Floral Chevrons

Another new Zoya Summer polish is Jessica. Its a bluish medium purple. It was a little patchy on the first coat but second gave it full opacity and smoothed out the ridges. 

The chevrons are from UberChic's Got Chevrons plate and stamped with MoYou Londons Periwinkle. 

The flowers are from Maniology M019 and done with MoYou White Knight. 

Glisten and Glow top coat for the super shiny finish.

Neon Dry Brush (Matte)

You can check out my original post of these with a glossy top coat here. I added a coat of Essie matte about you which I feel like almost tones down the neon colors a bit.

I hope you all have a wonderful day!

Neon Dry Brush (Glossy)

Two coats of Opi Alpine Snow as my base coat. I used a thin layer of Out of the door top coat to help speed up drying time. Once completely dry I dry brushed Pipe Dream Polish's all in and high roller. In case you couldn't tell I am in love with these colors. They are so opaque and bright. I want a million back ups.

I used Mundo de Unas black with plate BM 201 to stamp on the chevrons. To avoid smearing I waited a bit longer than usual before applying top coat. For this look I used Seche Vite.

A TNPC Inspired Skittle

The wonderfully talented Kelli from The Nail Polish Challenge posted this amazing look in the past few days and I knew I just had to try it. I didn't want to copy her exactly so I changed it up to make it my own. Her look that I drew inspiration from is this chevron mani. I went with one glitter accent nail and two solid colored ones instead.

Sadly I am still learning to use the nail vinyls without flooding my cuticles. Somehow I am happier with how my right hand came out then my left. Go figure!

I feel like the chevrons are crisper on this hand. I am looking for a new tripod so taking good photos of my right hand are a bit tricky at the moment.

Soft Nautical Nails

So for day 28 of the Nail art May challenge the theme is nautical. I actually decided to be a little early doing these as today is memorial day as well. I didn't want to do the traditional colors seeing as I hate red nail polish. It's such a pain to remove. So I used Color Club's Look, Don't Tusk as my base color and the blue is their In De-Nile while the pink is Je'Aime. Whole thing is finished off with Glisten & Glow Hk Girl topcoat.

Chevron Tutorial with Nail Vinyls

I recently ordered a set of the chevrons from Nail Vinyls and I could not wait to try them out. I did have a problem with the first time I used on my nail. I am not sure if it was user error or possibly an issue with my base coat and color. I started out using Orly's Bonder Basecoat before adding on two coats of Color Club's Eternal Beauty which is this gorgeous purple holo polish.

Next I used tweezers to apply two of the vinyls to my ring finger.

I went in with Sally Hansen's Instadry in Grape Race with one thick coat and while the polish was still wet I removed the strips.

This was the results of my first attempt.

I next went on to my thumb and had much better results.I redid my ring finger after finishing my right hand. Once the polish was dry I went in with a generous coat of Glisten & Glow's HK Girl Topcoat to seal in my design. Overall I am really happy with how these came out. I like the subtle color variation between the holo polish and the grape race. I still need more practice with the vinyls but I think for my first try they came out pretty good.

All the polishes I used.
