Back on schedule

Hey all. Ok I know I said I would post last night but these 2 jobs are really getting to me. Don't get me wrong. I do love working at both places. I just feel like that is all I do. Welcome to adulthood right? BLECH!

Anyways since I was doing clinicals every Tuesday and now I'm not, I can change my polish more :) Yay! Here are two posts and then you will be caught up to what I have on my nails right now. (That will be a surprise to the end of the post)

First one I did was exactly like the one I have done before. First I used Jesse's Girl Babycakes and then taped off the sides painted Pure Ice in white and Konaded the leopard print on with Wet and Wild black.



I really like this design so that is why I repeated it. I wont lie to you. It will probably not be the last time you see it either. :)

OK! Onto the next design...

I do Harris Poll surveys every now and again and I let my points build up so that I could get a $20 gift card from Amazon. Guess what I bought? RIGHT! Nail polish. I needed more topcoat so I bought two of those, plus I got China Glaze Aquadelic, OPI Dating a Royal, and LA Girl Glitter Uninhibited. I also ordered a nail polish that is on my fingers right now and I will give you a hint at the end of the post.

So for these nails I had on China Glaze Aquadelic which is a really pretty blue color. Or aqua. Ha! And then I put some of the black glitter, which I have been DYING to have, over it.


Isn't it a pretty combo??


I LOVE black and aqua together and I received many complements on it. Though some were confused as to how the black shatter (from OPI) could do something like that. :)

Ok so I have been on the waiting list for this stuff for a while now. I seriously gave up. One night I was laying awake and my phone went off telling me it was back in stock. I went to the website as fast as I could and their server was down. No matter which way I refreshed, it wouldn't let me in. So I gave up. Right before I turned my laptop off and went to bed, I decided to check one more time. Guess what? I got it :D I was so excited I couldn't believe that I was getting it (I'm super lame. I know) but I am happy. Ready for your hint?

Love this stuff so far :D

P.s. Tell your friends about Fancy Phalanges because when I hit the 50 followers mark I'm going to have a giveaway!!!

St. Patty's Day

Hey all! Sorry I haven't posted in a while but now you get to see what I did for St. Patrick's day. I didn't want to do a mani that was overkill on the green.

First I started off with China Glaze Four Leaf Clover on all of my fingers but my ring finger. For that I used Pure Ice Superstar. Once that dried I put some SV on and let it dry. Then I used the Four Leaf Clover to stamp on a clover on my ring finger. Then did some polka dots around it using my dotting tool.

That just shows how nice the green was. Not an overkill but it was festive.


And there is the close up of the accent nail. I got many complements on it. After all of this I thought it would have been nice to add some sparkles. Too little too late I guess.

Anyways, I hope you all had a fun holiday and enjoy this mani. I'll try to post another one soon. Enjoy :)

Polka dot french

Hey all! Happy Monday :)

I saw this manicure on one of the sites that I follow and I dont remember what one so if you happen to see it let me know. Anyways I started out with China Glaze For Audry. Then I used my scotch tape to make a diagonal line and painted it with Wet N Wild Black Cream. After I put on a coat of SV, I used Pure Ice Superstar with my dotting tool and then put a stripe of white using the Kiss Nail stripper. Then I topped it off with my Essie top coat.


I like it and everything but I wish the stripe across was more straight. It's a cute idea but I need to have a steadier hand.


I hope you all enjoy this.

I seriously CANT wait until I can do my St. Patrick's day mani that I am planning. Nothing fancy but I am excited about it.

Hope you all have a good week!!
