Hello blog fans.....

Well here we are once again. Another beautiful Fall Sunday. II have spent the day shooting with my awesome son-in-law Matt. Thanks Matt for inviting me. It was awesome.

So the Nail 'o the day simple. Of course is has to have a tiny bit of glitter but hey.  About two months ago, I tried some gel nail polish I saw on Amazon. I bought three colors and the base and top coat.  It costs $6.99 for a 10ml bottle. The base and top coat costs $10.99 for  the set. These are also 10 ml bottles. I found the colors are opaque and they last about 10 days. You can buy them in a single color, set of 4, 6 or 10.

This time around I purchased the set of 10. It costs $49.00.  Here is the link for the 10 piece set.

For this look, I used the base coat and cured for 60 seconds in a LED light. I used two coats of Aimeili Color 021. On my ring finger I used one coat of Aimelil Color 023. Both colors were cured 60 seconds each coat. Top coat is the same 60 seconds and "Boom." You are done. Wipe off the sticky coat with 99% Isopropyl Alcohol and there you have it. All 10 nailws done and totally dry in 10 minutes.

I like this brand. I plan to buy more. There is only one drawback. Since it is UV/LED gel, you cant tell what color it is without opening the bottle. And every bottle is pink.

I marked my base coat with tape. I'm working on some stickers but you have to0m cfu8re the poli8sh under the UV/LED light. It's a challenge.

If you try this look or another gel polish look, let me know.m Same thing if you try this brand.

Thank you 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...
