Greetings All!!

Hello again friends:

Here is my polish of the fortnight. If you are unsure what that means, its fourteen days. It's been about that long or possibly longer since my last post.

Nails are growing nicely. Yea!!! And I'm getting back in the swing of painting my nails regularly.
The fortnight nails are fairly basic and neutral. Something fall-ish or Autumn-ish. Either way my lame computer can't figure how to auto correct. Speaking of auto correct, I sent my man a text and it auto corrected the name to Dr. Satan. Ghoulish I know but strangely all at the same time. Well, in the words of the immortal friends across the pond..............Tally ho. I started, per usual with a base coat. Actually that's a fib. I started with a coat of E-Z Flow Bond-It-On. I followed with a coat of Super Nail Pro Gel Base Coat and one coat of Super Nail Pro Gel Top Coat. I have been doing this since I took off the acrylic. My nails are growing fairly quickly but its the tips are really thin.  After that I used two coats of Orly Faint of Heart. For added thickness I put on one coat of Nutri Nail Flex-Shield Nail Hardener. Here's the look.





I love the Greige color of the Faint of Heart polish but I thought it needed something....a little panache perhaps.  On my thumb, index and pinkie nail I used barely one brush of Crows Toes Umm, No...he went to the Pawn Shop. This is an awesome rose gold, teal and pale pink glitter.

For the ring and flip off finger I used Mundo de Unas Copper with the Pueen Stamping Plates 24-BL, plate number 85. I topped the manicure with INM Out The Door. And Voila!!, there you have it.
Per usual, I bought all of these marvelous item with my own money.

I purchased the Mundo de Unas from LLarowe but she doesn't sell it anymore. Try www.mundodeunas.com.

The Pueen stamping plates I bought from Amazon. The Orly polish, purchased that from ebay.

I hope you enjoyed this look.

Thanks for stopping by.

A woman is helpless only when her nail polish is drying......

My daughter gave me a sign that says just that as a gift. She is so right. I can cook anything I choose, change the oil in a car, change a tire and a hundred other things I learned along the way. Mess with me when my polish is drying, you are going to be in trouble. \ Seriously. Painting nail is an art, even if you are putting on one color. It's tricky,it takes practice and its frustrating as Hell if you have to start over. Be patient. Let a woman get her nails dry and everything is awesome.  Fortunately my kids aren't little anymore and then fend for themselves most of the time. Other times it's like this "Mom, Mooooom, I've cut my carotid artery! I'm bleeding!!"  Yes dear, I'll be right there. Let my nail polish dry. Seriously, it's never that severe. Funny though. On with the polish at hand.... I really like the Pro-Fx Nail Concealer. It makes a nice smooth base to work with. I use one coat. It dries fast which is a bonus. Who really...

Say hello to my little friends.......

Hello little friends...... Greetings fans.  Here is my polish of the week. First off, I would like to thank Piggie Luv for the idea. I saw a post on Pinterest and had to attempt to recreate it. I thought it was really cute and it turned out to be really easy to do. \ Without further hesitation, here is  my creation. Base coat of your choice of course.  Always a base coat. I used Orly Goth on all my nails. It's obviously black but it dose have a tiny bit of shimmer to it. This is just one coat.  Then I made little balls of lines with white acrylic paint. Any white acrylic art paint will do. You can also use white polish. On My pinkies, I used China Glaze Heli-yum. This is a bright neon pinky/red color with a cream finish. Ring fingers I used China Glaze Metro Pollen-Tin ( a dark yellow cream) and Square Hue Beethoven Straat (lime green cream).  Middle fingers was China Glaze Nasty, a bright berry cream.  Pointers, I used China Glaze Bahamian Escape...

Helloo Baaaaby.....

Those are the words of the immortal Big Bopper aka J. P. Richardson who died in a plane crash along with Buddy Holly and Richie Valens, February 3rd, 1959. Truly a great tragedy for the world. Haven't a clue what I'm talking about, look it up. My last post I was struggling to get my nails back in shape. Sadly, they would grow a bit longer than my fingertip and then peel. I couldn't have a Nail Art Blog without nails!! Well now I do. Let's check it out.  Here we are... I decided on this color because it's Spring in my neck of the woods. These are really simple, I think anyone could do them. These are PolyGel. Not a gel, not an acrylic. You do have to cure then in an LED/UV light but you could do them with regular polish and some nail art supplies. The pinky and thumb nail have gold nail foil on them. The ring finger has some glitter and a gold tone shield. The middle finger has some pearls and rhinestones attached. The index finger is my favorite. I starte...
