Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Hello Everyone!

Today I have quick nail art post for St. Patrick's Day! These are simple designed I created and I will list the details below! Let me know what you think in the comments! :)

This first nail design was created using Ali by Julep from the Pop of Color collection. I then went over Ali with Snow-Flakes by Color Club. Using stripers from a nail supply store, I created a tartan look with black, white, gray, yellow and gold glitter. On the ring finger, I used a golden four leaf clover nail decal, which was received from my Julep Maven Pop of Color box! I thought that Ali would make for an interesting St. Patrick's Day Mani as it is a very soft and light mint color.

This second look was my first try ever at sponging ombre nails! They were much easier than I thought to do and will definitely try more sponging in the future. First I painted my nails white using Correction Tape by Spoiled. I went around my cuticles with No More Mess Liquid Nail Tape by Polished Colors (this made it so that I could easily peel off any excess color that got onto my fingers while sponging). Then, I painted Roc Solid by Julep, Lime Sundae by Lilypad Lacquer, and Innocent by Sinful Colors onto the sponge. I gently sponged the colors onto my white base and then did a second layer when the first was dry. To finish this look, I put two layers of As Gold as it Gets by Essie and two layers of Out the Door top coat. The gold three leaf clover is also from the same Julep decal sheet as before.

I love these manis and I am currently wearing them on both of my hands haha! I have been into wearing a different manicure on each hand lately. Don't forget to let me know what you think!

Until next time,

Polished Colors - Bloody Bones & Sacred Cat

Hello Everyone!

Today I am swatching two Halloween glitter toppers from Polished Colors! I know I'm late with the festivities but I just got these in the mail and I didn't want to wait any longer to swatch them! I will definitely be wearing them next year around Halloween and I may even be able to sneak them in around the year if I just do some glitter placement.

For these swatches I used two coats of the glitter and did some glitter placements.

Bloody Bones is a lovely glitter packed with white skulls, red hearts, black bar glitters and red and black hexes, and squares. In these photos I layered it on top of Tattle Tell by Spoiled. This glitter was easy to apply but it got thick toward the end of my application.

Sacred Cat is a very unique glitter filled with multicolored iridescent hexes, holographic moons, black cat heads and orange pumpkins. I layered Sacred Cat on top of Cutie Pie by Chick. This formula was pretty  much the same as Bloody Bones. I really loved how easy it was to get the glitters out of the bottle. I was expecting to have a hard time with this but I was proved wrong.

Polished Colors can be purchased online from their Storenvy shop. They have a lot of unique glitters so I am sure I will be swatching them again. :)

Until next time,
