Cunnt Claws: Mix’d Patterns

Hi guys!!!! It’s the holidays, and I really should be having fun with all the fabulous nail art motifs . However, as always- I choose the unorthodox way, and went totally left with my designs! :meee

My inspirations/ What you see:

 Negative Spacing:  Tried it for the first time when nail artist, Tracy Kawii did my nails and was hooked ever since. Also, negative spacing is a really good look for someone who cannot have intense nail art prints on their nails. The spaces that are negative can be molded into any shape, size and can be very subtle nonetheless depending on the choice of nail polish.

 Typography: Huge fan of penmanship, and I am forever tagging something up.

 Caviar Studs:  These are great for a 3-d effect, and I love the way they feel when I am in deep thoughts.

 Female gender symbol:  Feministic state of mind.mee

Hey, Nice Nails!

For the most, there was a recurrence in the usual “Christmas Tree” design, but what really caught our eyes were the trending design of the “Tree-lights” (Lovvve). Have to favor the, tree lights because it really exudes festivity being that we are currently in between holidays and you can add more than one color to a single nail (The more the merrier!). To balance out all your fancy holiday ensemble, here’s your plus one token to over exaggerate your claws with sparkles, colors, and texture!

Once again, adding to the growing list of DIY nail art goodies featured here on the, Cunnt Claws’ website- we could’nt be more  stoked to present you with yet another yummy treat! (Hint…hint: just in time for the holidays).

Stimulating nothing but desire: Brooklyn native, Ria Lopez (Ria Nailz) teams up with American pop star, Alexis Krauss of Sleigh Bells to give us some fun printed nail art wrap exclusively for New York’s nail art brand, Rad Nails. Here to represent the Bitter Rival nails wraps, nail artist Ria Lopez chats with us:

 Give us the inside scoop that stem the collaboration between you and Rad Nails?

The collaboration came about, because Alexis and I were discussing what would be a good way to give women something more then just a t-shirt at their Sleigh Bells shows. We felt like it would be cool to have something different specifically for women, and what better way then nail wraps!

 Freaking love the complementary colors of the, pink and yellow color coordination. Individually, which single nail design is your favorite? 

 I don’t have a single favorite. Alexis and I designed them with all of them being our favorites!

 Describe your signature nail art style? And how did these sets of nail wraps represent that?

 The nail wraps were inspired by, Sleigh Bells album cover artwork- which is two bad ass guitars; one pink and one yellow with tiger stripes. I don’t think I have a signature nail art style but I do try to make some; tuff, fun, badass nails and these nail wraps definitely represented that.

 When coming up with the ideas for designs- what kind of customer was the intended target?

 Our target customers were, all of the women and girls that come out to the Sleigh Bells show and they don’t have a “RiaNailz” with them.

 Will there be more nail wraps from, Ria Nailz?

 I don’t have any plans right now to make more nail wraps, but who knows what 2014 will bring.

Is it your hands? Cuz it aint your face: Tip Drill

In the late 1990s, one of the first people to be spotted with a pierced nail was, (singer-songwriter) Missy Elliot. Now, in the 21-century the cutting edge styles of , Nail Piercings are back! These style have been spotted at the, Emerson’s spring 2013 runway show, to the world of social network where we view our favorite artists nailing nail-addicts like myself and many other nail lovers this season:

On any given finger, nail charms can be pierced through your nail. From personal experience, choosing the right finger is key! Only, because nail charms tend to get attach to things or fall off without awareness. To avoid this from happening, placing nail piercing on the pinky or ring finger is greatly recommended (these fingers are used fewer than the others).

Our outright new addiction!!! For someone who love nail art,but do not fancy the full “ten-finger” nail designs, this may be good for you. One can simply get a plain color manicure, and with the nail piercing mix- nail art is still created!Light work…Get into it! TIP DRILLS!!!
