Chunky!!!

So I finally got my hands on some Kleancolors polishes and I’m loving them so far. This is one and a half coats of Army Green topped with two gorgeous coats of Chunky Holo Black! I love this combo so much. It is yellow and orange and gold and green and black all at the same time! It’s so stunning and somehow subtle at the same time. I have been wearing it for several days now and I’m only having a bit of chipping on the places where my nails are weak. I’m impressed!

Holo stamping

This was such a hard mani to photograph. I decided to try out holo on holo stamping. It was so cool looking. My husband said, “It looks like some kind of futuristic digital manicure.”
First pic shows the pretty holo and second is in shadow to show clearly the pattern I chose to stamp.
Have a great weekend!

Purple Zebra

Here’s a quick shot of some nails I did for my great friend, Becky.
She wanted purple and silver so I used Sinful Colors’ Amethyst as the base and stamped with Jocarste’s silver. It turned out really cute.
Ps. Jocarste silver is hard to clean off as I’m sure you can tell by her glittery fingers. 🙂
Have a great day!

Going Native

These nails were inspired by one of my favorite types of jewelry. I hope you can see the American Indian influence of the red coral and opal inlay with turquoise as well. I think it turned out very well especially considering I free-handed everything. I was worried my lines would be very uneven and crooked. But, turns out being a perfectionist can pay off in some areas. 🙂

I created these for a nail art challenge hosted by Louise of Mommy Loves Nail Polish to celebrate her blossoming Facebook page. Go check her out. She is a sweetie.

To get this look I used
Sansan – Sea green
Sally Hansen -Fireball red
Caronia – Crystal
Kiss Nail art striper in black
Dotting tool for stippling
