Happy Halloween!

It's Halloween! Can you guys even believe it?

I can't believe tomorrow is November like I'm in some serious denial LOL! 

You may have seen this final look already on my Instagram because I posted a sneak peek of it last week when I headed out to Salem. I got so many compliments on this look and it was so easy to create! Wanna take a look?

I started with a base of Serum No5 Dayglow, my FAVORITE glow in the dark polish! When it dried I stamped over it using a black stamping polish from the Born Pretty Store and Bundle Monster plate BM-H08. I sealed it all in with some Seche Vite and that was it!



I love how easy this look was to create, it's perfect for that last minute halloween design!

What do you guys think? What are you doing for Halloween?

Thanks loves :)

Skulls and Glitter

Hey guys!

I can't believe how close Halloween is! I feel like I had so many more spooky designs I wanted to create, but there's just not enough time in the day T.T But latest I got to do this one, a sparkly and spooky skull design! Want to check it out?

I started with a base of Color Club Beyond on my pointer and middle nails and a base of China Glaze Just Be Claws on my ring and pinky nails. When my pointer and middle nails were dry I applied some Skull Stencils from Stick It! Nail Vinyls and sponged over them with Mundo De Unas White. I peeled off the vinyl and added two red rhinestones on each for some creepy eyes. Then I sponged Milani Red Sparkle on my ring and pinky nails and I sealed them all in with some Seche Vite to finish it off! 



I absolutely LOVE how these came out! So sparkly and just perfect for Halloween. BUT, if you want to recreate the glitter part of this look I would highly suggest a peel off base coat... you guys DON'T want to know how long these took me to remove.... -_- LOL! 

Totally worth it though right?

Thanks loves :)

Halloween Mini Dotticure

Hi guys!

More Halloween nails woohoo! I love this look so much because it's not scary, it's not creepy, it's not gory, it's just... cute ;) Sometimes simple nail designs are my absolute favorite designs to do, and this one is classy and still quite festive. Wanna check it out?

I started off by taking a toothpick, dipping it into some Nasty Nails Boink! and adding dots to the bottom portion of my nail focusing heavily on the very bottom edge. When those dots were dry I went back in and added some more dots with Wet N Wild Black Creme. I filled in any bald spots with some more Nasty Nails Boink! and added a layer of TLLB Glow-Stly for some good holo measure ;) Finally I sealed it all in with a layer of Seche Vite and that's it!



I love how simple this look is, and it honestly took me about 15 minutes to create. It's perfect for a last minute halloween manicure, or you can even change it up and use different colors. The possibilities are endless ;) 

What do you guys think?

Thanks loves :)

Bloody Spiders

I HATE THESE NAILS!

Not that I don't think they're cool because they are... but SPIDERS T.T Grossssssss!

I suppose spiders go hand in hand with Halloween but man, do I hate them! Sade to say these nails didn't last more then the amount of time it took me to photograph them LOL! 

Anyways.... let's get creating ;) 

I started with a base of Essie Blanc. When it was dry I applied some liquid latex around my nails and created the blood splatter with a straw and OPI Big Apple Red. I removed the liquid latex and added some spider decals from Stick It! Nail Vinyls and sealed everything in with some Seche Vite. And that was it! Check them out!




Spooooooooky! As much as I hate spiders I think these are absolutely perfect for Halloween! What will you be wearing on your nails this year?

Thanks loves :)

Spooky Spider Webs

It's that time of year again! 

Time for pumpkins, ghosts and ghouls, and all that spooky stuff. Me? I prefer the cute Halloween stuff ;) Although haunted houses is a guilty pleasure of mine.... unless it involves chainsaws, then EFFFFFF that! 

Anyways I bought a few polishes from a new to me brand, Nasty Nails, and one of the colors I bought was Boink! A GORGEOUS pumpkin orange! I couldn't wait to give it a try so I figured some Halloween nails were in order. Want to check it out?

