Splat!


Happy monday!!! It's *bleepin* hot here today in sunny Las Vegas, and definitely doesn't feel like April should. :-D Today's design is simple again, I got home late after the show last night, and was too tired to do anything intricate, but I still dig the color combo- Flip Flop Fantasy is positively retina-searing, the picture doesn't do it justice! :) I'm sitting at my desk right now having a 'Flip Flop Fantasy'... wishing I was at home sitting in the shade wearing flip flops, my comfy jeans, and a t-shirt!! No such luck, it's a work day! The play last night was fantastic, and if any of you should get the chance to see 'Confessions of a Mormon Boy', I'd highly recommend it. It's hilarious, entertaining, charming, and heart-wrenching all wrapped into one story.



I used China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy as a base, with MAC Showy applied by dipping the end of a straw in the bottle of polish, then aiming it at the nail, and forcefully blowing air through the straw to splatter it. I topped it off with 2 coats of Seche Vite top coat.

Flippety flop! (I think it's about nap time for this redhead- why can't we have siestas here in the US?)

More gel nails...

I've been doing lots and lots of gel nails lately. It's the trend now I guess? 


Pink tips and crystals and ready made roses. This shade of pink gel color is my most popular pink! 


This is not overly sweet. I like!
Gel overlay on her natural nails. A proper overlay must not be too thin or too thick, and of cos the structure and surface of the gel nail must not be bumpy. It took me some time to understand the importance of this, and also how to create a smooth surface gel nail cos gel is not easy to control. This is also a reason why I feel that going to a nail school is important. Check out my school, Pink Room, if you're keen to learn.


Summer colors. Crushed shells inlay.


Blue, green and yellow crushed shells. Refreshing!
