First attempt: Splatter

This is my very first attempt at a technique I have been in love with for sooo long!! I am actually really impressed with how it went, I thought it would be a very messy disaster! However, I love the colors, I love the brightness, and it only took me maybe 10 minutes to do! I got my inspiration from both Kayla Shevonne as well as Sandra from My World 






Nails of the week!!

This week I decided to do something simple yet girly. For the base color I used Rimmel Londons  - Silver bullet, I then applied L.A Colors - Fuel and Claire's - Snowball, finally to add a bit of sparkle I used L.A Colors - Ice Breaker

Dandelions

I stumbled across Mad Manis blog when Kayla Shevonne named Mad Manis blog of the month for June. I fell absolutely in LOVE with her dandelion nails and just had to try them out.. mine didn't come out quite as well as hers and my cuticles are absolutely horrid... but I was pretty pleased with the end result!

Summer Nails!

I haven't had a post in a couple of weeks now, so I figured I better make up for it! I've had a few days off of work and since the weather here hasn't been very nice, I've had some time to pick up a few new polishes and just mess around! 

For the first day of summer nails I decided to do some little lady bugs after coming across one in my bedroom, so it seemed fitting! 




I've also been messing around with my OPI - Black Shatter, trying to figure out which colors I like best.



I heard today that one of our local beauty stores is getting rid of LCN nails, now I was getting ready to apply to take the course so I'm pretty disappointed...however, I was told that they are bringing in two new lines of nails, China Glaze Nails and OPI Nails.. so far the only research I have done on these is typing it in on Google, with no luck of course. So has anyone out there in blog world had an experiences with these nails? If so good or bad? would you get them again? I would love to have some input! 

Skittles

While browsing through my pictures I came across a set of nails I done a few weeks ago, I completely forgot to post them! I actually entered these skittles into an online competition (just for fun of course, on Blue Kaffee)
So here are my silver and black skittles!

Nails of the week!!

Ive been super busy the last few weeks and I have been neglecting my nails and blog, so I am going to try something a bit different!! I am going to set a goal for myself, one set of nails a week!! So this weeks nails are just a simple Rainbow tipped skittles! I actually really love this style because it is so simple yet so fun! I was going to add a few polka dots, or maybe an additional color but I decided against it, what do you think?!
