The First Ocean Nails

Last month I posted "Ocean Friends" and I said that I has done ocean themed nails before and I will post it later. Well, here is that post! This design was from two years ago, before I created this blog.

You can tell this was a while ago because my painting style has improved since then. haha 

Have a wonderful day! :)

Cornered

Simple and sweet nails this time. It was super easy to make this design and it looks so classy! I haven't done something so simple in a while.

I used "Sweetie Pie" by Maybelline and "Set in Stones" by Essie.
If you want to remake this design, I'd suggest waiting for the base coat to fully dry and using tape to create straight lines for the corners.



Hope you are having a wonderful day :)

Sparkle

A while ago I got these cool chunks of sparkly stuff from Sally's. I thought they would look good with a solid color but concentrated on the tips. They turned out nice but I don't think they will last long on my fingers. I usually don't do put things other than paint on my nails and I forgot that since these are slices of plastic, they don't lay flat. So each little chunk sticks out and is sharp. Each time my finger tips tough my skin, my skin gets scratched lightly. Also, they peel and fall off easily. ...But they look so cool! And they're sparkly!!!

...yea, I'm taking these off soon.

The color I used is Coral Reef by Sally Hansen (I am obsessed with coral for the summer!)

My nails look better in person :( Since the sparkles don't lay flat, they don't look very clean up close.

And here are the sparkly things I got: 

If I do use them again, it will be for a special occasion that's only one night. Or maybe I'll only use the glitter on a couple nails. They look nice, but they're inconvenient.


Hope you're staying cool in this summer heat! (Lesson learned today: even 10am is too hot to run here!)
