DIY : Lac de Unghii cu Particule - Nail Polish with Particles

   In ultimul timp am vazut foarte multe lacuri decorative de unghii, insa, din pacate, nu am gasit nici unul din cele pe care mi le doream. Asa ca am decis sa imi fac singura din nou unul, insa nici de aceasta data nu am obtinut rezultatul la care ma asteptam.

  I saw lately many decorative nail polishes, but unfortunately I didn't found none of those that I wanted. So I decided to make one myself again, but I didn't got the result I expectated this time either.

   Ai nevoie de : Ambalaj decorativ, dischete demachiante, dizolvant pentru unghii, un lac transparent si o foarfeca.

   You need : Decorative wrapping, cotton pads, nail polish remover, a clear nail polish and scissors.

   La fel ca la DIY-ul precedent, si de aceasta data mi-am dorit initial ca oja sa contina mai multe culori, insa s-a dovedit ca doua dintre ele contineau coloranti care se dizolva in lacul de unghii. Am facut si acum un mic test : pe dischete am pus putin dizolvant si am sters cu acestea fiecare ambalaj decorativ:

  Similare to the previous DIY, this time I also wanted that the nail polish to contain more colors, but it has been proved that two of them contained dyestuff that dissolves in the nail polish. I made a little test: I put on the cotton pads a little nail polish remover and I wiped the decorative wrapping:

Prima data am taiat ambalajul alb (singurul care nu continea colorant) in linii foarte subtiri pentru a fi mai usor de obtinut particulele de care aveam nevoie:

First I cut the white wrapping (the only one that didn't contain dyestuff) in very thin lines, so that it would be easier to obtain the particles that I nedded:

Eu am ales ca acestea sa aiba forma de patrat si dreptunghi, insa diferenta de marime intre acestea sa nu fie foarte mare:

I chose square and rectangle forms, but try as much as possible to get the same size for all of them:

Le-am introdus pe toate in lacul transparent, insa spre deosebire de cealalta oja (in care particulele se adunau in partea de jos a sticlei de lac) acestea au ramas in partea de sus. Problema poate fi remediata prin agitarea ojei:

I put all the particles in the clear nail polish, but in contradistinction to the other nail polish (when the particles gathered at the bottom of the glass) those remained on top. The problem can be remedied if you shake the nail polish:

Eu am aplicat acest lac peste o oja de baza si una neagra, iar pentru celelalte am folosit un verde inchis:

I applied this nail polish over a base coat and a black one nail polish, and for the others I used a dark green:

Vroiam totusi sa va arat cum imi doream sa arate initial lacul decorativ si am aplicat particulele colorate folosind instrumentul pentru puncte:

I still wanted to show you how I wished that the decorative nail polish looks and I applied the colored particles using the dotting tool:
