Tutorial One

1. Start with a gradient french, or classic french manicure. I used a gradient french, since I am sort of over classic french manicures and find them boring. I used White On from Sally Hansen and French Rose from Rimmel, both of which I sponged on.

2. Taking your choice of colour of nail polish or acrylic paint, make a heart about midway through the nail, then drag the tip of the heart down to the tip of the nail.

3. Repeat step 2. until you have the desired amount of hearts you'd like.

Tutorial Two

1.Start with a gradient french, or classic french manicure.

2. Using a dotting tool, make five dots in the corner of your nail. Using a paintbrush, tooth pick or pen, drag out the dots to a point to create petals. I used black acrylic for this.

3. Finally, using a different colour, make a dot for the center of the flower. Also, make a dot between two petals and drag it to a point to create a leaf. Repeat for as many leafs as you would like. I used silver acrylic for this.

If you ask me, I like the hearts the best, but I love the flower too!

Hope you guys like these as well!

So it was supposed to be CSI week in my bio class (we basically apply our knowledge of genetics to solve a fake murder), but someone...*cough*... my teacher :p... messed up on the dates. Anyways, in honour of the supposed to be happening CSI week I painted my nails. Here's my Manicure Monday mani.

I'm serious guys. Flick off those lights, save some energy and celebrate Earth Day! Here's my mani (on a Monday, since I hope to have a new post for you guys every Monday now), to celebrate Earth Day!

This post is a little bit late, over a week late to be exact. Because on April 5th I went to a Billy Talent (and Sum 41) concert. For those of you who don't know, Billy Talent is a punk rock band from Mississauga  Canada. Let me just say, it was the best concert I've ever seen! I had a floor ticket, and I was front row, so I was pretty darn close to the stage. And, of course being me, I had to paint my nails for the concert.

As I've mentioned before, I adore Mickey and Minnie Mouse, and Disney in general, so that's why Disney themed designs tend to be on my nails. I started with a base of Designer... de Better from OPI. Then, on my ring fingers, I painted a black half circle at the tip, along with two tiny black circles for ears with Black Satin from Rimmel. I finished it off with a white polka dotted red bow with acrylic. Enjoy!

After four years of having my nails squared off, I decided I needed a change.
