Christmas Tree Nail Art - Caviar Beads and Striping Tape

A little late on this post but it'll be archived for posterity anyways.  Right before the holidays I was wearing China Glaze Fifth Avenue and decided it needed some spicing up!

Because this wasn't a planned out mani, the color scheme is a little bit off. I'm not a super fan of the mauve and metallic mint but I don't hate it either.

I used scotch tape, striping tape and caviar beads for this design.  The scotch tape was used to make a triangle and the striping tape was zigzagged back and forth and then painted over with Pop Beauty Jade Metal.  Then I peeled both tapes off and applied the caviar beads (which bled terribly by the way with the top coat - these were from the dollar store).  I then applied the stars at the top and sealed with top coat. SUPER simple, took only a few minutes!

Oopsie Daisies Christmas Polish - Fir - Limited Edition!

The wrapping up of the semester left me with little time for a big holiday collection, so I knew it'd be limited.. so I had to make it as fun as possible! Fir is a deconstructed Christmas tree polish - a clear based glitter topper with green shreds and various color glitter "ornaments" with a gold holo sparkle and white matte stars to top the tree off!  There are hints of blue, yellow, red,  pink and turquoise surrounded by the green of a fir tree.

Fir is available at the Oopsie Daisies Etsy shop now for a limited time only. CLICK TO SHOP.

Ridiculously late Halloween manicure! Frankenstein!

I've been slacking so bad, that I'm posting a Halloween manicure I did on the 7th of November.  Eek. Enjoy anyways, hehe.

I did Frankenstein! So cute, so simple.  I used Essie Mojito Madness for the green and WnW Black Creme for the black.  For the thumb, I painted my nail green and waited for it to dry.  I used unique shaped nail guides and painted over and then removed the guide.  I dotted on some eyes and pupils as well.  For the stitched nails I used more nail guides and then painted over the meeting point of the green and bare nail with a black striper. It took all of 10 minutes! So easy, so I loved it.

Oopsie Daisies Fourth of July Polish - 1776

I struggled with whether or not to have this polish be in a white base or not, but I think the clear base for this polish really makes it versatile.  I particularly like it over navy blue, but it plays well with other shades as well!  This polish, inspired by the colors of the American Flag, is a clear based polish with various sizes of red, white and blue glitter in both matte and metallic finishes.

 

Photos below show one coat of 1776 over Sinful Colors New Wave, a navy blue creme. Over Orly Bonder and sealed with one coat of Out the Door.

Valentine's Striping Manicure

I couldn't let my perfectly pink mani go to waste, so I jazzed it up with some stripes!

I used four different striping polishes and left some of the base color, Butter London Snog, show through as well.

I used, from left to right, b.s.n. Planet, Art Deco Baby Pink, Art Club Malmsy and b.s.n. White.  I get the b.s.n. stripers from my local dollar store.

I was inspired by Valentine's Day with the color scheme, even though it's next month.  The whole process of the striping only took about 5 minutes, so it was super easy for a fun finished product.

I want to share my NYE mani as well, as it's quickly become one of my favorite combinations ever.  My super thoughtful BFF Brittany showed me a blog with this combination, and I wish I could find the link!  I used the same polishes used in that post.

"Natural" Light

Shown is three coats of OPI Samoan Sand with one coat of MASH Nail Art Polish in Silver over Orly Bonder and sealed with Out the Door.  This MASH polish is labeled as a stamping polish, but I didn't use it as one. It's SUPER dense though and I had to have nearly no polish on the brush to get it so thin.  My hands sparkled subtly all night and I loved it!

Wintry Nails with Snowflake Stickers

It hasn't even been cold lately, not sure where the inspiration was for this.  This is one of those manicures that look much much better at a distance, not super macro friendly.  I had one with it, though!

"Natural" Light

I'm patiently waiting for my thumbnail to grow more, too. I've never broke a thumb nail before, was so bummed when it happened. And I don't even know HOW it happened!

"Natural" Light

For this mani I sponged on China Glaze Dance Baby and Seaspray with which made this purple-y base you're seeing.  Then I sponged on some China Glaze Frosty (one of my all time faves!), added dots with my dotting tool using Frosty again and Sally Hansen Whirlwind White. I had ordered these stickers from Born Pretty over the summer, was fun to get to use them! So many shapes and styles of snow flakes.

LOL, I tried some nail art. Promptly removed and replaced.

Oopsie Daisies Apple Picking Jelly Sandwich

The thought hit me to turn Apple Picking into a jelly sandwich when I woke up this morning, so that's what I did!

"Natural" Light

This manicure consisted of to coats OPI Y'all Come Back Now Ya Hear?, two coats of Oopise Daisies Apple Picking, and one more coat of OPI. I'm not sure if it was because I used my Barielle base coat which isn't really a base coat, or what, but the OPI jelly stained a bit. I used one coat of the Barielle Pro Advanced and one coat of OTD for this mani.

Then I added some stamping.  I used bornpretty's black stamping polish and BM plates 211, 314 and 305 for the images.  The stamping polish worked well, better than WnW Black Creme, which was transferring too sheer. The brush for the stamping polish was flared and had strays which made it a little messy to work with, but the opacity was nice which made up for it.  The stamping polishes are available HERE for $6.93 and free shipping.  Also, you can use coupon code "CA10L91" for 10% as well!
