My Dress and My Nails

 Press Sample

August is a busy month for me. I am back to in-person work and prepping for the beginning of my semester. Plus, it's always a lag in swatching, since it's that in-between time of summer and fall collections. But I do have one fall collection being delivered today! Because of all of that, I basically just do nail art and only like once a week. I went to a wedding a few weekends ago, so here is my dress and my nails!



I took a close-up image of my dress to show you the colors I used. The dress was majority green and lots of variations of it so I chose the pink tones for my nails!



So I have a super bad habit of doing my nails and then a week later, taking pics when they are wrecked. So I tried to fix my nails for photos in 300 degree heat and well, meh. But I wanted to show you the concept of what this looked like because it was really pretty.


 
I only used two colors for this look. 
  • Morgan Taylor All American Beauty
  • Morgan Taylor All About the Pout 

I did three coats of All American Beauty and then dabbed on the pink. As I mentioned, I tried to clean up my nails for pictures, but I made a mess. But you get the idea. It was gorgeous when I originally did it haha...not as messy.




I did take pictures in the church while waiting for the ceremony to start. Not the best lighting but you get the idea! You can see how I pulled the pink from the flowers  I felt green nails would be way too busy plus I actually don't love bright full green nails (mostly use it for nail art).




So simple but so pretty and effective!

13 Days of Halloween: Secret BOO

Gambar
Press Sample Hello everyone! Today kicks off hopefully my 13 Days of Halloween nail art! Life is so hectic and I find I only do my nails once a week. A rare week, I do my nails twice. So the thought of 13 nail arts in one month sounded impossible. So this year, I’m doing some super quick and easy art! These might look very different from previous years with super intricate arts. In addition, these 13 days will include some look backs on my favorite Halloween arts from the last ten years! BOO! My brain came up with what I thought would be a super awesome idea. So I thought that a black with a black reflective would stand out and be like a secret message. I had a regular nail polish that looked similar to a reflective and I figured, let’s put them together and see. Believe it or not, I have two polishes called After Midnight and they basically look the same in the bottle but one is a reflective and one is not. So I figured if I layered them together, I would create a fun message. I di

Jessica Phenom But First, Coffee Nail Art Stamping

  Press Sample  I knew I had to do some coffee nail art the minute I got the But First, Coffee trio . Like really, how could I not? I loved the color palette and knew I wanted a light base. I had the perfect stamping plates, and although these are not stamping polishes, they did the job enough!   I had quite a few images with coffee patterns on it and went with something simple! Must Have Mocha is surprisingly sheer as a stamping polish despite the 2 coat coverage. But it did pop just enough off of Extra Foam Plz! to make it visible! I did some minimal reverse stamping with three of the nails. I wanted to incorporate Caramel Drizzles into the art some how. It is subtle, but I stamped the images and then painted them in with the shimmer polish. I think it adds that special touch! I added matte top coat to everything just because I felt it was more coffee-like.    COFFEE IS ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA! :) These are available now for $11.20 each. This is such a fun trio! I'll be back with thei
