Surprise! My Wedding Nails!

Yeah... so remember like a month and a half ago a bit ago when I mentioned I had one more Halloween manicure left to share and also had a big surprise? Well it's finally here!


Both taken in natural daylight.

I got married! YAY! This is the manicure I rocked for our Halloween wedding. I've got the something blue, ghosties to keep in the Halloween spirit, glitter, and romantic text... it's the perfect package! :D

I used the "make your own decals" method for this, which entails painting topcoat on a plastic baggie, tracing your design in polish (in this case, I did all the letters), cutting out the design, then adhering with topcoat. I added the hearts and ghosties using my dotting tools then added small smiles with a detail brush.

The wedding itself was performed at the local courthouse with just our families present. Sean & I have been dating since high school (7 years!), so it was just a matter of time before we actually got married. :P And we did it! The craziest part is that the next day we moved out into our own apartment, which explains the delay in posting. We've only just got officially settled into our routine and I finally found the motivation to post. Woohoo! So it'll be back to nails for a bit... up next is Thanksgiving!

Manicure Monday: Fresh Paint's Oatmeal Gives Me Mannequin Hands!

Happy Monday everyone! Have you ever had mannequin hands? This is what I think of every single time I end up painting my nails nude! :P I started off with one of the only nude polishes I own, then ended up mattifying the entire look for a more mannequin-esque look.



It's definitely a little creepy looking. But then again, I'm not that big on nude polishes. They either look too natural or too "off" in their attempt to look natural. Haha! Just too boring for me, I guess!

Flip/Flop February: Day 15

Hello! Today's choice for Flip/Flop February was between stamping or jelly sandwich. I've done a lot of stamping... but I've never done a jelly sandwich before! So I pulled out my one (just one!) jelly polish and gave this look a try. Apologies for the out of focus picture... it's the only one I took that showed the depth of my sandwich.




I'm not sure that I like this look. I feel like I should've done a layer of jelly, then glitter, then jelly, then glitter, then jelly. Instead I did jelly, jelly, jelly, glitter, jelly. Oh well... live and learn!

Colors Used: 
Colorama Espuma
Ooh La Lacquer Pink Wednesday
I used something else  but I can't remember what! >o<
