I really, really want it to be spring, but we keep having cold spells, and even snow. I’m getting very sick of it, so I’m bringing some spring colours to my sweaters. Using a white base, I went for a sweater pattern, but tried to “spring” it up by using a bright magenta and a […]
We’re so close to March! Which means spring! We had a dusting of snow yesterday, so I’m ready for spring nails. The Mary Kay spring 2017 collection of nail polish is very fitting, and inspired me to do a dotted look. First, a swatch of my chosen base colour. This is New Blue, which is […]
I’m back with a second nail art look using the CND Vinylux New Wave Collection. This trio reminded me of a sunset, so I used that as my inspiration. As I mentioned in my other nail art post, I won the CND Vinylux New Wave Collection in a giveaway, and split the polishes into two […]
What is this? I actually have a #ManiMonday look? Aren’t you impressed? Full credit goes to my new DIY lightbox, which allowed me to do my look and photograph it in the evening. But on with the nail art! I recently won the CND Vinylux New Wave Collection in a giveaway from Olive & Ivy, […]
I had a plan for today’s nail art look, but then I got lazy and decided to do something simpler instead. I wanted some sparkle, so I decided to try an ombre look where each nail is a different colour, and the overall pattern goes light to dark. The ombre affect isn’t super clean since […]
First post, and first nail art look of 2017! I wanted something simple, yet fun. Something neutral, but interesting. I settled on a medium grey base with some white feather decals. It captured the look I wanted perfectly. My base is two coats of Sephora Formula X in Grey Matter. Like most Formula X polishes, […]
This week’s holiday nail art is once again all about Avon Gel Finish polishes, this time in green and gold. Wait, there’s no nail art there. That’s right. Let’s start with just the green this time. This is 2 coats of Avon Gel Finish in Envy. This is a dark green polish that seems to […]
Holiday nail polish sets are one of my favourite gift items. There is something about mini bottles that is just so adorable! Larger sets like the Formula X Holiday 2016 X In The City Mini Nail Polish Set have so much variety, everyone is sure to find at least one shade they love. The Formula […]
Is it time for Christmas nail art yet? I was going to wait until December, but that’s only a few days away, so let’s start now. As my first official holiday nail art, I chose red with gold stamped stripes. It’s bright and cheery, and could be very holiday, but also rather classic and appropriate […]
I love little nail polish sets, for a couple reasons. The first is that mini nail polish bottles are adorable. The second is the size is usually practical, I mean really, how many people actually finish a bottle of nail polish? The third is that you know the colours in a set will work together. […]
