Luau Nail Art

Hey hey

My sister, Jennifer, had a luau themed party to go to at her church this week so she asked me if I could do some nail art to match. This is what I came up with (these are her hands)

For this manicure I used: OPI - Charged Up Cherry, China Glaze - Happy Go Lucky, and Pretty Women - Orange and Green.

OPI - Charged Up Cherry is a great summer pink. It goes on super smoothly and it was almost opaque after one coat! The picture mutes the color a little bit though. :( It is so much vibrant.

I did this free hand, using a very thin brush I bought at Michael's.

Lady Bugs!

Hey there!

Before I start I wanted to send a big thanks to Mercedes over at Nails & Nonsense. She replicated my Memorial Day nail art and she did a fantastic job! So thanks Mercedes! Maybe she would be willing to try this one next:

Lady Bugs! I got this idea from a cute little stuffed lady bug I have in my room. So for this manicure I used:

Pinky (which I know is upside down, hence the right-side-up picture below) - OPI - No Room For The Blues, Who The Shrek Are You. Color Club - Reddy Or Not. Orly - Liquid Vinyl.

Ring - Milani - Ruby Jewels. Orly - Liquid Vinyl, White Tips.

Middle - OPI - No Room For The Blues. Color Club - Reddy Or Not. Orly - Liquid Vinyl

Pointer - Orly - White Tips, Liquid Vinyl. China Glaze - Happy Go Lucky, Goin' My Way Color Club - Reddy Or Not

Thumb (which spell out LADY BUGS encase you didn't notice) - OPI - Who The Shrek Are You, Don't Mess With OPI.

I had a lot of fun with this manicure and it was not as hard as I thought it was going to be. Feel free to ask if you have any questions about how I did anything!

First Post! Let's Go For a Holographic!

Hello Everybody!

For my very first post I am bringing you...China Glaze Hyper Haute from the Tronica Collection!

Artificial Light

Natural Light

Hyper Haute is a deep pink with a purple tone to it. It goes on very smoothly, it was almost opaque after one coat, with only a few minor bald spots. The brush is thin but flexible, so it was easy to spread the polish out over a large area of the nail. The halo effect of this polish is subtle, yet there. However, it is difficult to capture it on camera.

I have no dupes in my personal collection

Hyper Haute is part of the Tronica Collection along with:

Techno Teal

Virtual Violet

Electra Magenta

Gamer Glam

High Def (which I own)

Hologram
