So excited to see Hercules tonight! In honor of the movie, I created these nails inspired by the Hercules muses. The purple base color is: Color Show "Lust for Lilac" To create the muses, I used Salon Perfect black nail art liner that I purchased at Walmart for just $2.

Polishes used for this design are: (from left to right) Salon Perfect "Sugar Cube", Maybelline Color Show "Born With It", Finger Paints "Gilded Chrome" (I purchased from Sallys Beaury Store), and Julep "Ariana"
Have dry/cracked/irritated cuticles? This product works wonders! I've only been using it for a few days and I am already seeing great results. All you have to do is apply the product to the cuticle as needed. You can But the product at most drug stores, or here.
I've tried so many different nail brushes, and I wanted to share these with everyone. I found this set on Amazon, click here, for only $3.00. You can't beat it for that price! I mostly use the thin striper brushes, and I clean them with acetone when I'm done because regular polish remover does not get all the polish off. I find that they get the job done just fine! I have trimmed the tip of the brush a couple of times to make the brush strokes more precise, but, otherwise, the brushes are perfect! I recommend them for anyone who is looking to get in to nail art, and is looking for some affordable tools.
My absolute favorite polish is "Mod About You" by OPI. It is the perfect shade and consistency, and it lasts for almost a week without chipping! Comment below with your favorite polish colors.
I have recently abandoned my cuticle clipper and picked up this amazing Sally Hansen product! I give this product 5 / 5 stars. It is extremely affordable, easy to use, and effective. Just apply to cuticles, wait 10 seconds, begin pushing cuticles back, and watch the product work! Unlike traditional cuticle clippers, this product does not create loose, irritated skin. I absolutely recommend this product! It can be found at most convenience stores near the other nail products.
Here is my Fourth of July look! As shown below, polishes used are (from left to right): Salon Perfect "laser beam" and "White out" nail art liners, Essie's Mezmerised, and OPI top coat.
OPI is my favorite top coat because I find that it causes the least amount of smudges in my designs. Comment below if you have another favorite brand of top coat! |
