Tutorial Tuesday!


Hey guys! Ahhh! Guess what?! I got my braces off!! Finally!!! 
And sorry about the title.. I couldn't figure out what to call this at all!
Now back to nails... It's Tutorial Tuesday once again! I'm pretty happy with this design! I was running out of ideas.. then I look down and I see it..My shirt! It has a great pattern that's pretty easy to do!
Here's my shirt..
and here's what I used.. I think Color Mates might be one of my favorite brands! It works so well!
So first I painted all my nails a grayish light bluish color.. They're kinda messy, but nothing a little nail polish remover can't fix :)
Then I used the purple and a stiping brush to make thick lines in different spots on all my nails..
Next with coral and a light blue I put them both on opposite sides of the stripe. Then on some nails I added another purple stripe..
And lastly I added coral and blue lines and put some purple dots in spots that were too empty..
And here's the design I came out with! When they were dry I put my Nutra Nail topcoat to protect the design and make it shine! So I hope you guys liked this design!

Any questions or ideas? Comment below!

Bye Guys!!<3

Black and White MisMatch with Pop of Color!!

Hey guys!! Yay! Tutorial Tuesday! I'm really excited about this design! It turned out really well!:D
I didn't take a picture of what I used but it's..

- OPI Alpine Snow
- Sally Hansen Black Out
- Wet N Wild Lavender Creme
- White and black striper
- Dotting tool
- Nail stickers with a houndstooth design (From dollar store)
- Top and base coat

Ok, so here's what it'll look like when it's all finished..
On my index finger I painted the whole nail white and then put horizontal black lines.

On my middle finger I did Interlocked Polka Dots..here's how..
Paint the whole nail white..
Paint a black triangle in one of the corners..

And then, with the dotting tool, put the colors of dots on opposite sides..haha it's really hard to explain that:(
The ring finger is just two coats of pink and 3 thin, black lines coming out of one corner.

My thumb is just 2 coats of black with white zebra stripes..
And then my pinky is this houndstooth design! I knew I couldn't hand paint this so I used a sticker. These work really well for being from the dollar store , but just to be safe I put a top coat over it. :)

Hope you like this design!

Animal Print Nails!!

Hey Guys! It's Tutorial Tuesday!!! Today I'm going to show you how to do animal print nails!

But first I want to thank The Manicured Monkey for presenting me on her blog! I was soo excited!!

Here's what it looks like when it's all done..
Ok, so on the index finger I used....
- L.A Colors White
- Milani Awesome Orange
- Black striper
- Make-up sponge
First, I did one thin coat of white so the orange would show up better.

Then, using the make-up sponge cover the whole nail with orange.

With the striper make the stripes. You want to put some pressure on one end and then just flick the brush.

And there you go! A tiger stripe nail!
On my middle finger I used..
- L.A Colors White
- L.A Colors Mega Watt
- Sinful Colors Nirvana
- Thin striping brush

First, I painted a thin coat of white and two coats of Mega Watt.  Then using a darker brown make giraffe spots.. haha there's not much more to it..
Now on my ring finger I used..

- OPI Alpine Snow
- Black striper 

I did 2 coats of white Then made the zebra stripes..
On my pinky I used.
- OPI Alpine Snow
- Sally Hansen Black Out
- Thin brush

First, paint 2 coats of white, then you could either use a dotting tool or a striper to make some spots. All these animal prints are really easy!
And lastly on my thumb I used..
- L.A Colors White
- Pure Ice Jaguar 
- Sally Hansen Black Out
- Dotting tool

I did one thin coat of white and 2 coats of Jaguar.

Then with the dotting tool make little C shapes and black dots all over your nail..
And that's it! Animal print nails!!

Hope you like these!
