Another simple nail air.  A french manicure with random white flowers.  These pictures were taken a couple days after I applied the poslish.  As you can see…some areas are chipping.  Also, sorry for the crusty looking cuticles.

What I used:

  1. Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Nail Hardener for a Basecoat 1 coat
  2. Zoya polish (color – Loretta) 2 coat
  3. Konad white polish with Fauxnad plate #BM02
  4. Poshe for a topcoat 1 coat

Sorry guys…it’s been a while since I’ve posted.  I’m not sure why but the days seems so much shorter now a days and I could never find time to send out a post.  I now have a bunch of pictures piling up waiting to be posted.  Hope you enjoy them.

I wanted something simple.  So I picked a light pink and did a simple manicure.  And to add a small touch an added a small flower to the ring fingers.

What I used:

  1. Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Nail Hardener for a Basecoat 1 coat
  2. Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure polish (#160 – Shall We Dance) 2 coat
  3. Konad white polish with either a Fauxnad or Gcool plates (I’m not sure why but I can locate the image anymore so I can’t give you the exact plate number)
  4. Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Nail Hardener for a topcoat 1 coat

 

At the end I tried using the Sally Hansen Cuticle Treatment.  (Name: Quick Care Cuticle Treatment)  It has a very sweet smell to it.  I’m not sure if this really works because my cuticles is aways still so dry.  It’s also very oily so you can’t really do anything after you apply it onto your cuticle nail area.  I believe it cost me around $9 bucks.  Since I’m not that pleased with this product, I don’t think I’ll buy this product again.

Zoya Polish & A Weekend Full of Mini Manicures

Tried my first Zoya polish.  Maya!  It’s a very pretty color…a bright coral pink .  I find the polish thin though.  I used two thick coats.  The polish also didn’t last very long.  The polish didn’t chip but the tips of my nails did start rubbing and coming off.

I apologize…these pictures were taken indoors and with my cellular camera…so the colors are a little off and fuzzy.  Looks very orange in the pictures above right?

This one here (one above) was taken out doors and as you can tell the color is again a different shade.  This time it’s more pink.  I used a Fauxnad stamp, a mermaid.  I thought it look pretty cute.  I stamp one on each thumb nail.

Over the weekend we celebrated my neice’s birthday and the girls wanted manicures. I set up a small stand and started painting their nails.  Here are some pictures below:

The girls were so excited and everyone had a blast.  They had such cute little nails.  It was hard to find images that fit but I made it work.  Look at the outcome below.  Everyone wanted Hello Kitty thumbs.  One girl chose to have all flowers on the rest of the nails while the other one random images.

I don’t remember the exact name of the polishes I used.  All I can say is that I used China Glazes, white Konad polish, OPI glitter polish, and Sally Hansen clear coat.

Can’t wait for my next kids birthday party again so I can do more nails.  :)
