A Colorful Watercolored Leopard

Hey guys, I have a bit of nail art for you today! My second freehand leopard print mani!

I started out with a plain white base, using Milani White on the Spot.

Then using the watercolor mani technique (or trying to lol out of practice!) I added the colors below.

Illamasqua -Force, Gamma, Nomad, Poke, Rare, Serenity.
China Glaze - Flip Flop Fantasy & Shocking Pink.

I also used a darker pink but I cannot for the life of me remember which!

I added the Leopard print with a small dotting tool, Nails Inc Baker Street & Milani Black Swift.

Hope you guys like it! Sorry about my dry hands!

Pure Ice Diamond Couture Glitters - Swatches & Review!

Hey guys! Super excited to show you these polishes today :D
I have five polishes from the Pure Ice Diamond Couture Collection!

Sea-Quin, Hot-Rocks, Party of Five, Tinsel Town, & Material Girl.


Sea-Quin
Chartreuse micro glitter with holographic diamond shard glitters in a clear base.

I layered one coat of Sea-Quin over Illamasqua Smash.
(Smash is a bit smudged, I didn't wait long enough before I applied topcoat but it wasn't due to Sea-Quin)

Hot-Rocks
Scattered silver shimmer with small silver hex glitters, Black micro glitters & silver holographic diamond shard glitters in a clear base.

I layered a single coat of Hot-Rocks over Nails Inc Baker Street.
This is probably my favorite polish of these five! I can never have too many black glitter polishes!

Party of Five
Teal micro glitter, hex, shimmer, & teal holographic diamond shard glitters in a clear base.

For Party of Five I used two coats instead of one, over Opi Kiss me on my Tulips.

Tinsel TownBright blue micro glitter, and micro hex with blue holographic diamond shard glitters in a clear base.

Tinsel Town was the thickest of the bunch, a little goopy but applied fairly easily.
I layered this over Illamasqua Prosperity. Am I awesome for what? Look at this combo!
I have a little A England Avalon on my middle, and ring fingers on the lips sponged on.
I think Prosperity is colored a bit off but it was a hard polish for me to capture!

Material Girl
Soft pink micro hex glitter & shimmer with pink holographic diamonds in a clear base.
I layered a coat of Material Girl over (a single coat!) of A England St. George.
I really like this combination..it's a little different but goes well I think!
_____________________________________________________

All with the exception of Tinsel Town being on the goopy side, these all has perfect formulas.
The micro glitter covers evenly very easy, but such as most polishes you may need to fish for the larger shard glitters if you wish to have more on your nails. I did 0% fishing for glitters so this is how it came out by applying it normally.

You can purchase Pure Ice Polishes from their website and Walmart Stores for $1.99 each.

Keep up  with their brand on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

I highly recommend their polishes! I mean $1.99? What the heck wouldn't you buy them!!
They are affordable and higher quality than a lot of brands that cost triple the price.

Here is a recap picture! Which of these do you have your eye on? Let me know!

String mani with Nails Inc Sugar House Lane!

As promised, here is Nails Inc Sugar House Lane with colors!

I *attepted* the string mani again (I didn't post the first try, sorry!)

Mostly it globbed, I was impatient! But I still like it!

Sorry about the half arse cleanup!

My ring finger is tinged green and my middle finger is pink around the nail D:

I used Illamasqua-Radium, China Glaze-Flip Flop Fantasy, and Kleancolor-Neon Purple!

And 2 coats of Seche Vite!

 

Hope you guys like it! I like the color combo a lot!

I hope you all have a terrific Thursday!

What is on your nails right now? Any weekend plans? I'd love to know!

*Oops I forgot to mention, photos with SV bottle are with topcoat, Nails Inc Bottles are without*

Nails Inc Sugar House Lane!

Hey guys! Late post I know.. or early? Depending where you are! :)
(No store near me) for $9.50. I love this so much! I want all four of the Sprinkle polishes!

I used three coats, only two were needed but I added a coat since I had it on for a bit :)
It's a tiny bit bumpy so I'd recommend two coats of topcoat.

Come back tomorrow to see some pretty colors over this! ;)

What does Holo + Magnetic Polish = ?? :)

Hey guys! A friend of mine had a awesome Idea and I had to try it asap!
She wanted to see a holo Magnetic polish! So I was like "I'll try it!!" And broke out the spectraflair!
As awesome as this looks, I completely think a holo topcoat would do the effect as well,
but since China Glaze just came out with Magnetics I figured I wouldn't mind wasting some so I mixed  a bit of my Nails Inc-Trafalgar Square in a mini polish bottle with some spectraflair :)

Kristin from http://manicuredmonkey.blogspot.com/ will also be trying this too but with a holo topcoat so go check that out on her blog today!!

[Some photos taken in natural daylight, others with flash!] :)

I hope you all enjoyed this post! And have a wonderful day!!
