Nail Art for Nubs AND ANNIVERSARY Nails

By -
Well I have a special surprise for this weeks Nail Art for Nubs. It also happens to be my 7th wedding anniversary. Since the traditional gift is wool or copper, I have decided to do a metal looking sparkle gradient. This is a very special day for me as my husband and I have been through so much in the last 12 years that making it (lol) 7 years is an incredible feat! All joking aside, my husband is my rock. He is my dartboard when I am angry and my shoulder when I am sad. He makes me laugh and cry and angry and every emotion. True love is always there in the good and the bad. I can truly say we are two peas in a pod and in it until the end!!

So, to create this fancy gradient I used 2 colors:

Philly Loves Lacquer- Pennhurst Asylum
Cirque Colors- Ica Valley


I really liked this design. It is simple, yet fancy. I wanted to do something that wasn't too too flashy for dinner. 


Also, all of this glitter!! My camera did not like it!! Too much shine!! 


Well, I hope you all enjoyed this glitzy, glammy, anniversary mani! Be sure to join me tomorrow for my #RedCoatTuesday link up! All you need is red nails. Details will be on my Facebook tonight.

I Went Naked...With My Nails!

**Press Samples** Yup, I did it. I cut down all of my nails and started over a couple of months ago. I wanted to get some ridges filled and stop some cracking I had with this lovely winter weather. Zoya has a fantastic little line called NAKED MANICURE.  It consists of a base coat, perfector in a couple different shades and then a top coat. The perfector users diffusers, keratin, and reflective color pigments to create an illusion all while ensuring healing of your natural nail to help conceal imperfections.  I've been using this set for about 2 months now and I have been able to grow my nails back out all while keeping them strong and healthy. I will continue to use this system in between manicures just to help continue that strengthening process and for a little refresher.

**Press Samples** I guess I have been in the testing mood. This time, pinks. Not just any old pinks, but Zoya pinks! With the release of Wanderlust, I got thinking about all the different pinks Zoya had and could they really all be different? I grabbed all the similar looking pinks and went to swatch town. I used 8 different pinks from my vast Zoya collection. I even snuck in a matte!  As  you can see, while some of them are seriously similar. I think Byrdie and Nana are most similar. I loooove all of these pinks and this little comparison experiment, made me literally want to wear one each week! Maybe a little girly pick me up?!?! What do you think of these pinks? Do you have a favorite? Is there any other Zoya pinks you would add to this?
