Indigo Sponged Nails

I finally got around to painting my nails something other than just a solid colour.  I also don't get to paint my nails too often, unless i have a few days off because I work in a deli. So I'll have to take this off in a couple days but oh well.

I started with a base of Joe - Iris, then sponged on some Joe - Ink, and finished it off with a bit of sponging on the very tip in Creative - Silver Anniversary. I quite liked how this turned out. And I for once managed not to chip any of them right after doing them. =)

Till next time, Thanks for reading =)

Indigo Ink

As you could tell from my last post, my nails were very chipped, and I didn't feel like waiting till Friday to do my nails. And since I got new polish, I decided to make them match my toe nails somewhat. I used the colour 'INK' from Joe. In this picture, and when first looking at it, it looks more purple, than blue. I would really call it indigo.

Once I put it on my nails, I realized it was way more blue, than purple. But still a nice colour.

One Coat

Two Coats

I liked this colour so much, I almost left my nails just one solid colour. But I ended up adding just a little something to my thumbs - A couple silver stripes:

 I used the Revlon Calcium Gel Nail Hardener as a Base coat, and Nicole by OPI Topcoat.

Chipped Nail Polish & Tiger Stripes

On Sunday I decided to redo the polish on my toe nails. I had nail art stickers on the big toes, and I had a very hard time getting them off. In fact their is still a little bit of one left on my nail. After I painted over it I came up with the idea that I could have filed it off, but oh well, next time.

I bought some new nail polishes from Superstore, 3 bottles of Joe brand. The one in the middle caught my eye, it actually looks quite purple in the bottle, but really it is more blue(indigo I guess). Since I bought new polishes I decided to use all 3 of the colours in a nail design.

White, Ink, Jet

I went with the 'Ink' as a base coat, then used 'White' for a tip. The black I used was Kiss Nail Art Black.

The stripes didn't quite end up like I was wanting them to. So after looking at some pics of tiger stripe nails, I decided to practice on my finger nails since they were insanely chipped anyways.

I like the look of these stripes better, I made them too fat on my toe nails.

Well, till next time-

Butterfly, flower, grass and sky Nail Art

I did this nail design on Friday. I was stumped for an idea, so I phoned my 8yr old sister, asked her what I should paint on my nails. She told me i should do a violet butterfly(violet, not purple lol), flying through the grass, with a red flower. So this is what I got from her idea: Left Hand (The butterfly is more purple than that) Right Hand (Slightly blurry, but you can see the shine) Base coat-Essie Grow Faster Light green: Santee-Vikini Green Dark Green: Icing-Envy Dark Purple: Rimmel 60 Seconds-Night Before Lighter purple: Sally Hansen HD-Cyber Red: Rimmel 60 Seconds-Red Carpet Top Coat: Nicole by OPI Thnx for Reading
