I got some awesome rhinestones in the mail yesterday so for day 4 of love & heartbreak week I did this heart rhinestone gradient! These are so girly and sparkly and I’m happy with them for my actual Valentine manicure haha. Check out the full post for more pictures and stuff!
Both nail challenges I’m doing coincided today - it’s day 3 of love & heartbreak week with the Digit-al Dozen and also day 5 of the geometric challenge, for which the theme is “straight”. I did these to fit into both challenges because I am WAY too lazy for two posts in a day haha. Check out the full post for more pictures & how I did them!
This is just an iPhone pic of the first step of my nail art project last night but I love this color combo and the stripes so much I kinda just wanted to leave them like this haha
I couldn’t handle the thought of doing anything complicated last night so I did these minimalist abstract water-inspired nails based on this painting I found. I only used one shade of blue - China Glaze Ride the Waves, which is a jelly - and just layered it until I got the tones I wanted. I ended up really liking them which helps me remember that sometimes simple designs can be really pretty too! Check out the full post for more pix & info.
Happy New Year’s Eve everyone! I did these nails for a guest post over at XOXO Alexis Leigh to celebrate her 1-year blogiversary. They’re based on her blog theme, woo! Check out the full post on her blog for more pics and to read about how I did ‘em (spoiler alert: patience and my two favorite tiny brushes). I may be back later with my NYE nails but it’s more likely that I’ll be showing those to you guys tomorrow. I hope y’all have a super fun night and stay safe!
Sup guys! I decided to make all of my Christmas gifts this year but didn’t start until the last minute so I did these last night instead of the night before like I wanted to but oh well… look at this glitter! It’s like Christmas threw up on my nails. I love it. Check out the blog post if you wanna (you do) and I hope everyone’s having a fabulous holiday season time!
Hey y’all! I have another NOTD swatch for you today. This is OPI Every Month is Oktoberfest and I’m in love with it. I could not stop staring at my nails when I was wearing it yesterday. This pic is with flash and it brings out the amazing purple shimmer that is SO PRETTY. Check out the blog post to see pics in natural light that bring out the red shimmer more!
Hi bunnies! I did some delicate fall floral nail art based on this image from Shutterstock (aka one of the best nail inspo websites everrr). I lurrve this color combo and I’m really proud that I’m getting better at doing such delicate line work with only a brush. These were all freehanded with leetle brushes and dotting tools. What do y’all think?

Hey lovers! I got some purple ombre nails from the vault to show you. Look how long and round my nails were! This makes me kinda miss them… I have lots of unposted pictures from when my nails were this length/shape though so you’ll be seeing more of them in the future. My blog has more pictures and words as well as colors used and stuff!
