I don't take it too seriously, and neither should you. ^_~Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12516739864380217932noreply@blogger.comBlogger332125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5554855413434111499.post-50013839558529290842014-11-21T06:00:00.000-06:002014-11-21T06:00:00.934-06:00Forget Me Nots in FallLast week I showed you little blue flowers on a nude background. This week, another manicure done with Forget-Me-Nots, on a burgundy background. Of course, last week's was done in April, and this manicure was done in August, which may have had a bearing on the base color chosen!<br />

The blue is definitely Color Club Take Me To Your Chateau, and the yellow looks to be Sally Girl. Banana. My first thought, looking at the base color, is that it is Rimmel Burgundy Flirt, but looking at the swatches online, Burgundy Flirt looks brighter red than this. Now I'm curious and I'm going to make a note to myself to look through my stash when I get home today and find out which polish I used here. ^_^<br />

However, the flowers don't look anything like bluebells to me, so I disagree! They're closer to Forget-Me-Nots or Baby Blue Eyes, I would think. Except I put white stripes on some of the petals and a black center, which doesn't quite match either of those. Whatever they may be, I think they came out pretty!<br />

I know I used a base of NYC Fashion Safari, but other than that I'm really not sure which polishes I used. This manicure was done back in April, so your guess is probably as good as mine. I think that green might be Sinful Colors Exotic Green, but I'd have to go through my stash to be sure.<br />

It wasn't my intention to be team-supportive when I painted my nails with this, I'm quite sure. ^_^ I don't think the Razorbacks would care for rhinestones and glitter, really.<br />

This is one of those mani's where I wiggled my fingers off and on throughout the time I wore it, just to enjoy the sparkle and shimmer as the light played across my nails. Just check out this out-of-focus glow!<br />

Oops, wait, that will have to be another day, because this is the obligatory Halloween manicure. ^_^ Actually, I did this mani last week. As I write this post, I have no idea what I will have on my nails for my anniversary. Probably just plain black, as the kids have me dressing up as Death this year. My kids will be <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ngj9bXui9EQ" target="_blank">Ren & Lin dressed as Black Cats of Halloween</a>. I am apparently officially *old* now, because I thought that this would be an extremely obscure costume...but apparently anyone into anime would know what this is. I was chatting with the clerk at the fabric store when I bought the material to make their shorts and cloaks, and she knew exactly what I meant when I told her. But then, she and her friends are going as the Teen Titans this Halloween. :)<br />
<br />
Anyway, the manicure!<br />

Obviously the index and middle fingers are meant to portray candy corn. The remaining three are not <i>strictly</i> Halloween scenes. They're just sunset with tree and bird/bat silhouettes. I didn't even paint any gravestones! And yet, because of the time of year, one immediately interprets the flying beasties as bats rather than birds.<br />

I was really happy with the trees on my thumb. Not so much the one on my pinkie - I was trying for a spreading tree, like an oak, rather than the tall skinny ones like on the thumb - but it just came out blobby, I think. I started with a base coat of Pure Ice Superstar! which is my current white polish. The candy corn was done with Primary Beauty Neon Yellow and Wet N Wild The Clock Strikes Orange, though I touched up the yellow ends with Sally Girl Banana later, as my index fingernail broke and the polish chipped on the middle nail before I could get pictures (it was raining a lot when I had these nails.)<br />

<br />
The sunset was done with a gradient of Barielle Jordana's Skinny Jeans, Broadway O! Jessica, and The Clock Strikes Orange, with the ground and silhouettes painted in Sinful Shine Dark Room, which is my current black polish. I didn't take any pictures of my right hand because it was just plain bad. The thumb smudged at some point and while sometimes I can draw decently left-handed, this manicure was not one of those times. :P<br />

