Cult Nails Devious Nature topped with 2 coats of Sally Hansen Byte. The glass fleck purple/blue shimmer is insane! I love the bright kick it gives. A pink punch in the face. And yes, it's just like this in real life. Electric! I love ...

Mustache Nail Art
Posted on 04:00 by Unknown
I don't know where the sudden surge of interest in mustaches has come from.... but I'm on the bandwagon. Of course my dad has ALWAYS had a mustache. Probably since he was first able to grow a mustache. So I consider myself a fan because he's such a dedicated wearer ;) This is 2 coats of China Glaze Sea Spray & the black details were done using black acrylic paint and a skinny striper brush.The design was loosely inspired by my new stackable...

Chevron Nail Art
Posted on 04:00 by Unknown
These were once again something I saw on Pinterest and had to recreate. It was this design, but I wanted it to be monochromatic... so I left out the pink and went with sparkly white. In the original post, she mentioned that she had them done with gel at a nail salon. Mine just use regular polish.I used Orly Au Champagne, Kiss Nail Art Striper in black, the glittery nail is Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Celeb City topped with OPI Crown Me Already!After...

Patchwork Hearts
Posted on 04:00 by Unknown
Good morning ladies! Here I wanted to recreate a cute manicure done by Deniz @ Emerald Sparkled here. I used the exact same polish (China Glaze Secondhand Silk) and acrylic paints in black and white for the heart details. Her design was originally inspired by this look of Rina @ Simply Rins. So credit goes back all around!Adorable, don't you thin...

Then stamped using China Glaze Millennium and the image from BM 316.I love the fine silver glitter in Velvet Rope. It also has such a rich & gorgeous purple sha...

Orly - Walk Down the Aisle
Posted on 04:00 by Unknown
Another polish I picked up from Orly on Hautelook.Shame on me for not researching swatch pictures online before ordering... I thought this would be a really pretty, shimmery, sky blue. And it's not! I opened the box and said "this one is green?!"On my thumb I tried to layer as many coats as I could to see it's opacity capabilities....This is 4 coats and you can see that the icy shimmer just stacks up but never becomes fully opaque. For a full swatch...

A Teal Bouquet
Posted on 04:00 by Unknown
This is the most infuriating polish to photograph! I just cannot get color accurate pictures for you guys. I'm sorry. My previous use of it here is slightly better, but still not entirely accurate. :(This is 2 coats with an accent nail of Milani Jewel FX Teal....

Orly - Pretty Please
Posted on 04:00 by Unknown
Another polish I picked up from Orly on Hautelook.This is 3 coats of Pretty Please. It can still be a bit sheer. The formula was pretty thin and I made sure to wait a bit for each layer to dry before applying another. You can still see some visible nail line, but check out that blue shimmer! Gorgeo...

Thanks again Pinterest.
Posted on 04:00 by Unknown
I loved this design on Pinterest and I adapted it to accent nails. The polishes I used are Sinful Colors Rainstorm & Snow Me White. Red acrylic paint for the hearts and striping tape to make the lines so straight.I mixed it up a bit for the other hand.This design was inspired by this look on Pinterest. I cannot for the life of me figure out the specific post it came from. :( That can be a bad thing about Pinterest. Here it is:Source: crowleyparty.blogspot.com...

Orly - Fresh
Posted on 04:00 by Unknown
This is a beauty I picked up when Orly was on Hautelook a while back.3 coats of Orly Fresh. My pictures aren't the best. And for that, I apologize. This polish is truly a grass green but my camera made it look much more neon than it really is.The formula was great, applied easily. No problems here!...

Sally Hansen Diamond Strength - Tender Teal
Posted on 04:00 by Unknown
This is 3 thin coats of Tender Teal, one of the new Diamond Strength collection. I don't see any Teal..... It's more bright, vibrant blue. Then it has a slight duochrome shift to purple. But I don't see any teal at all....

Sally Hansen Lustre Shine - Lava
Posted on 04:00 by Unknown
Finally some pictures of the other Lustre Shine I bought recently. Pictured is 3 thin coats. It is quite sheer, my nails are short now, but if they were much longer I would probably choose to layer it over another polish. There is visible nail line.The color shifts from reddish pink to bright orange. Lots of glassflecks :) Here is an underwater shot to try and better show the color shift. Too bad it's blurry and the water has bubbles! Lol. So sorry!...
