Christmas Tree Nails

Hello everyone! The 3^rd nail design of the month is Christmas trees! This is my favorite so far. Here’s what you’ll need.

The colors I used were Sally Hansen’s Insta-Dri shades in “Jade Jump” (#450) and “Jet Set Jade” (#180), Essie “Good as Gold” (#941), and Wet n Wild “Sparked” (#435G). You’ll also need some painter’s tape and a nail dotter.

I started with a light green base. Then I used two strips of tape to make a triangle going halfway up my nail. I used dark green for the tree and waited ten seconds before removing the tape (that's important ok). For the star, I used a dotter; you can just make dots and connect them. Finally, I used pink glitter for the ornaments/lights on the tree. Protect your design with a top coat!

I hope you like this design! I got my inspiration from Pinterest (of course). I still have 5 designs left for December, so make sure you come back. 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
