Plum Gradient

I decided to do a gradient this time around although it is not my favourite technique - too messy!  However this one turned out really nice.

The colours I used are from Sally Hansen's Xtreme line. I like the consistency the polishes and the richness of the colours.  Here I blended Pep-Plum and Lacey Lilac.  I did not use a base colour before sponging on these.  Had no VNL issues.

Finished off this manicure with MoYou London Pro XL 10 plate using Konad Black polish and Seche Vite top coat.  Enjoy!!!

Lots of Love

Still no signs of warmer temps from this brutal Winter; however, I am glad Valentine's Day is upon us (not that I have ever celebrated it!) as it means that Spring is getting closer!

In this manicure I used Sally Hansen Xtreme Cherry Red for the thumb and index fingers, Misa Heaven White for the middle and ring fingers.

The pinky is textured with Jessica White Hot (Textured Matte). The white hearts are from Konad template M95 applied with Konad White polish, while the red hearts are from Bundle Monster template BM-317 applied with Sally Hansen Xtreme Cherry Red.  Topped off with Seche Vite - Fast Dry Top Coat.  Hope you like it!

Daisies for Winter....

Enough already with the freezing temperatures here in Ontario!  So here is my attempt at forcing the temps to rise and to hurry Spring 2014 along. 

 

For this manicure I used one of my favourite nude nail polishes is NYX Lavender, which was discontinued when they revamped their polish line.  However, I was lucky and purchased the last 5 bottles of this colour. 

I stamped with Konad White polish and Bundle Monster plate 016 (Daisies) - for a clean and simple look.  Hope you like it!

Red with White - Snowflakes

With all the snow that fell over the weekend and the freezing temperatures, I thought this manicure is quite fitting.  Hope you like it.



 

The snowflakes are BM-H02 plate and Konad white polish, while the red is L.A. Girl Cherries Jubilee.  The pinky finger has two coats of OPI Solitaire and the index and thumb are topped off with Sally Hansen Xtreme glitter (special edition jelly polish with no name or number).

Mellow Mood...

I wanted to do a soft manicure and came up with this, which I liked.  Wasn't in a stamping mood so the dotted accent seemed fitting.

In this combo I used:  Orly - Coffee Break and China Glaze - Seashell...

... The accent dots were done in China Glaze - Call of the Wild, which is the same colour used on the pinky finger.  Hope you like it!
