Watercolor Nails

These are absolutely some of my favorite nails. They are so incredibly easy to do and they look really cool (: Just paint your nails whatever base color you want, mine is "White On" by Sally Hansen Hard as Nails, and then put dots of colors in the corner (one color at a time). Take a tooth pick and pull it through the dot a few times. That's all! Add a top coat and Viola!

The colors used for my dots are: 

"Fushia Power" by Sally Hansen Hard as Nails

"Blue for you" by Sally Hansen Hard as Nails

and some purpley color by Forever 21's Love and Beauty

Scentsational Mango!

Okay so for my birthday, my friend got me OPI's new "Scentsational Minis!" They're all bright colors with awesome scents (: My favorite thing is that they aren't the typical orange, lemon, apple, etc... There's citris, mango, blueberry, tutti fruti, watermelon and cherry! This post is going to show you mango! These are primarily top coats since they're so sheer, but that's perfect since you want the scented polish on top anyways. 

Here's a picture of the orange I used under it, Marmalade by Revlon. I used two coats of "Marmalade" and one coat of the Mango.

More pictures of the finished product!:

Bold Feathers

I wanted to do something different last night and this is it! I really like them, they're very edgy (: For the accent nails, I was going to do polka dots along the lines.. but I thought sparkles would look cool too (: The color underneath is that blue color from Forever 21 that I couldn't find the specific name for, and the lines and sparkles are from my Shany nail art polishes (:

Here are a bunch more pictures.. The blue doesn't completely contrast the blue but the subtlety is nice (: 

Birthday Nails!

Well I did these nails for my birthday, I think they're so fun! I love them (:

So I've been seeing these nails around pinterest lately.. and I saw a design that particularly caught my eye on katrinasnailblog.blogspot.com. So this is my take on them!

The red/orange color: "Mandy" by Julep
The sparkles: Silver sparkles by Love & Beauty
Lavender: "Lacey Lilac" by Sally Hansen Hard as Nails
White: "White On" by Sally Hansen Hard as Nails

I don't remember what all the dots are sorry (:

Scented Nail Polish!

 AH! My nails smell like strawberries.. How cool is that?! The flowers are super simple, made with a dotting tool. This is Revlon "Sublime Strawberries." Not only is it a super cute color and it smells like strawberries, but it applies so incredibly well! Some of the best nail polish I've ever had (: This is just one coat! Here's one more pic!

Tape Art!

These are super easy and fun. Just paint normal scotch tape and cut it into whatever shape you want. Viola! The base coat is Sally Hansen Hard as Nails "Lacey Lilac." I've been wanting a color like this and now I finally have it. I love it. I hope you like it (: I'm definitely going to do more "tape art." It's very fun (:

Up nails!

AH! These are so fun. I love them (: I used the cloud stamp from Konad and the Sally Hansen color "Blue me Away." They were so easy to make. My cuticles look so horrible though I'm so sorry! I just hadn't put on lotion yet.

Anyways, my boyfriend loves Pixar stuff, so I'm fairly certain he loves me even more now because of these. Even though I have to change them to match my graduation dress, he requested that I change them back right afterwards! Hope you 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 (:

Peacock Nails!

Ah! These are my peacock nails! I absolutely love these, they're so cute! I used my Shany Nail Art polishes for the green stripes, Sally Hansen Quick Color Gold Chrome for the outer circle, Sally Hansen "Blue Me Away" for the middle circle, and another Shany Nail Art Polish for the inner dot. Oh! And the color for all the other nails is Sally Hansen Quick Color Blue Chrome. Super cute, I really like them. I'll probably do them again this summer (: Or at least on someone else!

Spring flowers (:

My friend saw a picture of nails like this and asked me to do them so here they are! This picture definitely doesn't do the nails justice.. they look so bland and stuff, but really they're quite detailed! I've definitely got to start using a better camera than my iPhone ):

There are dark gold dots on where the pollen should be, and yellow and orange used for the petals, as well! Either way they look cute! The base is red by Love & Beauty, and I used my Shany Nail Art Polishes for the petals. And Sally Hansen's Quick Colors Gold Chrome for the middle part.

Hope you guys like them! (:

"Virtuous Violet" with OPI and Sparkles

So I went over to my friend's house yesterday and I told her about my blog! She asked me to do her nails since she had prom today! Her dress is silver and her shoes are purple, so I really liked including both of those! She received the sparkley polish as a gift from someone, and there is absolutely no label on it! So sorry, I can't tell you guys what it is ):

The purple is Nicole by OPI, and it's called "Virtuous Violet." I actually really hated it.. It was really chunky and it didn't come on evenly. As you guys can see there are parts that look really thin and others that look thick! But you could only tell in the harsh light, so she was happy with it.

Okay! I've rambled on enough now (: Hope you guys enjoy!

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 (:

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?

Fishnet Rainbow!

Okay, I cannot even begin to explain how many compliments I get on this manicure and it was so simple too! I started by pulling out all of my colors and finding complimentary rainbow colors. then I painted them on and let them dry sufficiently. After they were okay to touch and press gently I used the fishnet Konad nail stamp with black nail polish.

If anyone wants an extensive tutorial on how to use the nail stamp just leave me a comment, I'd be happy to provide one for you!
