Good morning Lovelies! Happy Monday! I’m lucky enough that it’s a semi-holiday Monday here in ole Halifax and I’m lucky enough to have the day off!
It’s also a seriously awesome amazing Monday because I am featured by The Little Canvas as August’s Nail Artist of the Month! I’m so excited that Alaina asked me to join such amazing company. I would love for you all to click the above link, and check out my special mani I created just for this honour!
💗 have a great Monday everyone!
You might remember last Summer, I did some Wonder Woman inspired nails. Let’s. just call this take two. 🌟
The polishes I used for this mani were:
I created my chevron moons freehand. I really need to create a tutorial to show you guys how I do it! It’s so simple and so much easier than taping everything off! (For me at least). Would you guys want a tutorial? Just let me know in the comments below! 💙❤️
So what do you think of this mani? I’ve coveted My Chihuahua Bites! for so long and I’m so happy it’s finally mine! Thank you Winners and your fantastic polish section. And also this blue…. This blue. 😍😍😍 such a pretty blue! Now all I need is a star tiara and some bullet proof bracelets and I’ll be all set!
Happy Friday Lovelies! 😘
As you’ve probably figured out, I love a good floral mani. REALLY love. I saw a mani by @perfectly_nailed on Instagram that featured roses on script and knew I wanted to recreate it! I picked up QUO by ORLY water transfers all the way back in October so I couldn’t think of a better time to try them out!
The polishes I used for this mani were:
What do you think of my roses? I really adore how these turned out. I’ve been really feeling romantic manicures lately… Maybe it’s because it’s wedding season!
Long time no see! This Summer has been a stressful one which means blogging has been forced to the back burner. I promise to keep trying to post though–and hopefully soon my non-nail life calms down some! 💗
Today I have some dry brush accent nails to share with you featuring a few of the polishes from the China Glaze Desert Escape collection. I found the minis of this collection at my local Sally’s and didn’t hesitate picking it up! And after wearing some of these gorgeous colours I’m so glad I did!
I create these dry brush accent nails for a friend’s birthday celebrations that were Music Festivel themed (think Coachella). I though the Desert Escape collection would match the theme perfectly.
The polishes I used for this manicure were:
I seriously love how these accent nails turned out. I tried a similar mani a could months ago and my line work was just a mess! In fact, I loved this mani so much I couldn’t bare to take them off even after Don’t Desert Me started to chip! So I took it off and replaced it with Rain Dance the Night Away because it’s a seriously stunning blue!
And I full mani shot because I think it’s my new favourite.
Have you picked up any of the Desert Escape polishes? Which one is your favourite of the collection?
You’ll remember the other day I included a swatch of ORLY Mirrorball in my last post and I promised something good to come. How about a double holo half moon manicure! As I said, I’m all about that holo life right now. Just makes the sunny Summer-like days even better. I decided to up to sparkle on my nails overtop ORLY Mirrorball. After wearing Mirrorball on its own for about a day, I applied paper reinforcements to the bottom of each nail, pressed them down real good, and then applied two coats of Nubar Prize which is such a pretty holographic reddish pink! Remove the hole reinforcements quickly, apply your top coat of choice and BAM! Pretty and super sparkly half moons.
Just check out this blurry sun shot to really get a sense of the sparkle. It’s almost blinding and I love everything about it! 😍
