RED Christmas inspired French Manicure!!

I didn't want to a whole bunch on nail art for this manicure. However, I didn't want something normal. So I ended up deciding on a glamed up french tip!!!!

Christmas Trees!! Birthday Manicure!!!

For my birthday/Christmas manicure I decided I wanted something neat, whimsical and cute.
I did a lot of thinking, and looking for designs and I found this one!!!
This is definitely on my favorites manicure list!

How I did it:
For the tree nails I started with a white base coat. Then using acrylic paint I placed red, lime green and dark green dots in a tree shape. Once the dots dried, I placed white dots in the middle of some of the color dots. This step is up to you I just thought it made the design a little cooler. Lastly I added a small tree truck and clear coat.
For the Snow Flake Nails, I started with a red base coat. Then using a dotting tool I made three large circles. When the circles dried completely I used my fine tip paint brush to paint random snowflakes over the circles. When all of the polish was completely dried I painted a think clear coat to insure none of the acrylic paint flaked off. I absolutely loved this manicure, it was cute, fun and exactly what I wanted for my birthday mani

Barn Dance

Last weekend, Isaac and I went to a barn dance, hosted by my home school group. The dance wasn't much to talk about (it was quite boring.) But, I did want to show you all a picture of my clothes! My nails were done in the second layering technique. I didn't have time to change them :( But I did love my outfit!!

Halloween mani

 

For Halloween I wanted something super fun! Last year I did candy corns, but this year I wanted something a little different. I saw last Halloween SimpleLittlePleasers did a mummy inspired look, so I decided to give that a whirl. However, I did not want to do just mummies so I decided to add some candy corns in my manicure also! And, this was the product!!!!

Colors I Used:
Mummy Nails: one coat of "Sunset Sail" from China Glaze under "Copper Glazed Platuim" from Revlon "French White Tip" from NYC "Liquid Leather" from Sally Hansen
Candy Corns: "Big Spender" from Pro, "French White Tip" from NYC, "Yellow" and "Bright Orange" from L.A Colors Striper

What more fun then candy corns and googly eyes!!!

XOXO

Layering #2

Okay, So I had to try the layering technique again! But this time I used black and vibrant colors. I did this design the exact same way as the one using fall colors. I'm not sure if I like this color combination better than the design with fall colors. What do you think? I think they are both different in their own way.
I did learn one thing from trying this technique another time. When picking the order to paint your polishes, make sure the colors do not look similar. I paired them going yellow, blue, orange, pink, green, purple and black. If I had painted yellow and orange or pink and purple close together the colors would have not popped as much. Of course you can pair them however, you want but this is how I think it looks best.

Colors I Used:
All Nails in order: "Fierce N' Tangy" from Maybelline, "Blue Collar" from ORLY, "Sun Worshiper" from China Glaze, "Flirt Alert" from Pure Ice, "Neon Green" from Kleancolor, "Dream" from Sinful Colors and "Black Leather" from Sally Hansen



This is the picture that gave me inspiration for the layering technique.