It was glorious springtime, flowers blooming, and I felt like polka dots. I have no idea why, but I went with it! Instead of roses, I added strawberries for a fresh fruity flavor. :) This nail art design is officially called a "skittlette", and I even went and looked up the source of the name just to share with you! Marta from <a href="http://www.chitchatnails.com/2013/06/12/skittlette-how-to-dress-your-nails/" target="_blank">ChitChat Nails</a> gave the following definition:<br />
<br />
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">
<em style="background-color: white;"><strong>skitĀ·tleĀ·tte</strong>:</em></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><em>Not quite a full skittles look, a skittlette manicure is one with at least two different accent nails. Pick any formation/order you wish, but for a true skittlette at least two nails need to be the same (the others can all be different) OR two pairs of identical nails and a different nail.</em></span></div>
<span style="background-color: white;"><em>For those of you who like math/equations. A skittlette can be any of the following:</em></span><span style="background-color: white;">AABBC, AAABC, AABCD</span><span style="background-color: white;"><em>(in any order on your nails so that AAABC=ABCAA=AACBA)</em></span><br />
<br />
<br />
So as I have two nails that are white with red polka-dots, and the remainder are different, this is a strawberry skittlette!<br />

The red, white, and yellow are all Sinful Shine: Devious, Wisp, and Bananappeal, respectively. The green is Sinful Colors Exotic Green, and for a bit of change-up I used Zoya Chloe on my index fingers over the Devious. I don't really remember why I decided to do that. It looks kind of out of place looking back on it, but it was pretty! I do love looking at sparkles on my fingertips over the course of the day, and color-changing flakes are always the bomb.<br />

Co-worker L named this one All Things Fifties because she said it reminded her of aprons with strawberries and polka dot skirts from the time period.<br />

It looks like I have Pocketful of Posies and Mint Julep, which were not sold in the same 2-bottle package. But yay! I like them. I don't remember what pastel purple I used, but if you ask, I'll look through my stash and let you know.<br />

I have no idea why L decided to name this manicure "Drops of Bunny", but hey, I'm rolling with it anyway. The only thing I would likely come up with instead is "triangles and dots" or something similarly lame.<br />
<br />
My inspiration, in much bolder colors than my chosen pastels, was done by <a href="http://www.fiercemakeupandnails.com/p/blog-page.html" target="_blank">Nory of Fierce Makeup and Nails</a>:<br />

I just had the urge to do red flowers on black, really, and this is what my brain came up with. Pretty sure the black I used is Sinful Shine Dark Room, but the rest of them? If you really want to know, I'll dig through my stash and narrow them down, but I sure don't remember just from looking at the pictures! :)<br />

I did the flowers in white first, and then drew the red on it, and then the white lines. I used a dotting tool and some black to do the centers, but I dug into the polish just a bit to mix the red and black. It makes for a dark center without defined edges, which I tend to like for flowers.<br />

I was really trying to work on the size of my dots. I've admired other people doing a spray of dots, where they start off larger and steadily get small. I did okay with the middle finger on the left hand, and the ring finger of the right hand, but the rest of the time they came out just as blobby as I'm used to. But hey, that's what practice is for! I'm <i>improving, </i>which is really the best I can hope for.<br />

There's not a whole lot to say about this manicure. It's plain and simple stripes, but it was a fun look! I have no idea why I think of warp speed when I look at it, but there you go. My co-worker L named is Stripes at Sunset. :)<br />
<br />
The base color is Nabi Holographic Purple (yeah, that's the only name on the bottle!) and while I know the name of the black I used is Sinful Shine Dark Room, I don't remember the name of the blue, though it also was Sinful Shine, which shouldn't make it too hard to google the name, come to think of it... Ta da! It's Alfresco.<br />

This is a <i>really</i> old manicure. I couldn't find the pictures for it for a while, and when they finally showed back up on my computer, I was well into the I-don't-wanna-post phase. But hey, I actually have the names of all the polishes I used!!</div>

The white base was done in Milani Whitest White. The red dots on the thumb are done in China Glaze Salsa, and the glitter they're dotted with is Pure Joy. Orange is brought to you by Wet N Wild, The Clock Strikes Orange, and glitter-fied with Linderella's Cauldron Drippings. The middle fingers used Sinful Colors Exotic Green and Green Ocean, while the ring fingers are done in China Glaze Frostbite topped with Blackheart Royally Screwed. Last, but not least, the pinkies are dotted with Wet N Wild Who Is Ultra Violet and topped with dots of Max Factor Fantasy Fire. Phew, that's quite a list!<br />

I didn't take pictures of the right hand, as it looked nearly identical to the left hand. Dotting tools balance the skill, or lack thereof, between the abilities of the dominant and non-dominant hands! I did take a handful of different pictures, at different angles and focus to show the pretty glitters as best I could.<br />

