Cupcake Accent Nail

Hello everyone! This week I decided to do another Pinterest inspired look that would be fun and celebratory. I decided that cupcakes were perfect for a birthday celebration and basically any other celebration that may be happening. The colors I used for this design were Sally Hansen's Insta-Dri in "Pink Blink" (#205), "Rapid Red" (#280), Xtreme Wear "White On" (#300), and Triple Shine "Twinkled Pink" (#310). For the cupcake, I painted a pink base color. Next, I drew a thin red line with a nail art brush about 1/3 down my nail and added vertical stripes with red and white. I added white "icing" and a red dot on top. To make it even cuter I added a glittery pink color over top with extra white dots for sprinkles. For the remaining nails I just used a pink base and added red and white dots, slightly overlapping. Don't forget the top coat! I hope you like this design! Get ready for 4 amazing Halloween nail tutorials i

Miracle Gel "Game of Chromes" Review

Hello everyone! I recently purchased another nail polish from Sally Hansen’s Miracle Gel collection called “Game of Chromes” (#510) and I thought I’d write a review for it today. Frist of all, the name is genius. Secondly, lol, the color is gorgeous. It is really shiny and when you move your fingers under the light it kind of looks like it switches between silver and gold, like a hologram or something. It is just a really nice color if you are looking for a solid nail design that isn't super boring. I also really liked the formula of the polish. It went on very smoothly (just like the others from the line did) and it was opaque with one coat. When I used the top coat (which you have to buy separately unless you get a kit and it’s expensive but whatever), it lasted a long time with no chips. It still isn’t chipped and I could keep it on, but I redo my nails every week lol. That is all for today, but you can check out my most recent YouTube video here, or look through

School Spirit!

Hey everyone! This week I felt school spirited, with the football games, pep rallies, and clubs starting, and I thought U would do some nails inspired by my school. The colors I used for this design were Sally Hansen's Insta-Dri in the shade "Winded Up" (#350) and Candie's "Concrete Jungle" (#2191). My school colors are maroon and gray, so I thought this would be the perfect excuse to use the color "Wined Up" before Christmas lol. Our mascot is a cougar, so I put a cougar paw as my accent nail. I felt proud of my nails lol. I want to say something about the polish "Wined Up" very quickly though. The color is absoluteley lovely, but the polish chips like crazy. I had to touch up my nails several times throughout the week (even on the first day!) and the top half of one nail completely chipped off! I didn't use a clear coat but I didn't think it'd be necessary. I was quite upset. Anyway, that's all for t

Accent Nail/”Flashy Fuchsia” Review

Hey everyone! This week I did another accent nail because I’m very busy. I actually like this accent nail more than the first lol. The colors I used for this week were Sally Hansen’s Insta-Dri in the color “Flashy Fuchsia” (#220), Essie “Licorice” (#720), and Wet n Wild “Sparked” (#435G).  All I did for this design was paint my nails with the color “Flashy Fuchsia” and then on my ring finger nail I made diagonal lines with a nail art brush. I started with 3 lines in black and then 3 glitter lines right next to those, a little bit overlapping actually. I want to give a quick review on the color “Flashy Fuchsia” since this isn’t really much of a tutorial (I think most are self-explanatory). I’ve always loved this color; it’s like a hot pink with a little shine in it. It is great like most of the other colors in the Insta-Dri collection. Since the color really pops it’s more of a spring and summer color, which means I'll have to wait a while to use it again lol. Wel

Cato's Fall Clothes Haul

Hey everyone! So if you didn't know Cato’s is my favorite clothes store. I shop there at least once a month because I’ve become so obsessed with their clothes. I've legit worn an outfit that’s been completely from Cato’s: the shirt, tank, pants, shoes, jewelry… everything lol. Anyway, I went shopping for some fall clothes because I just can’t wait anymore, so I thought I’d show you what I got. First off, I got this button up shirt. It’s a blue-ish gray and it just looks simple yet cute. I have a thing for button up shirts; I have a bunch of them lol. This shirt was $19.99. I also got a gray zip up jacket that has lace cut outs on the sides and cool rope strings. It’s light but still keeps me warm in the Antarctic… I mean school… same thing really. I always wore my same jacket, everyday, at school and I thought it was time for a new one. This was $19.99. Next I got some “skinny” jeans (I wouldn’t say they are that skinny but whatever lol) that are army green a
