piCture pOlish Blogfest 2013!

Hey guys! It's that time of year again - piCture pOlish Blogfest!!
This year everybody will be doing nail art with the shades provided,
I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with!!

Here is the nail art look I came up with! But before I get into how I made this look,
and my very first video tutorial attempt These are the three shades I used!


Heavy Metal  - Two coats.

Honey Dew - Three thin coats.

Hot Lips - Three very thin coats over White.
_______________________________________________________

Here is my tutorial, my very first one so yeah it's super far from perfect!
There is also a pictorial thing below int his post!



Here is everything I used!

• Step 1 -
  Start with nail strengthener and base coat. I used Nailtek II and Orly Bonder.
  Then apply your base colors. I used Honey Dew on my ring & thumb nails.
  I applied a white base to my pointer, Hot Lips on my middle nail, and Heavy Metal on my pinky nail.
• Step 2 -  
  Frame your pinky nail using Hot Lips and a small nail art brush.
  Draw a X shape on your ring nail using Hot Lips, then fill in the sides.
  Draw a triangle on your middle nail using Honey Dew.
• Step 3 -
  Reapply Hot Lips to your "framed" pinky nail and the sides of the X on your ring nail for opacity.
  Using a small nail art brush and Heavy Metal, fill in the triangle areas on your middle & ring nails.
• Step 4 - 
  Apply Honey Dew and Hot Lips to a wedge makeup sponge and apply to your white pointer nail.
  Repeat this process 3-5 times until your desired look is acquired!
• Step 5 -
  Using top coat and a wax pencil (or whatever you use to pick up studs and rhinestones)
  pick up the studs one at a time and apply to your pinky and ring finger nails.
  I used a 2mm circle neon pink stud on my pinky nail and a 2mm black square stud on my ring nail.
• Step 6 - 
  Use a small clean portion of the same wedge sponge you used above and dab Heavy Metal
  onto your thumb nail. Once dry apply topcoat to all of your nails and you are good to go!

piCture pOlish Blog Fest 2012! Orbit & Demeter! Updated with Gradient!

Hey guys! Guess what today is??

It's piCture pOlish's Blog Fest!! They are launching 11 brand new shades!!

There are about 80 bloggers world wide participating in Blog Fest 2012 so keep an eye out!

 Starting off with Demeter!
This polish is so beautiful, I think this one is my favorite of the two.
 I don't have that many browns that I love but this is now my favorite! And super unique.
Demeter was created with Katie from http://www.harlowandco.org/!

I used three thin coats of Demeter in these pictures! It's a little sheer but goes on perfectly.

Macro Wonderful-ness!

Orbit is awesome, the formula is a little thicker than Demeter but applies very easy.
Seriously SO close to being a one coater, I mean you probably could do one.. but I like thinner coats
Use 2 coats of topcoat.
Orbit is from the Mesh line.

(These were taken in the shade in the window of my sisters house, The polish is SO shiny, it looks duo-chromey but I believe that is just the reflection of her red back porch. I'm not 100% though because it seems to show in the matte photo aswell? But I wanted to be sure and tell you guys and let you decide!)

Orbit Mattified!

This baby was just begging me to be matte! So I gladly obliged :)
I used Essie-Matte about you on top of Orbit.

And I did a Gradient on top of Demeter today with Orbit!
Not the best, my daughter was hovering really badly and trying to help haha.

Both of these polishes are so amazing and gorgeous! I highly recommend both!
