Pink Galaxies!

Hi y'all! I have another nail art look for you all today! I wanted to do some cute galaxy nails, but I wanted something a little different than the standard galaxy (It's almost spring. I need color and not black!). I've done galaxy nails a few times before. I've even done a blue/teal themed galaxy. I really love galaxy nails! They're so easy and simple to do, but look so much more detailed than they are. 

Anyways, for this look I used all Wet N Wild. The base color is Tickled Pink and the colors I used to sponge on the galaxy are Frosted Fuchsia, Chambray Showers, and Who Is Ultra Violet? I really loved the look of this! I used Sally Hansen Goldie-flecks for the glitter topper on it. I used the darker pink to make leopard spots on the ring fingers, all other colors (black and white) are acrylic paints! 

Hope you all enjoyed these! Let me know what you thought in the comments below!

Queen + Adam Lambert inspired Mani!

 Hi y'all! I have some more nail art for you all today! This is inspired by the Queen + Adam Lambert tour! I was really sad I didn't get to go to the date in my city because of lack of funds for it when they were here last month, but I was inspired by Adam's tour wardrobe to do some nail art, not to mention his tweet about the color scheme of sorts for the tour. 

Adam is one of my favorite people everr. I love his music, and his voice is so so so amazing, he's literally makes anything sound good. And it's such and amazing and perfect fit for Queens music. It's so crazy how that worked out! Anyways, click through the jump to see more and plus some pics of the inspiration behind them! 

Neon leopard and zebra print!

 Hi y'all! Hope I didn't blind anyone with this Mani! Lol. They're so bright! I went with some simple leopard nail art with a zebra accent nail for today's look. Animal print of anything is sort of my go to look when I'm feeling stuck with coming up with anything, and these bright colors are just so summery I had to do something with them together. I think I blinded my mom with them though, she was kind of amazed at how bright they were. Though.. she did pick out the colors cause she bought them for me a few days ago. lol. So I'll blame it on her.

Skittle nails!

Animal print and hearts for Valentines Day

 Hi y'all! Today I have some fun Valentine's nail art to share with you! There may be a few more of these if I think of anything else to do.

Let It Snow Winter Challenge; Snow Leopard

Hi y'all! I have some leopard print nail art for you all today for the Let It Snow Winter Challenge. The theme was snow leopard, but I just couldn't do just the same exact thing on all of my nails because it would drive me nuts. Plus there's only so much you can do with snow leopard so I thought it would make them a little different than the rest as well. 

 I started with a base color of LA Colors Lost Soul and I used Wet N Wild A Blank Canvas for the white spots, and Lacquered Bliss Polish Take Charge for the purple spots. I used a tooth pick and black acrylic paint for the black. 

The white spotted ones are the snow leopard (Yeah I know it should be the opposite but I don't like wearing white like that too often.) and the purple spot ones were inspired by my bed sheets. It has a leopard/zebra pattern on it in light grays, purples and white. So I used the purple spotted leopard print pattern on them to inspire these. 

Let me know what you think of these in the comments, and be sure to check out the rest of the challenge themes as well as the other ladies Snow Leopard looks below!

Animal print skittle nail art! + Bunday Sunday!

Today I have a quick skittle manicure to show with you. I love love love animal print nail art in general, and I got this in my head and that it would be something fun to do and I threw it together. 

The pinky and middle finger base is LA Colors La creme, the index is LA Colors Whipped, the thumb is LA Colors Spat! and the ring finger is sinful colors Unicorn. I used La Creme to make the spots on the index finger and all the other details are acylic paint. 

We have a tiger print on the thumb, something I haven't done before and doesn't look that great because I was trying to make it not just look like an orange zebra. The index finger is a leopard print. The middle finger is a zebra print. Giraffe print on the ring finger. And the way out of place cow print on the pinky finger. I couldn't think of anything else to do and I wanted it to be a true skittle manicure with all fingers being something different, so even though it doesn't really fit in with the other animals, I used it anyways.

