My first galaxy

Hello my lovely readers and hello new faces! I'm so glad you have enjoyed what I've had to show so far and I'm hoping you like this one too! I did this a week or so ago because a couple of girls at work had been asking(pestering is more like it haha) to try out the galaxy nail. They always find new things and ask me to try it out so this is what I came up with!

I used a mix of colors to come up with this and although its not very "galaxy" I lovedddd the way this came out. Some of the polishes I used were Sally Hansen bubble gum pink & mellow yellow, Sinful Colors Snow me white & black on black, China glaze fairy dust and for the life of me I can't think of the pure ice or essence that I used. I started with a coat(that's right! One coat!) Of black on black and then sponged the other colors in random spots. I then used my dotting tool to add the "stars" with snow me white and topped it off with fairy dust and a thick coat of seche vite!

The girls were more than impressed and asked me to do this on their nails as well! I hope you enjoy and until next time!

Leopard, why are you so bright?

Good morning loveys and happy wednesday! Life is crazy hectic like usual, I've got some great stuff coming my way in the next week or so that I can't wait to show you!

Today I have a mani that was inspired by one of my favorite bloggers, Cristina at Let Them Have Polish! She did a bright leopard skittle and I thought this was so fun and summery! And in Arizona I thought this would be a perfect mani to try out. I used Sarah from Chalkboard Nails tutorial for the leopard and this was a quick and easy nail day for me!

For my mani I used zoya-charisma (I got this off of copious for a penny!) And zoya-renee. I can't say enough good things about zoya polishes. They always apply like butter, and they have a wide range of shades. For the spot outline, I used china glaze- liquid leather.

I hope you enjoy and until next time!
