Memorial Day Nails

Happy Memorial Day! I decided to do some American Flag nails in honor of the holiday. I got a request to do these on my Instagram account and it is the first time I've ever done a request--not that I can remember getting any lol. For my thumb and index I used China Glaze First Mate with a coat of China Glaze Blue Year's Eve stamped using MASH 49 in Konad White. For my other 3 fingers I used China Glaze Hey Sailor with a coat of China Glaze Ring in the Red stamped using MASH 46 in Konad White. Hope everyone has a safe holiday!

Orange and Pink Gradient and Mash 42

Good morning readers! I was inspired by a mani that Rebecca did recently, and I wanted to try out something similar. I've also been seeing a lot of orange/pink gradients lately, but the one I loved the most was by Makeup Withdrawal. For this I used Zoya Arizona and Zoya Lara and then stamped using MASH 42 in Konad White. I just got my MASH plates and this was my first time using an image, but it worked perfectly and I had no issue transferring the image. Can't wait to play with my MASH plates more! If you're interested in purchasing them, they're available here and shipping is free for a limited time!

Pure Ice--Pool Party & Catwalk Crackle

Happy Friday! As of today I'm officially on my summer vacation! I have so many nail ideas I can't wait to get started, but first I want to get some stuff out of the vault that I never got around to. Today I have Pure Ice Pool Party and Pure Ice Catwalk (crackle). I was pretty surprised at how well the yellow crackle worked--one because I've never seen it before, and two because I thought it would be pretty sheer over blue, but it turned out nicely! These can be purchased from Bari Cosmetics.

Two coats of Pool Party, no topcoat.

Pool Party with Catwalk.
