#31DC2018 – Yellow | Nail Art

Nothing to disclose.

I like the idea of doing dots throughout the month. Dotticures have always been my favorite designs! I did want to do some sugar-spins but I might wait until after the challenge to throw those into the mix!

I used an old Sephora by OPI favorite on my ring finger. After years of resurrecting it with polish thinner it seems that this will be the polish’s last ride. The formula is beyond repair. Let’s take a moment of silence for the loss of this absolutely gorgeous color (and brand)….

What do you think of my yellow dots for today’s 31 Day Challenge prompt? Let me know in the comments!

What with full time work and all, I just haven’t had the energy to do my nails almost all summer! However, a couple of days ago I just felt the call and I had to do something…anything…on my nails.

A quick fan brush and a few dots and wham, bam, boom – nail art! Rather, arthirtis-friendly nail art! Enjoy and don’t forget to…

Decorating the Robin’s Egg || Nail Art

Products provided for honest review. Opinions are my own.

Spring screams the birth of new life, plants, and birds. And this year, the plummage on said birds seems so much more vibrant. Anyways, this look was inspired by the beautiful blue Robin’s egg.

I used the next Born Pretty Store stamping polish and a new to me stamping plate from the same company. I have to say, I honestly didn’t expect much from the polish because it looked rather sheer in the bottle. I was pleasantly surprised to see how opaque it was, especially over this blue!

Enjoy!
