Easter Nails

Happy Easter everyone!
If you don't celebrate Easter, then happy Sunday! Lots of colors and a franken are coming your way! The base colors I used from left to right are OPI Play in the Peonies, Zoya Catlin, OPI Time-less is More, China Glaze Light as Air, and Sally Hansen  Diamond Strength Diamonds

The colors are in reverse order on my nails and Diamonds was used as a top coat on top of them just to give a similar finish to all of them. I love adding Diamonds on top of colors just to add a little shimmer on top especially if the colors don't have any shimmer in them.

Next comes the polka dots! The colors I used for the polka dots from left to right are China Glaze White on White, Sephora by OPI Blue Grotto, my own glitter franken, and OPI Purple with a Purpose.

My glitter franken was just a bunch of little Bon-Bon polishes mixed together in an empty bottle. It didn't quite turn out how I had hoped it would but I still like how it turned out. Here are on some close ups of it in the bottle and on my nail. 

I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend and are ready for the week ahead!

Water Marble Semi-fail

Hi bloggers! 


So as promised, here is a recent water marble I did tonight. It didn't turn out as I was hoping but I still like it. I've only done a few water marbles before so I'm still learning! The two mistakes I made with this water marble is I should have used a different base color and I should have put more drops in my water to make more rings of the different colors. Things to keep in mind for next time.


Anyway, I used three different colors: Wet n Wild Fastdry in Waves of Enchantment, China Glaze in Coral Star, and Sally Hansen Diamond Strength in Fuchsia Bling Bling. 

 

I used Waves of Enchantment as a base color, LOVE IT! So pretty and shimmery pinkish coral, perfect for the summer. 

 

And here are my two favorite nails before the edges were cleaned up. 

 

Like I said, it didn't turn out awful but it didn't turn out how I was hoping but it's all a learning process. 

If you are wondering how you water marble, type it into youtube and watch a few videos on it. That's how I learned.

Hope you enjoyed!
