Skittlette

Hey guys!

Today I have a skittlette featuring some saran wrap nail art to share with you!

For the manicure I started off with a neon red base of Cirque Colors Game Over on my pointer and thumb, a coral base of Essence Indian Summer on my middle and ring finger, and a gold shimmer base of Essie Getting Groovy on my pinky. On my middle and ring finger I used the three aforementioned polishes and some saran wrap to create the saran wrap design.

My camera can't even handle the neon! Here's a closer look!

It has been way too long since I last did a skittlette!

Saran Wrap

Hey guys!

Today I have a skittlette featuring the saran wrap technique to share with you!

For the manicure I started off with a purple base of Essie Shade On on my thumb and pointer, a white base of CND Cream Puff on my middle and ring finger, and a blue base of Barry M Damson on my pinky. Afterwards I dotted random blops of Essie Shade On, Barry M Damson and the red polish By K. Oy-Mak on my middle and ring finger and smeared it together with a piece of saran wrap.

Close-up!

I love the saran wrap technique (except for the clean up part)!

Twin Nails

Hey guys!

Today I have some twin nails that I did with the sweet Selina of @nailsbyselina inspired by the amazing Nicole of Young Wild and Polished to share with you!

For the manicure I started off with a nude base of OPI Don't Bossa Nova Me Around on my pinky, pointer, and thumb, and a silver holo glitter base of F.U.N Lacquer 24 Karat Diamond on my middle and ring finger. Afterwards I used a dotting tool and the polish black Essie Licorice to make the polka dots on my middle finger and mini chevron nail vinyls, saran wrap, OPI Don't Bossa Nova Me Around, and Essie Licorice to make the nail art on my ring finger.

I just love how these twin nails turned out!

April Nail Art Challenge: Saran Wrap

Hey guys!

Today it is time for another manicure for the April Nail Art Challenge with Fancy Friday!
The challenge today is saran wrap, and I made this green saran wrap manicure featuring black dots.

For the manicure I started off with a white base of OPI Alpine Snow on all my nails. Afterwards I used the brushes in the green Essie Mojito Madness and the light green Etude House GR701 to drop random blobs around the nails. Then I used the saran wrap to mix the polishes together. Lastly I made the black polka dots with a small dotting tool and black acrylic paint.

I love the saran wrap technique, but it is so messy!

Black Shatter

Hey guys!

Today I layered OPI Black Shatter over the white and gold saran wrap manicure from yesterday.
I really like the many layers and what they do to each other, especially the peak of golds behind the black shatter.

I got some really good pictures. The weather is just perfect for photographing today!

Gold Saran Wrap Comparison

Hey guys!

Today I made a manicure using the saran wrap technique.
The reason for me to make this manicure is because I am really lemming the Gold Leaf top coat by Dance Legend I ordered yesterday and I cannot wait for it to arrive!
Here you can see the nail polish top coat layered over Nicole by OPI Tink's in the Pink.

This is my first attempt to make a saran wrap manicure and also my first attempt to tame one of my many lemmings for polishes.

I started off by painting all my nails white with two thick coats of OPI Alpine Snow. Then I rolled a piece of cling film into a ball and randomly painted some gold nail polish on top of the ball, like so:

Then I quickly dabbed the side of the cling film ball with nail polish on onto my nails until I was happy with the amount of nail polish on the nail. I finished off with a layer of Seche Vite Dry Fast top coat. 

I know it is not quite the same as the Gold Leaf top coat, but I really dig this manicure! It is kind of awesome with a marble-like effect.
