Strawberries and bananas and limes......

Oh my!!

If I recall correctly, in my last post I talked about keeping the fimo fruit on my finger because I liked it so much. Or maybe I just thought it. either way, that lasted one whole week.
I did manage to change to the neon colors I originally purchased. I discovered that if I used my Pro-Fx Nail Concealer, it would cover enough so the neon colors would "pop." Sadly black and white polish is the bane of my existence. I do not like working with them. I actually think white is worse. Anyway, here you go.

Naked nails...

Neon nails...

For this look, I used Salon Perfect Copacabana Girl (orangy-coral) and Honey Dew, Honey Don't (green). With the Pro-Fx I only had to use two coats of the neon colors.

I like this look but I am a fickle woman when it comes to nail polish. Someone asked me how many times a week I did my nails. The answer"At least twice." You have to keep life exciting.

I thought I would get at least three looks out of the fimo fruit but alas, I could only do two.

Talis est vita.

Thanks for stopping by. BTW per usual I buy all of my own stuff. No help for this girl.

Another sunny Saunday

And hotter then Hell. When it's already 75 degrees at 7:30 in the morning, you know it's going to be hot. Too freaking hot. So, I'm nice and cool indoors, doing my nails...and fighting off a migraine. I saw today's idea on Pinterest. Here's the link. https://www.pinterest.com/pin/394979829801950580/ These are so pretty. It looks like the white is 3-D but I didn't have supplies to do that. So, per usual, I improvised. Here we go... Base coat as always. I used French manicure guides to mark where I wanted the polish to end. Wait for it....Yep, you are so right,! Amazon. I used Essie Loot the Booty for the blue. This polish has just a hit of super fine shimmer in it. For the white, I used Mundo de Unas nail stamping polish. You should find it here. http://www.mundodeunas.com/ For the teeny dots, I used a dotting (Amazon) and L.A. Girl Color Pop White On. I bought mine at Rite-Aid but my store doesn't have it any longer. Top coat - Sa

Soft kitty, warm kitty, little ball of fur.......

Happy kitty, sleepy kitty, purr, purr purr. If you watch the Big Bang Theory, you know where this comes from. I don't. But my daughter does. When I saw this polish on the Super Nails Etsy site, I had to get it for her. Me, being a cat lover, I had to get one for myself as well. Here is the link. https://www.etsy.com/shop/supernails This is a polish that has a sheer pink base. It is full of pink, grey and white tiny spots. It's not glitter, because it doesn't sparkle. The think that made me want to buy it is that it has white, pink and grey......kitty heads in it. I thought it was really cute. Let it begin: Base coat...check. Pro-Fx nail Concealer in Light/Medium. I don't know if I mentioned it but it come is Medium/Dark as well. One coat of this. Polish...check. If you aren't familiar with glitter type polish, it's applied differently than regular polish. For me, the first coat is the base coat for the color. each following coat that I put on, I am pl

Happy Mother's Day.

Greetings: I hope all of the Mother's have a blessed day. Children are amazing. I have seven of my own and many of my children's friends that I claim as my own. I bought some new polish on Thursday. I bought a dark pink, a nice blue, a sand color and a sparkly fairy dust color. The blue reminded me of my Mom's blue eyes. I lost her in 2003. It doesn't get any easier. It's just life. I miss her terribly. She was very special. Let's get the show on the road. First, a base coat. Your choice. I used the Pro-Fx Nail Concealer in Light Medium. I used one coat to create a smooth surface. I chose Pure Ice Shine Rain & Shine. Thins is a nice cornflower blue. Two coats. For the glitter I used Glitter Lambs Million Dollar Gradient. I love this color. It's gold, gold and more gold. It's a "bam"in your face gold. With glitter polish, the first Coat you need to "place" more then "paint" it on. Th
