Week 8 - Corset Mani



Once again this year long challenge brings me face to face with yet another manicure I haven't performed. Even though I had never done a corset mani, I knew exactly what I was going to do. I styled this mani after my favorite corset (hubby's fav too)!

Light box




I used Sally Hansen Insta-dri Petal Pusher, Milani One Coat Glitter Blue Flash, free hand nail art with brush and Wet n Wild Black Creme, and stamped with Konad special polish in black and using m3 (small bow) and m71 (full nail design). I had a blast with this mani (even htough it didn't com out quite as I wanted).



If you are trying to figure out what is on the top of my middle nail, well it was SUPPOSED to be cleavage. Yup, I said cleavage. I have an ample supply of it normally and abundant supply when corseted but nail art wise, I ain't got S%!#! LOL




This mani is uber glittery and I feel I nailed (pun intended) the pattern of my corset pretty well but I definitely want a do over and will be trying this type of mani again to see if I can't perfect my technique a bit. Hope you enjoy!

P.S. If you noticed my destroyed cuticles, that's what happens when you play with polish, remover, do yard work, and forget to properly moisturize and perform hand care because you are too tired. It will take awhile to undo what 2 days without care did. =(

Day 12: STRIPES


For the 12th day of the 31 day challenge, I used Color Club Peppermint Twist (basically "Barbie" pink crème) the konaded a stripe design over the tips with black Konad special polish. I used part of a design from BM-209.





I don’t think this came out half bad considering I was stamping with an “assistant.” My assistant, of course, was my 2 year old daughter, “Love Bug.” And after helping mommy, wanted her own nails done. She chose Sinful Colors Let Me Go (a very sheer, pearl lavender almost duo-chrome – has a bit of blue sheen to it) and she wanted hearts so I “babynaded” her cute little nails with black Konad special polish using part of the heart design from m3 (and the small end of the stamper, LOL).
