This is only the second post since I decided to start creating my own original characters (OC in short). In such a short time, my wonderful friends on Instagram and YouTube have offered me more than 20 super detailed ideas for my new OCs! I feel so lucky to have such talented and thoughtful friends supporting my decision…♡
Today’s nail art is my second OC named Yaqoue (pronounced “ya-kwii”)! I’ve created her with a huge amount of help from a kind girl, Crackee who told me the details about Yaqoue in one of my YouTube video comments a while ago.
I brought some shooting stars and a butterfly into this mani, because Yaqoue is from space and I added a butterfly theme to her outfit.
For the sparkly butterfly, I’ve used a blue mirror foil from BeautyBigBang. I’ve been using the foils so many times because they’re so thin and easy to use, also I’m in LOVE with how the colour shifts depending on its angle.
This is a close up of Yaqoue. She is eating her favourite food, a slice of galaxy pizza! She is 18 galaxy years old, living in a tiny apartment away from her mother, whom she misses everyday.
From the sound of it, I think she has been forced to be in the current situation, like she is on a mission of some sort. Hehe, I haven’t properly thought about her background story yet. I’m hoping to create a story that can fit in with my first OC Finn.
To be honest, I wanted her to look cool by giving her the upward slanted eyes, but I gave her the big round eyes instead for some reason. So I’m not really happy with her face, but I really like how her blue galaxy hair turned out!
Here is the video on how I created this nail art – I hope you enjoy!
The blue glitter I used for the sugar nail on my pinky is from Banggood.
It was a part of my brand new 24 glitter set – Oooh! There are so many gorgeous colours and I can’t wait to try them all!!
During the designing process for Yaqoue, I was torn between the colour schemes of violet and blue. I tested the violet scheme on my “other hand” and I really liked it, but just before starting to film, I decided to go for the blue scheme following Yaqoue’s hair colour. I know, I’m not very good at making up my mind LOL
So! I hope you liked my second original character 🙂 It’ll be really cool if I could create a series that is dedicated to my OC… hehe maybe I’m too ambitious at this point.
Thank you for your visit!!

Minnie your nail art designs are soooo pretty!! I love how the star at the end and the little dots make such a huge difference! Plus the sugar nail added such a nice effect. Love your videos so much, lots of love <3
Awww!! 💕 Thank you very much for your SUPER sweet comments!! 😻💞 I’m really glad you like my videos and it means so much to me when someone watches them so closely like you do!! Lots of LOVE to you too, Rishi!! 😽💋💖✨💕
Do you use a crystal file? Love your videos!
No, I’ve never used a crystal file before! I’d love to try it though!! 💖 I use a regular emery board (wooden one) 😸👍 Thank you very much for watching my video!! 💗💖✨
Minnie!! This design is soooo cuteee!!! I wanted to try and free hand on my thumb but I’m having a problem with my thumb that I was hoping you could help me with. I used to be a severe nail biter. I quit about a year ago. On my both of my thumbs I bit very deeply into the corners. Now some of the nail won’t grow back there, it’s just a small piece of nail bed while the rest of the nail is still growing, this part just stays the same and won’t grow back out. What should I do? ;-;
