Bk With Stamping

I needed a pick me up mani and decided holo was the way to go. I don’t have easy access to China Glaze, Color Club or any of those fancy holos but I did find some BK Holographic polishes which I got 3 of in purple and pink shades. This one is #24 with stamping. I’ve been putting off trying a full nail stamping but when I finally sat down to try it it turned out to be pretty easy.

I hope y’all like it. First pic is in the shade.

I’m still here

Hey y’all!

I just wanted to check in and say hello. I have been having some health issues and have been feeling pretty lousy especially in the past couple of weeks so I haven’t really been in a state to do nails as much as I’d like. My problems are mostly hormone related I think. My doctor has given me something that should help me feel better soon but it’s one of those “it’s probably going to get worse before it gets better” situations. And it’s been pretty bad. I already suffer from hormone induced migraines and because of hormone irregularities I’ve been having even more which sucks the life out of me. Fortunately I have been blessed with a fantastic husband who takes excellent care of me and two wonderful kids to make me smile even when I’m down. Hopefully i’ll be on the upside and I’ll be back to doing nails regularly soon.

On a happier note, I was ecstatic to learn this past weekend that I have been nominated for The Versatile Blogger award by two lovely fellow bloggers. I am super excited about that. More on that in the near future.

And just for fun, here is a picture of my Valentines Day gift from my sweet hubby. A nail polish rack! He made it all by himself. He said it cost about 5 dollars to make. I love my handy man.
Yeah, I know it’s not the best picture but I’m sick. Give me a break. Hehe!

Thanks for reading. I hope you all have a great day!

Skittles

Before I tell you about this mani I want to say how sad I am that my topcoat killed this manicure! Mercilessly! Just look at those bubbles. No wait, don’t look at the bubbles. Just admire it from afar. It really is super adorable minus the bubbles.

The colors I used were
Jocarste – 56 white
Jocarste – 26 silver
Jocarste – 36 pink
China Glaze – For Audrey
Sinful Colors – Black on black
Dotting tool and a striping brush

Everything was free handed and I got tons of compliments with this look. I love it when my skittles turn out this cute.

Sassy Flowers

Happy Valentines Day y’all! Here are some very feminine floral nails I just whipped up for my hot date with the hubby to the grocery store tonight! Ha! I’m not a huge fan of this subtly glittery green on its own but it makes a great base for this mani.

To get this look I used:
Chic – Peridot
Cover Girl – Sassy Stawberry
L.A. Colors – Raspberry (the darker pink)
Dotting tools

I hope y’all like it. Please leave a comment and have a great day.
