Just a Little Bit of Random

Hey guys. I feel so bad lately. I'm barely painting my nails and blogging, so I am now promising to bring a bunch of new designs and tutorials to you guys starting today. So, without further ado, the nail art.


It's a more summery design, which I seriously needed, since winter has been hitting hard in Ontario lately. My bright design just made me think of the summer (and spring!) that are sort of almost here. :p Anyways, the orange is Sunkissed from Sally Hansen, and the green is Lime Up! from Essence. The dots are Ogre-the-Top Blue from OPI and white acrylic. I used a striper brush to make the pink lines, which is Watermelon from Essie, and then a yellow striper from Stripe Rite.

What do you guys think? Is this a good summer design? And while I'm blogging, I may as well ask. Any spring or Easter tutorials you guys would like to see? Let me know!

Seeing Dots: Tutorial 2

Here's day 2 of the Seeing Dots tutorials.


1. Apply your base colour. I used Watermelon from Essie.

2. Using a mid sized dotting tool (I used a pen tip), make an arc of dots starting at the base of the nail and curving out. Make sure the dots gradually get smaller.

3. Using a second colour, slightly overlap the dots and repeat by making an arc of dots. Once again, make sure that the dots gradually get smaller.

There you go. Another super simple tutorial that gives a really cute look. Enjoy!
