For this post, I wasn't sure if it meant to use someone else's mani as inspiration, or if it meant to give a friend a new mani.. But I went with the latter, haha. And actually I re-did two of my friends nail's for this one, and I hope they loved them as much as I did :)
First up is my friend Annalucy's manicure:
See what I used, and my friend Samantha's new mani after the jump!

July Nail Art Challenge Day 10, 11, 12 - Tropical, Bird, Gradient
Okay okay, I know it's 'cheating' but gosh this was my first challenge and I get lazy! ~__~; pls forgive me. But this mani was a lot of fun to do, and to show off! I really enjoyed incorporating all the days into one!
For the gradient I used a base of C'est La Vie by Essence followed by Presto Pink and Mint Sprint by Sally Hansen. The black for the stamp is my go-to black, Hassid by American Apparel.
Again, I forgot to write down what stamping plate I used, but I will go look and update this later!

July Nail Art Challenge Day 7 - Polka Dots
So sorry for me slacking on my posts :l I have been so easily distracted lately, but hopefully this super cute mani makes up for it! The theme for today was polka dots!
I absolutely loved the way it came out! I used Mayo by ManGlaze as the white base, and glitters from American Apparel's Galaxy as the dots. I placed all the glitter on one by one with an orange stick, and honestly didn't take much time at all!

July Nail Art Challenge Day 3 - Letters
Today I have for you my first time drawing on any kind of 'lettering' or words for my nail art. I really love the way it turned out too! Much better than my shaky hand expected :)
The theme for today's nail art was 'Letters'. I really like this font and figured it would be pretty easy, and look nice and clean on the nail. The taupe base is Butter London's All Hail The Queen, a color I had been lusting over for awhile now. I will also take a pic in sunlight bc hidden in that beautiful nude, is tiny holographic shimmer! The black lettering is American Apparel's Hassid, and the Red is Zoya's Burke.

First post! First attempt at a 'fishtail/ruffle' mani
Hello! And welcome to my blogspot! I decided to make one to have a more specialized blog about my nail/beauty/personal posts. On my tumblr things definitely are scattered into a large mixture of anything that caught my eye on my dashboard. I am going to try and post everyday here, or at least as often as I can. ^-^

So this is my first post on my blogspot, and it is the mani I am currently still wearing. I saw a video tutorial by Sarah at Chalkboard Nails the other day for her 'Chevron/Fishtail' mani, and decided to try it out for myself!
