Pinsperation

Hi guys!

I'm back with another Pinterest inspired mani! Todays inspiration comes from "Nuthin' But a Nail Thing".

Here is the link to her original design.

When I came across this on Pinterest I knew IMMEDIATELY that I wanted to try it! I decided to go with a white to mint gradient with sort of a gradient polka dot effect. Here is what I used and how it looked!



-Essie Turquoise and Caicos 
-Kleancolor White


Essie-Turquoise and Caicos-Butter London-Matte

 AND because I think Matte is the coolest thing ever I decided to matte them! 



Matte Finish By Butter London is really great! I think its one of the best out there. I found this one on a blog sale for 8 bucks! Score!!!!!

So what do you guys think? I totally love these nails. Both matte and with a top coat. I want to do this mani over and over again with different colors! LOL 

Have a wonderful Friday!

Rainbow Gradient

Hi guys. Today I did a Rainbow Skittle Gradient. I decided to try my luck at gradients again and I think I did ok!

I apologize I wrote down all the colors I used but I can't find that paper anywhere! And I am too lazy to go upstairs and look for it! ahahahaha I used a total of 12 colors with a coat of glitter on top. I kinda dig them. Perfect for pride weekend!

Have a wonderful day!

Purple Gradient

Hi guys!

Today I did a purple gradient then topped it with my fave..animal print! Gradients have been so tough for me to learn. I don't know what it is with them but I have so much trouble getting something I like. Today the gradient Gods were with me because it turned out pretty good. Heres what I did!

and here are the colors I used..

Kleancolor White, China Glaze Spontaneous, Essie Lilacism, and Out The Door for my Top Coat.


Not to shabby huh! I just might get this gradient thing down after all!

Have a great day!

Winter Wonderland

I love snow! Sadly I've only seen the snow once or twice in my life. :( I decided to do a snowman mani because who doesn't love a snowman! I wanted something light and bright and I think I achieved it.





I love this mani! I think its sooo cute. I entered this in a contest over at Manicured Mommas on Facebook. Hope I win! 

Ciao!

Essence Gradiant Mani



Hi there!! 

Today I have a pretty gradient mani I did using the Essence shades I bought from Ulta the other day. The red is "Do You Speak Love" and the Blue is "The Boy Next Door".



 I like the way this turned out. I love the purple that was created by the red and blue blending together.

Short post! Ciao!