What did you think of this look? Let me know in the comments below! There's also some pictures of Foofy for bunday sunday below the jump if you would like to see my bunny furbaby!

Water marble Wednesday!

So, I skipped water marble Wednesday last week because I was sick the week before that and I didn't feel like doing much of anything with my nails. Definitely didn't feel like dealing with the mess of water marbling to get ahead and have one all set up to post last week. But I did promise I'd bring it back this week with another water marble, so here we are! Just click the jump below to see more and find out how I did these nails. 

Off Topic Tuesday

Time for another off topic tuesday! 

I'm not sure I have much to share today though, haha. I have a couple not so off topic things that aren't really worthy of getting their own post that I'm going to include, and also a couple pictures. Maybe. 

 First up is the not so off-topic things. This is my Mani for the weekend, and it doesn't really fit my challenges, but I didn't want to give it it's own post. So I'm just including it here. La colors meadow and pink bubbles and the black details are done with acrylic paint. I loooved it so much! It was so bright and pretty. I just love leopard print nails so much lately.

 

And this one isn't really off topic either, considering it is nail care of some sort. A couple months ago, I decided I wanted to make my own cuticle oil. Just for myself, but I looked up different oils and the benefits of using them and all of that. Jojoba I decided was a must, and the rest was up for debate. I didn't want to use just jojoba because I wanted to mix it with other oils to get the benefits of all of them, on top of making my oils last that much longer. The smallest bottles I can find are 4oz bottles, and right now I have 3 different ones. That will last me FOREVER. The before picture is from about 6 weeks ago, the after picture is from just a few days ago. And other than the horrible yellow staining on my nails they look MUCH better. You can tell my cuticles are looking better than ever. I miss my length though :( That's growing back though! 

Those results were just with jojoba and grape seed oil. I recently added a vitamin e oil to it though. One that I thought was just vitamin e when I ordered it, but when I got it, discovered it was vitamin e, coconut, and mineral oil. But since I'm only using a little bit of it mixed with everything else, It'll work still and add coconut oil to the mix as well. I've almost got enough to order almond oil to add to the mix as well and then I want to get some apricot and avocado oil to add as well as some fragrance oils. I'm getting there slowly! But then once I have those three oils and the fragrances I want, it'll be complete! I'm still debating whether or not I should add olive oil, anyone have any thoughts on that? 

Yes.. I rambled a lot there. I'm done with that subject. 

I've been watching the new series on netflix, hemlock grove? I don't know how much I like it yet, it's just the second episode I watched last night. But.. I have to say.. it's the goriest werewolf transformation I think I've ever seen. Ever. But then.. I don't watch a lot of werewolf movies either so I could have been missing out on those gory gross transformations all this time! Maybe I should check out some of them and see, haha. I love gory gross horror movies. I'm hard to scare, so they NEVER scare me. But, they might possibly succeed in grossing me out one day. Anyone ever seen the human centipede? If you're easily grossed out.. I wouldn't touch it.. just saying. 

Aaand last for this week.. I've recently (as in, just yesterday) remembered that new found glory is amazing and that they've got a pretty recent album out. Maybe not that recent, (It's about a year old I think?) But still. I'm a fail at keeping up with these things and I find them late. But spotify has been amazing at keeping up. I've always loved them, seen them live at warped tour once. Almost got crushed against the barricades even though the security guy tried to tell me not to stay there, right before giving me his super hot and gross been sitting in the sun all day monster energy drink because he didn't like it, haha. I didn't really care that I was getting crushed though. One of the best shows ever. Even in texas july heat. Horrible.

I think I've rambled enough though, so I'll leave you here.

And I didn't miss any days, so I had to go with my favorite polish. but I couldn't leave it at just that, it needed to have a little something extra than just a colors, so I kinda sorta went with my favorite polish brand and now, see what I've did for today after clicking the link below
