My nails, so far. Here’s what I’ve done. Buffed nails with a four-sided nail buffer. I got mine from the dollar store, honestly. I need to get a new one, because I’ve had it for a few months and you get what you pay for, but I love these things. Solid layer of the green - I used Wet n Wild “Sage in the City” because I love the sage green! I did two coats because I personally hate translucent base colors, but that’s just me. They look cute on other people but I don’t like them on me. About 1/3 of the way down, I used my second color - Sinful Colors “Gorgeous”, a lovely teal green. I have had my SC polishes since Valentine’s Day, but I rarely use them because they’re translucent and, as stated for step 2, I don’t particularly care for translucent nails. This multi-colored thing is still very new to me. Another 1/3 of the way down I used my third color - Sinful Colors “Love Nails”. Read explanation for step 3; it’s basically the same. I still have black that I’m trying to find a way to incorporate, but I haven’t decided yet what to do with it.

My nails, so far. Here’s what I’ve done.

  1. Buffed nails with a four-sided nail buffer. I got mine from the dollar store, honestly. I need to get a new one, because I’ve had it for a few months and you get what you pay for, but I love these things.
  2. Solid layer of the green - I used Wet n Wild “Sage in the City” because I love the sage green! I did two coats because I personally hate translucent base colors, but that’s just me. They look cute on other people but I don’t like them on me.
  3. About 1/3 of the way down, I used my second color - Sinful Colors “Gorgeous”, a lovely teal green. I have had my SC polishes since Valentine’s Day, but I rarely use them because they’re translucent and, as stated for step 2, I don’t particularly care for translucent nails. This multi-colored thing is still very new to me.
  4. Another 1/3 of the way down I used my third color - Sinful Colors “Love Nails”. Read explanation for step 3; it’s basically the same.

I still have black that I’m trying to find a way to incorporate, but I haven’t decided yet what to do with it.

The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole,but true beauty in a Woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she knows.

west-coast-fashion: Ocean nails :) This was pretty easy! Paint the lightest blue all over you nail (I used Blue Lagoon by Revlon) Once it’s dry put the medium shade of blue on a cosmetic sponge and dab it on to your nail, creating a shaded effect. (Pacific Blue by Sally Hansen)  Then put a darker shade of blue on a cosmetic sponge and dab it onto the nail blending it in with the medium shade of blue. ( Royal by Revlon) Oh my goodness! I think these are super cute. I think I’m going to try doing this to my nails…

Sometimes, all it takes to feel gorgeous is a fresh color of nail polish. Never fall victim to the myth that “not everyone can pull off the bright colors”. You’re beautiful! Let it show!
