NOTD: Silver Flowers

Hey Guys!

Here's another NOTD brought to you by my BM plates, haha.

PRODUCTS USED:
  • BM16
  • LA Colours - Hypnotic
  • Nicole by OPI - Light a Candle
  • China Glaze Strong Adhesion Base Coat
  • Seche Vite
The colour "Hypnotic" actually has a greenish gold shimmer in it, but you can't see it at all in the picture. ALSO, this was my first time using this polish, and it completely dyed my nails. I used base coat and everything!! I should take a picture of them later, because they are a terrible greenish blue colour.
Not that my nails are ever plain anyways, but still.

Time to get ready for work I suppose!
Bye!

NOTD: Cupcake nails!!

Hey Guys!
K, so, anyone who knows me, knows I love cupcakes. Everything about them. Loves. Cupcakes.
So, when I seen cupcake nails circulating on google, I had to do them...
I first did them on my friend Ashley (they were a part of her birthday nails seen here!!), and I loved them. A few nights ago I decided to give them a go again, and I did all of my fingers with cupcakes on them :)
The only thing I would have changed is my colour choices. I don't know how I feel about the yellow cups. Hahaha.
Oh, I also bought a crazy florescent light bulb too, so Im hoping that will make some of my pictures brighter.
Here they areee:
More pic's and products used after the jump!

NOTD: Apple Mani

Hey Guys!
Just posting a NOTD before I head to work. For some reason I came up with apples last night when I wanted to do my nails.. I really don't know where it came from, and I actually don't even like eating red apples, but I thought this idea would be really cute!
Yayyyy Apples!
PRODUCTS USED:
  • OPI - So Many Clowns...So Little Time (Creme Base)
  • Nicole by OPI - Keep It Real (Apples)
  • Nicole by OPI - Fuchsia Wife (Applied Over Apples)
  • China Glaze - Starboard (Leaf)
  • Art Deco Black (Stems, and used with 'Keep It Real' to shade apples)
I think it came out cute, the only thing you can't see in this picture is the sparkle that "Fuchsia  Wife" gave the apples.
I think I might try some other fruit mani's, I think it could go over well!
They might be cute for summer :)
What do you think, yes? No? Maybe?


Time for me to go to work!!
Byeeee!!

NOTD: Skittles

Hey guys!

I did this 'skittles' mani, and I think it turned out great. For those of you who are unfarmilliar with the term (when I first heard of it, all I could think of was candy, haha), you have to have five different designs on one hand.
Honestly, you could do each finger differently, if you wanted, but I decided to keep both hands the same, but switch the fingers up a bit.
I loved doing this! I was sososososooooooooooooooooo happy with the polkadots! I did them with my dotting tool, and I think I did them pretty well.
What do you think? Have you ever done skittles?

PRODUCTS USED:
  • MAC - Blue India
  • China Glaze - For Audrey
  • China Glaze - Lightening Bolt
  • Sally Hansen - Whirlwind White
  • LA Colours - Current
  • Seche Vite
  • Dotting tool

I hope everyone has a great weekend!!

NOTD: Pokemon Nails - Pokeballs!

Hi guys!

So, I ordered some BM plates off of ebay a while ago, and they finally arrived! I'm so excited to try them out!! 
I got the set of 21 plates, plus the seller threw in 4 extra plates, all for the price of only $11.99!
The only thing I don't really like about the BM plates is that the full coverage stamps seem to be a bit more narrow than regular konad. Oh well, I can't complain for the price.


Okay, on to the NOTD! I seen these plastered all over the internet, and I thought they were so cute! I did these a few days ago, and honestly, they were so amazingly easy to do.
Pokeballs! Yayyyyyy!

I remember going to Burger King as a kid and buying the Pokeballs they used to sell.
I wish I still had them, it would have been awesome to hold while showing off these beauties!





 PRODUCTS USED:
  • Sally Hansen Insta-Dri - Whirlwind White
  •  Art Deco Black
  • OPI - Bullish On OPI





On a sad note, I have chopped off all my nails. They are now back to short nubs :(
They are also soooo dry and brittle. I'm starting to think it's not only the weather, but also the chemicals I use at work. Hmmm...

ALSO OUR GIVEAWAY ENDS VERY SOON.
ENTER HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bye! :)

NOTD: Easter Nails Pt 3! Chicks with a twist :)

Heyyyyyyyyyyyyy guys!

This is a quick easter NOTD that I did last week.
I wanted to do chicks with bunny ears, hahaha. I don't really like how they came out, but that's okay. They were a little rushed, and it just didn't beat the bunny nails that I did a while ago.
My cuticles are actually terrible in this picture, but I had no time to moisturize because I was actually on a boat at the time (random, I know).
HERE IT IS!..
       PRODUCTS USED:
  • Nicole By OPI - "Baby" Blue (Base)
  • A Random Yellow (Chick)
  • Art Deco Black (Eyes)
  • Art Deco White (Ears)
  • Avon - Cotton Candy (Inside Ears)
  • A Random Orange (Beak)

And on a very very sad note, I completely demolished one of my nails. It made a very clean break... Want to have a look? It might be painful to look at...  SO DEPRESSING!!!!
I know, I'm dramatic, but now I don't have pretty nails!!
Oh, a bit of this break was caused by moving around lots of merchandise at my work today, but the finale was when i was tapping my hands/fingers on my steering wheel while listening to music... that's when the real damage happened.
I really need to file it down, which means the other will probably be going too.

Thanks for listening to my ramblings, haha. I'm probably going to do another NOTD tonight... I'll keep you guys posted!

Oh yeah, don't forget to enter our giveaway !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is a pretty simple design, it only requires three colours, and any combo would work. I chose some softer colours so they could be kinda Easter like.

  • Sally Hansen - Lacey Lilac
  • Nicole by OPI - Life Saver
  • Sally Hansen Insta-Dri - Whirlwind White
  • Dotting Tool
  • Seche Vite
