Pink Friday

Hey friends ♥

You deserve a mani post from me.  Especially after putting up with all the non-nail stuff,  you surely do.  So here it is... sweet, short and to the point:  

Color Club Electro Candy

I love this color.  It looks fantastic.  It makes me happy. ♥

31 Day Challenge - Day 13: animal print

Hey!

31 Day Challenge - Day 10: gradient

Hi.  =)

This challenge has taken me to try mani art that I have meant to try before, but never actually have.  The gradient is one such tecnique.  I had a vision of charcoal-holo-tips and I'm unsure if I suceeded. 

I'll let you be the judge.  Please comment and let me know, k?   K!  =)

I did a ton of things to get this mani.  This was the final version:

Orly Au Champagne and Color Club Revvvolution

For this final version I just painted my two colors on the make-up sponge & dabbed/rolled over the original polish, then hit it with topcoat.  The gradient blend got softer; better, not perfect but enough that I could stand to wear this mani for a few days.  
 

31 Day Challenge - Day 9: rainbow

Hello!

"It's a double rainbow all the way... woah... It's so vivid... what does this mean?!"**
**This is a redunculous You Tube vid that went viral a while back. Cllck at your own risk. ;-)

Truth is, it means I had done two rainbow manis and I had two pictures, so why not post them both.  =)



     

 

31 Day Challenge - Day 8: metallic

Hi!

I feel a little guilty posting today's challenge.  Let me show you first and elaborate on my nonsense later:

NOTD: A Last Summer Fling

My summer of fun is about to come to an end... and I'm ok with it.

As I try to conclude my personal summer challenge (to wear 50 untrieds from my collection) I decided to recreate this mani by celebrity nail artist Leah Light (her facebook page is to die for btw) with corresponding colors from my stash.  (With this mani I stand at 41/50. Woo!)

This is the inspiration photo...

...and this is my version of it:

NOTD - A Bad Case of The Blues

Hi!  This super quick post is dedicated to my friend, Ginger Eleanor. ♥



"A Bad Case of The Blues"

I will update it with more info on the colors used laters today. Right now, my car has a doctor's appointment.  =(    All better now!  Let's get on with the show, shall we?

I have a personal summer challenge going.  It's just a little list of some things that I want to get done.  I keep it as an album on my facebook page, so it's ilustrated.  One item is "to wear 50 untried polishes from my collection".  So I found a cool picture online and I've used that as my inspiration/representation: Fab Fatale's blue ombre nails.  "A Bad Case of The Blues" here is my interpretation of this fab mani. ♥ 

Want to know more about the ten colors I used? 

NOTD ♥ Holos ♥

Hey! 

Still on Holiday, but i still managed to leave some posts scheduled.

Holos ♥  They're gorgeous. Why had I not encountered these before?!  I thought I'd died and gone to heaven when I found these babies at an EPIC dusty nail supply store:
