Stamping

So last month, I went to my homecoming dance and I decided to do my nails. I didn't want something too time-consuming and intricate but I didn't just want a color since I was wearing a black dress and black nails would be too boring. I came up with this:

I used China Glaze Passion with BM-225. I got so many compliments on it! It looks intricate but not over the top and time-consuming. I tend to go classy, not trashy to my homecomings but I might succumb to teenage influence and go with a short, tight dress and fit in next year. Depends on my mood.

Feather Frenzy

Feathers are so in right now. Honestly, I wasn't feeling the feather trend in the beginning but now I think it's so cutee. I did my manicure a while ago with China Glaze For Audrey and White Konad stamp with the BM-214 plate. It was my first try but stamping is HARDER than it seems. WAY harder. You can't even blink when doing this because if you do, the Konad polish will dry right away. It's crazy. I only use half of the image because I really couldn't get the whole thing to fit my nails, it was huge. But if you work fast enough, you can stamp the half and use the other half on another nail which is what I did.

Halloween

I did this manicure for Halloween. Honestly, it turned out pretty cool in my opinion. I just wish I had time everyday to do things like that. 

On my thumb, I used Wet n Wild Blue Moon and Konad White stamping polish and Bundle Monster stamping plate BM-223. Blue Moon was layered over black. It's such a pretty polish. I wasn't going to layer it over black but then I already painted my nail black and didn't feel like removing it. Too bad it chipped the fastest. 

On my index finger, it's just a simple black polish from WnW with WnW Sunny Side Up as the pumpkin. It's such a sheer polish that it didn't show up orange at all. I was so disappointed. The stamp is from the Bundle Monster BM-222 plate. 

On my middle finger, I used China Glaze Ruby Pumps over WnW Red Red and the ELF matte top coat. I don't like the top coat at all. It is so streaky and sometimes doesn't work at all. The stamp is from BM13. 
On my ring finger, I used China Glaze It's Alive from the Halloween 2011 collection. Plate: BM13
Pinky Finger: ELF Purple Dream and plate BM-209.


Overall, I really like this manicure. It took a while but I had some spare time.
