NOTD: So Ready For Summer!

Well it's starting to feel like summer outside, and I cannot even wait for my classes to be over for the semester!! I will be leaving junior college after the next two weeks are over, and I am so excited to transfer to CSU Northridge and move on with my life!! :D
Today I have a summery manicure for you that was inspired by this awesome weather (I'm even wearing a sun dress today, yay!) Anyway, on to my nails. enjoy :)

For this manicure, I started out with Essie Sweet Talker. Then I added some yellow polka dots with ULTA Sun-Sational. I painted the sunglasses on my ring finger using Essie Watermelon (my favorite summer shade of pink) and Revlon Black Satin.

Happy summer, and thanks for stopping by! <3

Hot Pink Polka Dots (Inspired by Pshiiit.com)

Hello everyone! Sorry it's been so long since my last post, things have been so crazy with school and work and all that jazz. But the good news, is that I am back today to post another lovely manicure for you to check out! This was a fun one that I saw on Pshiiit.com, click the link to check it out!! :D It is essentially a polka dot fade (more dots at the tips, and fewer until they stop). My nails are a tad bit shorter, so my dots go all the way back to my cuticles, and instead of using black and white, I decided to use black and neon pink... I mean really, who here is not a fan of neon pink?? Anyway, I am happy we are having summer weather, but at the same time, I myself am under the weather (just a head cold) so things aren't quite as fun as they would be if I was 100% healthy, but that's life! :P Ok, well thanks for hanging in there for that little rant. Without further ado, the pictures!! enjoy :)

The colors you see here are OPI Alpine Snow and China Glaze Purple Panic (Neon).
Honestly, I think it should be called Pink Panic (Neon) but... whatever. :P

NOTD: Happy Easter!

Happy Easter to all of my lovely readers! Sorry this post is going up so late in the day, I was busy spending time with my family today :) Even if you do not celebrate Easter, I hope you all had a wonderful Sunday. I have a festive little manicure for you guys today, enjoy :)


These are the colors I used (from left to right): OPI Alpine Snow, OPI Pink Friday, OPI Planks A Lot, Zoya Yummy, and ULTA Sun-Sational.

I started with OPI Alpine Snow for the base, then added the polka dots of pastel colors with  dotting tool. Some of them didn't come out quite ass even as I would have liked, but overall, I'm happy with how this manicure turned out. :)

NOTD: Pacific Sea Nettle

Hello again everyone!! :D I have just returned home from an awesome weekend trip to Monterey, CA. At the Monterey Bay Aquarium they have a whole exhibit dedicated to different kinds of jellyfish, so I chose to depict my favorite jellyfish (the Pacific Sea Nettles) in nail art! I really like how it turned out and I hope that you guys do too. enjoy :)

I used Revlon Royal for my beautiful blue base because it is semi-jelly and reminded of the intensely bright, but also dark blue background of their tank at the aquarium. I painted the jellyfish using Essie Braziliant. And below is a picture of these awesome and graceful jellyfish! :)

NOTD: Hit the Lights

Happy Tuesday everybody! I have a simple but funky manicure for you tonight. I really like how it turned out, and I hope you do too. enjoy :)

These are the colors I used:

So I started with Revlon Black Satin for the base, then I added dots of Destined Onesz, OPI DS Temptation, OPI Swimsuit... Nailed It!, and A-England Merlin.

NOTD: Happy Saint Patrick's Day 2012!

Hello everyone! I finally have a new post for you, yayy! :) Today we have a festive green and gold St. Patty's Day skittle manicure. I hope like them!


Here are all of the colors I used today:

From left-to-right: Sally Hansen Ivy League, love & beauty Green, OPI Glow Up Already!, OPI Did It On 'Em, A-England Saint George, Essie As Gold As It Gets, OPI Alpine Snow, Essie Going Incognito, and A-England Holy Grail.


For my pointer finger, I used three coats of OPI Did It On 'Em, and added four heart-shaped green rhinestones to look like a little shamrock. On my middle finger, I used two coats of A-England Saint George, and then a coat of Essie As Gold As It Gets. I water marbled my ring finger starting with a base coat of OPI Alpine Snow, then using that color along with Essie Going Incognito, Sally Hansen Ivy League, and A-England Holy Grail, then I used one coat of China Glaze Fairy Dust to add some sparkle. On my pinky, I used four coats of OPI Glow Up Already!.

Now on to pictures of my manicure. enjoy :)

On my thumb, I painted two coats of love & culture Green, then freehand painted the belt with black acrylic paint, and the gold buckle with A-England Holy Grail. 

Happy Saint Patrick's Day everyone! <3
