Rainbow Sherbet

Hey guys! Here today with another ice cream themed mani :) The two dippin dots inspired manis I did (here and here) seemed to be well liked, so this time I did it in one of my favorite ice cream flavors! Rainbow sherbet! So this is a super yummy nails full of orange, raspberry, and lime polka dots!

No base color here, just the dots. The pink is Finger Paints pop rock pink, the green is Color Club twiggie, and the orange is Finger Paints circus peanuts. Just using a dotting tool I randomly putting dots everywhere until my nails were full. Easy peasy, but a little bit time consuming.

So tell me guys, what are your favorite flavors of ice cream?



What do you guys think? Ignore the fuzzies on my fingers that I didn't notice until after the pics, lol stupid cotton balls!

Until next time! Happy painting!

Spring Butterflies

Hey guys! Hope everyone had a great Easter! Now that Easter is over, I'm going to try and keep doing spring themed nails. What's more spring than starting to see butterflies on all of the blooming flowers? We've had quite a few little ones around here, so I decided to try my hand at them :)

I started with three coats of OPI sanderella, damn I didn't realize how shear it is! I did the bodies and antennae of the butterflies in WnW ink well, then did the wings with OPI austin-tatious turquoise, and added a few dots with the light purple Barbie Joe Fresh polish.



What do you guys think?

Until next time! Happy painting!

Lite Brite!!

Hey guys! Here today with what I'm going to call a very unconventional post! Warning, these nails are NOT practical by any means lol. What am I talking about you ask? Well let me tell you! Most of you know that I love to bake, cupcakes are my thing, my kitchen is decorated in them etc. Well my favorite type of sprinkles are the sugar crystal ones, and I have one that is multi-colored. It ALWAYS makes me think about the Lite Brites I had as a kid! Why I'm not really sure, so I was thinking, holy crap I need to put these on my nails! And I did :)

There isn't much explanation here, I used a clear coat and while it was still wet dipped my fingers into the sprinkles one by one. They moved around pretty easily at first, and stuck a bit after the clear coat dried. It was still super easy to get them off, hence why it's not practical. But it sure does look neat!



What do you guys think? Am I loosing my mind or does it look like Lite Brite pieces?

Until next time! Happy painting!
