Valentine's Day Layered Stamp

Hey y'all! Today I have another Valentine's Day mani for ya! This one is a layered rose design. 

Here's how:

I started with a pink base of Color Club "Wicker Park." 

 This is the plate I'm usin from the bundle monster, with the rose design.

And my clear jelly stamper from the born pretty store.

Then usin a light pink (Sinful Colors "Easy Going"), I place it onto the image.

Then scrape the polish towards me.

And pick the image up with the stamper in a semi rolling motion.

Line it up over your nail and look down the center to help with placement.

That's what it'll look like.

Clean your stamper with a piece of tape.

Next use a darker pink (Sephora Formula X "Eureka") and place that onto the same image.

Scrape the polish towards you.

Pick up the image with your stamper.

Line it up over your nail and look down the center to help place these roses around the first roses. 

Use a small brush with acetone to clean up any excess polish on the skin.

Finish everythin off with your favorite top coat. I use Salon Perfect.

And that's it!

Sugar Spun Valentines

Hey Y'all! It's February! Time for Valentine's Day nails! I'm never sure how I'll feel about Valenetine's Day until it comes around. Last year was a tough one for me, I was dealin with a broken heart and it definitely showed in the designs I did haha. This year I've been online datin and even though it's been a little rough, it's still given me hope of true love so I'm trying to let that show through in my new designs. Hopefully you'll enjoy what I come up with. 
Today I have a sugar spun valentine design. 

I haven't done sugar spun in quite awhile so this was fun. It just reminded me of candy with the chocolate drizzles. 

Let's get into how: 

I started with a hot pink base of Salon Perfect "Wrapped Around My Pink-y"

I'm usin this plate from bundle monster with the hearts design. 

And my clear jelly stamper from the born pretty store. 

Start by placin a red polish onto the image. I used Salon Perfect "Salsa Dance."

Then I scrape the polish towards me. I'm usin my creative shop scraper because I don't like the scraper that comes with the stamper. 

Pick up the image with a slight rollin motion. 

There's the design on the stamper.

Line the stamper up over the nail and look down the center to help with placement and squish it down on the nail.

Clean your stamper with a piece of tape. 

On a piece of paper I let some white polish (Salon Perfect "Sugar Cube") sit and get sticky. Then usin a small dottin tool I drag into the polish and string it across my nail. 

It'll end up looking like this once you're done. 

Use a small brush with acetone to clean up any polish on the skin.

Finish everythin off with your favorite top coat.

I placed this napkin under my nails so I could try to show better color accuracy. The pink is so hard to capture on camera. It's even lighter still than this picture.

And that's it!

Heather Grey Dry Brush

Hey Y'all!  I am a little late in gettin this blog post up, but I'm doin it anyways! This is for my heather grey Tshirt inspired dry brush! 

Let's just get right into it!

I started with a light grey base of Sephora Formula X "Extraordinary."

Then with a darker grey, Essie "Chinchilly," I wiped the brush off on the bottle as much as possible.

Then in back and forth sweeping motions, I brushed it across the nail, leaving streaks. 

Then again with another darker grey, Sinful Colors "My Turn," I wiped the brush off as much as possible. 

And again in sweeping motions, drag it across the nail. Not completely covering the nail. 

And finally use a white, Salon Perfect "Sugar Cube." 

Wipe the brush off as much as possible. 

And sweep it across the nail. 

I continue repeating the process, alternating the colors until I get the desired look. 

Use a small brush with some acetone to clean up any polish on the skin. 

Finish everythin off with your favorite top coat. I use Salon Perfect.

And that's it!
