Tuesday French Tips

Happy Tuesday dolls!!!! I have such a fun mani to show you today:) I think this pattern for nail art in general is one of my favorites, it just has so many potential color combos and is so super easy!!!! Check out these others I have done in the past here and here:)  For this mani I started with tips in Zoya Kitridge a nice bubblegum pink:) I then added some leopard spots with Barry M's Blueberry and Black! Followed all this with a coat of SV:) Super easy, fun and quick!!!!

What do you think of this??? Played out or Play On??? I Love it and I guess that's all that really matters:) Hope you are having a great week and staying cool (it's so freaking hot outside)

Leopard and Tips:)

Happy Thursday Dolls!!!!  Hope you all had a fabulous Memorial Day Weekend!!! As the wife of a Veteran, I salute the families of the fallen soliders who died in service of their country. I could only imagine the grief and loss that they experience!!!

On to the nail fun!!!! I was looking at Pinterest the other day (not an uncommon event at all!!!) and ran across a pin of some pretty fabulous nail art by Polish Art Addict you can see her original post here.  I used China Glaze For Audrey, Flip Flop Fantasy and Wet n' Wild Black for this mani:) I free handed the tips and leopard spots. Then I sealed it all up with 2 coats of SV.

I am super happy with the way this mani turned out. It is bright and fun and took no time at all. What do you think of this mani, do you get ideas from pinterest too???

Unusual Combo

TGIF!!!! This week have just been one disaster after another.  I really don't think I could take another day this week. On top of that I am getting ready to enter No Buy November, and with all the fabulous collections getting ready to come out for Christmas, it just makes me sad. Anyway on to the Polish:)

I got this gorgeous L'Oreal Precious Coral a few weeks ago, this coral is more of a standard coral as it has much more of a red/orange undertone vs the pink undertones we saw so much of this Spring and Summer. A Great choice for Fall:) For my accent I choose Essie Turquoise & Caicos:) This is one of my favorite polishes, the color is just so bright and creamy.   Then I added on a few leopard spots and a coat of HK Girl and tada:)

I am so in ♥ with the leopard accent nails.  I just think it is sooo fun!!!! I wanna try a Jelly leopard mani, Maybe I will work on that this weekend.  I'll let you know how it goes:) Have a Great Weekend and don't forget to pick up some Candy for Halloween:)

Surfin' for Boys

Surfin for Boys was not the first Polish in the China Glaze Summer Neon Collection to catch my eye. In fact, I didn't even think twice about it until it went on sale at Sally's, even then I almost passed on it but my hubby said "ohhh I like it", so I thought what the heck.

This polish is a neon red/pink shimmer with heavy orange undertones,  be careful  to shake the bottle good, the shimmer settles BAD!!!  It is very pigmented though and covers completely in 2 coats, almost unheard of with neon.

I added some leopard spots on my accent nail with Color Club Worth the Risque, and Sinful Colors Black on Black.

I am super happy I didn't pass on this:) it is a great bright color and look fabulous as a pedicure color!!!  I also learned that my hubby is right, every now and then:)

That Leopard has PINK Spots!!!!

So by now you know that every week Jill @ Jilltastic has a weekly challenge. Well this week I was super lucky and got to choose the Challenge:) an well I ♥ leopard nails so it was a given:) I saw a mani on pinterest that I thought was super cute (you can see it here) so I figured this is perfect for the challenge!!! I taped my tips coated them with Sally Hansen " Hard to Get" your basic creamy white. I grabbed my medium dotting tool and China Glaze "Pink Voltage" and made approx 5 abstract dots on each nail.  I then grabbed my tiny dotting tool and Sinful Colors "Black on Black" and made semi circles and dots around each pink dot:)  Followed it all with a coat of SV and TA-DA!!!! So what do you guys think??? I ♥ it!!!! Def will be keeping this one for a few days!!!!
