Sorry Charlie

Our spring show is You're A Good Man Charlie Brown, so I decided to do a few of the costumes on my nails! On my thumb I have Charlie Brown. To do this, I used a base of Seche Clear, then put a little circle reinforcement sticker for ring binders on the bottom of my nail to make sure the polish didn't go there, then I painted the whole nail with Nina Like Butta. After letting that dry I drew the squiggles on with Sally Hansen Black. On my pointer finger I have little Sally Brown. I used the reinforcements again to make the negative moon, then painted the nail  with Spa Ritual Swept Away and made dots with China Glaze White on White. For Lucy van Pelt, I couldn't find my royal blue polish, so I actually used Ultramarine Blue acrylic paint, again using the reinforcements, and the color is China Glaze White on White. My ring finger is Charles Schulz' signature confined in a black box sort of like a comic strip cell. I used China Glaze White on White and Sally Hansen Black. I freehanded the negative space on Peppermint Patty, my little finger, using Art Deco Bright Green and did the detail in Sally Hansen Black. I used Seche Vite top coat on all my nails, as always.

Super Kawaii

Kawaii Take 2! I absolutely love these. I was showing them off all day. I started with a base of Spa Ritual Delight, with the exception of my ring finger which I used Spa Ritual Swept Away. I created the purple ombre effect with Revlon Gumdrop. Each design was done with Sally Hansen Black.

I've Got Time On My Hands

I lied...I actually have hardly any time on my hands right now. I've been so sick lately. I'm sorry I haven't been posting. I meant for this blog to be daily, that starts today. Promise.

Anyway....COLORS!
For the digital clock on my thumb I used Nina Black as a base with Orly Haute Red for the numbers. On my index finger, it's sort of hard to tell, but it's a dripping clock a la Dali. For a base I used Revlon Iced spice. Then to make the clock I used Spa Ritual in Delight with a gold detail polish from Charlotte Russe, and in the background is Essie Little Brown Dress. My middle finger is a pretty straight forward analog clock with a base of China Glaze White on White and Sally Hansen black. My ring finger has a coo coo clock. Base of Spa Ritual Delight with house in Finger Paints Sketchy Character and Essie Little Brown Dress and roof in Sally Emerald. Lastly, my little finger is a grandfather clock with a base of Avon Glisten, clock in Essie Little Brown Dress, clock face in China Glaze White on White and pendulum in OPI Curry Up Don't Be Late.

Come On Barbie Let's Go Party

Today I decided to go for Barbie themed nails. I have the oldstyle barbie cameo on my thumb, for which I used Nina Black and China Glaze White on White. I used China Glaze White on White for the base of my index finger and Revlon Pinkish to write the Barbie logo. On my ring finger I used a base of Spa Ritual Swept Away and again used the China Glaze White on White. My ring finger took the longest. I used a base of Sally Hansen Sheer Lilac Gloss and topped that with two coats of Ulta Pink Princess. While these polishes were still wet, I applied small pink gems (available at any craft store). My little finger has a base of Revlon Pinkish with details in China Glaze White on White. Each finger was topped with Seche Vite.
