The Way I Are

By Timbaland featuring Keri Hilson & D.O.E. I used to listen to this song everyday repeat x 5.. Now I still enjoy it, but in very small doses. But D.O.E's part always makes me chuckle!!

SORRY FOR THE ABSENCE!!

I don't really have an excuse other than the fact that I have been feeling tres blah and every look I have done with my nails has just been terribad. Embarrassingly so. I finally did this look and feel a sconch better about myself, haha!

I used a tutorial that JulieG713 posted HERE. I was a smidge disappointed when it was based off of a Rihanna look, but it is still amazing and I just had to copy it! JulieG posts some pretty nice nail looks. I also find that she doesn't try to confuse people when explaining things. (I have seriously watched thousands of YT videos, and some of the nail tutorials could be explained so much easier.. I understand them, but I could see someone trying to learn and just giving up all hope.. When they shouldn't! /endrant).

I think it is time for a new layout here.. I will have to work on that..

ALSO! This is pretty much breaking news.. OCTOBER IS A DAY AWAY! WOO! My favourite!! I love that October is pretty much Halloween themed through the whole month. Time to decorate, pick out pumpkin patterns, decide on a candy theme.. And of course.. nail art! Yay!!

I hope everyone had a good September, sorry I wasn't around too much this month!!

That mani is so cute!!! I personally am not looking forward to October because that means that winter is coming. It already snowed here today! :(

Snow already?! AYE! I would probably cry into my pillow!! October usually means snow action for us as well.. But hopefully it will hold off til November 1!!

It's about time! Love your manicure. I get what you mean about the YT videos. Some are really confusing. October is a fantastic month. It's also the start of the Greek festival at a Greek church. I've been going to visit there for years. Love to buy the food there. Plus all the money goes to the church. Love the Fall and the crisp air.

Canada Day - Saran Wrap Style

I had said the other day that I would be using the Saran Wrap method again soon.. And I really did mean soon. I figure it was the perfect way to celebrate Canada Day (nail-wise) without over-doing it.. I mean, I'm fairly patriotic as a rule, but sometimes sporting a Maple Leaf on my fingers isn't exactly my style.. ANYways.. See? The love is there with the red and white.. I know I said the next time I did the saran wrap method, I was going to try with three colours.. But, I think I will maybe leave that experiment for tomorrow - today is only about these two colours! So.. How I get to this? Well, allow me to show you. Start off with the colours of your choice - one as the base, and one as your.. distress-er? And some saran/cling wrap. I take two pieces and ball them up.. You could use more or less.. But I figure two hands, two, er, balls. Yikes. After your base has COMPLETELY DRIED (you can do these a couple of hours in advance, the night before, or even use some

Dry Marble Technique

Hey everyone! Yes.. Dry marble technique.. well.. technically I am water marbling, but allowing the polish to "dry" on the water.. then using it as a nail decal. Does that sound confusing? It might. But. I think this will be my next video. It is actually a lot of fun to do. And while I think this first attempt is grand, it could be better. I used: China Glaze Strong Adhesion Base Coat Sally Hansen Bubblegum Pink Sally Hansen  Babe Blue Sally Hansen Mellow Yellow Water Dotting Tool Bowl Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat I will probably film a video for this within the next week - so I will post up that gem soon. Or, there are probably a wealth online for you to look up in the mean time. Super fun technique without all the hassle of legit water marbling. See you all again soon!

Splatter Floral Nails

Hey everyone! Last night, after I did these nails and when I went to bed - I was quite pleased with my nails. When I woke up this morning, though, I wasn't overly crazy about them. I thought of a few things I could change so that I would really like them.. I am very tempted to take how I want them to look and recreate them before work.. I might just have to do it. Anyways! Really, there is nothing wrong with them.. I just sort of find them.. boring? Ah well! I used: Lime Crime Milky Ways China Glaze White On White OPI My Favourite Ornament China Glaze Highlight Of My Summer China Glaze Sweet Hook OPI Mod About You Formula X For Sephora Infatuated Orly Liquid Vinyl China Glaze Strong Adhesion Base Coat Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat I made the roses with a "main" colour and white, then I did the details with the "main" colour and black mixed together. Again, I don't dislike these bad boys.. I am just not amazed by them! Also.. did you
