Since having a child I have gotten better and have developed a love of polish. This is a place for me to post pictures of my simple, short, and inexpensive painted nails.Aithnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03014349830956738845noreply@blogger.comBlogger20125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2061799922232321658.post-89327727113268966632012-04-17T12:19:00.001-04:002012-04-28T22:54:36.180-04:00St. Paddy's nails<div><p>I have completely fallen behind and have a backlog of photos that I will hopefully be able to show you once I figure out how to schedule posts from my phone .</p>
<p>These are my St. Patrick Day themes nails. I am not very skilled at nail art but I loved these! </p>
<p>Unfortunately I only took 1 picture in poor lighting. I can still tell you what I did though. I did a base of Nicole by OPI's "It's all about the Glam" on all nails but my ring fingers. On my pointer finger I drew a cauldron in black. For the gold I used Milani's Jewel FX "Gold", and was very impressed with how it looked.
For my ring fingers I did a base of Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear "Going Green". I then did a stripe of black as a belt and used a gold for the buckle.<font color ="#000000">every</font></p>

As it is now dieing out I finally got around to doing it. I am such a slacker! </p>
<p>I learned a lot about my abilities and the abilities of my polished. The white I used needs more that one coat to be solid enough for me. I found it works better at the top part of the cloud. I also learned that I need to work on my patience and wait much longer on dry times for this mani since I am stacking colors.</p>
<p>Unfortunately I just got the picture of my thumb before I got distracted, did something around the house and snuffed the Crap out of all my nails. I was almost in tears. Well I guess I live and learn. The colors I used were Wet n Wild "How I Met Your Magenta" , then China Glaze "Champagne Bubbles", and the white I used was Buckle by OPI "It's All About the Glam" </p>
<p>This is also my first time posting from my phone. We will see how it turns out.</p>

Here I am back again. I could give you a list of reasons why I haven't posted in a while but the big one is: I am a lazy sod. On to today's nails.<br />
<br />
I live in New England, so today I will be going to a friends house for a Super Bowl Party. The colors I have chosen work for both teams, but deep down I will be routing for the Patriots.<br />
<br />
It was hard for me to figure out what kind of manicure I could do that didn't scream LOOK AT ME I LOVE AMERICA WOOOO since the Pats colors are red, white, blue and silver.<br />

<br />
My husband saw me struggling and actually suggested this. The blue I used is Sinful Colors "Ciao Bella" which is a nice dark blue with some shimmer in it, I had an issue actually finding a dark blue. I have found that often times blues look much darker when they are in the bottle than on the nail.<br />
<br />
The Crackle I used is Sally Hansen "Fractured Foil". I made sure to put it on thick to get some nice big cracks for the blue to show nicely.<br />
<br />
I put this manicure on my hands and then ended up doing bath time for the little lady and two of my nails started to peel at the tips. I cleared them off, put down the base of blue, decided to put some sparkle on (because why not!), and then crackled them. The sparkle I put on them is Confetti "Tinsel" You can just barely see the sparkles but it's just enough that it makes me smile when I notice them.<br />

Hello Hello! Life has been very hectic and will continue to be hectic so I don't know how much I will be posting. I will be going on vacation, and then immediately after moving to a new apartment.<br />
<br />
Even though it is fall I felt an extreme urge to do some super pink nails! I put Sally Hansen HD Hi Res as the base which seemed like a nice warm color. I wasn't just happy with pink I wanted super girly sparkily pink!!<br />
<br />
I then put on two coats of Sally Hansen HD Byte! I love this color! This pink has a blue shimmer to it. It is gorgeous, I can't stop staring at my nails!<br />
<br />
Now my nails are looking a little messy as I did them during a Raid..and I am still there. Shhhh don't tell anyone, luckily I doubt any of my raiders will read this. I will clean up the edges..at some point.<br />
<br />
Also I wanted to share a mani I did a while ago but somehow did not post. I then deleted a bunch of the pictures...meaning all of them but one. I love love love RedBull! For me it tastes like liquid pixie sticks. I felt the need to share my love with the world with this Redbull inspired manicure.<br />

