so patient with me!

Can’t wait till our next session in three week’s time! ❤

All bears gather here!

Mary challenged me to a set of “beary” nails!

This was what came out of it:

The characters are from Suzy’s Zoo(nail stickers) and also my favorite bear Rilakkuma!

The rilakkuma 3D art design credits to Asis Weng.

Yes that’s right, your eyes aren’t playing tricks on you!

That’s a bear sleeping on its side!

Mary was brave enough to wear it on her nails (usual acrylic art are all done flat on the nails for easier recognition, but I tried one out that’s on its side and Mary was game enough to wear it because she thinks its really unique!)

I absolutely love this set!

Cute characters!

Mary asked for Suzy’s zoo bear (she also gave me a link to nailist Momo’s art) and I was so caught up with the love of acrylic nail art I tried my hand with quite a few characters!

Rilakkuma, korilakkuma, pony and carebear and the doggies credits to amazing nailist Momo!

The rest I tried on my own from figurines that surface from my google search!

Hope you like them!

A simple set with bows!

Stella’s 1st Visit: Abstract florals!

Acrylic Extensions, Angelpro gelly polish no. 47, bohemien, Floral, freehand nailart, gelish cream dream, orange, tribal, white

Stella’s a client recommended by XueYi, my lovely client!

She has quite a few weddings to attend this month and decided to pick a set of manicure to match her floral dress.

She had really short nails and requested for a little lengthening! (Her job requires typing hence we couldn’t extend her nails too much!)

This design is from one of the past issues of Nail Max! I adapted the design to the size of her nails and changed the color scheme from black and white to orange and white to match the dress she would be wearing!

I really love how this set turned out!

Especially the orange nails, they seem to look lighter colored than it did when I did XueYi’s bohemian nails!
