Bright Pink!

It doesn't happen often, but this is one of those times that I wish I hadn't have stamped these nails.  They turned out decent enough; however, they were so bright and then the stamping diminished them a bit.  Pretty, still, but the bright was stunning!

Started with a base of two coats of All Mixed Up Lacquers I Am The Confusion (June 2024 PPU), no top coat.

Topped with a coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

UberChic UC Isn't It Romantique

Stamped using UberChic UC Isn't It Romantique with Painted Polish Blanc Slate, no top coat.

Finished with a coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

These nails still turned out nice, but the pink was so bright; I loved it!

Shells!

Another tropical mani with these shell nails!   I think this base is perfect for these nails as it looks like the beautiful blues of the ocean where you find shells!

Started with a base of Femme Fatale Floral Coral, HHC October 2022, no top coat.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Stamped using B. 11 Summer Paradise using Painted Polish Blanc Slate, no top coat.

Welcome, Spring!

Spring officially arrived this morning at 5:01 am so I thought I'd share these spring nails!

The awesomeness that is Polished For Days Fire Rainbow.  This is one of my favourite polishes and I may have a couple back up bottles as I never want to risk running out!

Waves!

I used to do these gradient type of nails all the time but I haven't done them in a while.  These nails are from 2021 and I'm not even sure I've done them since, although I'm not sure why as I think these are kinda cool!  Here's what I came up with!

Dixie Plates Textures and Patterns 02

Polishes used, starting at thumb and going clockwise, all Picture Polishes, Cosmos, Freya's Cats, Forget Me Not, Alice and Ariel, no top coat.

St Patrick’s Nails!

Here's one of the St. Patrick's Day mani's I did this year.  I think they turned out pretty cool and hope they inspire anyone with very short nails. 

Used Painted Polish Celtic Crelly (ring), Chance 080 (thumb), DND 2521 (ring, middle and pinky) and topped Shleee Polish Fauna on top of the index and ring fingers.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Stamped with an image from Lantern & Wren Stamp All Clover on pinky and ring using Painted Polish Blanc Slate, Lantern & Wren A Wee Bit Irish on the middle using Painted Polish Blanc Slate and Woodland Whimsey, BeautyBigBang XL-067 on thumb using Painted Polish Blanc Slate and lately, CjS H-50 on middle using MdU 80, What's Up Nails The Other Side and Painted Polish Woodland Whimsey. 

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

These nails were done less than a week ago; as you can see they are just growing out, which is why I haven't done more than a couple St. Patrick's Day nails.  Buttttt, a day or so ago, I noticed what looked like a little free edge so clipped one nail down even more so no more mani's for a few days.

Thanks for looking!