I did mine in green, as yellow is <i>not</i> a good color for me. I'm still working on my ability with fine lines, but I did one of my better jobs with this one!<br />

Either way, I really <i>really</i> liked this one! It was even prettier on my fingers than it looks in the pictures. I liked just wiggling them around and watching the light play on the green glitter.<br />

The base color is Barielle Aura Angora, and the black I used is Sinful Shine Dark Room, but I'm not sure what I used for the green glitter. I have several of those I might have chosen from. It could have been Zoya Ivanka or Nubar Greener, just off the top of my head. Give me a holler if you want to know the whole list (somewhere between 3-5, I'm thinking) of polishes I have that it might have been.<br />

Now, I am the first to admit that while I'm a fairly good technician when it comes to creative/artistic things, I am <i>not</i> actually <i>creative</i>. Most of my best manicures are copied from someone else - I can't come up with a pretty and aesthetically balanced design if my life depended on it. And this mani is no exception. The amazing Liloo did these two manicures that I shamelessly copied from:<br />

Aren't they amazing?! They both link to her blog, since I can't find the individual posts they came from, but I really enjoy her manicure designs. She does tiny fine lines MUCH better than I can, but I was still happy with my results.<br />

Honestly, I had some stickers that I wanted to use in this manicure, but they absolutely <i>refused</i> to curl properly to fit on my nails. So I took the exact same sections that I had cut for my nails, and I freehand drew them! Bwahahaha, I have defeated you, evil stickers!<br />

Seriously, though, I was really happy with this manicure and I hated when I had to take it off. I had a list written in this draft of polishes, but it was clearly 100% wrong about the colors used (for example, it listed Wet N Wild Kaleidoscope, but that's a glitter polish, and there's no glitter used in this mani!) So I have no clue what polishes I used in this mani, but as I've said in the previous recent posts, if you really want to know, just ask. My stash isn't so huge that I can't narrow it down to two or three polishes at the max, and I can probably name the exact polish for most of them. I'm just not at my stash while I'm typing these. :)<br />

It's a pretty simple mani in terms of artwork - I started with a base of Nabi Holographic Purple, added a gradient of loose glitter to the tips, some rhinestones on the middle fingers, and a clear glitter polish on the thumbnails.

So much so that I did a manicure based on it that very weekend!<br />

Isn't that pretty?! So many colors went into this manicure: the base white was Sinful Shine Wisp, but the rest of the polishes are in no particular order: Sinful Colors Happy Ending, Sinful Shine Bananappeal, Avon Absinthe, Orly What's the Password, Above the Curve Wisteria, and I used both Girly Bits Street Magic and a little bitty Bon Bons clear glitter polish (no name on the bottle) to mimic the sparkle-shine on the card. Here's a blurry pic to show off that glitter:<br />

My lack of words over the last few months also meant that I didn't always write down what polishes I used for some manicures. If there's a manicure that shows up in the next few weeks that you just have to know what polish is used, let me know, and I can probably narrow them down to at least a few if not the exact ones I used, but at the moment I'm typing this up on my lunch hour and my polish stash is at home. :P</div>

I think I started with a white base, but the polishes used for the colors are Joe Fresh Mocha, Chian Glaze Kalahari Kiss, NYC Mulberry Street, Elevation Polish Temperance, and Sinful Colors Coffee. I have no more words to add to this one, so bring on the pretties!<br />

I've still been doing my nails once or twice a week, and taking pictures, but the social spoons required to add words to these posts have been extremely absent. My then-17-year-old son moved in with us in January, and he graduated high school in early June. Since then, the stress level in my home went up by quite a bit, as he never managed to get a summer job, and so was in the house, with the husband and the littler kids, nearly 24/7. Not that he's a bad kid, but adding an adult male who is an essential stranger into an existing household is <i>stressful</i>, no matter how well you get along with the guy and how much you love him!<br />
<br />
Well, he started college and moved into the dorm about three weeks ago, and I'm finally getting my typing fingers into gear and starting to post again. The oldest mani I have in my drafts is a watermarble. I had no particular color in mind, so I browsed colorcombos.com and found a batch I liked.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.colorcombos.com/color-schemes/54/ColorCombo54.html" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://www.colorcombos.com/images/color-schemes/color-scheme-54-main.png" height="234" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
So, I found the four polishes in my stash that came the closest to those four colors: Sinful Shine Break Away, Sinful Shine Alfresco, Barielle Aura Angora, and Wet N Wild Sunny Side Up. I really don't have a color that actually <i>matches</i> that pale peach in the middle, but I did my best. And now for the resulting watermarble!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Except for the accidental double-dipping of the ring finger, which actually looks pretty artistic, this ended up being the best watercolor I've done to date, I believe.<br />
<br />

