AARRRRR Matey!

We had our local Pirate fest in my area the other day. There was a parade, beads, pirate costumes, drinking and everything else associated with Pirates. So of course my nails had to represent the occasion! and this is what I did.

I've been loving this ombre look lately and I really wanted to do red and black for my pirate look so I decided why not? :)

I used three differnt reds and a black for this look first (the brightest red) I use Sally Hanson's Diamonds and Rubies, then Nina Ultra Pro's love struck, then China Glaze's Heart of Africa, and last but not least my Sinful Colors' Black on black. Also for the skull and cross bones design I used Revlon top speed's metallic.

The design was actually pretty easy to do. I just used a tooth pick and free handed it all. I thought It came out pretty cool. I did it on both of my thumbs.

I hope you liked my little treasure of a nail design as much as I did. lol :p Thanks for reading!

NOTD Pink Konad Stamping

So I got some new stamping plates the other day so I decided to try them out. And this is what I came up with :)

I loved this pattern and I thought the two different colors looked cool!

For this look I used two sinful colors colors :) The darked pink is Folly and the Lighter pink is 24/7 My fave is deffinatly the darker pink for some reason even though they're the same brand it just went on so much nicer.

The stamping plate I use was a Konad plate M64. Konad is the only stamping plates I've used so far but I'm looking into other brands to see how they work I just have to find the right one!

Nail stamping is fun and easy to do. Paint it on scrape it off stamp and you're done! I hope you liked what you saw :) and thanks for reading!

Sally Hanson Salon Effects Nail Polish Strips

So I went on vacation for New Years and I needed a manicure that that was going to last me the whole trip with out chipping. So I decided on the Sally Hanson Salon Effects polish strips. I had tried these before and they last for ever with out chipping.

I chose the color Rock Star which was just right for the occasion. (New Years in Times Square!)

So this is what you get in the pack, you get two packs of nail strips, a little buffing file a mini orange stick, and the instructions.

You get two packs of 8 nail polish strips. You match the size strip to your nail peal off the backing and stick it to your nail, using the orange stick to make sure its fully attached.

The strip is way longer then your nail (unless you have REALLY long nails) but this is what it looks like when you first put the strip on your nail.

On the box it say no dry nail polish, but if you try to file the excess polish strip off right away it will chip a little and wont look perfect. So let it set up for a little and then you use the file to take off the excess polish. It says you don't have to put on a top coat but its really up to you. I did just to prevent chipping.

This is the finished look! It was perfect for what I needed them for but let me warn you! These take FOREVER to take off! I ended up having to file them off. The non glitter kinda doesn't take as long but these where just a pain in the butt. But they come in tons of colors and designs and are really cool if you ask me! :)