I love fall so much! I enjoy the tempature better than any other season. I decided to celebrate it's coming and try to fight off the blues that 3 days of rain brings you with a fall manicure.<br />
<br />
I took part in Zoya's recent awesome promotion of buy one get two free. This is probably the only time I will be able to get Zoya since I tend to stick to polishes more in the $2 range. For this manicure i am using Penny and Jem.<br />
<br />
As you can see Penny is a beautiful copper, I feel like a robot when I wear it hehe! I put Jem on my middle finger. I am not as impressed with Jem as I thought I would be. In the bottle it has a big shimmer to it, but it is very dark on my nails.<br />

I have been in love with Polka Dots lately. I dress my little one in them whenever I can the poor darling. So I decided to dress my nails in them today as well.<br />
<br />
I did the Polka Dots with a toothpick. I don't have any special dotting tools so I make due. I think the dots came out smaller than I like so next time I will try a bobby pin.Aithnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03014349830956738845noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2061799922232321658.post-24987209819598059172011-09-04T13:26:00.002-04:002011-09-04T13:26:47.641-04:00Glitter Tips<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right; margin-left: 1em; text-align: right;"><tbody>

Once again I had a spectacular idea but I just can't sit still long enough to let it dry.<br />
<br />
I put a base coat of a polish I picked up a couple years ago Revlon's Steel-Her Heart. That went on nicely in two coats. I then decided to sponge on Sally Hansen's Spectrum on the tip.<br />
<br />
I then decided it would be a great idea to go type frantically and mess up all but two fingers. I really am a spaz. Spectrum is really a beautiful polish. I put a couple coats of it over a black base and couldn't' stop staring at my fingers. Of course I didn't take pictures (read spaz)<br />

I had picked up an angled brush for clean up as I have seen suggested in other blogs. Unfortunately I had crack hands and could not steady them for clean up or the glitter striper brush. Oh well at least I have polish on my nails!! The blue is the gorgeous My Lifesaver by Nicole by OPI. I love this color, it feels so feminine.<br />

Sorry for the long gap in posts I have no reasons beside I am lazy and had no inspiration. Today I am going to show you a manicure that I would have been upset about last year but this year I fixed. As stated before I am a big nerd. I raid on WoW which sometimes gives me a free few moments during down time to paint my nails by the light of my monitor lol.<br />

</tbody></table>I started out with a nice base coat of Platinum. I let that dry and then slapped some hole reinforcers to do a half moon mani (my fav) I always want to be symmetrical so I decided to fight against that urge and only do it on random nails. I painted on some Buffy the Violet Slayer since I also love purple. <br />
<br />
Apparently I had not waited long enough for my white base to dry because when I pulled up my reinforcers I pulled up some of the white! eek! Normally I would have been almost in tears (I was a perfectionist/spaz) but mommyhood has calmed me thankfully. I tried to neaten and reapply with the white, but you could tell that something went wrong with this mani.<br />

I woke up to find on top of the other issues with it I also got sheet creases! I was just about to give up the ghost and take it all off when I had a thought. Glitter gives a new texture by itself so it can be more forgiving on my mistakes. I grabbed some glitter (LA Colors Sassy Sparkle) and put on a coat. Volia! A saved by the glitter! I was happier with the result. This lasted a couple hours until I had to do dishes and they peeled at the tips. I wish I had a dish washing machine!!!<br />
<br />
Also as a Side Note, why would L.A. Colors not write the name of their polish on the bottles?

