Beauty Tips for Women: Seashells and Flip-Flops Manicure

I have been a bit uninspired lately after having to chop off what little length I had gotten in my nails over the summer.  Hanging at the beach and pool really took a toll on my nails.  So to cheer up my mood I decided to go for neon pinks and some simply stamping.

Here is a list of what I used for this manicure:
Salon Perfect – Tickled Pink
Salon Perfect – Perky Pink
Rica – Whiteout
Cheeky plate – CH37
Cheeky plate – Jumbo #2

I used two coats of Perky Pink on thumb and ring finger.  I stamped the flip-flop image from CH37 unto them using Tickled Pink.  It stamped well but was very subtle.  I can image that over white Tickle Pink would look very nice.  The remaining fingers got two coats of Tickled Pink.  I stamped the seashell image from Jumbo #2 using Rica Whiteout.  Rica Whiteout is an amazing white stamping polish.  I can’t recommend it enough.  Topped it all off with Seche Vite.

Today I have a rainbow cheetah manicure I did using FingerPaints Poolside Paradise collection.  I won this collection from their Facebook page.  This entire collection is super vibrant neon metallic polishes.  I was inspired to do a rainbow cheetah manicure from my daughter’s dress.
