Pink Zebra Nails

Ok, so I was feeling a little inspired the other day and decided to try out some stupidly easy nail art.
I never really do anything more to my nails than just plain old polish, I leave the artsy masterpieces to the pros.
But after watching some tutorials on YT, I decided to try this one myself.



I found that it was super easy, but it does take some time (which is a downside because I'm impatient!).
I loved it so much that I ended up doing my toes as well, and those looked AWESOME!, sadly I won't show my huge feet in here... dignity issues LOL

I used Orly Basketcase, to give it a pink punky edge which I loved. And for the lines I just used Kiss Brush on nail art paint. Then I finished it up with Seche Vite topcoat. I guess I had to wait a little longer for the stripes to dry, because I ended up smudging it a little..still looked cute though!

Btw it lasted a good 6 days on my nails, that's why I'm really loving Seche Vite base and topcoat! That stuff is awesome, it doesn't compare at all to Sally's megashine!

Hope you like, let me know what you think.

NOTD Orly Purple Crush

Here is what's on my nails right now :)

Don't let the name fool you because this baby is more of a redish purple than what you might expect. It's kind of hard to get a good pic of the actual color, but this one is close enough.

I really like Orly nail polishes because they're easy to apply thanks to the long applicator and medium sized brush.It goes on very evenly and shiny, only 2 coats and you're good to go.
Hope you like!

Let the nail polish obsession begin...

I have always loved nail polish.

I remember when I was five and use to wear nail polish with multicolor glitter to kindergarden, yeah I was allowed and I loved it. Fast foward 19 years later and guess what?! I still love nail polish haha! I have a pretty decent collection of polishes but only recently have I discovered the wonders of higher end nail polishes, I'm not talking about the crazy expensive Chanel or YSL nail polishes, just plain and less expensive OPI, Orly and the infamous China Glaze.I'm not a professional manicurist or anything, I just love nail polish.

Here are some pics I took just to share something with you guys, I hope you like. And btw lets ignore my cuticles and the fact that I can't seem to paint inside the lines haha :)

I'm all about pink so is no wonder this is one of my favorite nail colors, it's called Basket Case (like the Greenday song that I also love). This color is almost exactly the same as the MAC Heatherette collection packaging, so if you like it I truly recommend :)

Here is my Heatherette inspired look...

This is what I used: Orly in Basket Case and Cover Girl Boundless Color in Disco Dazzle (405)


Hope you like it
