This one's for Bea!

Hey everybody:) I hope y'all had a great weekend, I know I did! This post is for one of our biggest fans Bea, she asked me to do a water marble she had seen on pshiiit.com . And so I tried for a couple of days and to no fault of my own I couldn't recreate the water marble (I just didn't have the same colors). So I did try a couple of times and these are the results.

Attempt #1
I thought that because the photo showed holo that using all holo would give me the same effect... no such luck! In this W.M. I used a black base, Color Club Beyond, Eternal Beauty, Holo-Graphic and Cherubic. FYI if you are going to attempt this W.M. understand that holos are extremely hard to W.M. with and dry quickly. I think I kinda like the way this turned out anyway:)




Attempt #2
This W.M. is the closest I could get to the one from pshiiit. I didn't have the same colors but I think this turned out really pretty and the photos showed the chromes I used but not like IRL. I used Revlon Street Wear Raw, China Glaze Swanky Silk, Unpredictable and Color Club Cherubic with a black base coat.

Wow these really had me working hard to get the right combos and the right everything else... I guess the Earth aligned with whatever and these two came out pretty great! Leave me a comment and tell me what y'all think of these W.M.
And Bea I hope you love them as much as we love you!

Happy Polishing Everybody!
Love,

Headed to the Beach!

Hey everybody:) I wanted to share this weeks mani with you a little early cause I'm headed to the BEACH! I'm taking my daughter to visit my brother in South Carolina. I wanted to make sure my mani was as happy as I was to be headed to visit family and the beach! I had originally seen this mani on pinterest and just had to give it a go. So here is my mani I like to call "Headed to the Beach"!


OMG! I just can't get enough of this mani... it is perfect for vacation! Leave me a comment and tell me what you think of this mani! I'll be back next week with a new mani of the week, maybe something Easter related!

Happy Polishing Everybody!
Love,

Peacock Feather

Hey everybody:) Today I have a peacock inspired mani for y'all!
Just a little back round on me, I live in Georgia and out in the country.... I mean like in the middle of no where! So we get a lot of wild life here from deer to wild turkey and yes peacocks. I have never seen the peacock but I sure have heard it, if you don't know what it sounds like do a search and then you will know, they are super loud and the males have a particular call! So yesterday when I was outside in-between the rain showers I heard the peacock and thought what a great idea for a mani:) Did a search for feathers and got to work! This mani did take a while to finish only because I wanted to give some of the polish time to dry.
Here is the peacock inspired mani:)




Peacock feather up close!

I really love the look of the dark blue mixed with the teal to give that pop to the mani! Leave me a comment and tell me what you think of this mani :) 

Happy Polishing Everyone!
