NAILLINKUP - Love/Hate

Hi, guys! Today I have my mani for the first Nail Art Ideas Linkup (N. A. I. L.) February theme - Love/Hate. The idea behind this theme was sort of "opposites attract".

I started with a base of Bliss Polish White Hot on all my nails. I then applied some zigzag nail vinyls and got the black edges using Sally Hansen Insta-dri Black to Black. On my accent nail I applied a heart decal that I made using my DRK Nails stamping mat and Stached Polish Love Language.

I was trying for more of a true black/white contrast, but because I suck at placing vinyls on my nails, there's less black than white. I really need to use my mat for all things nail vinyls from now on because it's so much easier and they come out so much better. I think this is a fun little look nonetheless - I don't love it, but I don't hate it, either!  :)

Thanks so much for looking and check out the other Love/Hate manis, too!

Mardi Gras Mani

Hi, guys! I've got a quick post tonight of the nails I wore today for Mardi Gras!

I started with a base of Bliss Polish She's A Winner (my favorite gold polish) and topped it with China Glaze Glitter All The Way. The glitters are a perfect mix of gold, purple, green, and red. Simple, yet festive!

Thanks for looking!

Wear Red Day

Hi, guys! Yesterday was National Wear Red Day to support Go Red for Women. Wear Red Day is held annually to help raise awareness about heart disease, which is the number one killer of women.

The red I wore is Potion Polish Vixen and it is soooo pretty! I added a couple of hearts using nail vinyls and Cameo Colors Lacquers The Adoption Before Christmas. This is a shimmery gold polish with red flakies and was part of a holiday duo with Polish 'M to raise money for pit bull rescues.

Thanks so much for looking!
