Newspaper Nail Art

Finally got around to trying newspaper nail art, and it was easier than I thought! I first coated my nails with Sally Hansen's "Powerful Acrylic Gel", and a coat of Revlon's "Silver". Once that was dry I took small pieces of newspapers, dipped them in alcohol and pressed them against the nail for 30 seconds. I peeled the paper off, and it was a success!

Hope you like it :)

Sonic the Hedgehog - Nail Art

Some really really simple nail art I did last night, based off of Sonic the Hedgehog. I'm not sure what colours I used though, because the bottles had no names on them..

Got any requests for my next nail art?

Piplup Nail Art

Recently VijiiS requested Piplup nail art (from Pokemon). So tonight I tried and this is the result!

Products used:
China Glaze - Frostbite
China Glaze - For Audrey
Revlon - Blackest Black
Wet N' Wild - White Creme
Sally Hansen - Mellow Yellow

Hope you like it!

Legend of Zelda/Triforce Nail Art

Yes, more nerdy nail art. This time it's a triforce, which is three golden triangles that represent wisdom, courage, and power. I painted all my nails with China Glaze Peace on Earth, and a coat of Orly's Glitz and Glamour on all but my ring finger. On my left hand's ring finger I painted the golden triforce with Glitz and Glamour abd outlined it with a generic black polish..

The next time I post will be Piplup nail art as requested by 'VijiiS'   :)

Pikachu Nail Art

Being the Pokémon nerd I am, I decided to some Pikachu nail art. It's nothing fancy, but I wanted something cute, bright, and simple :)

Haha, I'm such a nerd :P

Let me know if you want to see more nail art like this!

Easter Bunny Nail Art :)

So it's almost easter weekend, and to celebrate I did some Easter Bunny nail art. To go along with this theme I'm also wearing sparkly, pink bunny ears tomorrow :)

Revlon - Bubble Gum

Wet N' Wild - White Creme

China Glaze - Liquid Leather

China Glaze - Fast Forward Top Coat

Happy Easter weekend everybody!

Strawberry Pocky Inspired Nails

So today's nail art is pretty simple, but it's inspired by something I love. If you don't know what Pocky is, it's a Japanese treat that consists of a long, crunchy biscuit stick, coated with chocolate. But I really love the Strawberry flavour as well. I got a box today and loved the colours of the packaging so I decided to do some nail art!

I used:

-Lime by Billie Cosmetics

-Broken Hearted Crackle by China Glaze

-Crushed Candy Crackle by China Glaze

I hope you liked this post, and feel free to comment below :)

~On another note, I think that I may start posting makeup related things as well~

~Hope you guys don't mind!~

Icing by Claire's Polish Haul and a Quick Question

Icing by Claire's is a great place to buy nail polish. It's cheap, great colours and fairly good formula. So I recently bought a few colours, most of them being sparkly :) Sorry for the blurry pictures, the camera isn't working well.

These 3 colours are holographic. The one on the right looks orange but it's actually a sheer, holo, nude.

These aren't holo but extremely glittery. The blue sparkle looks nice over the blue on the right.

That's all of the pictures I have for today, but now it's time for a little question. I find that blogging only about nail polish is limiting my horizon. I was wondering if I should expand the blog to be nails, makeup, and perhaps a bit of fashion? You guys let me know :)

I'm Back!

So I'm not going to pretend to have an excuse for disappearing for two months. I'll tell you the truth, I have been extremely busy with school. Everything is so busy and stressful, and I needed a bit of a break from blogging. I have also been pretty sick with bronchitis, the flu and stuff like that. But I hope that I'll be able to make it up to you with some great posts.

I did buy all of the China Glaze Crackle polishes, but other than that I have been trying to slow down on the purchases. I am extremely happy to be back and blogging!

Rainbow Nail Art!

I absolutely love rainbows, so I decided that it would be my next post!
Here are the colours I used:
Red - Billie Chianti
Orange - Sally Hansen Sun Kissed
Yellow - Sally Hansen Mellow Yellow
Green - Billie Lime
Blue - Billie Blue

Hope you're having a great day :)

My First Tag - Stylish Blog Award

The wonderful Aurora from Aurora's Nails has tagged me with the Stylish Blogger award, which is my first tag! If you don't already check out her blog, you really should, so HERE is the link.

The rules were:
-Thank and link back to the person who tagged you.

So onto the facts....

1. I love Hello Kitty. Clothes, accessories, alarm clocks, I have it all.

2. I am a Nintendo nerd. I love all things Mario, Zelda, and Pokémon.

3. I love art, especially painting with acrylics and mixing the colours. But I hate sketching with pencils.

Santa brought me polishes!

So I know that the holidays are over, but I'm trying to empty out the folders on my computer, so I thought I'd show you the nail polishes I got for Christmas.

China Glaze: Tempest, Lemon Fizz, Black Diamond, Secret Periwinkle, Heart of Africa

Nameless Sally Girl mini polishes.

Since they don't sell Hard Candy polishes where I live, and this didn't have a label, I have no clue what this is called. It included the cute heart shape file shown below.

How cute!

Did you guys get any polishes from Santa :)
