Another NOTD: Green + Silver w/ Black Feather

This was one of the simplest nail art thingymajiggers I've done in a while. I used a mint green base color and with a black nail art polish, I added feathers onto my ring fingers and added silver tips to every finger. I finished it off by adding a clear top coat. I don't think the green looks that great for my skintone, but I can't but help LOVING the color! It's so calm and cool looking. I hope you guys like it!

NOTD: Kawaiii~~~

This is a terrible picture, but neither of my camera's batteries are charged yet so I had to use my webcam on my lappy. Sorry!! :( After I got done, I realized it's kind of a down-played gyaru nail art type of nail. It's blingy and bold but not toooo much. I think it's a completely wearable nail.

I used a pearl wet'n'wild nail polish from a LOOOOONG time ago for the base color(i'm surprised it hasn't gotten too clumpy and unusable) Then using a holographic black polish from Missha I drew an angled tip. I think the hardest part was adding the silver "lace" detail with an art brush nail polish. I realized that this part was completely unnecessary by the time I finished -_-. Then, using a clear top coat, I painted one finger at a time and added flatback rhinestones of two different sizes before the clear nail polish dried. I'm really clumsy with my nails, so the rhinestones always seem to fall off. I'm always washing dishes without gloves, etc. I guess I don't take too good care of my nails >< Anyone have any suggestions on keeping nail decorations last? I'd LOVE to hear them haha.

Welll, here's the disgustingly grainy and unflattering picture. I'll try to upload a better picture in the near future.

Spots!

Here's my NOTD. I just used a baby pink polish as the base and added some black dots all over. A couple fingers have a few random magenta dots. After all that dried, i added silver glitter spots all over and applied a clear top coat. Enjoy!
Here's another NOTD pic from a few weeks back that I completely forgot to upload. It's pretty random. I didn't have any idea what I was going to do and I just did whatever. Lol

LUUUX, nails, hair, makeup

I know I've been lacking quite a bit in updating my blog. BUT it's for a good reason! I've been trying to get more steady with my YouTube channel so I've been neglecting my blog for a little bit. I'm so sorry!!! :( Anyways, I've done quite a few tutorials since my last post and I wanted to show you guys a few pictures! But, before we get to that...I'm so excited to say that I'VE JOINED LUUUX! I know several YT beauty gurus have been tweeting/making videos about it and  I was really curious as to what it was. So I checked it out, registered, posted, etc. It's basically like another blog where you can post things and rack up points to win prizes. I figured why not try it out! It's actually kind of fun! If you guys want to check it out as well here's my specific link http://www.luuux.com/share/b9428b3a34710f42 . I don't really know how else to share my page with you guys. And I will be up front about it...if you join by clicking that link then I believe I do benefit by gaining some points. BUT that is not the reason I'm posting that link! I really, genuinely wanted to share this site with everyone.

Well, finally after blabbing on and on here are a few pictures of the tutorials I did! The links to the actual tutorials will be right below the pictures! :)

My make-up for those days that I woke up with not enough sleep

That is all for tonight! I really hope you guys are enjoying my blog as of yet. I know it's not something deep and meaningful...but I'm not a deep and meaningful person. I just enjoy sharing the things I have learned over the years with all of you. Gnite!

NOTD

Here is my nail of the day for today (obviously..lol) I used my sinful colors polish in Dream On (a matte magenta) for the tips and painted on a silver glitter (LA Colors art deco in Silver glitter). Then went over it with an LA Girl Flare clear polish for the top coat.
What do you guys think??
