My Space Nails

I've been meaning to do these nails for a while. SPACE NAILS and credits go to Asami's Space Nail tutorial. I hope you enjoy, they don't look much like space to me (compared to Asami's) but it reminds me more of a nebulous cloud in space, maybe because I sponged too much =P

Materials I used:

OPI Suzi Skis in the Pyrenees Suede (since I didn't have ManGlaze Matte is Murder or Zoya Dovima)

OPI DS Original (for the holo part)
Misa No Shrinking Violetta (for the sheer duochrome part)

Pa Nail Color A125 (for the stars)

I got a compliment today when I wore them out for the first day. :)
Hope you like them as much as I do!~

happy polishing

We'll Always Have Paris

I've been meaning to post up this mani. but I forgot about it along with other vault pictures that I haven't resized and marked. :P But this is definitely a favorite, mainly because of the pictures taken because it wasn't taken at my usual location (aka my room! lol) and the lighting was better (natural sun ftw!!). Anyways, this was taken after the "giant" blizzard in December. It's 2 coats of OPI We'll Always Have Paris Suede and 1 coat of top coat, which I wanted after I saw Nailstah post a swatch/review of it. Definitely amazing! It was a rush mani. though. Looking at these pictures, I'm soooooooo envious of my long nails, they're nubs now. :(

Mermaid Attempt

Hey everyone! :) I hope you all are doing well~ Today I'm going to show you a swatch, that you've probably seen before but it's new to my collection, so I hope you enjoy. I also attempted to do a nail art, which is part of my resolution, to be more creative and experimental with nail art, so I hope you'll like it. The nail art wasn't anything planned, it just came to me as I did the swatch. I actually like it although it doesn't exactly reach what I was thinking of.

Today's SOTD is OPI Here Today... Aragon Tomorrow Suede. It's a beautiful medium forest green shimmer. It's beautiful and opaque in 2 coats. The swatch shows both without and with top coat. I think it's absolutely beautiful and I don't know why I haven't gotten HTATS sooner :P! Formula and application was smooth and easy as well.

The NAOTD is Mermaid Scales :P I used 2 coats of OPI Here Today... Aragon Tomorrow Suede, drew scales with KISS Nail Art in Pearl Black then filled in the spaces with China Glaze Fairy Dust to add a more 'mystical' look to the scales :P In my opinion, I think I did a pretty good job. Hope you think so too!

Anyways, hope you enjoyed & happy polishing!
