The Nail Challenge Collaborative Look 4

Y'all please don't kill me for posting this late in the night, but I totally forgot it's the last day of January and the final look is due. Even though the link up doesn't close for 6 more days it's open but I hate to go into a new month with a post due balance. 

What I tried to do with these nails is make a wood grain look out of water marble. When I was growing up we had something like this on this walls in the basement my parents made into a mini apartment. I like doing this design aside from my regular pattern. Considering that I had major water and room temperature being a little chilly I think they came out decent looking.

I used OPI's Suzi loves Cowboys and A-Taupe the Space Needle.

The Nail Challenge Collaborative January Look 1

Hey everyone! I am here today to share with you all my first look to TNCC Theme for Wallpaper Nails this month! I was on the fence while voting for the theme, but this one seemed the more fun choice!

I dabbled with stamping this go around while using OPI's "A-Taupe The Space Needle" and a butterfly stamp, I see vintage wallpaper when I look at this (hippies too) lol.

The Beauty Buffs: Color Block

Hey everyone, how goes it for your week? The real question is, did you all go out and vote? I hope you made yours count. You know what today is right, yep you guessed it THE BEAUTY BUFFS day.

Today us beauties, we celebrate Color Blocking of all walks of fashion and design!! I chose something subtle and classy (in color and design). My base color is "Yo Soy" by Wet N Wild Wild Shine polish. Notice the new bottle shape, I found these new polish at my Dollar General and I counted about 10 new shades. The formula is average but I've swatched some which seem to be a little of the thick side. My color block gold polish is also by WNW and it's called "Ready to propose", its formula was average as well. 

Check out the other beauty buffs, color blocking with style.....

30 Day nail challenge day 9- Polka Dots

Good morning you all, today starts a new week in the 30 day nail challenge. For my mani today I'm using Rimmel's 60 second polish which is a taupe colored polish, it is called "Caramel Cupcake".

I've applied two coats of it as my base color then I used a pink & white acrylic paint for my dots. I added some lips to my accent nail which I thought would be cute, and it is (to me anyway). I've included a pic of my current favorite lipglass which is Nicki 2 from MAC.

Have a great week.

Pour some sugar on me

Hi ladies, research paper submitted yesterday and I'm on to the next one....in 3 weeks that is :/. So today I have a mani I did last night using another Nails Inc Special Effects lacquer, this one is called 'Sugar House Lane'. I like this because of the salt n pepper glitters mixture with the subtle taupe lacquer. I actually started to paint my nails a taupe color so it would show up more but I found that I clearly didn't need to. This is two coats and Seche Vite on top. By the way I used a glue base coat for the peel off process :)
