Valentine's Day Nails

Hmm yes I am quite excellent at posting things late.

As I had mentioned before, I didn't want to do the reds and pinks for Valentine's Day this year.  I instead went for a completely different color palette (which paired perfectly with my outfit, so don't worry):

For this manicure:

• Base Coat - Base Coat by Finger Paints
• Thumb - Alexis by Julep, Björk by Julep, white half pearl from Claire's
• Pointer & Ring - Tribeca Silver by NYC
• Middle - Endless Blue by Sinful Colors, What a Broad by Sephora by OPI, stamped with iced silver by b.m.c. & BM-023 by Bundle Monster
• Pinky - aruba blue by essie, Björk by Julep, white half pearl from Claire's
• Top Coat - Top Coat by Out the Door

Approximate Completion Time: 1.5 hours

So take that, reds and pinks.  Gotta step aside for something cool and hip.

And that's all I have to say for now, really.  Stay safe because we'll meet again soon! :)

Subtle Valentine

Hello!  Sorry I was away for so long.  School decided to start fast and start strong.  So I had to deal with that for a while.  I'm still dealing with school, but I stole some time to paint my nails the other day :)

I don't feel like wearing Valentine's Day nails on the actual day, so I painted my nails with Valentine's Day themes for now.  Just to get it over with.  Because it would feel weird if I didn't paint my nails in Valentine's Day colors/themes at least once a year.

For this manicure:

• Base Coat - Base Coat by Finger Paints
• Thumb, Ring, & Pinky - Margit by Julep
• Pointer & Middle - My Vampire is Buff by OPI, stamped with crimson red by b.m.c. & BM-019 by Bundle Monster
• Top Coat - Top Coat by Out the Door

Approximate Completion Time: 1 hour

Valentine's Day will be one of those rare occasions where I get to paint both of my nails and I don't feel guilty because I will be so pretty :)

Hopefully you hear from me soon!

Valentine's Ombre

Hello friends!  Happy Valentine's Day!  Or for those who prefer the other version...Happy Singles Awareness Day!  And if you're one of those people who don't like either holiday, then...Happy Friday!  February is half over now, and you're doing a good job with life :)

My nails are simple for this holiday season (because I still have to study for midterms HAHA), so let me present to you my Valentine's Day ombre nails:

If you wanted to recreate this nail look, you can.  I promise.  I actually promise this time.  It only takes five different shades of one color.  Really.  That's all there is to it.

More on these nails after the jump!
