Lightning Bolt Nails

Hello :)

I've been working on fixing my nail station :) I finally got around to doing my nails. I went for something simple and cute that involved tape (because I got so much tape for free from target) lol. I love tape mani's and I wish I had to patience to cut all the little strips. So here's my attempt at the lightning bolt mani.


So here's what I used:
Julep Claire (Blue)
Finger Paints Key to my Art (Gold)
Finger Paints Black Expressionism

Also, I'm so excited, For a while I've heard a lot of nail bloggers talk about the Helmer from Ikea, and I finally got one. I love it!! It fits perfect under my desk and fits all my polishes (and I have room to spare) I thought for sure the taller polishes weren't going to fit, but they did. Also at Ikea they sell these plastic drawer divider, (I only bought 2, I feel like a dummy) which I find helpful for because I don't have a lot of the same polish (brand) and I wanted to organize by brand not color. I need to go buy more, I really like it this way, and at $3 a divider. I looked online, and I found this. Its cute and totally true.

Well until next time,
XOXO,

Blue Glitter Leopard Mani

I was feeling lazy today but I needed something new to look at. The previous mani lost its cherries, lol. I was doing some gardening today but not only that I was making art :D I found some awesome Moss Art pictures last year and decided it was time to try it out myself. Maybe I'll post the pic of my supposed mossy art project :D

Ok ok, enough about gardening and moss. Nail time. So like I said, I did a lazy mani, nothing flashy or too creative. I knew I wanted glitter and lots of it, and as always I can not get enough leopard print :D


It came out pretty ok, But I think I still prefer the freehand method :D Oh and also ignore my thumb nail, I totally nailed that one lol.

Ok, I already put away the polishes I used so from memory:
I used 2 different nail polishes as the base Sally Hansen HD Spectrum and Finger Paints Laugh My Art Off
The Black is Finger Paints Black Expressionism 
and a new Topcoat I'm trying Orly Polishield 3-in-1

Ok, Now for my moss art :)

Hopefully in a few weeks it'll be a big lush green moss masterpiece :) We'll see. The first time I tried this the rain washed it away, but this time I got smarter. I bought water retention gel pellets, that should help :D But like I said. We'll see.
