Chevron Nails

This is my first attempt trying chevron nails with tape.
The stripes are a bit uneven, but I like it overall :)



I used Ruby Wing Green Peace & Crowd Surf
I used tape and pinking scissors to created the chevron stripes.

Hey everyone. This is Funky Fingers- Jawbreaker. I used 2 coats over white. 
The formula is awesome, I didn't have any problems with it :)

Sally Hansen Pacific Blue & Sinful Colors Endless Blue Comparison

Hi everyone! Today I have 2 awesome blue polishes to compare. 

Sally Hansen Pacific Blue & Sinful Colors Endless Blue

Middle and pinky finger- Pacific Blue
Pointer and ringer finger- Endless Blue

I used 2 coats of each color. If you apply them very carefully, you can get away with one coat, but I like to apply two coats to be safe :) They both dry quickly and shiny. As you can see Endless Blue is darker and more of a true blue, as Pacific Blue is more of a cornflower blue




Thanks for reading :D

Munna Manicure

I'm a total Pokemon nerd, I play the card game and the DS games. I'm planning to do more Pokemon inspired nails so stay tuned   ^_^

 OPI- Panda-monium Pink (3 coats, 4 on some nails to cover up bald spots)




I used acrylic paint for the flowers and Munna's face :)

Happy Revolution- Flip Flip Flipadelphia

I finally own an indie polish!

Happy Hands and Polish Revolution teamed up to create polishes inspired by It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. I freakin' love that show, it's hilarious :)


Bottle shot :)

From the episode (found on google)

I used China Glaze- Recycle as my base. I used 3 coats here 

Then one coat of Flipadelphia and look how beautiful it is :)

With flash

You can wear this polish without a base but I haven't tried it yet :P

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)
