I saw a similar manicure on another nail blog, and I thought the 'accent nail' looked really cool, so I decided to try it out.



I used two coats of the unnamed Rimmel London purple, and two coats of a grey somewhat glittery franken I have had for a bit of time. Over top I used Sally Hansen's 'diamonds'. Black and purple seems to be a recurring theme here. I don't know why. I just like them together.

Well, until next time, later days!

Flowers and Bunnies

I've been getting behind on photos and posting. Not that there's anyone reading, LOL. This is from this past Sunday.



I wanted to keep it light and delicate looking, so I used one coat of Wet 'n Wild 'break the ice' and used an unnamed Rimmel for the lovely purple flowers. Called it a day at that.

Due to a couple of my nails being super thin at the tips and peeling, I forced myself to cut them off and start anew. This is the aftermath.



I used two coats of Petites 'black diamond' and a bunny and cross bones decal. 'Black diamond' is fantastic. It has the look of Milani's 3D holographic polishes. Really fantastic. Petites brad can be bought at Rite Aid and Wal-Mart (I think).

Well, until next time, later days!

Batty

I have done my nails several times since the last post, but alas, they all got chipped while at work, so no photos of those.

Today I decided to go back to one of my staples, black nail polish. I'm not going to lie, most of my clothes are black, so it goes with everything.



I used two coats of Rimmel London's 'black satin', Konad plate c04 with an uncheap (gasp!) polish from OPI's line for Sephora called 'queen of everything'. I like the way 'queen of everything' stamped. Probably the best non-special polish I've used.

Well, until next time, later days!

More 3D Holographic

While out last week, I once again found myself in front of the Milani display at CVS. They were fully stocked, but I decided to only pick up one more 3D holographic.



I used two coats of Wet 'n Wild 'french white creme' and two coats of Milani 'HD'. It's a fantastic silver, but I thought it looked strange on its own, so I used Rimmel London's 'black satin' and Konad Coraline plates c01-c05.

Until next time, later days!

Pink and Purple Gems

Yesterday, I found some awesome nail gems in the dollar section at Target, so naturally, I had to try them out.



I used three coats of Rimmel London's 'posh pink' and added the gems to the middle while the polish was tacky. Once it was all dried, I put two coats of seche vite over top of the gemmed nail, and just one on the others. Rimmel London's nail polish brushes are amazing. They're large, flat, and so much easier to put on. I certainly will be buying more from them.

Until next time, later days.
