TTDIHALC - Day 28 - Match OOTD

Hey everyone!

Well.. here it is.. the prompt that actually gives me anxiety! Why? Well.. I am an advocate of making sure I do not do my nails to match my outfits.. which is never really hard, so to make it match, on purpose.. merrr! BUT! I kept my outfit suuuuper simple (which is why I didn't photograph my full outfit (seriously, black leggings, black cardigan, black tank top.. boring!) and made my nails match my scarf.. that I am obsessed with.


Ugh. This scarf is my life! I got it fairly recently at Aldo.. I had this one in my mitts, then I spotted another one, and asked my BFF which one.. and she was about to hide them behind her back, I got nervous, and told her to give this one back immediately, haha. It is GINORMOUS and suuuuper warm. I love it. Anyways. I figured.. why not do my nails to match that and toss on some red lips too? Yup, done.

Also, can we please see how pale I actually am via my hand? I can add some colour to zee face with contouring/blush.. but my hands.. dead giveaways. Jerks!

Anyways.. I used:
  • China Glaze With Love
  • Orly Liquid Vinyl
  • Little brush

I did little lines very sloppily, but I liked that.. and, when I was out running errands.. I did get my nails matching my scarf comments. Hated it.. because I would get that look like 'really...?' and I was like 'yup.. gotta go...' so that is that!

Next post is the last one for this months worth of challenges.. Silver.. ooooh!!!

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!

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
