Halloween Nails 2K14


Its been awhile since I've done nail art. I just wasn't inspired or had the time to try anything.
But with Halloween around the corner I had to do something fun for the holiday.
Each nail is something different - the thumb is a mummy, index is Frankenstein, middle is eyeballs, ring finger is a tombstone and pinky is a blood drip.
Fun and colourful
Thanks for reading! :)

Neon Tribe



On my days off I like to pamper myself and give my self the full salon/spa treatment.
Usually I make a face mask to help and treat my face after a long week or travelling and being in and out of different environments. I also like to give my body vitamins and different oils to give me that baby bottom soft skin and lastly I like to do my nails. Its a hidden passion and I really love the compliments I get, it makes me want to do even funky and crazy nail designs. 
I currently have these fun neon tribal.
Its bright and catches the eyes.
Thanks for reading!

Alpine Snow


My sister loves long white manicures via Kylie Jenner. She has become a style icon and a fashion icon for many women of all ages.
I really have been liking this nail trend of long simple colours. I find white is one of the hardest polishes to apply it never has a great consistancy either its too thick or too clumpy. 
A very unstated mani that catches the eye.

PS. Happy Canada Day to everyone celebrating. Hope y'all enjoy it.
Literally fours ago I started this blog, I'm very proud of it :) and myself for it's growth

Tropical Gradient

This mani reminds me of parrots in South America where my parents grew up. This mani is very eye catching and simple to recreate. Just paint on the colours onto a wedge sponge and sponge onto your nails. When I first saw this gradient years ago it looked hard but its really easy, it just can be a pain to clean sometimes. Thanks for reading.

The Last of Winter

Finally saying goodbye to the cold and those long icy nights. I can finally say it's Spring. This might be my last dark nail look for a while and follow the spring pastels.
I got the studs from ebay for $1, the navy polish is from Joe fresh and the periwrinkle and gold base are from china glaze. A very simple manicure.
Thanks for reading and follow for more.

Easter Watercolour Nails



I'm posting these very late but here are my Easter watercolour nails. I wanted to try something different from the normal baby chick and Easter egg designs that I normally would have. This is a really simple way to get a colourful look on your nails. I started with dotting 4 pastel colours and smudging it around with saran wrap to get the desired effect. The best part is it looks like you put a lot of effort into it and it's not messy. A win-win! I used a matte topcoat to change it up.

Thanks for reading!

Colourful Daisy Nails


I actually created these nails last year and I recently found the pictures and decided why not.
The fit with the theme of spring and Easter.
I used pastel colours and a toothpick to create the petals. 
The weather in Toronto is crazy it was actually SNOWING yesterday. So much for Spring.
Thanks for reading and try out this cute design.

Classy Nude Nails


Currently stuck in school till 5pm but I'd like to show you what I have on my nails right now.
I took a twist on the classic french manicure. This look is classy and sophisticated. The nude pairs really well with the black as they contrast. This look is very simple to recreate and you don't even need a nail art brush/striper to do it.
Im stuck writing a 2500 essay this suckssss! Wish me luck bye for now.
Thanks for reading!

Dandelion Manicure

A fun and simple manicure that you can do in less than 5 minutes. 
It's a cute fall design with dandelions blowing in the wind.
I used recycle by china glaze for the base and a black stripper for the stem and a thin white stripper for the fluffy dandelion top. Ohh i nearly forgot I also put on a matte top coat which I liked a lot better than my usually glossy finish.  This can work on both short nails and long nails.
Try it out for yourself. Enjoy!

Ruffian Nails

A fun fall mani that has a sophisticated edge and a clean look. I loved this design but I didn't think it would look good on me. Nor am I a fan of dark colours on me but with this design you can easily change up the colours depending on your mood. 
I went for a festive fall look that reminded me of the leaves on the trees and longer dark nights. 
This was a fun and simple mani and I hope you try it out for yourself. I used three colours and a matte top coat on the black to add something extra to the manicure.

Neon Splatter Nails

I saw this as a cute design for summer, but i had to try this as soon as i can. When i Googles nail art i never once saw this neon splatter so i might as well be one of the first (unless i didnt google hard enough :S)
 This was a really and fun easy manicure to accomplish its just very messy.

 These are the neon colours i used to get this look on my nails
This is what your nails will look like at first so make sure you colour the floor with newspaper and around your nail with tape to make clean up easier. To do this all i got were my nail polishes lined up and ready to use and then i got a straw to use to blow the nail polish on my nails. First i dipped the straw into the bottle directly and blowed the straw aiming at my nails. The faster you blow into the straw the less bigger blobs of polish you will get. in the end you will get a colourful and fun looking manicure.