<br />
I did accidentally double-dip a finger on my right hand as well, though this time it was the middle finger.<br />

The base color is Rimmel I Lilac You, and the dots were done in NYC Midnight with Nabi Hologram Dark Purple on top of them. I think I used three different sizes of dotting tools for this baby!<br />

As usual, I've still been doing my nails and taking pictures, but I just haven't seemed to have the time or words to write these blog posts.<br />
<br />
This mani is a Monkey-See, Monkey-Do based on Radi D.'s gorgeous manicure which you can find <a href="http://radi-d.blogspot.com/2014/02/wine-coloured-gel-polish.html" target="_blank">here</a>. Even after more than two years, I still cannot copy the tiny, crisp lines that my favorite nail artists manage. I am so in awe of their abilities!! But I was still pretty darned happy about my results, even on my winter-short nails.<br />

I started with a base of Pure Ice Home Run, followed by a angled tip with OPI Jade is the New Black. The dark lines are done in Orly Buried Alive, and Sinful Shine Wisp was used for the white detail work. I think Sinful Shine is too thick of a polish to work for detailed lines, though, but I'm running out of my standard Milani Whitest White. I need to pick up some more plain white and black polish next time I'm at Walgreens.<br />

She called it "Happy Forties". However, I decided to call the post "Old Fashioned Roses". I did promise, however, that I would always share her titles with whoever was reading, whether I choose to title the post something else or not.<br />

I recreated it this manicure completely with Sinful Shine polishes. I picked up a bunch of new ones a few weeks back, and within a few days I had done this manicure. (As I've said many times, untrieds don't stay that way long on my desk!)<br />

The base blue is a gorgeous spring shade called Alfresco. I used Wisp for the white, and then Devious for the red, In The Limelight is the green leaves, and I <i>think</i> I mixed Wisp and Devious to make the pink, since I don't have a pink Sinful Shine in my stash list.<br />

My left thumbnail decided to smudge the next morning even though it had been dry before I went to bed the night before. It was fine when I woke up, but after getting ready for work, the polish had smooshed itself back. I smoothed it out as best I could, but the closeup pics are tattletales!<br />

Not that she eats a lot of them, but she thinks they <i>look</i> adorable. So around this time of year she starts putting a few packages on her front desk as a display. And gradually, over the course of a few weeks, more start showing up. Because they come in a whole <b style="font-style: italic;">rainbow </b>of colors, don't you know? So if she starts with pink, yellow, and blue, then someone will show up with a package of green. And someone else will find a package of rabbits instead of chicks. This year, I found orange for her when she had the rest of the rainbow but was only missing the orange. Then people started bringing in the new flavors... I printed up a sign for her, even, with three sides to it so she can change what it says. One side says, "Talk to my Peeps!" The second says, "Have your Peeps call my Peeps...", and the third declares that "Peeps who need Peeps are the happiest Peeps around!"<br />

This is the current display as it was the Friday before Easter. Bwahahahaha! Beware the Peeps!! And if you don't already know where I work, there's <i>one</i> clue in this picture.<br />
<br />
So I declared to all and sundry that this manicure was "for E..." when I showed it off. I'm sure you can clearly see why...<br />

I even did my best to match the font in the logo! I did Peeps on my thumbs and middle fingers (given the dimensions of Peep chicks, I needed width more than length for these) and the rest of the fingers have decorated eggs. Now, in my family, eggs usually get decorated for the spring equinox, but I'm happy with this manicure any time of the year.<br />

I used Sinful Shine Wisp and Alfresco for the background colors, and all the various details were done in those as well as Pragmatic, In The Limelight, Dark Room, Break Away, Bananappeal, and Sinful Colors Over It. I just haven't picked up a Sinful Shine pink yet, apparently. But then I have to consciously decide I'm missing a pink shade and go <i>look</i> for it, because I don't buy pinks 'just because'. I hate pink. :P<br />