I started with a base of Nasty Nails Boink! and then applied a layer of TLLB Glow-Stly over top. When it was dry I stamped over each nail with Bundle Monster plate BM-H07 and a black stamping polish from the Born Pretty Store. I sealed it all in with some Seche Vite and that was it!




That orange though.... PERFECTION! I'm not much of an orange wearer but I can see myself wearing this one a lot!

What do you guys think?

Quilted Bling

Hey guys!

So when I was trying out the Expressionism plate and the Say I Do plate from the Winstonia Store, I got really excited about this quilted image on the Say I Do plate. I've tried this look free hand before and failed miserably... which is why you guys haven't seen it LOL! SO I was super pumped about being able to stamp it instead! Ready to check it out?

I started with a base of Lime Crime Milky Ways. I applied a layer of Seche Vite over top to speed up the drying process and when my nails were dry I stamped over each on using the quilted image form the Winstonia Store Say I Do plate and a black stamping polish from the Born Pretty Store. I applied Seche Vite one more time and while it was still wet I carefully placed one rhinestone over a larger dot on each nail. Finally I applied a layer of NYC Matte Me Crazy to bring it all together.



I am LOVING this look! SO classy and simple with just the right amount of sparkle to catch your eye. I can't wait to try this one out in different color combinations! 

What do you guys think?

Thanks loves :)

Totally Wavy Dude

 Hi guys!

If you haven't noticed yet, I've been using a lot of vinyls from Stick It! Nail Vinyls lately. That's because I am watching the entire collection so there are a lot more to come... they are SO fun though so I hope you don't mind! I think there will be a lot of designs you will love! 

So on to the next one ;)

I started this look off with a base of Color Club Beyond. When it was dry I applied some Wave Stencils from Stick It! Nail Vinyls and sponged over them using Mundo De Unas White. I removed the vinyls and added small hearts near my cuticle using turquoise acrylic paint. I sealed it all in with a layer of Seche Vite and that's it!



I always love the way black and white nail designs stand out, so clean! And that little pop of turquoise really make it awesome!

What do you guys think?

Thanks loves :)

Harvest Spikes

Hi guys!

I've been crazy about fall-esque nail designs and I think this one is my favorite to date! Something about golds, browns, and nudes together just make me ant to get my sweater and boots out! 

I started with a base of Enchanted Polish Flashing Lights and when it was dry I applied some Spike Vinyls from Stick It! Nail Vinyls and sponged over them with Mundo De Unas Brown and Lime Crime Milky Ways. I removed the vinyls and sealed it all in with a layer of Seche Vite to finish it off.




Dat sun pic doe <3 These photos don't do this Enchanted justice at all, it's absolutely stunning in real life!

What do you guys think?

Spiked

Hi guys,

I was feeling like I wanted to create something a little edgy lately so I grabbed my Spike Vinyls from Stick It! Nail Vinyls and went to work!

I started with a base of Victorias Secret Mischief. When it was dry I applied some Spike Vinyls in a half moon pattern on my nails and sponged over it with Mundo De Unas Light Blue and Lilac. I removed the vinyls and sealed everything in with some Seche Vite to finish it off.




This look was super fun to create and I love how crisp the vinyls removed! 

What do you guys think?

Sorry for the short post ;) Thanks loves!

Look! A Wild Watermarble!

Okay raise your hand... who remembers the last time I did a watermarble... yeah, me either LOL! 

Let's change that. 

I got my watermarble tool in the mail the other day from Whats Up Nails and I couldn't wait to use it! 

I started off with a base of Sally Hansen Insta Dry Tag, Ur It!. When it was dry I created my watermarble using China Glaze Violet Vibes, DJ Blue My Mind, Treble Maker, and Pipe Dream Polish Clearwater. I finished it off with a layer of Seche Vite to seal everything in.



I. Can't. Even. Seriously guys I am SO in love with these! I forgot how much I loved actually watermarbleling and you can bet your butts I'll be doing it more often so keep your eyes open ;) 

What do you think?

Thanks loves :)
