Gradient Nails- Double Feature!

Again with the laziness- two different nails in the same post. Hope you don’t mind :)

I from the Sally Hansen HD line, I used DVD and Byte.

 

The next gradient is pitiful. I’m not a huge fan of the colors together. I should have put a little more thought into it.

I also used more polishes from the Sally Hansen HD line: Spectrum and Byte.

Daisy Nail Art- Double Feature!

To be honest, I just want to finish posting the remaining sets of nails, so I am just putting two similar nails in the same post.

I used OPI – Italian Love Affair for my base and acrylic paint for the flowers

Onto the next- the same design, but with different colors. Both sets were inspired by my Colorful Daisies Nails.

I used Jesse’s Girl – Midori for the base, and acrylic paint for the rest.

Orly–Mysterious Curse

I really don’t have much to say about this polish, other than I love it. Let the pictures speak for themselves…

After wearing this polish for a day, I decided to add one coat of L.A. Colors – Jewel Tone.

Fish Scales on False Nails

These nails are one of my least favorite nails I painted. I like fish scales, but became tired of painting them on 24 nails! These are the same as my Fish Scale Nails I posted when I began blogging.

I used e.l.f. – Mango Madness for the base, and used a gold Stripe Rite striper for the scales.

Revlon–Sweet Tart & Orange One Stroke Flowers

This was my first official attempt at one stroke. I’ve messed around with it before, but was never happy with it. This was the first time I’ve ever been happy enough to put a top coat on and keep it. They’re not perfection, but I’m happy :)

I used Revlon – Sweet Tart as my base, waited for it to dry, and then used orange and white acrylic paint to paint the flower petals.

Have a great day!
Edit: I forgot to mention that Sweet Tart stained my nails pretty badly, so I would recommend two coats of base coat!

Black and White Polka Dot Nails

Ever since the 31 Day Challenge, I’ve felt a bit more obligated to  post on a more normal basis. Of course, it’s not always practical to post every time I paint my nails. With that said, I have quite a few pictures left in my files. Some are from a while ago. Anyway, today’s post is black and white polka dot nails I painted the same time as the giraffe nails from my previous post.

As you can tell, the sun clearly didn’t want to work with me the day I took pictures of these.
