St. Patrick's Day Lucky Stamp

Hey Y'all! 
Today I have another St. Patrick's design for ya! I got the new Pure Ice Orange glitter polish for St. Patty's Day and I wanted to build a simple mani around it. 

Here's how: 

I started with an orange and green base of Pure Ice "Irish I Was Orange," and Zoya "Josie."

I started with the horseshoe image on this plate from uber chic. I used a gold polish for this (Fingerpaints "Figure Of Art")
Place the polish onto the image.

Then scrape it towards me with my creative shop scraper.

And pick up the image with my clear jelly stamper, in a semi rollin motion. 

Line it up over your nail and look down the center of it to help with placement. Then press it down onto your nail.

Always clean your stamper with a piece of tape. 

Then I used this lips image on this born pretty store plate, with the same green polish that was my base. 
Place the polish onto the image. 

Scrape it towards me.

And pick it up with my stamper in a semi rollin motion.

Line it up over your nail and look down the center for placement. Then press it onto your nail.

Use a small brush with acetone to clean up any polish on the skin.

Finish everythin off with your favorite top coat. I use Salon Perfect.

And that's it!

St. Patrick's Day Gradient

Hey Y'all!
It's March and that means time for St. Patrick's Day manicures!
Today I have a green gradient with a fun glitter topper!

Here's how:
I started with a mint green base of Salon Perfect "Mint Julep."

Then on a makeup sponge I added that same green onto half and then a darker green on the other (Zoya "Josie.")

Sponge it onto your nail with the mint green near the cuticle and dark green on the tip. Sponge up and down and side to side to help it all blend nicely. 

Repeat this for a few coats til you get the desired opacity. 

Use a small brush and acetone to clean up any polish on the skin. Or you can use a liquid latex barrier. 

Then I added 2 coats of a fun St. Patrick's Day glitter polish from Salon Perfect called "Shamrock Your Socks Off."

Finish everythin off with your favorite top coat. I use Salon Perfect.

And that's it!

Spring Bag Marble

Hey y'all! 
Today I have a simple peachy spring look for ya!
It's a ziplock baggie marble. 

Here's How:
I started wth an orange base of Sinful Colors "Orange Cream." 

Then you'll need a little zip lock bag. 

After the first coat was dry I started addin drops of the same color around the nail.

Next I added drops of a dark brown color from Morgan Taylor "Pumps or Cowboy Boots"

And last I added Color Club "East Austin." I accidentally dropped a big glop, you definitely don't need too. 

Then take the ziplock and put it over your nail and smush all the colors around together. 

You'll be left with somethin like this.

Use a small brush and acetone to cleanup any polish on the skin.

Finish everythin off with your favorite top coat. I use Salon Perfect.


And that's it!

Spring Pastel Dotticure

Hey Y'all! 
I feel like I haven't posted in forever! I have been so busy with Valentine's Day, I couldn't get too many videos mad, and now I'm just lacking so much inspiration. Luckily there's only a few more days til March and green mani's! 
So today I have a random spring pastel Dotticure for ya! 
I was inspired by a picture on Pinterest that had no watermark, so not sure who the owner is, but it was beautiful so I wanted to try it. 

Here's how: 
I started with a light pink base of Cuccio "Tuscan Temptress."

Then with a dotting tool and a mint polish (Pure Ice "Home Run") I added dots randomly around the nail.

Next I used a very light pink polish (Sinful Colors "Easy Going") and added dots filling in the spaces between and next to the mint dots. 

Then I went back in with the mint and added a couple more dots wherever I thought it was needed. 

Finish everythin off with your favorite top coat. I use Salon Perfect.


And that's it! Super simple!

Valentine Twine Dry Brush

Hey Y'all! 

Valentine's Day is now only a few days away! I might have one more design before my actual Valentine's Day nails, but I'm not sure yet. 
These are another dry brush design, but this time they're inspired by a twine background with a heart, that I saw on Pinterest. 

Here's How:
I started with a nude base of China Glaze "Don't Honk Your Horn." 

Next I'm usin a darker nude (Island Girl "Surfing Paradise") and wiping the brush off on the bottle as much as possible.

Then I'm going to sweep the polish brush across my nail until I get the desired coverage. 

I'm repeating this with a pink color. Pure Ice "Taupe Drawer." Wipe the brush off and sweep it across the nail.

And again with a dark brown (Pure Ice "Scandal"). Wipe the brush off and sweep across the nail. Do this one more lightly so you don't cover the whole nail in darkness.

Then I went back in with a little more pink to cover some of the dark brown, so it wouldn't be too harsh.

Next I went in with more of the first nude.

And finally I topped it all off with the China glaze base color.

Use a small brush with acetone to clean up any polish on the skin.

Then I went in with a detail brush and a red polish, Salon Perfect "Salsa Dance," and outlined a heart in the middle of my nail.

And filled it in completely.

Finish it all off with your favorite top coat. I use Salon Perfect. 

And that's it!

Hope y'all enjoyed this! I'm really happy with how these turned out!
