My first braid manicure

Hey dolls, I'm sorry for not posting early today or last night. Last night I was busy taking pictures of all the polishes I have up for sale and adding them to my blog sale tab, so please make sure you go take a peak. And this morning I had an emergency with my cat. I woke up to him peeing blood. I was really worried as there was blood on my carpet so I called the vet got an appointment and took my Merf in. All day I was worried sick about him, got a call this afternoon and hes okay!!! He has irritable bladder syndrome (or something like that). Apparently his diet, stress and other things can cause his bladder to bleed. Since hes so young and there no cure for it im gonna have to watch him, change his diet and keep him calm. Even thou I have no idea why he'd be stressed. So tomorrow after work I get to pick my fur-baby back up and the vet will educate me some more.

Now that you guys got to hear about my stressful day, I figured I needed a very happy manicure to lift my spirits so I decided to try my first braid manicure since it would be colorful :) I must say I love how easy this manicure is!!! I do find that my right hand turned out much best which is weird since im right handed.

For this manicure I used China Glaze Aquadelic, China Glaze Dance Baby and Julep Blake. For the solid nails I used 2 coats of the China Glazes which applied beautifully, and 3 coats of Julep Blake which was a big streaky mess but I love the color. For the braid part I started with 2 coats of Dance Baby and then used 1 coat of each for the braid.


I must say I love this color combo even thou it is kinda Easter-ey. I did want to show you both my left hand and right so you can see the improvement. You can see on my right hand the spacing of the braids are much more even. Although I wish the tips were smoother didnt realize that just looking at them, nor the hair on the left lol. But besides that im in love!!!

Anyways dolls, time for bed for me to get some rest before work and before my Merf comes home <3

  3. Beautiful! I love the colour combination, even if it is a little "Easter-y" I'm glad your kitty's ok! That would scare the bejezzus out of me if that happened to my puppy.
