Penguin Nails


 Hey everyone! December has begun and that means festive nail designs in preparation for the holidays. To start it off I have a penguin nail design for you guys!

The colors I used for this design were Sally Hansen’s Xtreme Wear shades in “Black Out” (#28) and “White On” (#300) and Sally Hansen’s Triple Shine shade in “Play Koi” (#240). You will also need a dotting tool for this design. 

I started off with a black base on all my nails. Then, using the white polish, I covered 2/3rds of my nail, rounding off the top; this represents the white penguin body. Finally, I used the dotting tool to make black eyes and an orange beak. I also added orange feet by the tips of my nails for an extra touch. Finish it off with a top coat (tip: wait till the polish is fully dry even though I am impatient and never do and it smears) to protect the design. 

Hope you liked my penguin nails! The link I got my inspiration from will be below. I have 7 more holiday designs to go, so I’ll see you on soon! BYYEEE

Firework Nails

Hello everyone! If you live in America then tomorrow is an exciting day for you, full of celebration. With that celebration comes amazing fireworks. So, without further a do here are my Independence Day firework nails. The polishes I used were Sally Hansen's "Co-balt Blue" (#320), "Red My Lips" (#470), "Silver Sweep" (#230), and "Grape Shifter" (#423), NYC's "French White Tip" (#134), and Blackheart Beauty's "Deep Sky Blue". I also used a nail dotter to create the fireworks. I started by painting the base colors on my nails, alternating the colors on each finger, and letting that dry. I chose to do my fireworks on the navy blue nails, but you can do them on the red or even on all the nails if you choose. For the fireworks I started with a dot for the center of the firework and added a red star there. Remember, the center of the firework does not have to be in the center of the nail (I only did that on one nai...

Miracle Gel Swatches

Hey guys! I know this post is late, but now that school has started back up all I ever do is homework. It's ridiculous I don't do anything anymore (not that I ever did lol). Anyway enough excuses. I did these swatches forever ago, like October of last year, so my memory of these colors are a distant memory. However, I didn't have a post planned so I thought I would show you these. The deep red color is "Wine Stock" (#480). I really like this color and it would be a great holiday nail color. However, because I love red nail polish, especially deep red, I will wear this whenever I want. As every other Miracle Gel polish I own, this is a great polish. I believe this was only one coat as well which is super cool. The other color is "All Chalked Up" (#230) and it is a pastel purple color. This color is very light-hearted and cute looking which I appreciate when it is dreary outside and I get sad. This is also a great Easter color (apparently I l...
