Black Tip French!


Well unfortunately I had to attend a funeral the other day, and I figured that wearing bright purple nails wouldn't be such a great idea. These are what I cam up with! They're simple and elegant (: The black is "What's a Jack?" by OPI and the base color is "Snowflake Pink" by Revlon. I stamped the flower on with "White On" by Sally Hansen Hard as Nails. Here are more pics:

Alien Nails!


Well I have no idea why I think these are space-y, but it probably has something to do with the fact that I was watching Thor while doing them. They were incredibly easy to make, just used my dotting tool. I  made the design and then used a matte top coat by OPI.. this is what the base color looked like without it...

Colors: Grey/Silver: "Gunmetal" by Sally Hansen Hard as Nails
Lavender: "Lacey Lilac" by Sally Hansen Hard as Nails
Black: "Where's the Jack?" by OPI

Alternating Polka Dots!

I get so many compliments on these. They're so clean and crisp! I'm not one to wear hot pink so I didn't keep them on for long, but I think I'll do it again with blue or purple (: Just a normal dotting tool, Where's the Jack by OPI (black), and Twisted Pink by Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear. Hope you guys like them!

Glitter Cheetah :D


Woo! Well this is incredibly girly, but super cute! I used the Konad stamping tools and the place Shany Nail Art Polish for the cheetah print. And silver glitter from Love & Beauty from Forever 21! I had to make a lot of layers of the sparkles, because there just wasn't enough glitter! Maybe I'll go looking for one with more soon. Anyways! Here they are, I hope you like it (:

Simple Tribal Nails with "Blue me Away!"




Sorry they're a little bit messy, but these are my simple tribal nails. These are really fun cause you can pretty much do whatever design you want. I didn't have an actual nail pen with me so I couldn't do anything too intricate, but I really like how simple these are (: I used the nail art polishes from Shany Cosmetics to do all of the designs. Here they are (:

Half and Half, Red and Black!


So I invited my friend over, because let's be real.. I can only paint my nails so much! Anyways I had no idea what I was gonna do and luckily for me she just kinda rolled with it. I'm kinda bummed the picture quality is so low.. But the black color actually has some fine sparkles in it. I absolutely love it. Both the polishes are from Forever 21and they don't have cool names for theirs ): So I suppose it's sparkley black and red? Haha!

I started with a base coat and one coat of the red. Then I waited a bit and taped over it and put the black on... It looked like this...
(The way the paint stuck it kinda looks like blood.. Ewww..) Anywayss.. It turned out like this..
And I totally loved it like this, but I thought it could use a little something extra so I added a rhinestone on each finger and it was complete!


This one shows the sparkles (: Yay!

I hope you guys like it! She definitely did, I was really glad (:



Oh! And I gave her a really simple pedicure too! (sorry I didn't clean up the cuticles before I took the pictures.)

Fun French Manicure!





This mani took me awhile, because I went back and forth between putting the sparkles on all of the nails or just the ring finger and thumb. Obviously, I went with the first option, but only after wearing it on just the two fingers for a couple days.

Anyways! I started with a base coat and then put two layers of "Where's the Jack?" by OPI. Then I put on the OPI matt top coat which I'm currently obsessed with... Anyways! Then I took the turquoise sparkles by Love & Beauty from Forever 21. I put it on using tape to control the lines. And viola! Here they are, sparkley and all (:

Flowers and Fishnet!

This is definitely a different manicure but I just love it! It's somewhat sophisticated so I'll probably do something like this again for a formal event or so. Definitely not for spring break!

So to start off I painted my nails the red color by Love & Beauty and put a matte top coat by OPI!



Then I put a flower from a konad plate and then I put an extra one on just my ring finger and thumb just for fun! (:



And I liked it! But I just wanted something more.. Sooo fishnet it is!



And after it was all cleaned up this was the final product: 



Viola! How do you like it?
