new mua cosmetics: My Amazing MUA Artistic Nails inspired by Spring/Summer Trends…

Today at MUA towers we had a little visit from an amazing nail tech girl called Maz who I follow on Twitter @ChelseaDagger_ and occasionally Maz helps out with the MUA events (recently she was at the Love hearts event) Maz kindly came into work and created these beautiful artistic nails using MUA nail varnishes and her own nail art brushes, inspired by Spring Summer 2012 trends-Pastels! I most certainly learnt lots of new techniques and tricks from Maz and will be using them in future for nail looks I create for you MUA fans. Maz has created a different look on each nail- Cherries, Zebra Print, and Roses with polka dots, Leopard print and a lace love heart! I can’t stop looking at my nails now- they are just beautiful. Now I am ready to show them off at London Fashion Week.

From the runway to high Street, nail art has emerged as a form of self-expression in which anyone can participate and I am finding lots of people are doing on a budget at the moment especially with MUA. A temporary way to feel stylish and make a statement on a budget with MUA J

It's no longer just about bold solid colours or eye-catching metallic. Inspired by celebrities beauty blogs and magazines, everyone is having a go at this new trend. Intricate floral patterns and cartoon characters, glittery mosaics, 3-D motifs with lace, gems, charms, foils, even magnets. The shapes of nails are even changing, from traditional round and square to pointy stilettos which Lady Gaga keeps rocking J

Nail art is what all celebrities like Lady Gaga Katy Perry and Nicki Minaj lend their names to. Now you can have a go at nail art from home using MUA nail varnishes, art brushes and other tools to help you create artistic nails.

Nail art is ‘The new lipstick of cosmetics’.

How did Maz create this look?

In Shade order I <3 U- £2 , 21-£1 , I <3 U-£2, for the marble effect- U ROK- £2, 18-£1(purple) & 5-£1(green)

To create the Zebra Print, Cherries, Love Hearts, Leopard Print nails Maz used her own art brushes dipped into the MUA nail varnishes and she also used MUA liquid eyeliner in Shade 5(black) £1 and with a steady hand she got creative with all the detailed designs.
