#PPSAnailchallenge - Sugar Spun aka "Neon in the nuuuude!"

Hi there lovelies! Heck, it is Wednesday and I am posting my third post for the #PPSAnailchallenge so basically I am posting my first post for Week 2. Last week I posted both mani’s on the Sunday...I don’t know about you guys but in Thea’s book that is improvement! HELLA improvement! Can I pleeeeease get a whoop whoop??

Sugar Spun

You guys! I was actually excited about this prompt! It’s not a type of art I do a lot because let’s be honest, it’s pretty damn tedious. But I love the effect! And it’s actually relaxing. Also, whoever came up with technique...frak dude, respect! Talk about thinking out of the box...or bottle in this case. Anyhoo, so I also love nude polishes and neons together but I don’t think I’ve ever done a combo like that. So I thought, why not now?? So let’s get neony naked!

 

I started out by laying down 2 coats of Essence Color & Go Dare It Nude. When this was dry I made my strings using Tip Top Nail Chic Walking On Sunshine on all my fingers except for my ring finger. On my ring finger I simply added a stud that I colored in using Tip Top Nail Chic Walking On Sunshine.

You guys! Seriously?? Why the frak is it so hard to capture neons accurately?? It looked so epic in real life! I want to nude and neon everything now but dammit, I apparently lack decent camera skills. I shall conquer it though! LIKE A BOSS!

Lots of mad love...

#31DC2014 - Day 9: Rainbow Nails aka SO MUCH COLOR IN YOUR FACE!

Good morning lovelies! After today there is only one prompt left for the “Colors” section of the #31DC2014 people! Exciting stuff! But for today, let’s enjoy the colorful prompt of Rainbow Nails.

Day 9: Rainbow Nails
 
Today’s prompt was quite a bit of a head scratcher to me. Rainbow nails...how many things can you actually do with that? Yes, the color possibilities are probably endless but of course my boxed in human brain got stuck at rainbow. I definitely wanted a rainbow in there somewhere. And then it hit me! Well, two things hit me! 1. I’ve been dying to use my Lush Lacquer (now better known as Polish Me Silly) Freckles. And 2. I love meme’s. Grumpy cat, Overly Attached Girlfriend, Socially Awkward Penguin...you name it, I LOVE IT! Some of my favorite meme’s are the Rage Comics. They consist of a whole lot of awesomely badly drawn characters like Forever Alone Guy, Cereal Guy, Troll face and of course...PUKING RAINBOWS!

I started out by laying down 2 coats of Sinful Colors Snow Me White on all my nails. When this was dry I went in with a thin nail art brush and WOW Nail Polish #393 and painted my little guy in. To create the rainbow I used the thin nail art brush again, Tip Top Nail Chic Walking On Sunshine, Tip Top Nail Chic Jazz Berryblue, Tip Top Nail Chic Sexy Bikini, Tip Top Nail Chic Grape Dance and China Glaze I’m With The Lifeguard. To finish everything off, I added 2 coats of Lush Lacquer Freckles over my index finger and pinky.

YOU GUYS! Look at that neon glitter go! Isn’t Lush Lacquer Freckles just gorgeous?? I really liked how all of this came together. Yes, puking rainbows might be a little weird but I am a little weird and I love it!

Lots of mad love...

 

#31DC2014 - Day 3: Yellow Nails aka SUCH NEON! MUCH AMAZE!

Hiiiiiiiiii guyyyyyyys! Day 3...honestly, I can’t remember when last I posted this much in one week but I am not stopping now! Let’s get on to some crazy yellow goodness.

Day 3: Yellow Nails

Yellow isn’t really a color that is high up in my favourites list. In my whole collection of polishes I think I currently have 3 yellows but when I saw this prompt, I knew immediately which one I wanted to use. Not only was it one of my many untrieds, but it’s a neon! A sweltering face melting NEON! Yes please!

I started out by laying down 3 coats of Tip Top Nail Chic Walking On Sunshine on my pinky and index finger, and 2 coats of WOW Nail Polish #393 on my middle and ring finger. I then made a stamping decal with Bundle Monster plate BM-305, WOW Nail Polish #393, Tip Top Nail Chic Walking On Sunshine and Tip Top Nail Chic Grape Dance [TUTORIAL forstamping decals HERE] and layed them down over my ring and middle finger. To finish off the look, I made some of my gold studs black with WOW Nail Polish #393 and placed them on my pinky and index finger.

Of course my camera hates neons and completely spazzed out when I tried to photograph this mani, but you guys get the idea. The little lightning bolt patterns of BM-305 keeps making me want to yell out “Shazaaaaam!” and even though Captain Marvel (aka Shazam) possibly is my least favourite DC characters, that leaves me with happy fuzzy feels so I am going to take that as a WIN!

Lots of mad love...
