Konad Poka dot bow nails

Green and white stripes

I did three coats of Rimmel Rags to Riches. It was somewhat opaque so it requires three goes. After I used Kiss nail art white becsue of its really thin brush to make the lines really quickly. The Rimmel is part of the Lasting pro finish line and so far I am impressed. It is the start of gardening season and for the last 8 days it has taken the abuse of digging around in the garden without gloves. It does say up to 10 days and I  think so far that it would last the 10 days but I get bored easily and will change tonight or tomorrow before the 10 day mark.

Organizing my nail polish

So with 3 boxes and almost 100 polishes I finally sat down and made my life a bit easier. I sorted my boxes out  to organize a bit but I took a brush and painted the top of each bottle with a touch the lacquer so that I can easily grab the color I'm look for rather than dumping everything out or spending forever pulling each one out.

Green and Yellow Half moon

More half moon nails. I have been hand drawing all of my circles so they are not entirely even but I have been getting better at it. I love the yellow color from OPI. It has been on clearance at Ulta for over a month and each time I contemplated it and am happy I gave in and bought this color.

Carpet inspired Half moon

So we just got off a cruise and while we were on board I saw this carpet and it inspired the nails below.

Water Marble

This is my 5th attempt at water marbling. It turns out for me half the time. I guess practice makes perfect so I should practice this more but there are a few steps involved and I think it is kind of messy.This would be worth it if you did not change you nails color as often as I do. I used three colors. Sally Hansen Kook A Mango, Sally Hansen Barracuda and Ulta Snow white.

Hello Kitty with Konad music notes

I love hello Kitty. I used OPI Neolin Park after Dark as the base. I thought that this was a dark purple but it was basically black with purple tints in the sun. After I used Konad plate # M73 with Kello Kitty plate B87 with White Konad special polish.

Hand drawn blue hearts

Sally Hansen Kook A Mango base with China Glaze Secret Peri-Wink-le hearts with black outline all hand drawn with dotting tool.

Nail polish haul from mom

My mother and I spent the day together and she asked me about why I change my nail polish all the time. She still didnt get it but she was nice and got me all this nail polish and a dotting brush.

Upside down

I painted two coats of Sally Hansen 13 Celeb City then used Konad plate M83 for the overlay with Konad special top coat.
