Brit by Julep (suede)

Good evening everyone! For today's post I have a color that my boyfriends sister, Catrinel, bought me for Christmas! Brit- by Julep is a graphite silver suede that really goes on well. Two very pigmented coats and I was done. Because its a suede, the dry time is next to nothing. I actually haven't had the opportunity to play around with suede colors so I'm glad to say that I love them! I am curious to see how long they last for though, since there really isn't a way to put a top coat on top... I will blog that next time I try my other suede color Minka. Until next time!

Party Blue!!

There's not a lot I can say about this blue except its STUNNING!! The color is from China Glaze with the name Frostbite.  There was a fundraiser at my old hairdressing school for the students to go to New York. They were doing blow-dry's and manicures and my old aesthetics teacher saved this color for me. She knows me too well. I had a blast that night. I added all my nail art the following day myself. Very party-ish nails. The silver sparkles I used reminds me of shimmering diamonds.  These were all out glamour nails! 

what do you prefer for a party?

RED- horizontal stripes

Hello my dear readers! Well this time around I did a beautiful red base called Malaga Wine. This has been in my collection since the beginning. I just love the deepness of it! I was actually just going to go with the red nails and then I saw my old post (Triangle tips). It made me want to do something similar with my red nails. I went with horizontal half stripes on the side of my nails.  It doesn’t take too long to do these kinds of nails, but its just time consuming. And another thing I see with using tape… when I tend to tape up all my nails and then paint my nails, I get this tape residue when I remove it. So I guess I have to do this look nail by nail. I am still new to tape manicures, I used to everything free hand and it wasn’t always the straightest haha. Practice makes perfect! I drew up a little picture to show you how i placed the tape and where i painted! Have fun!!

Liquid Crystal by China Glaze

Liquid Crystal 

OMG! This is the color I have been waiting for! I've been trying to find something that I didnt have already and here it is! This is my IT color! haha. Liquid Crystal by China Glaze. I can see this being a hit color in the cold winter, sparkling in the sunlight on a cold day. I usually go dark in the winter or very light and sparkly. Its a very festive color so guess what ill be wearing around the holidays! 

A Bolt of Lightning

 This was my first attempt to do a lightning bolt! I think that I did a pretty good job doing one as well. There will be more of these to come!
