Splatter Mani

Hello my gorgeous readers! I'm sure you have all seen splatter manis. I've never really wanted to try these simply because it looked hard to achieve.

Along with galaxy nails, and the string method (Which I decided to do; stay tuned for those within the next couple days)

However, they were actually pretty simple and fun! I used some bright colors which are perfect for summer! Enjoy!

Splish Splash goes Holo

Hello lovely ladies! The other day I swatched CG: Splish Splash. I loved it by itself but I wanted to make it even more beautiful!! So I added 2 coats of Layla: Mermaid Spell and stamped on a diamond! Enjoy!

*Today it is 105 outside! It's supposed to be like that the rest of the week and next! I'm going to hate having to go outside to take pictures!On the plus side, I'll be hitting Six Flags more often. Anyone  else having extreme heat??

Metallic Accents

Hey everyone! I hope you all are having a lovely week! For today, I created a mani using Kiss Metallic Accent Stickers provided by Kiss. They stuck on my nails perfectly and stayed on for 2 days!

I didn't know what to do with them or which ones to use but then I remembered this amazing post Jenni from Gold Speck Nails did and so I went with little pyramid accents and a nude base! Enjoy!

China Glaze- Splish Splash

Hey everyone! This is the 3rd polish from CG Summer Neon Collection. I really love all the polished I picked up, and I think I might go back to get the orange one!

Splish Splash is a bright blue with blue shimmers. This one doesn't really look neon but it definitely is bright. Again this dries matte and is opaque in 2 coats. Enjoy!!!
