Part of your *gradient* world


HAPPY FRIDAY LOVERS!!
Here we have a glittery gradient....that I felt was too pretty to put anything on top....
So today, these fingers get their own post!

Lately the weather's been amazing. It's finally feeling like Spring...So I went with my pastels and brights!


Color Club- Wild Child, Sephora/OPI- It's Hippo to be Square, China Glaze- Fairy Dust

I also used a packing sponge....
All I got to say is....
Dear Sam from Nailsaurus....you've created a monster....(see her tutorial here)

...a gradient monster...

*RAAAAWWWWWRRRRRR*

This colour combination reminds me of Little Mermaid...
*hence the title*

Anyway, I'm so in love with this gradient....and this technique....


GUH...


Have a good weekend, everyone!!

Pebbles & Leopard


Happy hump day, everyone!!
Today's nails consist of shades of purple, leopard RAWR, and love.


This was inspired by this Mani Meuse post on Tumblr

I fell in love with the colour combination, and the prints, I figured I'd recreate them on my nails!
To achieve my look, I used the following:


OPI- Skull & Glossbones, Sephora/OPI- It's Hippo To Be Square, Rimmel- Wild Orchid, and purple acrylic paint

Also, out of the 10 tip sizes my dotting tool set came with, none of them were small enough to achieve this.
So I got creative and made this:
Why yes, that is a needle taped to a q-tip...lol

I then put a layer of China Glaze's Fairy Dust on my accent finger....


But I changed my mind because it didn't look as cool as I thought it would...
So I redid it, and changed it back to just a clear coat over top....


Fun times!! =D

Have a good Wednesday, lovers!

Heaven...

Happy Thursday, lovers and friends!

Yesterday I visited Secret Nail & Beauty Supplyit's a beauty supply store
... and my life is forever changed ...
Where have I been all this time? I don't think I'll ever leave this place without buying anything.

First I saw THIS:

...a wall display full of China Glaze... *freak out* 
I CAN HAZ?!

Then within minutes, these things magically appeared in my basket...
I don't know how they got there....I swear.... 


Here are my purchases from yesterday:

China Glaze- Fairy Dust (!!), Color Club- Wild Child, Daisy Nail Polish- (I forgot the name), and SUN Glasses, Please! and a CND Super Matte Top coat.
Not in the picture: Pink Polish remover, and a clear nail wheel

Well of course I couldn't wait to play with them....
So I swatched some of them along with the polishes I bought on Monday on my wheel...

I'll get more in depth with each and every one of them eventually...but I wanted to show you first!!
LOOK HOW PRETTY!!

CG- Fairy Dust over Black...instant HOLO!


....and then this happened....



This guy looks like a pokemon or something...

My new mascot! I shall name him...
