water marble

Day twenty of the 31 Day Challenge, water marble nails!
I'm gonna be perfectly honest with you, I haate doing water marbles. Haate. Hate, hate.
They never turn out for me, despite my efforts, and I just overall don't like the way they look on me, but I'll post my efforts.

Also, in full disclosure, ring finger and pinky were just painted like that.

I had so many ideas for this one, rainbow tips, rainbows, each nail a different color, etc. However, for now, this one won. :)

I was a little strapped for time so this is not to the best of my ability, I should of taken the time to do this properly with scotch tape or something.

pink wednesday

So, I stumbled upon this concept before I started my blog but never participated.

Here's the banner & a link so you all can check it out!

Although I had a yellow manicure for my brothers graduation I decided to do a really quick, really rough pink manicure just to use my neglected pink polishes and to participate in this awesome idea!

Base: Sally Hansen Insta-Dri "Sonic Bloom" - 2 coats (In the bottom picture, it's the middle stripe)

The top and bottom stripes are two shades of pink from Kiss Nail Art.

random manicure.

So, I had an idea in my head and I tried it on paper, it just didn't work out. So, not being able to decide on a design, I just did a bunch of random ones.
First, a base coat of Sally Hansen Insta-Dri "Mint Sprint". This is ONE coat, the formula of this polish is amazing.

Then, I added one coat of "CHARMING", I got it for Christmas and I *think* the brand is The Color Institute, but there's no brand on the bottle.

Then, a coat of OPI Black Shatter on my ring finger.

Followed by various nail art done with Kiss Nail Art Polishes in black and white.

On top of that, two coats of Wet N Wild "Party of Five Glitters"

So, this is the BEST yellow polish i've ever used. I've had it for years and wear it regularly. It is the least streaky yellow i've ever used and I took a picture of the first and third coats to show this.

It's by Sally Hansen Insta-Dri and is called "Lightening".
