I will admit, I am a little in love with this look and didn’t want to take it off to work on day 15 of the challenge. Especially since Jazz freaked out at a shadow and ripped my hand apart so it hurts to do any nail art. Day 14 of the challenge is flowers […]

Zigzag Stripe Nailart #31DC2016
Usually the novelty of challenges wears off around now but still going strong on #31DC2016. The challenge for day 12 is stripes and I decided to go with zigzag lines using my new favourite red polish with black as the contrasting colour. Starting with a base of two coats of Quo by Orly Freshly Cut, […]
Rainbow Nails – Day 9 #31DC2016
Day 9 of the 31 day nail challenge is rainbow nails. As pretty as they are, I hated this challenge, who wants to use 7+ polishes in a look. But I guess that is why it is a challenge. I decided on a rainbow gradient with butterflies from one of the newer square Born Pretty […]
Black & White Bird Themed Nails #31DC2016
Black and white is probably my favourite of the colour themes for the #31DC2016 challenge. I have wanted to use this bird themed plate for ages and since it always looks good in black and white manis, it seemed like the perfect time to try it out. I went for a different look on each […]
Violet Nails For Day 6 of #31DC2016
After much discussion of what colour violet really is, more blue or more pink and spreading all of my purple-ish polishes on the floor much to the confusion of my cats, and headed to wikipedia (because wiki answers everything) which says “Violet is the color of amethyst, lavender and beautyberries”. I have a Maybelline polish […]
KleanColor Rose Scented Double Stamped Heart Manicure
I recently posted a manicure with Pueen’s Fairytale Lover 02 plate and Quo by Orly’s Freshly Cut where Nichole from Bedlam Beauty requested I use the stamping image with the hearts. Since this is the image that first lead me to discovering the Love Box 02 set after seeing it from NailStamp4Fun on youtube, I […]
Back to School Chalkboard Equation Nails With Essence
One of the images I never thought I would use from my Pueen Love Box 02 set suddenly appealed to me for back to school nails. I never thought I would need a scientific equation nail stamp but loved the other images on the stamping plate, especially the plaid which I have used a few […]
Quo by Orly Freshly Cut Stamped Manicure
Quo by Orly Freshly Cut (stamped) – Shade I tend not to wear red polishes very often but Quo by Orly Freshly Cut caught my attention in the clearance racks at Shoppers Drug Mart. I can’t resist any Quo polishes when they are on clear-out for only $2 and grabbed a few different ones. Red is […]
Quo by Orly Rooftop Lounge #AlphabetNails
The alphabet of nail polish challenge is back this week and for R I chose Quo by Orly Color Amp’d in Rooftop Lounge. Color Amp’d polishes have flexible technology so they resist dings and scratches, great for when you want to stamp over them in a hurry. Rooftop Lounge is a gel finish bright teal […]
