Sign language nail art


I've always wanted to learn sign language! I just know a couple of words, and the alphabet. Can you see what these hands are saying?

The base is the absolutely gorgeous Takko Lacquer Ruby Quartz that I got from Color4Nails. Isn't it magical? There's so much going on in real life that I can't even begin to show in a photo!

I painted the hands with acrylic paint. They could have been better, maybe they look a little bit dirty.... but hey, you have to be able to talk even if you have dirty hands!

Oh hey look! The nails are painted too!

Patronus nail art


My mom and I are playing Lego Harry Potter on the Wii, and yes, my mom is super cool like that :-p The other day I was just kind of doodling on my nails, and a Patronus appeared! I added glow in the dark effects for kicks ;-)

I used a variety of Serum No. 5 polishes to draw the moon, the Patronus, and the.... I don't know what they are. Star speckles? I used Serum No. 5 Solar Power, Atomic Peach, Awesome Blossom, Raspberry Delight, and Guiding Lights.

The base is Artistic Nail Design No Taming My Twinkle and it's the perfect base for a starry night. It's also gorgeous on its own, as you can see in last year's review.

Also, don't forget about the Black Friday sale still going on for the rest of the weekend! You get 40% off of EVERYTHING in my shop, there's free worldwide shipping, and a lil' something extra in your package. You don't need a code, just throw stuff in your cart and enjoy!

Rainy day nail art


I have a secret... I kind of love walking in the rain! It's the ultimate feeling of freshness, like nature taking a shower, and when you get home it's awesome to warm back up!

Me and my mom got caught in a rainstorm the other day and it lifted my spirits :-p I guess I looked a lot like this lady here, except for a red coat instead of a yellow one!

If you like her, she's yours! This lady is in the shop right now as a charm, but I can hang her from a necklace or a keychain if you'd prefer. There's only one of her, once she's gone, that's it!


I used Picture Polish Lakodom for the base, it's the perfect balance between gloomy and fresh. The drops were made with What's Up Nails Alchemy powder, so magical when the nails move!

Fish in space nail art


Fish. In. Spaaaaace! Did you know that fish actually really like to explore the unknown? They are so sofishticated!

The absolutely gorgeous base polish is Emily de Molly Too Many Moves that I got from Color4Nails. The shift is amazing!

On top, I sponged some SuperChic Lacquer 40 Winks, Cherub & Dopamine. They really add the sparkle to the galaxy base, I love it :D
I painted the design with acrylic paint. I spent a lot of time adding more different shades of the same color scheme, trying to give the fish depth and texture. 

Like 'em? They are available as earrings in my shop right now! I offer free shipping to anywhere in the world ;-)

Time for romance nail art


I'm in the mood for romanc---- nope. I can't say it. Just give me your roses & chocolates and go home :-p

I started with a base of A England Nocturne that I got from Color4Nails. I painted the design with acrylic paint, and added various glitters from Twinkled T on top of a wet top coat. Maybe I shouldn't have done the lips, but I was caught up going with the flow :-p

Glow in the dark nail artist nail art


Way to state the obvious :-p But still, this seemed like a great way to celebrate our common nail loving-ness!

The base is A England Nocturne that I got from Color4Nails and I mattified it later on with a matte top coat. There's also some purple Holobae glitter in there, courtesy of Twinkled T ;-) I painted the design with white acrylic paint before adding Serum No. 5 Wisteria-ously Bright and Yes, She Can! to it for...
...the glow effect! It's faaaaaaabulous! Now even ghosts and spiders that watch me while I'm sleeping will know that I like to paint tiny things on my nails :-p
