#31DC2017: 4. Green

Hey gorgeous beings! How was your manic Monday? Did you wish it was Sunday? That is definitely my fun day. Yup, my “I don't have to run” day...Also, I bet I can tell you what you're humming at the moment! *shimmy shimmy shimmy*

Before I perfect the art of talking utter nonsense, let's get to today's prompt, shall we? It is going to be a ROLLERCOASTER RIDE so hang on to your seats, boys and girls!

4. Green

I started by laying down 2 coats of China Glaze Re-Fresh Mint as my base. I then tore off pieces of a make up sponge and sponged a broad area in the middle of the nail with OPI Jade Is The New Black. In the centre of the area I sponged in a bit of Nubar Greener for some sparkle. Lastly, I just added some loose gold glitter and sealed it all in with a good thick topcoat (Seche Vite FTW!)

Okay, so this was hella easy but I swear I will start pushing myself a bit more. I have been feeling like I've been taking these prompts a bit too easy so I am going to try and bring in some more detail and harder techniques. Let me emphasize the TRY though, not promising anything!

Lots of mad love...

#31DC2017: 3.Yellow

Lovelies! Lovelies with the lovely jubblies! It’s Sunday and everyone is gearing up for the new week so not going to blab too much today. Sometimes silence is good. Needed even! So let’s get to today’s nails for the #31DC2017, shall we?

3. Yellow

For my base I started with 3 coats of Color Club Endless Summer. On my ring and middle finger I then layer stamped using Mundo de Unas White, Mundo de Unas Black, Born Pretty Store plate BP-146 and a clear stamper. For the pinky and index finger I made decals using Mundo de Unas Black, Sinful Colors Snow Me White and Harunouta plate 18 (available from Born Pretty Store).

I did a mani with skulls in it yo! Of course I’m happy with it! Now…lets touch on this yellow. I don’t like 3 coat polishes! AT ALL! Especially if it’s a crème but…BUT…this yellow is so worth it! It is juicy sexy! And honestly, I think with a bit of careful applying it could be a 2 coat yellow polish. Doesn’t it just scream summer?

Lots of mad love...

#31DC2017: 2 .Orange

So we got past day one, people! Heck, it's the most I've blogged in over a year so I am pretty stoked, knowhatimsaying? #31DC2017 make you blog real good, guuuurl!

I'm going to jump straight into today's prompt because it's Saturday and let's be honest, you have better places to be, you social butterflies you! *cries alone in a corner*

2. Orange:

For my base I started out with 2 coats of Morgan Taylor Funny Business and then a coat of China Glaze Pick Me Up Purple. I then made stamping decals with Mundo De Unas White, OPI In My Back Pocket & Born Pretty Store plate BP-73.

I kinda love how the purple base makes the orange pop! And let me tell you, if you want good purples, whatever spectrum it may be, Morgan Taylor is where it is at! Morgan Taylor Funny Business...I love you! *motorboats all my purple polishes*

#31DC2017: Red....Yes, this is an actual post!

The door creaks open as she slowly enters the room. Dust dances in the sunbeams that break through the dirt stained windows, illuminating her hulking silhouette dragging itself across the floor. Like an injured animal she groans as she picks up the axe, trembling legs barely being able to stand but she uses determination as her drive. Suddenly, a glint of light catches the blade of the axe as she slams it into the door. “HERE’S THEA!”

Wow, so much drama! Can we all just calm the hell down? So I didn’t blog for a while? So I got distracted? So I…Oh my gosh, I missed you guys and my little space so much! Can we all group hug please? Besides, what better way of getting back into blogging by attempting the 31 Day challenge…again! Yeah, apparently I’m a masochist!

So it begins...again...

I really didn’t have much inspiration for today’s mani except that I knew I wanted to use teal with red. I am a sucker for this colour combo so this is what I came up with. I started out by laying down a coat of Color Club French Tip as my base. Using a nail art brush I placed random small blobs of OPI A Oui Bit Of Red, China Glaze Ruby Pumps and OPI Fly on my nails and then just filled in the pattern toward the outside of the nail, interchanging these colours.

I really actually like how this came out. This was honestly just a moment of having fun with the various colors. Time consuming, but fun!

Lots of mad love...

Rasta Zigzags...I think??

Hey sex-ba-boms! (20 points to you if you get that reference!) Do I seem a little bit more chirpy than last week?? Oh it is because I absolutely am! Between you and me, shark week came a knocking last week...yeah, so during that time life can seem to suck in general and I feel super emo! I even kinda had a small cry because I was a day or 2 late and my stomach was feeling uncomfortable. So I had this full on fight with myself that I don’t want to be pregnant but if I am I promise I won’t resent the baby and I’ll bring it up being awesome and geeky and and and...Needless to say, I wasn’t pregnant! Don’t get me wrong, I do want kids one day but I’m also smart enough to know me and my husband can’t afford it right now. Like not at all! So for now WHOOOO! I just wish my uterus would rather just send me a notification like “Hey! You’re not preggies! Look at you taking you birth control like a responsible little adult! Kudos dude! Totes laters till next month...hopefully! *high five*” 

So enough about that bit of TMI for today, let’s get to nails! I’ll be honest, there was absolutely no inspiration behind these nails and I just felt like using some brain searing neons and black. SO I DID EXACTLY THAT! #WINNING

I started out with a coat of Sinful Colors Snow Me White as my base color. When this was dry I added a coat of Nubar Palau Coral over one half of my index & pinky and China Glaze I’m With The Lifeguard over the other half. I then took a small piece that I tore off a makeup sponge and dapped WOW Nail Polish #393 down the middle. For my ring and middle finger I made a stamping decal using the above mentioned colors and Bundle Monster Stamping Plate BM-423.

Am I the only one feeling kind of a rasta vibe with this mani?? It is totally unintentional but hey, I’m not complaining! Also, my camera hates neons! Such a pity because this mani SCREAMED in real life AND I LOVED IT!

Lots of mad love...
