Beauty Tips for Women: Color Club – Cosmic Fate

Posted on March 11, 2014 by admin

Cosmic Fate is part of the Color Club Halo Hues Holographic Nail Polish Collection Spring 2013.

I did two coats of Cosmic Fate but could have easily gotten away with just one coat. I had no issues with application. The formula is very nice.

I decided to stamp using Cheeky plate CH16.

The holographic goodness really came out in the outdoor pictures but that doesn’t take away that it looks lovely in indoor lighting as well.

I love how this quick manicure came out.

I give Color Club Cosmic Fate five brains!

Beauty Tips for Women: Snowflake Bling Manicure

Posted on March 5, 2014 by admin

Still working through those Christmas manicures. I did this manicure on 12-24-2013.

I took very little pictures of the process since I did this on Christmas Eve and was rushing to do a lot.

I started off by doing a coat of Color Club Over the Moon on my ring finger and thumb. I did two coats of Venique Wingtip White on the rest of my fingers. I applied to the left of the nail Over the Moon. I wasn’t too concerned that my line was straight since I knew I would be covering it with some bling.

I then stamped the white areas with snowflake images from Bundle Monster BM14, BM319, and BMH01 using Over the Moon. I added clear rhinestones to the line to make it pop more. For my ring finger and thumb I stamped the sweater image from Winstonia W120 using Wingtip White. I added topcoat to seal in the design.

I was happy how it came it and couldn’t stop looking at my nails.

Beauty Tips for Women: Taupe Manicure

Posted on September 26, 2013 by admin

Looking for a nice taupe color then let me suggest Nicole OPI – My Jay Or The Highway! from their Modern Family collection. I saw this polish in the store and it didn’t call to me at all until I saw a manicure using the color and just fell in love with it.

Here is my simple and quick manicure using this polish.

My Jay Or The Highway! is a lovely cream taupe/nude color. The formula was very nice. It applied very smoothly and with two coats reached opacity. For my ring finger I decided to using Color Club – Beyond. Beyond is an amazing black holographic polish. I used two coats. I tried to capture the holographic effect put simply couldn’t do it justice.

Although I liked the manicure just fine with the accent finger I wanted to add something so I decided to try my hand at a french tip using Beyond. I did it freehand and it didn’t come out to bad. But I defiantly have to work on my freehand technique.
