Nail Art on Toes: Butterflies and Flowers

I actually have nail art on all my nails at the same time *gasp*! Are y'all as shocked as me? I've been really interested in nail art and getting better lately. So if you hate feet or are disgusted by them turn back now!

This is my first time using LEX Cosmetics polish even though I got them a LONG time ago for free from sneakpeeq. Note that this is in no way a review of the polish, I will only mention the generals that are important to every nail polisher :)

I used 2 coats of LEX Cosmetics polish in Lil Mama (again free from sneakpeeq not for a review!); pink, blue and purple acrylic paint that I mixed with white acrylic paint all by Apple Barrel (.57 cents each!); Tulip glitter I got from Hobby Lobby on clearance (see here) and the flowers are Kiss nail decals (see embellishment post here).

All I did was paint random little butterflies all over in different colors. They aren't perfect but I still think they are cute! I put a little top coat over a couple of the butterflies and brushed corresponding colored glitter over them which definitely added something but made them lose their definition lol. So I ended up just going over all the nails with Jordana Crystal Glitter. I freakin love that stuff! Just found out where to get it again and I was ecstatic! The answer is KMart if you don't know. I've had the same bottle for years and it's kinda yellowed and really goopy even with tons of polish thinner so you can understand why I love my new bottle so much. 

Lil Mama is a great formula though pretty expensive generally. It applied nicely and was a little shear with just one coat. In the bottle it's kind of got a silver metallic sheen but not on the nail. 

So what do you think? Do you do nail art on your toes? Let me know in the comments below!
As always, thanks for stopping by :)

Holo sparkleness!

I did my toes at work yesterday and thought I'd share :)

Zoya Trixie

One coat of Zoya Trixie (which is incredibly fantastic and somehow unused til now) and a couple coats of China Glaze Nova. I wish I could have gotten better pics for you guys but I'm still learning my new camera and it absolutely hates this pedi :( 

IDK why but sometimes when I upload pics they get messed up :(
My new ring from Sneak Peeq! Love it!

That's it for these toes, maybe I'll eventually be able to get a better pic! 
As always, thanks for stopping by :)

Try It On Tuesday: Toes

So for Try It On Tuesday this week I did my toes :) I used Fingerpaints Be A Pal-ette and LA Colors Color Craze in Glistening Purple. Can I just tell you how awesome Be A Pal-ette is? Its a gorgeous royal purple with a light pink shimmer. So pretty! 

Sorry for the bad pics and really bad clean-up lol. Trying to get all my nails done real quick before fireworks tonight. And I accidentally cut my big toe nail all weird :( Anywho there you have it! I love this combo and will definitely have to do it again lol. 
As always, thanks for stopping by :)

Toes

So if you weren't hanging around the Facebook page with me last night, I was doin my toes :) I decided to go with China Glaze's Dorothy Who? which I got the last time I went to Sally's. Can I just say I absolutely love love love this polish? Its got everything that appeals to me, blue and glitter. 

I stamped on what looks to me like one of those puffy dandelion things using MASH plate 17 and WnW White Tips. 


I also switched to doin collage type pictures since it saves on room. What do you think? Do you prefer multiple pictures or just the one collage picture?


As always, thanks for stopping by :)

Quick Post-Toes

I tend to feel the urge to blog much more frequently than I generally do but luckily for me I have stuff I don't have posted on here lol. SO from the archives these are my toes from last week. I do them much less than my fingers since as most nail painters know polish tends to stay on toes longer. If you don't like to look at feet I understand and I'm sorry but this is me and my blog so I will write what I like :)

Anyhow this is 2 coats of Wet N Wild white with the blue and purple stripes being the Stripe Rite striper polishes from Sally's. I stamped white flowers on using more WnW white though I'd have to check to see which plate I used lol. The little purple flowers are cute little embellishments that I got in an 8 pack from Dollar Tree and I love them sooooo much. 

I've been doing my own nails since I was about 13 or so though I didnt get into any real nail art kind of things until about a year and a half ago. And then I was really only doing it on my toes since I'm not very steady with my hands lol. In fact the mani I have on now is the first time Ive ever done tips without a guide. Its all a learning process and I love that there are so many talented ladies who share what they do so everyone can learn :) Quick post? Maybe not so much lol. Anywho do you do nail art on your toes? I'd love to see! As always thanks for stopping by :)
