Spring-y Pink Floral Vibes (Again)

Hello loves & happy Friday! It’s almost the weekend & isn’t that just wonderful.

Today I have more floral for you. I know — I just can’t get enough! & this one turned out especially beautiful, so I’m really excited to share it. Even though we had snow the other day, it didn’t stick & the days are definitely feeling warmer. Spring is definitely on its way, & it is lovely to feel that sunshine on your face!

So bring on all the floral nails!

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Top Coat: Essie Gel Couture Top Coat 
  • Base Coat: Essie Hard to Resist Advanced
  • Hard Candy Crush On Hot Pink
  • Essie Muchi Muchi
  • Essie Play Date
  • Essie Off Tropic
  • Ellen Tracy Hot Pink (no name)
  • Ellen Tracy Dusty Pink (no name)
  • Madam Glam Acrylic Nail Art Pen in Purple
  • Madam Glam Acrylic Nail Art Pen in Green
  • Madam Glam Acrylic Nail Art Pen in Black
  • Nailstuff.ca Mermaid Tail 7mm liner brush
  • NailStuff.ca Dotting Tool Trio 

I feel like this week I’ve very much been on a purple & pink kick. They’re usually the shades I have hanging around on my nail desk, so I guess that is why I grab them most frequently. I just adore how my floral turned out though, & I’m really proud of the finished product. I also think the hot pink base is especially fun. Let’s bring on some brighter days!

So what do you think about my floral design? I’m so, so ready for real Spring days! I did break out one of my floral dresses the other day, & it felt great to wear it! I cannot wait until I can wear one everyday. That’s when it will really feel like Spring!

Happy Friday love

Purple & Pink Abstract Stripes

Hello lovelies & happy Wednesday. Can you believe that we’re almost out of March? It’s crazy this year is almost 1/4 done already, but I am definitely happy to feel Spring coming.

Today I’m pulling out one of my favourite go to designs of years past. With the exception of floral (lots, & lots of floral) I haven’t really been feeling inspired nail art wise. So I turned to nail art of years past to figure out what design to show off on my nails.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Top Coat: Essie Gel Couture Top Coat
  • Base Coat: Essie Hard to Resist Advanced
  • Color Club Bright Night
  • Color Club Pucci-Licious
  • Color Club Peppermint Twist
  • Essie Muchi Muchi *pr/gifted
  • Quo by Orly Striper in black
  • NailStuff.ca 16mm Striper Brush

It’s been a while since I did one of these abstract stripe designs, & that is just too overdue. I love the pinks & purples & blue all paired together — they’re super bright & fun!

The kind of nails you want to wear as the weather is getting warmer.

What do you think of my abstract stripe design? What kind of nail art have you been loving lately? Let me know all your thoughts down in the comments below, & leave me some inspiration for my next design!

Happy Wednesday

Pink & Purple Stained Glass Nails

Hello lovelies & happy Friday.

I won’t lie — this has been an incredibly difficult week personally. But I’m pushing through, because if one thing painting my nails (& blogging) does, is it helps my mental health. & pretty nails always make me happy.

Today’s look was a quick stained glass look I did the other night featuring Essie. I’ve been wearing a lot of the Essie in my stash lately! They just have such a beautiful variety of colours to choose from.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Top Coat: Essie Speed Setter
  • Base Coat: Essie Hard to Resist Advanced
  • Essie Flowerista
  • Essie Swoon in the Lagoon
  • Essie Expressie Choreo Queen *pr
  • Quo by Orly Striper in black
  • Small dotting tool (to fill in) NailStuff.ca Dotting Tool Trio

I think these turned out so pretty. I love these colours together. Pink & purple are always my favourite colours to combine. & I think this is such a pretty Spring-y combination — that isn’t floral. Don’t get me wrong, I love floral (& I have a ton of floral to come!)

What do you think about this geometric look? Would you wear a design like this? Let me know in tbe comments below what you think.

Pink Holo Half Moons 🌙

Hello lovelies & happy Wednesday.

Trying to post all the designs I did during my hiatus from posting, & I thought this was a fun & easy design. You know I adore half moons, & I love how this one turned out.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Base Coat: Essie Hard to Resist Advanced
  • Top Coat: Essence Colour Shield Top Coat
  • Wrenn Polish Ruby Slippers
  • Essie No More Film
  • Essie Leggy Legend
  • NailStuff.ca Dotting Tool Trio (smallest size)
  • Paper Hole Reinforcements

Half moons are such an easy look. I added my little gold dots to make it a bit more exciting, & I really like how they turned out. Mostly I’ve been leaning into the Spring shades in my collection, but every so often I reach for something darker.

What do you think about these half moons? Do you like this combination of colours?

Let me know all your thoughts down in the comments below. I always love to hear what you think!

Neon Print Floral 🌸 (Featuring Madam Glam Nail Art Pens)

Contains PR/Gifted Product

Hello lovelies & happy Monday!

I’m not sure about your part of the world, but here in mine we’ve been stuck in a frozen wasteland for a while. It’s been a rough Winter (& it’s only the beginning of March) so I’ve been wishing & dreaming for Spring a lot lately.

& what do I do when I’m wistfully wishing for Spring? Paint flowers on my nails, of course. & floral was the perfect excuse to really test out my new set of Madam Glam Nail Art Pens I was recently gifted by them.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

How absolutely adorable did these turn out? Honestly, it’s been a while since I really used nail art pens so I was a little rusty, but I think I created a very cute Spring-y look with these Madam Glam nail art pens. They definitely took me a bit of practice, but I do find it you matte-ify your base colour with a matte top coat, it makes it less slippy for drawing your design. It is like using markers on a sheet of paper versus a white board — you get an easier less slippery surface to draw on.

Over all, I’m really impressed with these nail art markers. They make drawing quite simple, & I look forward to testing them out for more designs! Highly recommend!

What do you think about this cute floral look? Have you ever tried nail art pens for creating nail art? Let me know what you think down in the comments below, & what looks you might like to see me attempt with my new collection of Madam Glam Nail Art pens!

Happy Monday!
