Nail Reveiw: OPI Liquid Sand

Ok so I wanted to do something different and do a nail polish review! Hope you like it!

My friend got this nail polish from her Glossybox package. It's from OPI Liquid Sand by Mariah Carey "Can't let you go" This one is a glittery purple color (purple has been my favorite color lately :D)

This new polish is suppossed to have a sand-like texture when it dries out. At fist I was a little grossed out by this. I'm not really a fan of textured polish ei: caviar nails (it just looks creepy). But I wanted to try something new so I tried it. It first, It looks like any other nail polish that you put on. But then when it dries you can totally see the sandy texture form.

Suprisingly, I love it! It's not creppy looking like the Caviar nails and it looks totally cool! I had to put on like three coats so that the polish shows more. I also didn't top this one with a top coat because the sand effect goes away. But, if you want you can put a top coat. :)

One thing I have to say about this is that I wish they have  non-glittery nail polish colors. I think using solid colors would bring out the sandy effect even better. But with that said, overall I love this polish and totally recommend it to you guys. If you want an effortless but cool nails this is a great polish to use.






Check out their site here! They're a little pricey for nail polishes (I'd usually spend at most $2 for nail polishes. LOL :D), but if you got extra bucks then by all mean buy this. :)

How to: Pink and Gold Hearts

Hello guys long time no...blog :) So just in time for Valentine's Day, I created a perfect nail art tutorial. This was so easy to make and super fun I hope you guys love it.

 Make sure you prep you're tools!! I almost forgot the scissors!! :S lol Forget the sponge I was going to do an ombe but decided against it.

 I used a hot pink polish (NYC Long Wearing polish in 109 "Pink Promenade Creme") on my ring finger and used a milky colored polish on the rest of the nails (Wet n Wild megalast pollish in 203B "2% Milk"). Let dry completely!!




Whoa! @ tutorials in one?! WHAAAAA!! :D

How to make a heart stencil

1. I used those tapes with a matte coating cuz they're less sticky...but whatever you have it's all good... :D

2. I would usually bad the tape on the back of my hand to remove excess glue.

 3. Now fold the tape in half and cut a heart. Remember when you were in kindergarden and when you wanted to make a perfect heart you'd cut out half to the heart on the folded part....ohhh i miss kindergarden better than college that's fo' sure. ;P

 4. Now would ya look at that beaut!

















So now on to the nail art...

Now tape the stencil to the nail. and paint over with a glittery polish (I used Julep polish in "Oscar") This polish was a small fine glitters which is good using big glitters would mess up the shape. Anywho... Put 1 to 2 coats and slowly peel off the tape. Peel off while it's still wet.

And there ya have it folks! a perfect heart <3

You can do this on just the ring finger and leave the rest bare... But, the ever dramatic me, I wanted it to all my nails..lol



And here you are, a Valentine nail art tutorial....Till next time <3


Quick Update:
