Collective Pink Wednesday!

Hey There!
So today I am returning to Pink Wednesday! I have painted my nails pink on several Wednesdays, but I just haven't gotten around to posting them.  So today I decided to post the best of the pink manis I have done lately.  Hope you enjoy!

Alrighty, so this design started with a base of OPI Flashbulb Fuchsia.  This is one of those colors that I didn't like at all when I bought it.  I thought it was too bright for my skin tone.  However, over the last month I realized that I really love this color!  Anyway, I used a dotting tool for the half moon of polka dots.  The polish I used was OPI Pedal Faster, Suzi!  Cute, simple, and pink!

Now this is the look I did for Valentines day, but I never got a chance to do a post about it.  Good thing Pink Wednesday exists!  Anyway, I used Pretty Please Pink Crush for the base of this one.  I used two coats, but one pretty much did the job.  For the lip prints I used Bundle Monster plate BM02 and Sally Hansen Insta-dri in Silver Sweep.  For the rose I used Bundle Monster BM14 and Pretty Please Preppy in Pink.  I thought this was a perfect Valentines day mani :)
I hope y'all enjoyed this post, and I highly encourage you to participate in Pink Wednesday!  Have a wonderful Wednesday!

Pink Wednesday Returns!

Hey There!
I am so glad to be posting again!  I have a pink Wednesday for you today.  It's been a long time since I did a pink Wednesday, and I can't wait to show you what I did!

To begin with I used OPI Japanese Rose Garden as a base color.  Then I cut strips out of a piece of tape to get the skinny stripes.  For the darker pink I used Pretty Please polish in Pink Crush.  I will do a review of this brand in a later post.  For the silver stripes I used my Kiss art polish.  I really enjoyed this because it is simple, easy, and super cute!  I like that it looks like it takes a ton of effort, but it really just takes a little time.  I hope you enjoyed this post, and I hope your Wednesday was wonderful!

Pink Wednesday: Frosty French

Hey everybody!
So today is Wednesday, and you know what that means: Pink time!  Today's post is another funky french, only this time it is a little more subtle than the last one.  These types of designs are growing on me :)

I started with OPI Pedal Faster, Suzi as a base color.  Then I used OPI Japanese Rose Garden for the french tips.  For the ring fingers I just dragged the brush diagonally across my nail to change up the design a little.  Then I used my kiss silver glitter to clean up the mistakes.  Then I finished up with Seche Vite top coat.  I hoped y'all liked this post, and have a fantastic rest of your week!  Also good luck to those of you who are AP testing this week and next!

Pink Wednesday: Girly and Glamorous!

Hey there!
Sorry I've been MIA lately. I've had a ton of schoolwork lately. Anyway, today is Wednesday, which means I'm wearing pink nail polish! Before I begin, I have two disclaimers. First, this post is from my phone, so the pictures will be last. Second, please excuse my ugly, short nails. My nails have been breaking like crazy this week. Anyway, on to the post. So I began with Opi "flashbulb fuscia". This was one of my first Opi polishes ever! It definitely only takes one coat to get a good solid color. Then I used my black Kiss nail art polish to draw a stripe on the outside half of my nails. Then I took a silver Kiss art polish to draw stripes surrounding the black stripe. This helps to clean up any mess you made with the black. Then I finished with one coat of seche vite. I hope y'all enjoyed this post, and have a wonderful Wednesday!

Pink Wednesday: funky French

Good morning!
Just a warning: I am posting this from my phone, so the quality may not be as good as usual. Anyway, I have decided to be a part of pink Wednesday. For those of you who don't know, the idea is that on Wednesdays I will wear pink nail polish and do a blog post of it. Now, I can't guarantee I will do this every Wednesday, but I will try! So for my first attempt at this, I started with OPI "strawberry margerita". Usually I would use two coats, but I just used one this time. For the tips I used Essie "braziliant". I didn't do this, but I would recommend using tape for this step to get a straight line if you don't have a steady hand. I probably should have used tape, but I like my French manicures to have a little bit of curve. Finally, I used Seche vite top coat.
So I hope you enjoyed this, and I hope you will join me in pink Wednesday! If you do, I would love to see a picture of it! Have a wonderful Wednesday!
