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 Nails, The 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!

Rimmel- I Lilac You

Hello everyone!!

So today I have a gorgeous purple creme to share with you! Rimmel I Lilac You is just amazing! I have way too many purples this shade... wait, what am I saying? You can never have too many light purples!!

Look how pretty!! I really like this purple! The only thing I don't like about this polish is that the brush is like SUPER PRO EXTRA wide and my nail beds are pretty small. It was a little hard to apply, especially to my pinkie. Other than that, this polish is awesome!

I want to try out some other colors in the new line! Let me know in the comments below if you have any recommendations!

Thanks for stopping by!!

Pastel Polka Dots!

Hey everyone!

So today I have a Spring colored mani for you guys! I really like these four colors together!! And of course, they are all pastel!! I have seen this design/pattern a couple of times on Instagram, and I knew that one time or another I was going to have to try it out!

I absolutely love these colors together! They are:

pinkie- Sinful Colors Unicorn
ring & index- Color Club Blushing Rose
middle- Essie Go Ginza
thumb- Sinful Colors Sugar Rush
For the polka dots I used a small dotting tool and white acrylic paint.

Here are the colors without the dots. I think they make a great pastel skittle!

Thanks for stopping by!! Have a great Easter weekend!!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Hey guys!

So today I didn't really do any nail art for St. Patty's Day, but I did do an inspired mani using traditional colors. I'm not too big on holiday nails, and this one was no exception. Hopefully later on when I do improve on things such as watermarbling, gradients, and tape manis, holiday nails will be fun!

So since my nail art skills aren't the greatest, I have a simple green and gold manicure to show you guys. The green is OPI Jade is the New Black, and Sephora by OPI Only Gold For Me Top Coat.

Although this is simple, I do like it. I really love Jade is the New Black! And of course, who can't love a gold glitter top coat? I know I do, considering I have 3 of the Only Gold For Me Top Coat!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope everyone enjoys the holiday!

Liquid Sky Lacquer- Golden Rose

Hello all!

Today I have a polish for you from Carolyn at Liquid Sky Lacquer that is called Golden Rose. This polish is absolutely amazing! Here I am wearing 1 coat of Golden Rose over 2 coats of Sinful Colors Cotton Candy. I got this polish back in December of 2012 and I'm not sure why I haven't worn it until now! I love it so much!

Just look at it! I was staring at my nails constantly!!

I also really love Cotton Candy! It looks great on its own!

Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to go check out Carolyn's shop for more polishes including, holos, thermals, and a new spring collection!

Striped Nails ft. Pure Ice

Hey gals!

So today I have a look for you guys using 3 Pure Ice polishes from the Limited Edition collection. The three I picked up a while back were Hot Rocks, Black Velour,and Stunning. Therefore those were the three I used to create this look! I started with a base of Black Velour, then added a stripe down the middle of the nails with Stunning. I really liked the diamond shaped glitters in Hot Rocks, so I used some for glitter placement.

Some may think it to be too much, but I am kinda diggin' it! One of my close friends told me that it looked like the diamonds were the people and they were walking on the red carpet.... not quite what I had in mind. I did think it was pretty funny though!

If you don't know, Black Velour and Stunning actually dry to a matte/suede finish, but I preferred them to be glossy.

China Glaze- I'm With The Lifeguard

Hey everybody! So I haven't had the best week and I decided to pull out some neons! I chose China Glaze I'm With The Lifeguard as my base, and freehanded some flower/asterisk shapes with Sally Hansen Blue Me Away and Sinful Colors Boom Boom. I really liked the way these turned out. I was originally going for a little different shape, but I like the way they ended up looking!!

I love how it's so bright! It reminds me of spring and summer, and how ready I am for them to come!!
