Harry Potter Inspired Collection by A.T.C. Nail Polish

Above The Curve Nail Polish is soon to be releasing the Harry Potter inspired collection on September 3rd!

Featuring 9 polishes including four created by facebook fans!

Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, Sirius Black, Polyjuice Potion, Wingardium Leviosa, Spectrespec and Patronus Charm.

If you would like to see more of this collection, or purchase, other than the 4 I have please visit these outlets for ATC

Etsy Shop! Facebook! Instagram!

 

Lets get to the swatches!

Each swatch is 2 coats of polish without a top coat.

I very much loved each color I swatched. These are so beautiful in person. Siruis Black was my favorite. But to be honest all are quite yummy.

The brush is nice and flat. Picks up a good amount of polish and is easy to coat.

I was a little disappointed that the brush does not go all the way to the bottom of the bottle. BUT I am not sure if these bottles will be for sale. It may just be what was sent out for swatching purposes. And honestly the colors are so great that I would just grab and empty bottle and use that.

Its not a full size bottle but not a mini either.

 

 

Lets start with Wingardium Levosa

Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Australia 2014.Ixiah Inspired Nail Art/ Collab

 

I have the great pleasure to collab again with Krystal from beautybykrystal . So click on her name there to see more info about her beautiful manicure. And scroll down to have a looksee.

We have such a blast getting inspiration from Fashion Week. Which I must admit, the fashion itself doesn't really excite me all that much. But to put those prints on to the nail? Yup! That I can get behind.

 

This time our Designer chosen is Ixiah.

To see the rest of her collection click HERE

It is totally worth a look.

 

Products used for this mani are:

Base is from Morgan Taylor in All White Now

Matte topper is from butter London

Acrylic paint in black, white, red, neon green and lavender.

My trusty nail art brush from Stylish Nail Art Shop

Top coat is from HK

 

To create the water color look you must have the base matte finish.

And water down your paint a lot.

I don't have more picture to show the processes this time. But I do have another watercolor mani I did and put a pictorial with it.

 

 

 

 

 

Here is Krysta's super cute nails and inspiration.

 



Inspired Floral

 

These are easier than they look. When floral is so small on the nail you can get away with somewhat blotchy flowers. The key is to just keep layering.
Products used:
Base is Sinful colors in Snow Me White
Acrylic paint in red,green,white,black,pink,and yellow.
The little holo rounds are O.P.I. in Snow You Love Me
The awesome brush used is from Stylishnailshop. And you can find them here https://www.etsy.com/shop/StylishNailArtShop?ref=search_shop_redirect
