Update

Hey guys,

So sorry I haven't posted in almost a month!  My work schedule is a little redic right now and my kiddo has just gone back to school so I have been super busy.  I am hoping to get a few posts up early next week, one being the fan brush watercolor tutorial.  But for now I can post a couple phone pics I have taken of some recent mani's.  Sorry the quality is not awesome on these, I really wish I had taken the time to get proper pics of them!


First up is a mani I got from this tutorial by MrCandiipants on YouTube.  I used Maybelline Canary Cool as my base, my watercolor colors are Essie Tart Deco, Finger Paints Lemon Sour, Sinful Colors Orange Cream, Orly Terracotta and my orange pastel neon franken, and the dots are also Canary Cool




Second is Wet N Wild I Need a Refresh-mint (new version I will do a comp soon) and Revlon Whimsical, this is pretty similar to several mani's I have done before but I am a sucker for Whimsical over pastel mints and blues!

A Few Random Mani's

Hey guys,

So a have several mani's that I never got around to posting or that I didn't really like how they photographed,  looked etc.  I decided I would do a little spam post for you all with them.  I hope you enjoy!








Watercolor nails with a glitter cross accent, I hated how this one photographed the colors were not showing up well at all





Oklahoma Love mani, I used Gumdrop as the base and acrylic paint for the Oklahoma outline and the heart





Tribal mani, trying to do something inspired by Mr. Candiipants but I totally did not fill in that middle finger very well at all and I didn't see it till I took pics. I used Sinful Colors Bikini and a black striper polish


China Glaze Keep Calm and Paint On with little gems as and accent





Orly Royal Navy, this one is impossible for me to photograph good, it always shows visible nail line and in real life it was not noticeable at all






Orly Rage and Cotton Candy tape mani, I just wasn't sure how much I liked this one, I do love the color combo though







Salon Perfect Shocked over Sinful Colors Bikini, I kept forgetting to post this one and it also is not photographing very color accurate it is a lighter pink

31 Day Challenge, Day 25 Inspired by Fashion

I was actually inspired by the nails at the Lucian Matis Spring 2012 fashion show.  They did these watercolor nails and I this is where I found the tutorial and pics for this on BeautyGeeks it is pretty easy to do and the video is a great tutorial for them.

I used Revlon Top Speed Cloud for my base and the "watercolors" are Finger Paints Scarlet's Paint, China Glaze Fuchsia Fanatic, and Ulta Blue Streak.
