Comic Talk

Hello everyone - looooong time no post. For that I do sincerely apologize! I have been doing so well after surgery that I figured that feeling of 'wellness' would just continue.

Wrong.

I hit a WALL this past.. Well, 10ish days. It has not been fun. All this amazing colour that I had (seriously, my eyes and cheeks and skin were all AMAZING looking, even without makeup) now I sort of look like a walking corpse. I would say zombie, but zombie are rad and I am not lately. I actually scared myself the other evening. I was washing my face and I swear my eyes were colourless and lifeless. I could go on and on about how terrible I have been feeling AND looking, but I'm here to discuss that.

A few posts back, Li Lian mentioned the website http://wah-nails.com/, so of course I had to check it out. They do some really fun nail art.. Most of which I find somewhat simple to replicate. I of course had to test out at least one of their designs asap.


Sorry the photo suuuucks! I really didn't want to stand around a whole bunch to try to get a decent shot. I think this particular design is a lot of fun. My sister did see some of the other photos from that site that I saved in my inspiration folder - she wants to test them out as well!! Oh, duh, the colours used are (from thumb to pinkie): OPI A Grape Fit, Essie Mint Candy Apple, CG Heli-Yum, CG Lemon Fizz & Orly BLANK because I cannot remember..

I keep meaning to post on here because I really do miss it AND all of you.. Just. So. Tired!

Anyways, just a quick update from moi! I hope everyone has had a good start to August and that it continues. I will try to post up again asap!

  • shortnails - Awe, thankies for checking up on me! I really do appreciate it! Like I said at the beginning of this post.. I felt pretty amazing for the first little bit, since then I have basically fallen apart. I am starting to monitor myself more.. Just so I won't have to slip into this 'funk' again!! Now I am off to catch up on your blog (:

isn't wah nails neat? they are simple designs that we can all do and it gives us great ideas. another website you might want to look at when you have time is http://wowwownails.com/gallery.html

they are only konad designs but still the color matching and layering is pretty inspirational

I hope you are feeling much much better now. I tagged you in my post but of course not need to do the tag (especially since you are feeling still quite weak) but I just wanted to let you know. =)

I saw that you have bad romance on your wish list. I have across the universe on mine. why is it so hard to get good polish to canada? ms. d. lippmann just won't ship to canada

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

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

Countdown to Halloween 2017: Gross Nails

Hey everyone! Not sure what else to call these.. other than gross.. these are the nails I imagine some sadistic swamp-dwelling mother of mutants to have.. yeah, that. I used: China Glaze Strong Adhesion Base Coat OPI Coca-Cola Red China Glaze Cranberry Splash KL Polish Snickerdoodle OPI Suzi - The First Lady of Nails OPI My Vampire Is Buff Orly Liquid Vinyl Sponge Dotting Tool Fake Nails These were rather fun to make.. but dangerous!
