Fun With Holographics, and a Nail Art Contest! :)

Hi lovelies!! :) 

Today I'm showing you some pretty holographic polishes, and the nail art I did with them! :)

These holographic beauties are: 

Layla Hologram Effects - Mermaid Spell 

and 

Zoya - Storm.

This all started because Jen's Nail Files  just hit 2k likes (congrats Jen!! :D) and is having a nail art contest to celebrate! 

The theme of the contest is to pick a name of one of the polishes from Darling Diva Polishes
, and translate it into nail art! 

So for my entry, I chose the name "Blue on Black" and I thought to myself, ooh I should use my blue and black holographic polishes!! :) 

So here's what I came up with, holographic Butterfly wings!  

I gotta credit my cousin Sarah for this too, when I told her about the contest she suggested doing Butterfly Wings! So thanks Sarah!

You can check out her blog here ! :) 

I also did this one, but I wasn't all that happy with how it turned out. I definitely liked the butterfly better, so I submitted that one for the contest. :) 

These were supposed to be the interlocking dots design, like this one I did earlier this year. It didn't work out quite so well this time though LOL. 

I think it was mostly because my nails are short little nubbins right now, so I didn't have much room to work with. 

So, it came out kinda more like an abstract design. Oh well. :p 

My cousins husband said it looks like footprints, and now I can't unsee that! LOL :p 

 

Here's the up close of my failure. LOL :p 

So make sure to go check out the contest, it's still going and there are going to be 12 winners, So you have a pretty decent chance at winning! 12 people will win a bottle of Darling Diva Polish that was custom designed just for Jen's Nail Files! It ends on Tuesday. I can't wait to see who wins, I'm sure it's gonna be a tough decision for Jen because so far all the entires I've seen are amazing! :) 

Flip/Flop February Day 1: Gradient/Skittle

Time for day one of the 28 day Flip/Flop February Challenge!

Today's Flip/Flop: Gradient/Skittle!

So for today, I decided to combine the flip and the flop, and went with a rainbow skittle gradient! :)

These are sososososososo fun!! They make me want summer really bad LOL.

One thing I have to say though, is that my camera decided to be a weirdo with my blue and purple gradient LOL. The blue looks periwinkle, and the purple looks blue. Which they're not, at all. Oh, camera. LOL.

I felt like it was missing a little something, so I went ahead and added some glitter. Because you know me, everything's better with glitter! Some girls are just born with glitter in their veins. ;)

The polishes I used were:
Red: Sephora by OPI - And A Cherry On Top
Orange: Wet'N'Wild Shine - Sunny Side Up
Yellow: Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear - Mellow Yellow
Green: Ulta - In The Lime-Light
Blue: Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear - The Real Teal
Purple: Wet'N'Wild Fast Dry - Buffy The Violet Slayer
Glitter: Sephora by OPI - Meet Me At The Disco
