Breast Cancer Awareness Nails!

Sorry this is late but here are breast cancer awareness nails!

I painted my nails first with Sally Hansen nail growth miracle in Sweet Sunrise. I used my Sinful Colors Snow me White and my dotting tool to make the breast cancer symbol. After, I used Sephora's Only Gold for Me. I put a stroke of it on aluminum foil then got a tooth pick to pick up the sparkle and put it on the tip of my nail. Look at my other posted called, Glitter Nail Tips for more.

Leopard Print Nails

Today I did yet another leopard print nails! If you didn't notice I love leopard print... :)

Heres what you need:
Dotting tool
Nail polish for the base
Top coat
Black nail polish
White nail polish

What I did was painted my nails with Orly's It's not me, it's you. After it dried I used Sinful color's, Snow me white and a dotting tool to make 3-4 dots on each finger nail which will be the center of your leopard spots so put them in different places each time. Then I used Sally Hansen's Black Out to make the circles around the dots. Before you make the circles around you should know theres 3 kinds of "circles" you can do.
1st full circle
2nd half of the circle (o
3nd "parenthesis" around the circle so it looks like this (o)

$$$ saver!

Tuesday Tip!

Don't spend all that money on striper brushes (a striper brush is the thin brush used to make designs)!  I found they sell many different colors at the local dollar stores. This is a really good way to stock up on all the stripers and colors you ever wanted without paying more than a dollar for a bottle! I hope this saves you some $$$$$ :)<3

                                                          Here's a picture of the brush:

Starburst wrapper bracelet!

Hi! So I've been on instagram lately, if you don't know what that is, it's an app and you can share your pictures with people and it's a lot like tumblr I think. Well I've been seeing a lot of these starbursts bracelets and I really wanted one, but didn't know how to make one and how many wrappers I would need and that stuff. I watched this video and I thought this video was the best video I could find for you guys that helps you learn how to make one!

How to make a starburst wrapper bracelet!

With my wrist size, I used 32 starburst wrappers! And by the end of your bracelet your fingers will hurt from creasing and folding, well at least mine did!

Also the tricky part to the bracelet is closing it, I think the girl who made the how to tutorial above also did a video on how to close it. I found a website but I forgot what it was, which was also helpful and the last one I found but I don't know if it happens to everybody but the last one was loose so I just hot glued it so you couldn't see it on the outside.

Here's how mine came out!

Polka Dots

Hello! :) This is another simple nail design thats extremely, I repeat extremely easy to do! Actually anything is easy if you have the right tools!:)
so what I used:

1. Dotting tool, or check out my post where it tells you other alternatives to make one with things in your house!
2. Sinful colors, Snow Me White
3. Orly, Sterling Silver Rose
4. Sally hansen quick drying top coat
5. Scrap paper
6. Sparkly top coat of your choice (optional)

What I did was I painted 2 coats of Orly's Sterling Silver Rose on all of my fingers except my middle finger. I painted that one Snow Me White. After they were all dry, I used the biggest dotting tool I had, I got my paper and I dabbed it on the paper. I put my dotting tool in the blob and then dotted it on my finger. I dunked the dotting tool in once every dot, but depends how big and opaque you want it. With the other finger I painted just white I added a little sparkle with Sally Hansen's Glass Slipper, because who doesn't love a little sparkle?:) After, I just applied my fingers with my favorite fast drying top coat, hope you enjoy!:)