I try to see at least one or two a day. I am so impressed with what they can do with scotch tape. I have decided to try and recreate the "Mummy Tape Mani" that I saw over at <a href="http://nailside.blogspot.com/2011/04/tutorial-mummy-tape-mani.html">Nailside</a>. The author Jane is amazing with what she can do! She has definitely inspired me to do some more difficult things with scotch tape.<br />

I love this color! I have read that it is an almost dupe for China Glaze's "For Audrey". I have no other color like it. It's a lovely robin's egg blue. I put My Lifesaver as the base color for ever finger but my ring fingers. For those I put Sinful Colors Casablanca which is a lovely one coat silver.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZ8YadN08X-7fPND8jp7Khsmk52Og1eYtIP6bZWznNy1h0Y3dGFeoE0lnzs9Kbn_igOGHe_BnFAG6PQpLF6Ur6QQKuTmzpzWpj_UeJouR8zVE2TVD-RNdVYlwAKLrVqOz6PD9V7AoRi7A/s1600/mylifesaverbottle.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZ8YadN08X-7fPND8jp7Khsmk52Og1eYtIP6bZWznNy1h0Y3dGFeoE0lnzs9Kbn_igOGHe_BnFAG6PQpLF6Ur6QQKuTmzpzWpj_UeJouR8zVE2TVD-RNdVYlwAKLrVqOz6PD9V7AoRi7A/s200/mylifesaverbottle.jpg" width="119" /></a>I then tore off a strip of scotch tape and stuck it to my hand a couple of times to take off some of the sticky. I then cut the stripes and put them on my nails. I put the opposite color on over the tape and for the first time pulled off the tape with tweezers instead of my fingers. This was suggested in Jane's tutorial and i found it worked quiet well.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I did this manicure yesterday, didn't take any pictures like a noob and then destroyed them doing the dishes.

I got my first of the Finger Paints brand and my first China Glaze. I may have squealed.<br />
The brown is called <b>Hue are you?</b>, the first coat was very streaky but the second coat evened it out. The green was dark and creamy and went on in one coat, it's called <b>Scenery Greenery</b>. The blue I was very excited about but was disappointed once it got on the nail even though it was a one coater. It has since grown on me, it's called <b>Artistic Azure</b>.

I realized I didn't really have a picture showing the green nicely, so I took another picture by a window. This color is exciting me for Yule, it is a fall/winter color for me at least. The last item I got was a China Glaze cuticle oil with a Peppermint scent. I love this oil and can't stop smelling my fingers like a creeper. I have never had cuticle oil before, so we will see how it goes.<br />

I am also posting from my phone for the first time as well. </p>
<p>For this manicure I used Pure Ice Splash which is a very barbie pink in my mind and I used the LA colors silver striper polish.</p>
<p>I love half moon manicures so I did another one and I wanted it to be summery so I choose hot pink. Then to try and cover up my messy line I added a little sparkle, because I love sparkles.</p>
<p>I also added my nicely price mini haul. I got the silver striper and LA Colors Seashell for a dollar each at the dollar tree. I don't wear gold normally but it was to pretty to pass up.</p>

For this manicure I am representing the opposing faction: the Horde. For me they have always been the cooler group, the Greasers to the Jocks of the Alliance if you get my completely non related analogy. For this manicure since I had a striper (don't type stripper, don't type stripper) polish in black from LA Colors I decided not to try another go at scotch tape tips.<br />

</tbody></table>For the base color on all by my ring finger I used Wet n Wild's Everyone Loves Redmond, and I did the tips with LA Colors Art Deco Black. For my ring finger cause i love sparkles I did a base coat of Wet n Wild's Ebony hates Chris and put 1 layer of <a href="http://shop.cultnails.com/">Cult Nails</a> Captivated. I love this polish but I am horrible at trying to take it's picture!<br />
<br />
While the Horde isn't really a sparkly bunch (that's more the Alliance) I just had to use Captivated. I feel like Abu with the ruby in Aladdin. It's just so shiney! I wore this over to my Horde friends house and it recieved oohs and ahhs. Then it started to chip and peel, but I loved it while it lasted.<br />

I love World of Warcraft or WOW. In the game there are two factions. I have decided to start trying to do WOW related manicures.<br />
<br />
Today I am representing the Alliance. They have a beautiful blue background in their banner. The details are done in a bright yellow. I have represented these with Wet n Wild Saved by the Blue and The Wonder Yellows.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsIxPiPOrYBcyB7Ut-ByQYujW485Ix_01UnjDETNwiT2wNzGXgYSVClIf1I59W3pFec9Ky405D_FrYKzhpGhBmfFjbSyk1xZ_yulUXur8_1shheUcbuxdgywNFHHKwBb0lor2vLrlrnug/s1600/IMG_0722.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsIxPiPOrYBcyB7Ut-ByQYujW485Ix_01UnjDETNwiT2wNzGXgYSVClIf1I59W3pFec9Ky405D_FrYKzhpGhBmfFjbSyk1xZ_yulUXur8_1shheUcbuxdgywNFHHKwBb0lor2vLrlrnug/s200/IMG_0722.JPG" width="200" /></a></div><br />
The blue went on nicely, much nicer than Sally Hansen's that I used on my half moon mani I did. It went on in two coats. I did the tips using scotch tape. I am still a huge fail at this. The yellow needed more than one coat and was afraid of peeling the tape with dry polish.<br />
<br />
I pulled off the tape and the polish lifted up on the edge cause it was half dry and gooey. It was not neat but I got my yellow tips. Hopefully I will improve because I am impressed with what can be done with scotch tape.<br />

I thought they would be a fabulous looking summer manicure. The end result was no where near what i imagined. I did this manicure probably over a week ago and at this point I don't even remember the glorious idea that made this happen.<br />
<br />

I also enjoy the orange on my ring finger of Sally Hansen HD Three D. Three D I find goes on a little thing and leans of the red over the yellow side of the orange spectrum. The yellow tip on my middle finger is Sally Hansen HD Lite. Now I love this color but it did not work well.<br />
<br />
I am still getting used to trying to do Scotch tape manicures. Before I read any tutorials I wouldn't de-stickafy them at all and wait for the paint to dry before pulling them off. So now I am finding an issue of being afraid to do more than one coat with it, being afraid that letting the first coat dry will mess it up. Well this whole process is trial and error so I will work on it.<br />

I have been seeing people doing monarch manicures. I have always been impressed by them. I am going to be in a wedding on Saturday as a bridesmaid. I didn't want to do anything too bright right now just in case I get lazy and leave it on. Her colors are green and light purple.<br />
<br />
I watched a couple tutorials and decided to try it. I was very surprised how well it turned out! I used Sally Hansen Gentle Blossom for my base color and I used the L. A. Colors black striper. For the dots I used a wet n' wild white polish and a toothpick. I will definitively be doing it again with bright colors!Aithnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03014349830956738845noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2061799922232321658.post-74881424450750123312011-06-14T17:06:00.000-04:002011-06-14T17:06:24.538-04:00Failed Mani and a cold<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><tbody>

<br />
<br />
I wanted to try out the new sparkles I picked up earlier that day. It was a tiny bottle of Bon Bons I can't even find a name, but it is a dark pink line glitter with random blue ones mixed in. The glitter polish itself had a pink tint to it and it changed the look of the Cyber.<br />
<br />

The lasting power of this was amazing! I don't know if it was the Cyber or the magic of glitter.<br />
<br />
I like to believe it was the glitter! <3 <br />

</tbody></table>I haven't mastered the moon mani yet. I had some bleeding through happen on this attempt. I just loved the color's too much to be bothered by the imperfections for now.<br />
<br />
The base is Pure Ice Platinum, starting at the thumb I used Sally Hansen HD Hi-Res, Three D, Lite, Hi-Def, and BLU.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
BLU is beautiful but very thin, the same with the green Hi-Def. The star of the mani is Lite the yellow. It is a one coat glory. <br />
<br />
I absolutely loved wearing this but unfortunately I ruined it it within a hour of finishing it. I went to go wash bottles and somehow smooshed the (as far as i knew dry) pinky nail. I could only stand looking at it for a day and a half before I took it off.Aithnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03014349830956738845noreply@blogger.com0
