Neon Chevrons

Goodmorning my pretties! Today I have some very bright nails to show you. I did these a couple weeks back and I wasn't planning on posting them, but I changed my mind. I wasn't completely happy with these due to the major shrinkage that I got when I applied SV topcoat. The China Glaze Summer Neons are kinda thick and take awhile to dry so you can imagine what happened after 2 coats of each color. When I only had the yellow and green on, my nails looked like little corn husks and I almost went in with a black nail art pen to finish the corn look lol. I used China Glaze Sun-Kissed, I'm with the Lifeguard, and Splish Splash.

A England Saint George, Princess Sabra, and Dragon Tape Mani

Happy Saturday! I actually didn't even realize it was Saturday until just a little while ago. Oh how I love summer! Today I have a simple tape mani that I did using three A England polishes. I don't know why, but I really just don't want to stamp over any of them. I feel like I'm going to ruin their beauty if I do. Hopefully I will be able to bring myself to try stamping over them sometime. That probably made me sound psycho lol. For this look, I used A England Saint George, Princess Sabra, and Dragon. They're all so beautiful and sparkly!

A England Saint George Swatch

Good morning lacquerheads! I don't usually wear a lot of polishes on their own, but for some reason, I feel like my A England polishes cannot be stamped over because they're so pretty and special. A England Saint George was one of my lemmings for the longest time, but I finally got it a couple weeks back and here it is! It's a very saturated scattered teal holo. I used 2 coats here. The only thing that sucked was that my brush in this one was pretty jacked up. I got six A England polishes last month and a few of them actually have messed up brushes so I'm not sure I'll be getting anymore. Does that happen to a lot of you ladies with this brand or did I just get unlucky?

China Glaze I'm with the Lifeguard and OPI Ogre the top Blue

Hey my polished pretties! Today have a simple striping tape mani from when I was playing with my China Glaze Summer Neons. Here I used China Glaze I'm with the Lifeguard, applied some striping tape, and then used OPI Ogre the top Blue. Creating this look was super easy! I think I'll do this again if I'm really lazy lol.
