Happy Monday!
It was Tennille’s turn to get her nails done today 🙂 I hope she’s not getting sick of Lincoln Park cause we’ve used it the last three times….
I love how LPAD applies in GelColor. I flooded a couple nails today and it was taking me forever to get it off the cuticles but usually it goes on flawlessly!
I did three coats of color then wiped off the sticky layer with alcohol and hand painted the gold designs with Essie Good As Gold. These would be super cute with …
My buddy is going on a sisters trip to New York City this weekend and I gotta admit I was really nervous about getting her nails just right! The Big Apple is a Big Deal! 🙂
I love what we came up with though…simple and chic…
We used CND Brisa Lite Smoothing Gel to add strength and then topped it off with 3-4 coats of Gelish Plum and Done. I hand painted the silver chevron stripes with CND Shellac Silver Chrome. I think it would have been super cute to do gray …
I love how these turned out for my gorgeous buddy Tennille! She wanted a Halloween look but not necessarily too “Halloweeny” 🙂
I used all OPI Gelcolors. The ring fingers are Alpine Snow and I did the skulls with a fine tip Sharpie. I think next time I might use black gelpolish or black polish with a fine striper brush.
The ombré nails are Suzi and the Seven Dusseldorfs with Lincoln Park After Dark on top. It was super easy to do too! I just did two coats of the …
My friend and client Jessica went to Las Vegas last weekend and needed some fun nails to accompany her! I love the results…and I thought it was fitting they were inspired by the awesome nail salon Polished Nails Las Vegas.

Here are the nails that we came up with–we used gel polish from Gelish and OPI. I hand painted the stripes and dots and used a metallic silver Sharpie as well for accent. I used silver studs on the pinkie and index fingers …
I got the chance to do my cute friend April’s nails today and I had so much fun chatting with her and coming up with these fun nails! She’s a hairstylist (an amazing hairstylist) and pretty much just said, “You’re the nail tech…take it away!” I showed her a few pics from Instagram and we both agreed on a vintage vibe that is perfect for this brisk fall weekend!
We used Gelish Black Shadow for the black nails and one coat of OPI GelColor Did You ‘Ear About Van Gogh …
I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to do some dreamcatcher nails because every time I see them on Instagram I love them! Maybe because they scared me just a little…there is a lot of little tiny lines and circles involved which is always tedious…but I had a feeling my buddy Tennille would love to sport some fancy hippie chic nails and I was right! 🙂
We used Lincoln Park After Dark in OPI GelColor and OPI Did You ‘Ear About Van Gogh in GelColor on her ring finger. …
I have been wanting to do some Aztec nails for a while and luckily my friend Jess was down with the idea when she came over for her nail appointment yesterday! I love how they turned out! I think this is a great look for transitioning into fall…we incorporated mint, grey, and coral…one of my favorite color schemes.
I know I say this every time…but I think these are my favorite nails I’ve ever done! It’s Jess’ birthday this weekend and she’s running the St. George Marathon next weekend so these …
Two of my favorite bloggers teamed up and the result was so amazing I decided to recreate a very small “rendition” of it on my nails 🙂 I absolutely am obsessed with home decor and I actually get a lot of my nail ideas from decorating color schemes and finishes…I think it’s important to find inspiration from all aspects of life in everything that we do!
Mandi from Vintage Revivals did a total room makeover for Cara from Maskcara. Not just any room either…Cara’s makeup room/office where she films her videos …
SunValleyTek sent me this UV light to try out and review and I can honestly report for the money it’s a great light and I would highly recommend it! They shipped it extremely quickly, Flynn was very nice to work with, and the light is actually really great quality! I’ve bought two other lights on Amazon in the past that were cheaply made and did not hold up but I can tell this light is going to hold up great. And it’s priced under $40 on Amazon!

I bet you’re wondering what the heck a recycled mani is…well when I did my Ikat Mani
I did the nail art over my existing gel polish mani with Striperite polish, which worked perfectly. Honestly, I am ready for a new set of nails after a few days…I think a week is the longest I’ve gone with the same color on my nails…and it was this mani here as a matter of fact 🙂 I just realized how dry my skin looks in that picture…obviously I haven’t been wearing my cleaning …
