Pumpkin Nails

Hey everyone! My third Halloween nail design (inspired from Pinterest) is pumpkin nails! There may be a lot of polishes involved, but it’s actually pretty easy. It doesn't have to be just a Halloween design; you can use it for the whole fall season.

The colors I used were Sally Hansen’s Insta-Dri in shades “Sand Storm” (#113) and “Lickety-Split Lime” (#29), Triple Shine shades in “Taheati” (#620) and “Play Koi” (#240), and Essie’s “Mink Muffs” (#624).

I started with a tan, neutral base on all my nails. Then I used my lighter shade of orange to make a semi-circle by the tips of my nails and filled it in. I used my dark brown to make a short, thick line on the top of the semi-circle for the pumpkin stem and added a green line next to the stem for the vine. Finally, I used the darker orange to make the indentations on the pumpkin and to create depth. Add a top coat to seal it in and you've got pumpkin nails!

Thanks for reading my post. I have one Halloween tutorial left for October, so make sure you come back next Sunday! BYYEEE

L.A. Colors Color Last - First Impressions

Hey everybody! So I was walking around my local Walmart about 2 weeks ago and I came across a new display of nail polish for L.A. Colors Color Last nail polish. The polishes went for 2 dollars (I think anyway they were pretty cheap) and they claimed to last up to 10 days with the top coat. I decided I’d test that out because why not buy more nail polish that will inevitably dry out and be wasted, whatever. So that is what this blog post is for; I’ll be giving you my first impressions of both the actual polish and the top coat itself.  The color I chose is called “Friendship” and it’s a neutral purple color with slight pink tones. It also has this weird glitter that you can only see when it’s wet or if you have eagle eyes. Anyway, it is a nice color (I used 2 coats) but I had a few problems with application. This particular polish did NOT go on smoothly at all and it looked really rough on its own. I contemplated testing the polish without the top coat on one hand for a bett

Hello 2017

2016 has finally ended ( finally ) and now it's time for a fresh start. I've been looking at old photos and trying to remember all of the good stuff that has happened in the pile of garbage that was the past year. I posted a whole sappy caption on my personal Instagram ( x ) and then I started thinking... What are my plans for this year? I haven't thought about it at all; I didn't even think 2016 was ever going to be over. However, I think I have some goals. First I want to look at my 2016 Best Nine from my nail Instagram ( x ) Apparently I only posted 19 photos this year yikes. Sorry that that happened I kind of feel bad about it. I really love my blog and I want to do A LOT more with it. I'll talk about that in a second though because next I want to restate my goals for 2016 that I wrote. Goals for 2016 1.       Study: I slacked off this first semester with my school work and I think I could have done better. I really want to try this semester and next
