This past Sunday, I did some freehanded zebra stripes on Winny's nails! She already painted on School of Hard Rocks by Essie by herself so all I did was did the zebra stripes. Then added some silver for some spunk! :)
She kept saying how obnoxious it looked. haha. I actually really liked how it came out! :D

I used:
Base Color - School of Hard Rocks by Essie
Black & Silver nail striper polish

Nail Polish Haul!

From left to right:
School of Hard Rocks
Sew Psyched
Da Bush
Case Study
Thumb: School of Hard Rocks with Shine of Times on top
Added some branches for funzies!
I love all these Essie polishes! They're all just a great combo to wear as a gradient affect on your nails! They are all cremes except for Sew Psyched which is on my middle finger. It has a pearly shine to it. And obviously, Shine of the Times is an iridescent flakey polish which is so beautiful! :D


From left to right:
Mesmerize
Smooth Sailing
Size Matters
Lady Like
MOAR Essie polishes!
These are all cremes except for my middle finger once again. Smooth Sailing has an amazing shimmer to it and it's just so beautiful!!!!! All the cremes ones are really opaque! All you need is one coat! :D



From left to right:
Julieanne by Zoya
Yara by Zoya
Stop Stocking Me! by Sephora by OPI
Night Sparkle - Hello Kitty at Sephora
The first two swatches are from Zoya. The thing I love about Zoya is, I can never see the colors IRL so I kind of have to buy them blindly and let me tell you, I have never been disappointed! Zoya is super awesome!!! The first color is Julieanne and it's this beautiful bluish purplish glitter polish. The second one is Yara which I absolutely love! It's an army green color with a gold micro glitter shimmer. It's really pretty! ^^

The next two are polishes I bought at Sephora. Don't mind the middle one haha.
The first one is Stop Stocking Me and it's a metallic purple and is very opaque!
Night Sparkle is from their Hello Kitty line and once I saw Hello Kitty, I knew I HAD to get it! It's a black polish with gold micro glitters! Very cute! :)

Shine of the Times!

1 comments


I used:
Base Color - Last Chance by Sinful Colors

Shine of the Times by Essie Luxeffects
Ring Fingers - Magnetic Nail Polish Whitehall Teal &  Trafalgar Square 
by Nails Inc.

I recently bought Shine of the Times by Essie Luxeffects and WOW what a polish! The iridescent flakes are 
so pretty! At one angle, it looks like a burning orange. At another angle, it looks like a sea green! Sorry the 
pictures don't do justice :( In times like these, I wish I had a DSLR. Shine of the Times looks best when you apply it over a dark polish. Let's say you apply it on a light purple, you cannot see the awesomeness of the flakes!

On my ring fingers, I actually went to Sephora and tried out their magnetic nail polish since I can't afford them yet :( I have to say, it is SO coooool! I seriously cannot wait to get them in my possession! They're so pretty!

Simple nails for my Aunt

3 comments
Hey Everyone!

Lately, I've been doing my Aunt's nails a lot. She likes having an accent nail with a rhinestone so you'll probably be seeing a lot of that.




Here I used:
Base Color - Casting Call/Rose Sage by Wet n Wild
Shine of the Times by Essie Luxeffects
Accent Nail - Konad M21
Rhinestone




I used:
Berry Boucle by Maybelline
Ring Finger - Konad M36
Thumb - RA119
Rhinestone

I'm so glad my Aunt asks me to do her nails. Sometimes I get the urge to paint someone's nails and I usually can't paint mine because I've already done my nails and don't like to change my nails unless I've worn it for at least a week. That's why I'm so slow when it comes to updating my nail blog. Don't worry though, I'll have lots of posts this coming week! :)

Diagonal Leopard Print

4 comments
Hello! :D

First off, I just wanted to say hi to my new followers! I still don't have many followers but all 21 of you totally made me happy that you decided to follow my blog. :)

Anyway, here are this week's nails!


Taken with my crackberry
This one too. Can't forget the bow ring<3

I used:

-Base Color: Pretty Edgy by Essie
-Dots: Something Sweet by China Glaze
-Black: Time Out by Sinful Colors
-A dotting tool

So I wore Pretty Edgy for a whole day & I couldn't stand that it was just a solid color so I just HAD to add something to it. Didn't know what to do so I just did some diagonal leopard prints!

I should have a tutorial up soon :P But for now, thanks for stopping by! :)


Here you go! I know it's not the best out there but I hope this tutorial is easy to understand! :)
