Nails of the Week: Galaxy Nails :)

I've been really into nail art lately, and with a lot of time on my hands with my two weeks off, I decided to start experimenting! The first experiment that I'm sharing is my take on Galaxy Nails! If you know me, you know that I love space, Star Trek, the Air & Space museum, and basically everything else that has to do with the universe! So when I saw this trend on nails...I HAD to try it!

Take a look:

The Line Up of Polishes:

I used (in this order): Sally Hansen Double Duty Base & Top Coat (Base Coat), Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Nail Color in (28) Black Out (Black), Pure Ice in Celestial (I didn't know that was the name of the polish, but that is fitting!) (Blue), Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Nail Color in (220) Celeb City MIXED WITH Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Nail Color in (300) White On (Silver/Grey), ELF Nail Polish in Smokin' Hot (Red), Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Nail Color in (25) Grape Going (Purple), Spoiled by Wet n Wild Nail Color in Shaken Snow Globe (Sparkles), ELF Quick Dry Top Coat

What I love about this nail art is that you can't do it wrong and it's REALLY hard to mess up! The universe is a beautiful, complex thing, and now my nails are too! For some tips on what to do, watch this amazing video by Cute Polish! You can use whatever colors you have on hand! I just ordered a lot of nail stuff (polishes, embellishments, tools), so I would love to re-try this when I get some new stuff!

Nails of the Week: Matte & Sparkles

Hey Friends!

So I'm not a professional nail artist, but I like to get creative and try out new things with my nails. So bare with me if some polish is on my figures, or the lines are perfectly straight (I do most of the line free hand). Here's what I played with:

Base Coat: Sally Hansen's Double Duty, Base & Top Coat
Bottom: Sally Hansen's Hard As Nails Xtreme Wear Nail Color in (240) Twisted Pink, topped with Orly Matte Top
Top: Revlon's Top Speed Fast Dry Nail Enamel in (110) Pink Lingerie, topped with Sally Hansen's Diamond Strength No Chip Nail Color in (140) Aisle Be There.

Base Coat: Sally Hansen's Double Duty, Base & Top Coat
Accent Nail: Sally Hansen's Hard As Nails Xtreme Wear Nail Color in (130) Blue Me Away!, topped with Spoiled Nail Color in (S002) Shaken Snow Globe
Other Nails: Sally Hansen's Hard As Nails Xtreme Wear Nail Color in (280) Jazzy Jade, topped with Orly Matte Top
