#31DC2014 - Day 9: Rainbow Nails

I've had this day in the back of my mind for awhile now because today is the day Apple is having their special event. AKA we all know it's the day they're going to announce the iPhone 6.

I was inspired by this logo that I found here.


So I just had to do nails to celebrate the occasion especially since the rainbow theme fit so perfectly.

I kept my China Glaze - Millenium on from yesterday's nails, including the Pretty Woman Holographic Nail Art foil that I had on my ring finger. I used some of the rainbow foil from the kit for the rest of my fingers.

As you can see, I got better at applying the foil as I did more nails. Here's a little trick I learned from a youtube video: wait 2 minutes for the glue to dry.

For me at least, the longer I waited, the better the foil applied. Treat it like lash glue: the more clear and tacky it is, the better.

Here you can see the red on my thumb better. I'm so pleased with the gradient look of it.

For my apple, I started with a base of Sinful Colors - Snow Me White. The green is Sinful Colors - Irish Green, the yellow is L.A. Girl Disco Brites - Psychedelic, the orange is Wet N' Wild Wild Shine - Sunny Side Up, the red is Wet N' Wild MegaLast - I Red A Good Book, the purple is a mix of the red and Revlon - Royal, and the blue is a mix of Royal and Sally Hansen Insta-Dri - Brisk Blue.

Once again I found a necklace that matched my nails perfectly.

Are you excited for the iPhone 6?

#31DC2014 - Day 8: Metallic Nails

For today's nails I busted out one of my absolute favorite metallic polishes.

It's China Glaze - Millenium, and it's one of the first China Glaze polishes that I ever bought.

It has that foil finish to it that a lot of other metallic polishes don't have. It's not just super shimmery with a faux effect, it really looks smooth. When I first got it, it reminded me to the Minx nails that so many celebs were doing at the time.

For the art, I drew a little robot with a black Kiss nail art striper and drew a heart with Wet N' Wild Chrome - Precious Petals. On my accent nails I tried out Pretty Woman's HoloGraphic Nail Art foil kit that I just got. It's my first time trying out foils. Anybody got any tips?

When I think of metallic, I think of robots, so I grabbed this cute necklace that I got from Forever 21.

Robots are cute but robots and hearts and bows and tutus? Cuteness overload.
