Faded Leopard Print

Faded leopard print nails :)


I used Essie Sand Tropez as the base and sponged on Zoya Kristen. The leopard spots are Zoya Caitlin. On top is  Northern Lights Holographic Top Coat. 



Butterfly Nails

Here are butterfly nails I did on a friend on mine a few weeks ago!  (Hi Jess - you're famous now!)

I used Zoya Caitlin for the base and sponged Zoya Neeka on the tips.
Added Northern Lights Hologram Top Coat. 







What do you think?

Post more soon!

Day 21 - Inspired by a COLOR

Hi Everyone! Don't hate me! I promise to be back up to date soon. This weekend was so hectic.

So for the manicure, I wasn't really sure what "Inspired by a COLOR" meant. I was looking through my colors and picked up China Glaze's For Audrey. This is one of my favorite polishes, and has always reminded me of robin's eggs. So what did I do? I drew a bird with a nest of robin's eggs.

I used e.l.f.'s Smoky Brown as a base and black Stripe Rite nail art for the branches. As for the nest, I just added some white to the Smoky Brown. For the flower petals I used Zoya's Erika and

Day 14 - Flower Design; Cherry Blossoms

Hi Everyone! I promise today's nails are much better than yesterdays peacock design.

The theme for today is flowers so I decided to use cherry blossoms as inspiration.


I went with a simple design using a base coat of Zoya Kristen, black nail art striper & for the flowers I used Zoya Ginessa and Revlon Oh My Magenta.

I really liked how they turned out, I've never done cherry blossom designs before. 







I hope everyone is loving this design as much as I am!

Check and see what the other girls came up with for flower designs!

Day 11 - Polka Dot Nails

Day 11 - Polka Dot Nails


I think I still have yesterdays theme stuck in my head. I wanted to do something different for Polka Dot nails, but in the end polka dot nails are pretty boring. I chose pinks because I thought maybe it would be nice look for Valentine's day.

For this mani, I started with a base of Wet n Wild Wild Shine Black Creme and from light to dark were Zoya Ginessa, Bebe, and Renee. 







Keeping the post short today! Hope you liked it and come back tomorrow to see Stripe nails!

Day 9 - Rainbow Nails; USE ALL THE COLORS!

Day 9 - Rainbow Nails

Today is rainbow nails! What better way to show off my inner 90's kid than with Lisa Frank inspired nails. If you don't know who Lisa Frank is then you have not lived.

Obviously a fashion icon. 
That is what it looks like when you throw up rainbows. Lisa was ahead of her time. Little did she know we would all be copying her rainbow gradient with animal print 20 years later. Looking through the shop confirmed how timeless Lisa Frank really is. She's been selling the same exact stuff, for what, 30 years and kids eat this up like its a brand new idea. Marketing geniuses. Now if only she'd come to the land of grown ups and collaborate with Betsey Johnson or someone who would accept her inner wild child and make some rainbow leopard/zebra print pumps! Seriously. I'd buy them in a heart beat.

So I guess I'm done rambling for now, onto the manicure!









Here are the polishes I used. When I said in the title "USE ALL THE COLORS" I literally meant I used so many colors.

Sinful Colors - Black on Black

There are a few polishes I can't remember names for at the moment so I'll update them later when I get the chance!

If I didn't make it clear earlier, I just want to say that I freaking love Lisa Frank. She combines all of my favorite things: bright colors, glitter, animal print, cute furry animals and makes these fantastically horrible creations with them. What more could a girl ask for in life? Nothing. Well... except maybe some more nail polish.


I'm obsessed with this manicure. Usually I post these manicures hoping people will like them, but this one I don't even care because I'm obsessed enough for everyone.


Be sure to check out what the others did for today's mani! And follow us on twitter too!




P.S. This manicure is dedicated to my roommate! She had a poster over her bed sophomore year that was most definitely Lisa Frank. Even though she swears it was just some abstract grown up rainbow splatter thing, I know better. I can spot a genuine Lisa Frank creation a mile away. So here's to you Erin, embracing your inner 90's kid before it was cool.
