Beachy Keen

Hi guys! If you're like me and aren't lucky enough to live at the beach, you may like this really simple design I decided to do. This is my first real nail "art" as far as actually painting something on my nails goes. This is much more time consuming than something like my last nail tutorial, Candy Dot Nails, but it made me smile every time I looked down at my hands!

Hi guys! I'm alive..hahah! Sorry I've been away for so long, lots of things have been going on in real life, but I won't bore you. Here's a very, very easy nail tutorial using rainbow paints and a nail dotting tool that was partly inspired by candy dots and partly inspired by this awesome manicure that Scrangie did a while ago. If you would like more information on using water-based paints, check out my blog post on them here. I hope you guys like it and are having a wonderful day!

NOTD - Flowers in the City

Hey guys! Here is my latest NOTD using some nail stickers from Nailene. I was a little iffy if they would really stay on, but it's been over a week since I put them on and they haven't budged at ALL! I did a few layers of Seche Vite on top of them to make sure they would really stay (which sounds like a lot of work, but it dries so fast that it took no time at all), and they definitely have.

I used :
China Glaze base coat
China Glaze Sexy in the City (two coats)
Nailene Bedazzle Fashionista flower stickers in blue, green and white
Seche Vite top coat
Picture
As you can see, everything is pretty much the same except for some growth and a little chipping around my cuticles. Seche Vite might be my Holy Grail nail product!

I really hope you guys liked this..I'm definitely going to try out some more fun designs using these little stickers now that I know they really stay put.

Nailene products were sent to me for consideration. This doesn't sway my views or opinions in any way, and all thoughts are my own.

Hey guys! Here's a little look at one of the new Milani 3D Holographic polishes. This is three coats and it's still pretty sheer, but it is still a nice color. It's not nearly as holographic as the China Glaze holo polishes, but I'm glad I picked this one up!

I used :
Milani 3D Holographic Polish in HD
Konad Blue Special Polish
Konad Red Special Polish
Konad M13 Image Plate

I got my Konad stuff at Wow So Cool.

Thanks for looking!

Hey guys! Here's another bright NOTD for ya..hopefully my fellow orange nuts will enjoy this one! High Hopes was a streaky mess, even after the second coat, so I decided to conceal it with a full nail design. Konad makes it REALLY easy to cover up any nail polish boo boo's!

I used :
China Glaze High Hopes
Konad Yellow Special Polish
Konad M73 Image Plate

In case you guys couldn't tell by my last couple of posts, the M73 plate is my new favorite! So cute :D

I got my Konad stuff at Wow So Cool.

NOTD - Holographic Music

Hey guys! Here is my NOTD (though it’s more like nails of the week, because I certainly don’t change them daily). I recently hauled a few new polishes and some new Konad goodies, which I will be making a video about soon, but I couldn’t wait to try this out! This is my very first holographic polish, and after trying this one out I can say it will definitely not be my last!
