Candy Corn Grunge

 I have a simple one shot manicure to show you today. It's starting to feel like autumn here so I'm switching over to a nice fall pallette.

Layla Mercury Twilight

Today I want to show you Mercury Twilight, a beautiful linear holographic polish by Layla. Like any holographic polish, Mercury Twilight comes to life in full natural lighting but it looks lovely under artificial lighting as well! This is a powerful full spectrum holo and I can't recommend it enough.

Hard Candy Pop Rocker

Black Tie Optional and Pop Rocker.

You may have heard that Hard Candy recently released new glitter polishes. I picked up a bottle of Pop Rocker because the red was by far my favorite. These new glitters are fairly similar to the Hard Candy black and white glitter Black Tie Optional, though they lack the large black hex glitter.

Dapple Grey

I love unusual animal prints, as you have perhaps noticed. Today's manicure was inspired by my love of horses - specifically dappled grey horses.

Subtle Marble

 

I realized that it's been a while since I've done a water marble. Water marbling is one of my favorite techniques, so I obviously had to remedy this!

Nautical Gradient

My fiance woke me up early yesterday suggesting that we drive to the coast. It was a chilly overcast Monday, which was a welcome reprieve from the heat and humidity Maine has been getting. The perfect day to go to the ocean!

Maybelline Color Show Blue Marks the Spot

Hello, everyone! I am so sorry for my absence! Life has been rather crazy, but luckily it's been crazy in a good way. I got engaged on July 5th to my boyfriend of two years and we've been enjoying the summer as best we can given the temperamental and unpredictable weather we're having in Maine.

The never ending humidity has made regular manicures very difficult (ugh, air bubbles and sticky polish!) but enough is enough. Time to get back to business.
