Party Nails!!!!

Hey dolls!!!!
 
Thought id do a quick post and show you guys what I did today for my 25th birthday party tonight. I decided to do a pink theme since I loveeee pink. And since I love to bake of course I made my own cupcakes!!! I decided to do a dark chocolate cupcake with fresh raspberry icing!!! I even took fresh raspberries and simmered them down!! They are delicious!!!
 
 
I then decided to make some yummy Jell-o shooters!!! Since my favorite flavor is Fuzzy Navel (orange jell-o and peach schnapps) I used my pink Jell-o shooter cups to put them in.
 
 
And last but definatly not least the pink nails!!! I wanted pink but with a twist so I painted my nails with 4 coats of Billie Electric Pink, then used 2 coats of Julep Katie in different angels, and on Julep Kate I used a Black Stripe Rite to make Zebra print. I must say I really love the way these turned out!!
 
 
And that's the start of my party tonight!!! Now to go find something to wear to fit with my theme!! I hope you all have a great weekend <3

My halloween nails

Hey dolls!!!
 
Today was my first day in my new store, and I cant tell you how exciting it is!!!! I have a meeting all day tomorrow so I had to do my Halloween manicure tonight. I decided to go the simple colorful route this time.
 
I started out with 3 coats of OPI Hi, Pumpkin. I then did one coat of Julep Anne on the tips. I then took a Black Stripe Rite and drew on the spider webs. When that was all done I decided it needed something else so I made a glow-in-the-dark top coat out of pigment I got the other day. I got 6 different glow colors and for this one I choose green :)
I got the inspiration for the design from this blog. 
 
 
 
I cant believe how well the glow pigment works. this was only after about a minute of exposing my nails to the night. Its insane!!! bad thing is is that you can see anywhere it touches the skin so it took me a while to clean up.
 
Anyways I hope you all have a happy and safe Halloween <3!!!!!

Fall into Autumn: Pumpkins

Hey dolls!!!
 
Hope your week has been going good!!! Ive been going crazy since the vacation between interviews for my new store and home life, but I have made time to do my nails just havent had time to blog :(
I have 2 challenge manis to blog about, some epic nail mail as its my month in my birthday group, and some new pretties :)
 
So today I have for you the first challenge post, pumpkins!!!
 
I had so much hopes for this manicure, it just didnt turn out as good as in my head. I loved Neverlands Nails creepy scratch nail art that I thought it would be the prefect technique for the base of the pumpkin. I started out with 2 coats of OPI Candle light, then did one coat of OPI Hi Pumpkin followed with 1 coat of Essence Wake Up. I think when I did the scratch card I pulled too hard as it went right down to the bare nail :(
 
I then used a bright green and a darker green stripe right for the leaves, but I used a base of white for them to make them pop more.

Fall Into Autumn: Football

Hey dolls!!!

Hope you all have been having a great week. Mine has been pretty busy yet again lol. I just finished spending like 2 hours on my nails, filling them all down again :( I had a nail start to break across earlier this week and i used Gelish on it to secure it, well today that also started to crack. Then of course I got it stuck in a desk drawer so now I have nubbins, and it feels sooo weird. But I must say the manicure im gonna show you tomorrow is stinking adorable!!!!!!

But onto today's nails!!!! Since today's challenge post is about footballs and im farrrrr from being a sports girl, I decided to do pink footballs since its also breast cancer month.

I started out with 3 coats of OPI Peddle Faster Suzi. Once dry I used a White Stripe Rite to paint on the football lines. OC course I then decided to add my SF topcoat too it since I realized I haven't used it in a while.


I loved how my nails have gotten more rounder as I think it compliments the footballs. I think I did a pretty good job with this challenge.

But make sure to stop by tomorrow and see my first time combining stamping and dots :D.

Fall Into Autumn: Apples

Hello lovelies!!!
 
Sorry for being so MIA this week. It has been one crazy week at work. I ended up wearing my back to school nails till last night, I changed them to Zoya Carly and of course after a 10 hr day at work I forgot to take a picture of them :( And today they were too chipped.
 
But I do have a Fall Into Autumn challenge for you today. Tomorrow im going to a local flea market for some fresh fruits and veggies and then going to our local fall fair at night for the demolition derby so this manicure is quiet suitable id say. The challenge is Apples.
 
For this manicure I started out with 2 coats of Essence Color & Go Modern Romance. Once dry I used 2 coats of Orly Fresh to draw on the apples. I then topped those of with Nina Ultra Pro Electric Slide *Its a brand new core color, they just redid there whole line, new bottles and brush, same great formula thou*. Once all that was dry I drew on the stems, leafs, and shine with a Green Stripe Rite, Art Club Black, and Finger Paints Hip Hip Hue-ray.
 
 
I absolutely love the way this turned out. I do have to give inspiration to all the ladies in this challenge, as these adorable apple nails made me try these.
