A super simple tape mani, but I love it! The picture does not do this Wet N Wild glitter justice.  It’s so gorgeous!  I’m also in love with the Hard Candy Matte top coat.  My favorite was Essie’s Matte About You, but in my opinion this Hard Candy one is just as good, and definitely a cheaper alternative!

Colors used: 

Wet N Wild - Rockin’ Rubies

OPI - A Oui Bit Of Red

I wanted to try out my new Hard Candy polish for marbling, and it spread very well in the water, but the whole process was incredibly frustrating.  Now that the weather is just colder in general, the polish was drying incredibly fast in the water, and the designs weren’t coming out how I wanted.  Not to mention it was extremely messy, which is, for the most part, very uncommon for me.  I mattified it because it looked better that way than it did shiny.  And then of course, I smudged a finger immediately after putting matte top coat. Anyways, done ranting and raving. Lol.

Honestly, I didn’t want to spend much time on my nails, but I didn’t want them to be plain with just one color either, so I thought a pastel rainbow was a good idea. It’s so simple, and I’ve seen it done a few times and I always love it!

Still playing around with my water decals! I only did one hand.

Colors used:

Full nail decals bought from Yayajulia

OPI - Sparrow Me The Drama

Ulta - Tink-Her-Bell

So I tried out the water decals today.  They’re kinda difficult to get on, in my opinion, but I expect like with anything else, it will get easier with practice.  Unfortunately for me, most of the decals didn’t fit my nails; apparently my nails are wide, idk. Lol.  Anyways, I managed to get 3 on that fit okay. They’re too cute to go to waste, so I’m gonna use them whether they’re too small or not!

Pretty much the same idea as the mani I did last week, and a ridiculous assortment of rhinestones on my thumb; they’re pretty unnecessary but I wanted to put some different sizes and shapes to use.  I’ve been really lazy this week…
