Rainbow water marble

I have been on a water marble kick lately. My sister was interested in learning in how to do it, so now I'm all about it again. This is actually 6 colors, but the blue kind of fades into the purple. Oh well. I used Sephora OPI "What Aura Gonna Wear?" (pink), Sally Girl "Orange" (scented orange), OPI "Candlelight" (yellow), Sally Girl "Lime" (green lime scented), Sally Girl "Coconut" (blue coconut scented), and Sephora OPI "It's Hippo to be Square" (purple). Also, with the combo of the scented ones, my fingers smell like a bag of Skittles...and that's not too bad! :) As all water marbles turn out, I think my thumb was the best!

Hope you all have a great Easter weekend!

Easter egg nails

Hi guys! I have been wicked sick and off of work for 2 weeks. I mean, if you've ever had too much to drink and went to lay down to sleep and the room spins, this is what I have been feeling for these two weeks! And not even with the fun of the alcohol before hand. Really, I don't think I've had even a beer in 3 months. Anyway, since I sat here and did all sorts of nothing for that time, I thought I would do some water marble nails. I started with the base of OPI "Alpine Snow". Then I used Sephora OPI in "How Cute is That?" and "What Aura Gonna Wear?", and Sally Girl scented polishes in "Coconut" and "Banana". So not only is this very Easter egg looking, but it smells like suntan lotion too.

St. Patty's day nails #5

Today's nails are much better than the last ones I had. I used China Glaze "Paper Chasing". You know, I thought this color was called "Paper Chase", and I think that's what it was named that when I ordered it too, but the label says "Paper Chasing"...whatever. :) I stamped these with Konad special polish in white with Konad plate M22. Have a good Tuesday.

Sub-Par St Patty's Nails....

I had a grand manicure planned. Then I messed it up. Not once, but twice. And it was not the I could touch it up kind of messed up, it was the take it off and start over again kind. I had limited time before work to do it this weekend anyway, especially with losing the hour for daylight savings. I did my basecoat and thought, screw it, this is just not going to happen right now. I stamped my MJ plate that I used a few mani's ago, but used my Konad special polish in Green instead. It's not perfect, but I hope you can forgive me :)

St. Patrick's Day Mani #3

Today, I went for something simple as I ran out of time. This is Sally Hansen X-treme Wear in "Emerald City". The stamping plate was GCOCL A02, and I can't remember where I got it, or what set is was from. I used Konad Special polish in Pastel Green. Have a great Friday!!!

Second St. Patty's Day Nails

I love this magnetic polish. I have posted it before, and in this magnetic pattern. Some things you just like, you know? :) It's Nails Inc in "Spitalfields" and I used my China Glaze magnet. This polish actually comes with a fishnet pattern magnetic, but I'm not a fan. It is very weak and just looks blah to me. So, I go back to what I know works, and what I like. Is that bad? Then, I bought a ton of water decals on Amazon...the seller, I can't remember. I bought them before xmas and bought like 3 sets. They were dirt cheap, like 48 for $5.99 or something. They had all sorts of holiday themed metallic designs...snowflakes, shamrocks, easter eggs, stars and stripes, etc...so I went with one of the shamrocks just as an accent. The brand of decals is Fuji. Again, I have no idea of the seller or if this is a retail brand, or that sellers brand, or what. The packaging only has the directions on it, no distributor, no "made in" whatever country, nothing. I love water decals though. So easy to work with, they can have multiple colors in one design, and they don't smear like Konad-type stamps. Now I still love Konad stamps, don't get me wrong, but you gotta love the simplicity of water decals. Have a great Wednesday!

Square Hue Polish

I am going to try to do only St. Patrick's day manis until St. Patrick's day. We'll see how my plan works :) This is Square Hue polish. It's a polish of the month club that I was turned onto by The Polishaholic. Every month you get 3 polishes that, thusfar, has been month/holiday themed. In January, the colors were two blue hues and a shimmer white. Then February was pinks and reds. Now, for March, a hunter green, a copper, and a gold. This green is called "Patty's Pint." The polish is made in the USA, if that matters to anyone, and has pretty good wear. I used my MJ plate and Konad Special polish in gold for the design. This is 2 coats...for the most part. I had a few nails where I painted a little thin, so those have 3. Hope you all have a great day!
