Sinful Colors- Endless Blue with stripes!

Hey everyone!

Today I have some simple but awesome nail art for you all! I didn't really know what I was going to paint, but this is what I ended up with! I really love the way it turned out!

Oh and I had a little break on my index, but I refuse to cut them all down!


For the base on my pinkie, ring, and thumb, I used two coats of Julie G Frosted Gumdrops in Blueberry Fizz. Then I added some freehand stripes using Sinful Colors Endless Blue and OPI Alpine Snow. For my index and middle I used two coats of Endless Blue and added some studs from Winstonia Store.


Since Blueberry Fizz is a textured polish, I used one generous coat of Gelous and then a coat of INM Out The Door for top coat.

What do you guys think? What color combo would you use? Thanks for stopping by!

Blue Swirly Stamps!

Hey everyone!

Today I have another stamping attempt to show you guys! I really loved this design, BEFORE i put top coat on it!! Oh the smudgery.. :p I should have taken pictures pre top coat.. oh well!


I love this! I started with a base of Sinful Colors Sugar Rush. Then I stamped using Bundle Monster plate BM19. I randomly dropped a little bit of Sally Hansen Blue Me Away and OPI I saw... U saw... We saw... Warsaw onto the image, scraped away the excess polish, and picked up the random design! The Bundle Monster 1st generation plates are too small for my thumb.. so I didn't get the whole image onto my nail.


I think that this reminds me of a fake watermarble! It looks so cool! What do you think about it? Thanks for stopping by and reading!

Lolli Pop Lolli Pop!

Hello everyone!

I rarely ever stamp, and I have two full sets of plates. I decided that it was about time to start stamping and get better at it! I own the first generation Bundle Monster plates, and the first generation Winstonia plates. I was looking through my Bundle Monster set and found an image that I wanted to use!

I absolutely love the Sugar Rush collection by Sinful Colors, and the stamp went perfectly with the three polishes that I used!


LOLLIPOPS!! I loved the lollipop image from Bundle Monster from plate BM02! The three colors I used from the Sinful Colors Sugar Rush collection are Sweet Tooth, Cotton Candy, and Sugar Rush. For the accent nail I started with a base of OPI Alpine Snow and randomly stamped the lollipop image all over my nail with the three Sinful Colors. Then I stamped just the big lollipop on my other three fingers.


Thanks for stopping by and reading! I hope you guys liked this!

Mix n' Match!

Hey everyone!

Recently I received my Julie G Frosted Gumdrops order from a deal Groupon had! I wanted to just try one out to see what it was like, but I didn't want to do my full hand, so I did an accent nail! I have really been into mix n' match nails lately, so why not keep it up? I went with a simple black, blue, and glitter mani!


I really love these! And I also like the texture of the Julie G polish! now for some colors!
black- Wet n' Wild Black Creme
silver glitter- Essie Set in Stones
glitter on middle finger- loose glitter that can be found in any craft store
blue- Julie G Blueberry Fizz


I am so excited to try the rest of the Frosted Gumdrops collection! What do you think about the polishes?

Thanks for stopping by!

Blue Nails for Autism- #4

Hey everyone!!

You know, I'm gonna miss doing blue nails every friday! Today is the last installment of Blue Nails for Autism. I think I am going to have to figure out something to do every Friday in the months ahead!

So for today I just have a pretty light blue polish with some shimmer in it. Sally Hansen Breezy Blue is beautiful!  Shown is three thin coats, and it goes on like a dream! Oh and other good news, my nails are finally back to being squared!!


Isn't it pretty!?!?!? On a side note, I used the Blue Cross Cuticle Remover from Sally's for the first time and I must say I am in love! If you don't have it, you need to go buy it! 5 bucks for a 16 oz. bottle, and it will last for forever!!

Blue Nails for Autism- #3

Hey everyone!
Again I say... I'm sorry for not posting all week! Still trying to let my lil' nubs grow out!

So for this Friday's blue nails, I just have a swatch! Barielle Falling Star is so pretty though!! This polish is a creme blue base with small round copper glitters. I really like the look of this polish, but it was a bit of a pain in the behind to apply. First coat was great, but the second and third coats were a little thick. Before applying a third coat, I added some polish thinner from Sally's to it. It made just the slightest bit of a difference. Anyways, onto pictures!


Oh and I am sorry for the oily cuticles, gotta keep 'em looking good!


Thanks for stopping by and reading!

Blue Nails for Autism- #2

Hello all!!

First I just want to apologize for not posting anything all week and then not posting this yesterday (Friday) when it was supposed to go up. I have had a crazy week and time got away from me. Also, 2 of my nails broke so I had to cut them all :( so I will be trying to let them grow out! Ok, onto the blue nails!!

This mani is kind of a mix n' match mani I guess you could say! It is quite similar to my pink and holographic nails. Ok, nevermind that, they are almost the exact same mani! Whoops!! I didn't mean to do that!


Although my nails are short, I'm kinda diggin' the length and the shape!

For the blue I used Pure Ice- French Kiss, which I might add is perfect! The silver on my middle finger is Sally Hansen- Celeb City and the glitter is Essie- Set in Stones.


I love this mani!! What about you? Thanks for stopping by!!

Blue Nails for Autism- #1

Hey everyone!!

 So for every Friday in the month of April, I will be doing blue nails to help spread awareness for Autism! I don't know anyone personally with Autism, but raising awareness for any disease/condition/syndrome is something that I can take part in! This will be installment numero uno for Blue Nails for Autism this April!

This Friday's blue nails are a blue watercolor! I was very excited about doing this because I have never done watercolor nails, and I was excited to give it a shot! I really like the way these turned out, especially for a first time!! I have seen watercolor nails from ladies like Chalkboard NailsThe Polished Mommy, and Chelsea's Get Nailed, and I really wanted to try it! So here's my go!


I love it! Like I said I am really glad with the way it turned out! I started with a base of OPI Alpine Snow and then I watercolored with Essie Where's My Chauffeur, Pure Ice French Kiss, and Sally Hansen Breezy Blue.


Oh and sorry for the oily cuticles, but hey, gotta moisturize! :)
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoyed!
