Spring Challenge 3: Fruits and Dots

Hi everyone,

I am so sorry I'm late with this, I was in the process of moving from one apartment to the other, and I had some school assignments due so those had to be priority. To make up for my lateness I had done 3 things for you: This challenge, a look at a colour I had previously purchased, and also a video haul. Of course they will be separate posts and they won't all be chucked up in this one post. 



Anyway, without further a due here is Challenge 3: Fruits and Dots. The colours I had chosen was yellow and green. I honestly did not like the way they turned out, so I ended up rubbing them off afterward. I was also rushing so please excuse if I didn't clean up my nails.

Tools:
  • MASH dotting tool
  • Bundle Monster plate BM04
  • EBay plate m30
  • Kleancolor: Popping Green
  • Kleancolor: Black
  • Milani: Yellow Whiz
  • Rimmel: French Lingerie



And it Begins...

I first did a single coat of Rimmel's French Lingerie

Then added so dots using the Yellow Whiz at the top and The Popping Green at the bottom.

Then I added another layer of the French Lingerie just to lightly show the dots through.

Then I added more dots on top of that layer being careful not to really cover the underlying dots.

Then lastly, I added my fruit stamps in the Black. I honestly did not like the way it turned out, and you could probably see I tried it with the white stamp at first but that didn't work out too well.

Spring Challenge 2: Flowers and Stripes

HI everybody!

So excited about today's submission for the Spring Challenge by Purple Glitters. This challenge was stripes and flowers and the colour combination I chose was pink and green.
I really hope you like what I came up with.


Tools:

  • NYC: High Line Green
  • Kleancolor: Popping Green
  • Milani Jewel FX: Fuchsia
  • Wet n' Wild: Dreamy Poppy
  • MASH dotting tool

HEre is the base colour which is the NYC High Line Green. And please excuse the smudge on my thumb that you will see throughout. :-D


Next I used the Kleancolor Popping green on 2 fingers.


Added the Milani Fuchsia... not too sure if I had liked it at first but in the final product I fell in love with it.


HEre is the finished product, which you can see I added the tiny flowers using my MASH dotting tool witht he colour Dreamy Poppy by Wet n' Wild.


HEre is the final product with the flash (which makes me look extra white...ugh)

I am soooo happy with the way this turned out. I hope you enjoyed this as much I did.

Shiny Penny

Hi everyone,

sorry I haven't been posting any nails in a few days. I've switched computers and trying to get all my stuff transferred to my new one including my programs I use to edit. 


but anyway, I painted my nails with Nina Ultra Pro: Shiny Penny, which is a lovely brownish-bronze-y colour with a very subtle shimmer in it, that you really see in the picture with the flash. Anyway, take a look-see.

(click picture to enlarge)

This polish went on very easily, I applied 2 coats just for good measure, one coat seemed a little transparent. Fairly easy to cleanup. I used Beauty Secrets base coat and Oh So Wet! top coat, which dries quickly but does not leave that glassy shine I wanted when I bought this.

This polish is lasting longer than I expected... I'm going on to day 4 now with just one very unnoticeable chip I got when I hit my hand.

See you next time and take care,
Kelly-Ann.

Random Haul


Hello my dears, 

This week I went to Sally's Beauty Supply bought a few stuff and then walked to the Ross in the same plaza, I may have gone a little over board when I went to Ross because I ended up buying quite a bit of nail polish sets. (They were just so affordable I could not help myself.)

Beauty Secrets Acetone

Oh So Wet top coat


I have already used the top coat, base coat and the new acetone (not pictured here). The base coat seems to go on nicely, so does the top coat which is quick dry that I did notice worked well, but when it came to having that wet look I wanted it did not live up my expectations at all but a good buy nonetheless. 

When I did my nails after I bought the new acetone I was using my old acetone (Equate Acetone I bought in Wal-Mart) to clean up at first and I had found that my brush was getting stiff and sticky no matter how I wiped and soaked it in the acetone I had, then something in my mind told me to try the new one, and when I did, OH MY! what a difference it made. It was as if the stickiness and stiffness dissolved. On top of that it cleaned so easily and smelt better then my other acetone.

Hope you enjoyed my rant and spending,
Kelly-Ann.

Red Heart

Hi everyone,

As I said in my previous post I will be keeping it simple over the next couple weeks, mostly doing swatches and maybe the occasional simple stamp on a finger or two. But this doesn't go for my toes, so those will still be coming up.

I have also gotten better with cleaning up my nails and even better with real acetone...anyway I will elaborate on that in my next post pointing out the differences I saw.

To day I used Kleancolor: Red Heart.


I loved this colour, it is so radiant. However, I did find it a little hard to clean up, hence the reason it looks a little untidy.


I really do like this colour, which is strange for me because I don't normally like red on my nails.

That's it for now, Take care,
Kelly-Ann.
