Blue Jewel Drag Marble Nails 💎

Hello lovelies & happy Friday. & Happy September 1st! It maybe not be Fall to most people — or, okay, the calendar, but September 1st definitely feels like the beginning of Fall to me. So you can probably look forward to seeing more & more Autumn-eque designs moving forward.

Today’s look was what happens when it’s late at night & I’m stick on nail ideas. I wanted to paint my nails, but I was uncertain with what I should do. Naturally, I decided on a drag marble. I think they turned out really pretty, so I’m excited to share them with you!

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Base Coat: Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Colour Grip Primer Base Coat 
  • Top Coat: Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Glossy Top Coat
  • Essie License to Thrill
  • Essie Get Your Grove On
  • Essie Merino Cool
  • Smallest dotting tool (NailStuff.ca Dotting Tool Trio)

How beautiful did this turn out? Honestly, sometimes I do drag marbles & I hate the result –they get a bit muddled — but I think the colours on this one really compliment each other, & it turned out really looking like some kind of stone/marble.

What do you think of this drag marble design? Do you like this colour combination as much as I do? How does the beginning of a new month have you feeling? Let me know all your thoughts in the comments below!

Sally Hansen x Sesame Street Half Moons

•contains pr/gifted product•

Hello lovelies & happy Friday! The last Friday of August, if you can actually believe it. I can’t believe how quickly this Summer is speeding by, but by the cool mornings we’ve been having around here, I know Autumn is well on its way. Also, I may or may not have enjoyed my first pumpkin spice latte of the year this morning.

So, seeing as I’m feeling Fall vibes, I decided to try & create a Fall-esque design using a few more of the Sally Hansen x Sesame Street InstaDri shades I recently received. I thought these colours would absolutely scream Fall together… but truthfully, I’m getting more Michelangelo from the Ninja Turtle vibes instead.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Base Coat: Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Colour Grip Primer Base Coat 
  • Top Coat: Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Glossy Top Coat
  • Sally Hansen x Sesame Street InstaDri SCRAM!
  • Sally Hansen x Sesame Street InstaDri Up To Snuff
  • Paper Hole Reinforcements

I do love both these colours separately, so I figured they would pair well together. &, they do, but didn’t quite hit the Fall vibes I was going for. But, Mikey is my favourite Ninja Turtle so I can’t be too upset about this accidental Ninja Turtle look. & a half moon design is always a good (& easy!) look to wear.

What do you think of this Fall inspired/Ninja Turtle half moon design? Which them do you think it hits most accurately? Let me know all your thoughts down in the comments below!
