Hibiscus

I learned a valuable lesson when I did this mani. If you want to try a newspaper mani then you kinda really need to have a newspaper around to use. Ha!
I got my nails prepped and used two coats of Sansan Cloudy Gray and let it dry then went hunting for a newspaper and couldn’t find a single page in the whole house! So I changed plans. I grabbed Sinful Colors Amethyst and Why Not? And LA Colors Raspberry and one of my stamping plates and put flowers all over my nails. I like how it turned out and it lasted a long time. I have been very impressed with all my Sansan polishes. Does anyone else have any Sansan polishes? What do you think of them?

Ruffles

I tried to publish this the other day and I just discovered that it didn’t work. Oops! I’m still here. Just had a technical problem. We just got back from a trip out of town with a bunch of friends. We had a blast!

I have seen several manicures like this and never gave it a try until now. I just grabbed some colors I thought looked pretty and gave it a go. After applying two coats of the purple, I used the bottle brush in Mint Sorbet and did three strokes to make the ruffle look, then added the pink. I did have some issues with opacity especially the pink which is unfortunate. But I think it looks cute. What do you think?
To get this look I used:
Sinful colors – Amethyst
Sally Hansen Mint Sorbet
L.a. Colors – Raspberry

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.
