I love Gradients!


Gradients are cool. I love them, you love them, my boyfriend loves them. It's all good!
I actually planned to reverse these prints. I wanted the tiger/cheetah print on the orange/peach hand and the dots on the blue and purple hand. But I got distracted, and this is what happened. I think I like this way better.


So here's purple gradient tiger print, and blue gradient pastel cheetah print.


Here's just big white dots on an orange/peach gradient. And a plain accent nail.

That's all for now<3

I Spotted a Half-Moon!

  Another hot new thing is half-moons!  You know them, they're like reversed french-tips.  They're really simple to do!  All you need is nail polish and those binder hole reinforcement stickers!
  I think a chic twist on them is adding polka dots, which I did.

They're pretty easy, and they look cute too! ^-^

Just put one of those stickers (I cute them in half, so I use less) down on the last part of your nail, wherever you want the half moon to be, then use your nail polish over it.

I added black polka dots with a dotting tool, but any dotting "device" will work.
I also outlined the half moon with my silver striper.
Two coats of any good topcoat and you're done!

If you're really good, you can always freehand the half-moons, but I chose to use the reinforcement stickers, simply because they produce nice, round, shapes.
 That's all for today(:
