Tribal Sparkle

Oh HI guys!

I did it again didn't I? I went totally MIA on you T.T
My office is currently in pieces, we decided to paint the room and we both realized that we HATE painting walls LOL! So it's taking..... a while. But I had done this sparkly tribal print mani a little while ago and forgot all about it! I don't know how, I LOVE this look! 

I started by creating a gradient using Cupcake Polish Imagine and Believe. When my nails were dry I applied some Tribal Water Decals by the Born Pretty Store. I sealed it all in with some Seche Vite and that was it!


I LOVE this look so much! SO fun and SO sparkly! 

What do you guys think?

Thanks loves :)

Holographic neon tribal

Hi guys! 

I can't handle this much awesomness! Holo, neon, glitter, tribal, pink.... WHAT DO I DO?! 

This is the manicure of all manicures that I've created, I've never had so many things that I love in one single design. I DIE! 

Whoops, I went all crazy nail polish lady on you guys for a minute there ;) 

But for real doe, this design is killer!

I started off with a base of Orly Mirrorball (shield your eyes from the beauty T.T) When Mirrorball was dry I applied some tribal nail vinyls from Snail Vinyls and painted over them with China Glaze Pool Party. I peeled off the vinyls and sealed everything in with Seche Vite to finish it off!





These nails are so incredibly simple but crowd stopping! If they don't notice the blindingly bright neon they'll definitely notice that rainbow sparkle! 

What do you guys think? Do you think I'm crazy yet? Or just crazy enough?

Talk to you next time loves :)

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter guys!

I hope you're all having a wonderful day with friends and family!

I wanted to do something fun for my Easter nails this year so I decided to go with Easter egg tribal nails! I so love how these came out let me know what you guys think!

I started off with a base of Sinful Colors Snow Me White. When it dried I created all of the designs with various colors of acrylic paints. I sealed it all in with a layer of Seche Vite and added a final layer of NYC Matte Me Crazy for a flat finish.



This color combination is so fun and springy I really enjoyed wearing these on my nails! What do you guys think?

What are you doing for Easter this year?

Thanks loves :)

Galaxy Nails: Tribal Space Edition

Yes this awesomesauceness of a manicure just happened.... whatttttt

I don't even know where this idea came from but I am obsessed! I wanted to do some more galaxy nails because I haven't done any in a while and then I just started painting over them with white acrylic paint and then this happened... galaxy nails, the tribal space edition ;) 

Okay let's get this process rolling! I started with a base of E.L.F Sea Escape on all of my nails. When that was dry I created the galaxies using Essie Blanc, Color Club Over The Moon, Color Club Eternal Beauty, Lime Crime Parfait Day and Lime Crime Lavendairy. I added a layer of China Glaze Fairy Dust for the starry effect but you really can't even see it -_- LOL Then I used white acrylic paint and a small nail art brush to create the tribal design on top. When everything was dry I decided to mattify it with NYC Matte Me Crazy and tadaaaaa! 




Does this next picture look incredibly orange to you? In my files it looks normal but every time I upload it to blogger it looks so orange and no matter how many times I delete it and upload it again it won't change... so I hope it looks normal but if it doesn't I'll have to delete it again boo!!!


I really just love these so much! A little bit of self love isn't bad right...... right?! LOL 

So what do you guys think? Do you have any other ideas for galaxy nails?
Thanks loves :)

Neon tribal

Hello dears!

I'm not going to lie... I'm extremely jealous of anyone who can do a tribal nail... like I can't even handle it! Lol! But! I've been practicing and I think I'm improving! Improving enough to show you guys my attempt anyways ;) I'm not sure why exactly I used neon colors, I just kind of picked three colors I liked together and they just so happened to all be neon coincidence?! I don't think so!

I started off with a base of OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls. Then I took China Glaze I'm With the Lifeguard, Nina Ultra Pro Blue Blaze, and Orly Highlighter and blocked off my nails. After that I took my smallest striping brush and outlined and doodled with some black acrylic paint. I top coated with Poshe and I was done! 






Since I love mattifying neons I was dying to see what these looked like mattified. I used NYC Matte Me Crazy below:



I'm not sure which way I like it better... I really love neons mattified but there's just something about that shine that stands out to me ;) Which way do you guys prefer? 

Thanks so much loves :)

I cheated! The *almost* tribal nails...

Good morning!

Ugh is it really Thursday again?! I feel like I was just writing to you guys about how much I don't like Thursdays... hmmmmm! 

Well anyways many of you know that I really want to do tribal nails, like really bad. But the thing is I'm too scared to do them T.T I just can't imagine getting all those lines so perfect and not muddying them up. I think I need to do more youtube research on them. I needed to paint my nails last night and didn't really have a lot of time so I decided that I would do some good old stamping because it doesn't really take too long. I was looking through my Bundle Monster plates and came upon a design that reminded me a lot of tribal print! I almost cut myself taking that plate out of the stack so fast! LOL! It didn't stamp as cleanly as I would have wished but hey I'll take it! ;)


Colors used:
- Lime Crime Once in A Blue Mousse
- L.A. Colors striping polish in Black










This makes me want to try tribal nails even worse! UGH! Anyone know of any good tutorials out there? I'm determined now and when I'm determined nothing stands in my way.... except for sparkly things.... dammit! 

So what do you guys think?
