Gradient Challenge: Day 5 & 6

Hey everyone! I can't believe tomorrow will be the last day of the challenge Kelly (Nailpocalypse) and I are doing!

 I was not able to post yesterday since the power went out. Have any of you been having horrible storms?

So for Day 5: Watermarble, I tried like 3 times and I couldn't get the polish to spread. So I gave up on the third time. Excuse my messy cuticles, I sat there for 10 minutes trying to remove all the excess polish but it wouldn't come off. So here it is, definitely not my best work!

*If you missed Kelly's water marble, don't forget to check it out!



-China Glaze: Frostbite
-Sally Hansen: Mint Sorbet

For day 6: Any Color, I decided to do my favorite color combo for gradients! Yellow, orange, and pink. I think they go so well together! Enjoy!

* Check out Kelly's awesome gradient for Day 6

KKCenterHk Review: 3D Nail Seal

Hey everyone! For today I'll be reviewing another product that KKCenterHk sent me!

I chose these adorable hello kitty glitter 3D nail seals which in my opinion are just like nail stickers! Enjoy!

*Discount code for 10% off KKCenterHK purchase: NailAddict93
*Link to 3D Nail Seal: Hello Kitty






-China Glaze: Splish Splash
-Revlon: Whimsical
-The Color Workshop: Sheer Purple w/ Holo Glitter
-3D Nail Seal
-Sally Hansen Insta-Dri

My thoughts:
-Thinnest nail sticker I've used
-Super easy to work w/ and place
-No air bubbles
-They don't curl up/lift once top coat is applied
-I love that you can barely notice there is a nail sticker there!
-Slight Defect: They are supposed to be glow in the dark, however mine did not glow. I do not mind  though because they are still so adorable!

Overall great product and great quality! :)

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??

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!!!

Rainbow Gradient

Hey everyone! For today, I chose to do an animal print with a rainbow gradient! I'm not sure whether I like it, i feel like the pink/orange gradient doesn't go well with the other colors.

I'm really liking gradients right now! They are super easy and i love using as many colors as I can in a mani! Enjoy!
