Red & Gold Nail Stamping Can It Get Better??? We Will See!

Christmas design 2.

With this design I started with some gold

Sally Hansen "Gold Chrome" to be exact.

Then I put on some Sally Xtreme Wear "Set the Stage"

(just for fun...you will not see it in the finished design)

and grabbing my trusty DRK-C plate used Sally Hansen Insta-Dri in "Wined Up" #19

Hope you like it.

Multi Chrome Stamping Nail Art

I love this design....but my camera is evil and it didn't pick up the colors 

the way it does in real life.

I used Sally Hansen Chrome in Pink, Blue, Gold & Purple

over black

and stamped using the Drik Plate C

Zoya 18k Gold Topcoat Box Set

I ordered another gold topcoat....I guess I have a gold obsession....Zoya is coming out with there own 18kt gold topcoat....again it is pricey at $30 however unlike the OPI gold topcoat Zoya includes there Black and White polish in a box set.

"The "plain" gold polish in the picture is not included in the set"

They state on there site the official shipping date is 10/15/12

and they are available for pre-order.

Zoya also states "like OPI" when they are gone they will not be making any more.

When I get the OPI and Zoya in I will be posting a swatch and comparison,

so keep checking in

Starting To Feel Like Fall !!!!

Fall is my favorite time of year. The colors, food, fashion and being from the south, the cool weather and nothing tells you fall is coming like being able to drive down the road with your windows down (because normally you blast your AC as high as it will go). So when I got to the salon today I got the urge to use some beautiful fall colors for my nail art.

Start with 2 coats of Sally Hansen

"Bronze Ablaze"

Insta-Dri

Then grab your makeup sponge

 and get these (or like colors ready)

Sally Hansen Insta-Dri "Coco A-Go-Go"

Sally Hansen Insta-Dri "Bronze Ablaze"

Sinful Colors "This Is It #832"

Sally Hansen Xtream Wear "Golden-I #485"

Paint a line of each color next to the other in the patten you want them to show up on the nail.

Then soak them up with the flat edge of your sponge.

Now lightly pat or roll the sponge on your nail.

(If you are using light or sheer colors you may have to do this a few times)

I then painted all the nails with Sally Hansen "Set The Stage".

You can never have to much glitter.

I loved this look....and you can feel free to stop here, just topcoat and done....

But not me!

I used loose gold glitter and put it on the "moons" of my nails.

Placed a brown crystal on my ring finger and put

bronze glass beads and gold rhinestones around it.

Then I used stripping tape in gold to make a quilted pattern on my thumb

and placed a gold rhinestone where the points met.

Topcoat And Done

I hope you like it!

I hope you try it!

Asian Red & Gold Leaf Acrylic Nail Art

I got a new stamping plate in the mail and could not wait to try it out. If there is one thing I am inspired by it is asian art and design. I got this plate off of lightinthebox.com and it was much cheaper than the same plate found on Ebay. Not only is this my first blog post but it is also my first Youtube video. Let me know what you think. It can be a bit shaky at times but I am working to remedy that.
