Pink and Blue Stripes Nail Art

Hello everyone! Today I've got a neat design I saw on The Nailasaurus to show you. It's a cute striped design that almost makes your nails look like they've been wrapped in something. I used Orly Passin Fruit as the base and painted the stripes with Orly Frisky. If you'd like to see Sammy's design the link above will lead you to it!




Thanks for reading!

Simple Striped Manicure

 Hey everyone! Today I'm going to share a simple design I did a couple of days ago. I wanted to add a simple design over OPI Roadhouse Blues. I decided to just do two parallel lines near the base of each of my nails. It took me a few nails to get the hang of rotating my fingers back and forth instead of my hand holding the brush, but I like the effect nonetheless.


Thanks for reading and Happy Thanksgiving to all of my American readers!

Koi Fish Nail Art (Fail)

Hey everyone! A couple of weeks ago I was scouring the internet for nail art inspiration and I stumbled across this cute koi fish nail art on Flickr in an album by picomi.


I tried to re-create this design and as you can see in the photo below, I failed terribly. Either way, I love the result the original artist got and I'm going to do this again sometime soon to see if I can do it a bit better!

Computer is fixed!

Hey all! I ran into some problems with my computer about two and a half weeks ago. I finally got a chance to get it fixed, so now I'm officially back online! I'll have a post or two up for you guys in the next day or two. Thanks for being patient!

Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Red Carpet

 Hey everyone! Today I've got a swatch of what I think is an awesome polish. This is Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Red Carpet. Red Carpet is an awesome true red glitter that is extremely similar to China Glaze Ruby Pumps. I absolutely love it! This is two coats with a top coat. I was a bit disappointed the sun didn't decide to come out during the few days I was wearing this polish because it sparkles like crazy, but you can still see the glitter in these photos, so I'll let them do the rest of the talking.
