#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?

Let's Do The Time Warp Challenge - Day 1

Hey guys! I'm excited to announce that I'm doing the Let's Do The Time Warp Challenge over at Neverland Nail blog. I'm SO excited about this challenge because I love vintage.


Today is Day 1: I should have been born in... and I've got some groovy 70's nail art to show.

Now I should include some sort of explanation for why I chose the 70's, right? Three reasons:
1.) I love the 20's, 30's, and 40's and I didn't want everyday of the challenge to be about them so I chose something different!
2.) Most of my favorite rappers were born in the 70's.
3.) The patterns man, the patterns!

These nails were inspired by tie dye, flower power, lava lamps, and leather fringe vests, and I wanted each to look like some crazy pattern that would fit in as the backdrop on That 70's Show (remember the lil transitions with the characters dancing or swinging or whatever?)

I used:
Wet N' Wild Wild Shine - French White Creme (base on every nail)
Sinful Colors - Ruby Ruby
Wet N' Wild Wild Shine - Sunny Side Up
L.A. Girl  Disco Brites - Psychedelic
Sinful Colors - Irish Green
Sally Hansen Insta-Dri - Brisk Blue
Wet N' Wild Wild Shine - Tickled Pink
Kleancolor - Pastel Blue
Wet N' Wild Spoiled - Show Me Some Skin
Revlon - Espresso

That's all! I'll be back later this week with Day 2!
