OPI Glitter Gradient

Hey Dolls!

I recently found @lalalovenailart on Instagram and fell in love with all her gorgeous glitter gradients.  It's been a while since I did a glitter gradient and her stunning feed inspired me to do one again!  

I used OPI Infinite Shine, You're Blushing Again and NOPI Shaved Nice. I used the OPI Muppets World Tour for my pic but really the only difference between those two polishes is Shaved Nice has green hex glitter and MWT has blue.  I topped it off with two thick coats of my fave topcoat, NYC Grande Central Station for a smooth finish.

Hope you all have a lovely Tuesday!

Alex By The Books by Nicole by OPI

Hey Dolls!

How are you all?  It's been a while since I've posted, I've been quite sick.  I ended up with food poisoning/stomach flu over a week ago and am only just starting to feel better.  Not fun!

I've got a quick swatch of Alex By The Books by Nicole by OPI to show you today.  This is such a lovely mint green.  Formula was fantastic, two easy coats for perfect opacity.

Easter Skittle Mani

Hey Dolls

How are you all?  We are on Spring Break and I am so happy to have my girlies home with me!

I've got an Easter-colour inspired skittle mani to share with you today.  

On my pinky and pointer fingers I am wearing Joe Fresh Buttercup.  My middle finger is NOPI Alex By The Books and my ring finger is OPI Muppets World Tour.

 Have a great day Luvies!

NOPI Am I Making Myself Claire?

Hey Dolls!

I picked up a couple NOPI polishes on sale the other day for $2.50 each.  Couldn't pass that up!  I chose two polishes from the Modern Family Collection, Am I Making Myself Claire? and Alex By The Books.

Am I Making Myself Claire? is a lovely dusty purple cream.  I can't pass up colors like this!  Formula was fantastic, I could've gotten away with one coat, but you know me, I always use two!

Valentine's Day Mani

Hiya Dolls

 

We are celebrating Valentines Day for Twinsie Tuesday this week.  I love Valentines Day!  I love spending it with my hubs, but my favorite part is making it special for my daughters.  I always make them a special breakfast and have a few gifts and treats ready for them throughout the day.

 

 

On my index finger I am wearing Finger Paints Pink Imagination with some gold studs from Claire's.  My middle finger is Joe Fresh Champagne.  My ring and pinky fingers are Nicole by OPI Color Me Country.  I added NYC Top Of The Gold Topcoat to my ring finger and a cute little heart using Joe Champagne and a dotting tool.

Nude and Flourescent Gradient

Hi Dolls

 

Happy Monday, hope everyone had a great weekend.  We had girly sleepovers, swim dates, and lots of nail painting this weekend.  Couldn't ask for much better than that!

 

The mani I'm sharing with you today, just might be my all-time most favorite one!  Eva!  I have wanted to try this look ever since I saw @lafemmelulu on Instagram do one similar.

 

 

The polishes I used are Essie Better Together which is a lovely squishy pink jelly and Color Club East Austin.  I dabbed on a little Nicole by OPI Carrie'd Away on the tips.  So easy and such a fun look!

I dabbed on some chunkier glitter afterwards, but didn't end up liking the colors together.  Next time I'm going to use a purple polish and try a nice chunky glitter with it.

 





Twinsie Tuesday, Color Block Mani

Welcome to Twinsie Tuesday!

 

We are all showing you and Color Block mani today, and I'd love to know who came up with this idea!  JK.  Not really.

 

Here is my less than spectacular attempt.  I should have googled some ideas first. 

 

My pointer finger reminds me of Braveheart.

 

 

The lovely shimmery pink is Kim-pletely In Love.  Swatch of that coming soon, so stay tuned.  And the blue is Revlon Dreamer.  They are two lovely colors that I ruined by putting together.  Swatches on their own will make you love them, I promise!
