Spooky!

Spooky season is upon us and soon, we'll see all the ghouls and goblins going door to door while trick or treating!  Here are some spooky nails for the season!


Started with a base of KBShimmer Net Gains (thumb and pinky), Baroness X Perception (index and ring) and Sizzlin Shades Nail Lacquer Supernova (middle).


Topped with a coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


CjS H-78


CjS H-36



CjS H-56


I've been obsessed with layered stamping lately (if only my skills were better!) but it doesn't stop me from doing them time and time again, so used a few different layered images.  Used CjS H-36 (pinky and index), CjS H-78 (middle), CjS H-56 (thumb), and CjS H-43 (ring) using MdU 11, 52, Painted Polish Blanc Slate, Stamped in Midnight and Stamped in Slate.  Words on the thumb are from Marianne Nails n.130.


Added bats using CjS H-36 amd stars from CjS H-78 for filler and interest.  Shadow stamped words on the thumb a few times to make it stand out.


Topped with a final coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top to finish.

Autumn Days

I guess every day is autumn days until December 21st so here's another autumn days mani!


Started with a base of fall looking skittles; starting at thumb and going clockwise:  Zoya Honey, Zoya Arbor, KBShimmer Oh My Gourd, OPI Is That A Spear In Your Pocket? and OPI Piazza Cake.  


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


Maniology M425



Did layered stamping on index and pinky with image from Maniology M425 and on the middle finger using CjS LC-56 as well as the ring finger using CjS-267.  Thumb image is MoYou London Fall in Love 09; shadow stamped the words.  Used MdU 9, 13, 48, 59, 106, 107 and Painted Polish Midnight Mischief.


Finished with a coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

More Flowers!

Another day, another floral mani!


Started with a base of BKind Sauble Beach, two coats, no top coat.  (Fun fact:  I was about 10 kms from Sauble Beach when I did my nails with this polish!)  I love this colour; so much so that I wore it two mani's in a row.  BUT, you would never know that the same polish was used as they look so different.  I got this at Winners and feel I need a backup bottle as I love it so!


Topped accent nails with KBShimmer Chill Out (reflective).  Another polish that I use so often and feel I need a backup bottle of it too!


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.



Stamped using Lina Born to Sail 01 using Painted Polish Blanc Slate, no top coat.


CjS-238



Stamped using CjS-238 using MdU 89 and Painted Polish Blanc Slate, and both polish outlines are MdU 73.  The stamping didn't show up that well so I had to stamp the base 3 and 4 times to make it opaque enough over the base and stamping so the stamping isn't perfect but all in all, I was happy how it turned out.


Added some dots to the floral centers using the same floral base polishes.


Topped with a final coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top to finish.

Merry Christmas!

It's the most wonderful time of the year!  

Here's yet another mani that I didn't do the shadow stamping very well so I sure hope Santa brought that magnifying glass light that can be used for future mani's!  


Started with a base of one coat of KBShimmer I'll Be Chrome For Christmas, over a coat of white soft focus, no top coat.


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


CjS C-64


I did a whole bunch of layered stamping on these nails using assortment of Clear Jelly Stamper plates and I'm have to say I'm surprised that they turned out as well as they did given that I can't see the best to line them up (hence the poor shadow stamping!).  Used CjS C-64 on the middle nails, UC Happy Christmas on pinky, and MoYou Noel 05 on thumb, index and ring finger.  Used Moyra SP14, CjS 062, Painted Polish Blanc Slate and Midnight Mischief, as well as a custom colour using Painted Polish Stamped in Mocha with white to obtain the desired shade.


Added a few snowflakes and mistletoes from UC Merry & Bright on a few nails, then topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top to finish.

A couple months ago, I found a bunch of Lights Lacquer polishes at Winners and picked up a few of them and did these nails not too long ago.  Here's what I came up with!


Started with a base of three coats of Lights Lacquer Now & Later, no top coat.


Topped with one coat of KBShimmer Something to Taco 'Bout, no top coat.
