Neutral Nails – Triangle French Tips


Hey dudes. I decided I wanted to do something simple with my nails for the week, but I also wanted to do something different. I have never done a different shape for French tips and I have a bunch of nail stickers, so why not use them. I believe the brand of nail stickers I used is kiss. I don’t really remember though and I don’t have the outside packaging anymore.

The polishes I used were Revlon’s Base + Top Coat, Sally Hansen’s Diamond Strength polish in “Ballet Bare” (#3227) and Insta-Dri polish “Sand Storm” (#113).

To start I used the diamond strength polish as a base on my nail. It originally came with a French manicure set, so it is perfect for these designs. Only adding one coat makes it very subtle and natural looking which is perfect. However, you can see that my nails are stained from years of nail painting; just ignore that. Next, I used the nail stickers to create the French tip. Depending on where you place the sticker changes the width blah blah you know the drill. “Sand Storm” is a really nice tan polish, so that it the one I chose to use, but you can use whatever color you like. I also see a lot of people use two colors which is also cool. Do that and tweet me pictures. Wait ten seconds after applying the polish before taking the sticker off. I wouldn’t wait for the polish to dry completely because sometimes the sticker will take the polish with it and I don’t trust them. Add a top coat and you are done.

I hope you like this simple design. Let me know if you have anything in particular you want me to do. I just thought of something that I might do next... we'll see. See you soon :)

Miracle Gel “Greyfitti” Review

  Hello everyone! Today I have a review for one of my newer polishes by Sally Hansen called “Greyfitti” (#260). So, keep reading to see what I think!  The first thing I have to say is that this polish took 3 coats to get this opacity. That was a little bit annoying, but it didn’t take too long to dry and this color is very pretty. I guess if you needed a really transparent grey color for any type of nail design that this polish could be considered multifunctional.  Also, this color reminds me of Candie’s “Concrete Jungle”, which I’ve done reviews on before, except it's a bit of a lighter shade of grey. I may like Candie’s a bit better… no offense to Sally Hansen lol. This polish is great and you know that I love Sally Hansen products, but I prefer the other one a bit more. Overall, I’d say that this polish deserves 4 out of 5 stars. I like the color and it dries quickly. So far it has lasted with no chips (even though I haven’t had it on for that long so I’...

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 ...

Suncoat Natural Nail Polish Remover First Impression

Hello everyone! Today I have a review for Suncoat’s Natural Nail Polish Remover. My mom recently purchased this online at Amazon, which at the moment is $5.68 for 60ml. It is a corn and soya based nail polish remover with only 4 ingredients, which is significantly healthier than regular polish remover. It comes in either a 30ml or 60ml glass bottle (1oz or 2oz) which is better than plastic because the chemicals in plastic bottles will soak into the remover as well, and that’s bad for you. The directions say to put it on your nails with a Q tip or cotton ball, let soak, and rub off until the polish is removed; basically, it works just like normal removers. I had my mom test it on the 4 th of July nail design and the new glitter polish I got (I test my designs on her first ok) and she gave me a review. She said that it was very very oily, but it is oil so that’s what you’d expect. It took longer to remove than what it would for normal polish remover, but it worked just as well....
