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!
Last night I had dinner with a friend and got home too late to want to attempt complicated nail art so I did a snowy, SUPER SPARKLY glitter gradient! I did the gradient by layering China Glaze Glistening Snow underneath Finger Paints Santa’s Magic. They’re both so pretty and holographic and sparkly I could throw up. More pictures and words at my blog!
Hahahaha you guys I laugh every time I look at these nails. I love them so much, they are so funny to me. Even my boyfriend laughed when I showed him. Weather puke! Read more at my blog where there are a lot more pictures because I’ve never done both hands differently so I had a hard time narrowing my pictures down! What do you guys think of these? Do they make you giggle like a little school child too?
I’ve been in a paint-my-nails-every-day mood this week, but when I put on the purple base for this manicure (Zoya Malia) a couple days ago, I fell completely in love with it and couldn’t bear the thought of taking it off the next day, so I just did some nail art over it! I seriously don’t think I’ve ever had a love affair with a simple creme polish like the one that’s going on between me and Malia right now. READ MORE AT MY BLOG GUYS.
These nails are based on a pillowcase I had while I was staying with my brother and best friend in San Francisco. I had been wanting to do them ever since I got there and saw the pillowcase but didn’t have time until the last night I was there (Friday). We stayed up all night since we had to leave really early for the airport (and had been on the night shift anyway) and around 3:30 AM we had a nail painting party. I was so pumped to be able to do nail art again. These were really fun to do, I feel like I usually do really precise designs and these were kind of random and messy, which was a nice change of pace!

I got 3 of the Spoiled by Wet n’ Wild glitters the other day so I tried out one of them on my ring fingers because I just couldn’t wait. And then I tried my matte topcoat for the first time and I loved how dreamy it made these nails look so I took a quick pic so I could share with you guys!

i have a friend that does a street art project called catlanta, where he makes cats out of wood, magnets and other things and hides them throughout the city and then posts pictures of them online so people can go and find them. it’s a really cool project and it’s gotten super popular, so last night when we were hanging out i told him i wanted to do some catlanta nails. these are based off of the pattern on this cat and even though they took FOREVER to do i really love them!

so i picked up three of the new milani spring colors and wanted to use all of them RIGHT AWAY and this is what happened! i thought they’d be more pastel but they turned out super bright, maybe cuz i layered them over white. i think i like them even better this way. i was totally not prepared for the time commitment of these nails though, they took over an hour just for one hand but at least now i know i can make a LOT of really tidy lines over and over. i feel like i can do anything to my nails now! my imagination is my only limitation!
haha ugh sorry for that last sentence there you guys.
