Flower power!!

Easy breezy manicure today, these are Kiss Nail Dress stickers.  Each box comes with enough to create two full manicures: one is full-coverage and one is just tips.  Here's what that looks like!

Fresh Twist on French Tips

Pretty basic concept-wise, I used reinforcement stickers to create clean lines for my manicure and then used a fun mossy green color with a very light sky blue tip! Nice and springy :D

Colorful Medley

After feeling fairly disappointed with my last nails, I was pretty excited about these ones:


Painted a white coat, used a bunch of colors, just doing drops, dabs, whatever, and then when it was a little dry, used this old top coat that I don't really use anymore because it tends to smear the polish...and then put a good top coat on over it once it was dry.
  Voila!

A Gradient?

Well I've always seen people with their cool gradient style nails, that they apparently did with a make-up sponge.  And I've always wondered if I had a make-up sponge, could I do that too?


It turns out... Not really, no!  I guess there's more of a trick to it.  I put down a light pink (LA Colors Pink Bubbles) and let it dry, then sorta painted the make up sponge with a couple pinks and purples and tried to dab.  Just... didn't come out the way I liked it.  Accented one on the other hand with purple glittery polish, but generally didn't like the look.  Repainting today.

Sunrise to sunset

Warmer weather is coming and I'm ready to have my “toes in the water and ass oh the sand".
First attempt at a tropical sunset in that spirit!

Spring has Sprung!

So, I've been thinking about doing some flower nails for a while and went for it today.  Well mostly- also wanted to try out some cool sequin glitter polish I picked up the other day.  Maybe if I got one of those fancy dotters I would make the flowers better?  I think they turned out pretty good though.  Just wanted colorful flowery :)

Rando

Last exam yesterday, today I just had fun experimenting and using stuff I haven't used in a while.  Nothing too exciting.
