Cute Flowers..

Lately I've been doing very out there designs on my nails, I wanted to tone them down, so what better way than to go grey. I didn't want to have just grey, I didn't want it to be that boring so I added some pretty white flowers with brown rhinestones, and let me tell you I got so many compliments on this simple but beautiful nail design. It was so easy to do just put on two coats of "Nail Envy" by O.P.I, then I added two coats of "Chinchilly" by Essie and added white flowers and dotswith an old liquid eyeliner that had a felt tip to have the pedal go thin at the end (if that makes sense?) and I used "Blanc" also by Essie. Then added the rhinestones while the flowers were still kind of wet so they would stick on, let it dry for 10 minutes so the flowers don't smear, added Seche Vite top coat. That's it hope you guys like and try out <3

My Take On "Angry Birds" Nail Design =]

This is my take on the "Angry Birds" nail design I found on youtube, if your gonna do this design you have to have a lot of experience with designing your nails because even for me I thought it was pretty hard. But anyways this is the link where I got it if you want to try,     http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UraS2pVGZoI I    I used China Glaze and Essie products. Enjoy =]

Purple Glitter Nails =]

So I only had about half an hour to do my nails so I decided to go simple. I used O.P.I Nail Envy, this product retails for $16.95 but amazingly enough I got it for only $3.00, a store at my local mall was having a sale on Essie and O.P.I, all the O.P.I was pretty much gone but the one I got, so I had to get it. I used Nail Envy for my base coat, let it dry, then I put on "Spontaneous" by China Glaze also let that dry, then I used "One Less Lonely Glitter" by Nicole by O.P.I (Justin Beiber collection). Top coat I used my favorite, Seche Vite. Hope you enjoy and try out. <3

...collection??

So like in my last post I said that I have discovered a love for nails. I started out just doing my own nails, then I starting getting on youtube and starting seeing all of the different designs that I wanted. So I just started adding more colors on to my collection, of course we all love O.P.I. but they do get expensive, so I collect more China Glaze I really love the colors and they have a wide variety, I also love essie nail polishes but right now I actually only have one which is "ballet slippers" the reason why I like it a lot is because it's a really light color so I had to obviously apply a lot of coats to get the color and I thought that it was going to peel off really easily but I still gave it a try. I had it on for about 5 days because that's the longest time I can go with the same nail design, but anyways IT NEVER CHIPPED and just so you know I didn't use the greatest top coat ever so I really liked it for that reason because I seriously had to apply like 5 coats to get the color, so I definitely will be purchasing more. But back to my "collection" I have one O.P.I. color and two Nicole by O.P.I. and a lot of China Glaze and some Orly but I don't really use them, except for the Orly top coat I really like it but it got really gooey and thick so it would kind of smear the colors on my nails so I had to be really careful with it, I use the Beauty Secrets Cuticle Oil and I also really like that product, and I have recently got the Seche Vite top coat and I really love it, it dries really fast like in a minute, but the only thing is that it has a really strong smell to it, not so much that you have to like take a break or anything but its definitely stronger than any other nail polish/ top coats that I have ever used. I get mostly all of my nail supplies and nail polishes at Sally's Beauty Supply except for the Essie, O.P.I. and Nicole by O.P.I.. On youtube a lot of the gurus that I watch always mention a store named Ulta and I was like what the heck is it like a drug store or like a beauty supply store? So I went on their website and it turned out that it was a beauty supply store so I really wanted to check it out, but the thing is the closest one to my house is like 45 minutes away so I haven't checked it out but I want to really bad, so next time I go past the city it's in im for sure going to stop and take a look at the store and who knows maybe it will be my new favorite store =] But anyways this blog was more on my nail polish collection and the supplies that I have. What do you have in your collection that you think I should have leave me a comment and let me know. Thanks for reading <3
