This Reminds Me Of My Best Friend

Hey everyone!

I am not sure if I am just a really strange person.. I mean, ok, I know I am - but maybe this has happened to someone else: does your mani ever remind you of a person in your life? or just a person in general? This particular mani happened to remind me of my best friend. I still have not pinpointed as to why I felt this way.. buuut.. it happened!

Anyways. The best of this whole situation.. when I sent her a text to tell her, she wasn't like 'ew, weirdo' or 'freak' or any other strange label.. though I would have accept them as compliments, but I digress.. RIGHT! Ok, no, she said 'that is so endearing'. Ah. She gets me! And this is why I have loved her since she first spoke to me in kindergarten (I was the new kid in class..) - and we have been talking ever since. Man. Gord, if you're reading this: you're the bee's knees, and the cat's pajamas!



I just adore this combo. I used:


I could never choose just one polish as my favourite - that is basically impossible - but, Load is definitely in my tops! I just adore it.. right down to its freaky fun name!

Then top it with some gold and rose gold/bronze shard glitter activity? Take my money!! Oh, right, they already have.. well.. this is awkward.

How about a photo of Load all on its own? Guh. I am not worthy!


Siiiigh. Well. That is all for today! See you all again real soon.

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
