Starting College off With Some Gradients

Hey guys. I feel super bad that I haven't blogged in a while! But I actually have a good excuse this time. I started college last week. So I have either been in class, doing homework, or being really nervous the whole week. I hope to start up a normal blogging schedule soon. For now here is a glittery tribal gradient I did a few weeks ago.



For this design I used O.P.I. My Paprika is Hotter Than Yours! and OY-Another Polish Joke! I used a black stripper from So Easy to free hand the tribal design. I finished with Seche Vite.

China Glaze Art You Looking Tribal Kit Swatches


Hey guys! Sorry I know its been a while. I don't really have an excuse, I have just been super lazy. Basically all I have been doing is sleeping, eating, doing some nail art, and watching Smallville. But today I have some swatches for you of the Art You Looking Tribal kit from China Glaze. This kit contains 3 polishes from their 2015 summer collection called Desert Escape. The kit also came with a black striping polish but I didn't take any pictures with that.

China Glaze Rain Dance The Night Away:
Rain Dance The Night Away is a beautiful bright turquoise creme. This is my favorite of the kit. I really really love this polish. I can't express my love for this in words. In addition to the beautiful color that this polish is, the formula is also amazing. Shown below is two coats without top coat. 



China Glaze The Heat is On:
The Heat is On is a bright orangish red creme. I wouldn't really say that this is your typical red because I
think that there is a hint of orange in it. My pictures below are a little bit more orange that they are in real life. Shown is two coats without top coat. 



China Glaze What's She Dune:
What's She Dune is a sand colored nude creme. I really like this polish because I use nude in so many of my nail art designs. It also just looks good if you are trying for a more work appropriate manicure. The formula was great as usual for China Glaze. Shown below is two coats without top coat.

The base for this design is China Glaze Rain Dance The Night Away. The studs are from The New Black. I used striping tape for the design with Nina Ultra Pro Orange Flame, Sally Girl OMG, Sally Girl XOXO, and China Glaze The Trip of a Lime Time. I topped it all off with Seche Vite top coat.
