Howlite

These were a lot of work, but well worth it. They are not close visually to the reference I used but I love them regardless. Howlite, or as some may know it "White turquoise" is a really beautiful stone.

Soft Water-less Marble

I find it so weird trying to type on my laptop since my work computer is completely different.

Also, it sucks that I missed last week, both LGBTQ pride AND Canada Day. I didn't get a chance to since my new furbaby wanted to play with my brushes.

Here's a simple and easy one:

July/07/2013

A super easy water-less marble, better known as "needle-dragging" except I used a brush in place of a needle.

I used "You Callin' Me a Lyre" by OPI as a base, with "Fairy Dust" (China Glaze), "Disco Ball" (Sally Hansen) and "French White Creme" (Wet n' Wild) for this.

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Beetlejuice!

The last of my 5 Halloween manis. And definitely one of my all-time faves.

Oct/24/2012 to Oct/28/2012

I did these last week, but haven't had much time to post anything or do my basic editing stuff.

Anyways, I reversed the colours on my right hand. Look below for the list of colours I used:

"Lickety-Split Lime" Sally Hansen

"Red Carpet" Sally Hansen

"Flying Dragon (Neon)" China Glaze

"Black Creme" and "French White Creme" by Wet n' Wild

"Disco Nights" Covergirl

The Dark Knight

My older brother and I were practically raised on Sesame Street and Batman. So it's no wonder that I'm a fan of the recent Dark Knight movies. Since the final in the trilogy is out on Friday, I felt the need to don some serious Batman Pride.

July/16/2012 Whole Hand

 My design is based off of the Mimobot USB keys for Batman. Which is why it's not quite so Dark Knight-esque.

Index to Pinky: Batman, Catwoman, Joker, Robin.

 I used "Silver Sweep" by Sally Hansen to create the metal outline for Catwoman's goggles. The base colour nail polishes I used were "Touch of Mauve" by Revlon (pinky), "French White Creme" and "Black Creme" by Wet n' Wild for the rest of my fingers.

Thumb close up.

I used just regular acrylic paints to do all these aside from the polishes stated above. I hope you enjoyed this manicure, and if you go see the final Dark Knight movie, tell me what you thought of it!

Have a good week!
