Instagram Recap #2

Hello everyone :)

This is 2 coats of Sinful Shine- Blue Suede Shoes. I didn't use a base or top coat here. The application was perfect and it dries pretty quickly and shiny 

I wanted to draw some nail art, the color reminded me of Munchlax

I painted his teeth too close together lol

I attempted chevron and I failed so I ended up adding dots :/

OPI- In my back Pocket (2 coats)

OPI- Alpine Snow (3 coats)

L.A. Girl- Turntable (2 coats)

Liz's Birthday and Fire Nails

Hello everyone. I did these fire nails for the June photo a day on instagram. I used some paint brushes to randomly draw on my nails, it's not the best manicure I've done but I still like it :)

Colors used:

OPI- In My Back Pocket

China Glaze- Phat Santa

China Glaze- Solar Power

Liz's birthday was on June 3rd but we cut the cake on the 2nd, since the bakery where we bought the cake doesn't open on Sundays, we picked it up on Saturday.

Sephora by OPI- Ocean Love Potion & Flowers

Hello everyone. Last time I wore this color was in 2009, when my husband got it for me as a Christmas gift. Ocean Love Potion is a teal creme polish, it applied perfectly, and it only needed two coats.

After a few hours I decided to paint some flowers on my nails, using a clipboard I got at Target as my inspiration :D

Items used:

Ocean Love Potion

Craftsmart Paint in White & Holiday Red

China Glaze Matte Magic

Thanks for reading, until next time :)

Red: Snowman

Today I have another Christmas manicure. I wanted to use one of the characters from IHaveACupcake's Santa and Friends tutorial, so I picked the snowman because Liz loves them. :) On my right hand I added two snowflake stickers, since I can't draw with my left hand.

Colors used:

Sally Hansen- Rapid Red & Whirlwind White

I used acrylic paint for the snowman

Nail Art by My Husband

Hello everyone! My internet connection was down so I couldn't publish this post sooner. On Saturday I was painting my nails and right when I was about to draw on some dots, two of my nails smudged. I got angry and my husband volunteered to give me a manicure. He picked out a white nail polish, red and green acrylic paint and my nail art tools. He blindfolded me so I couldn't see what designs he was drawing. The base is three coats of OPI- Alpine Snow

^ Candy Cane, Wreath, Mistletoe, Candy Cane :)

^ Before I cleaned up O_O lol

^ This is the color I was wearing before I smudged my nail polish

^ China Glaze- Ten Man (4 coats)

I drew some dots on Liz's nail because she kept saying "Mommy nail polish, Mommy nail polish" and she put her little hands on my desk so I could paint them. I used pink and purple acrylic paint with a dotting tool. Afterwards she wanted me to take a picture of her nails. When I was younger I always wanted a sister so I could paint her nails and play with her hair. Instead I got an annoying, ugly brother (lol) whose birthday was today so we got to eat oreo cake. :D

Christmas Nail Art

It's finally December! I love this time of year, all the holidays and cold weather! Today I used some acrylic paints from Michael's to draw some Christmas designs on my nails, this was my first time using them along with my nail art brushes. I bought my nail art brushes from ebay seller: susuway. I mixed white and brown to make light brown but I didn't mix them well enough, so my gingerbread man looks swirled lol. Also I have new lighting for my pictures, my husband bought me a cool lamp for my nail pictures :)

^ Under lamp

^ Under lamp

^ Fugly snowflake, a snowman that looks dead, and a frightened gingerbread man.

Nail art FAIL o_O

I used Sinful Colors- Paradise (2 coats)
