You may have noticed I reorganized my blog a bit. Under exaggeration. Let me know what you think of the new style. And today's post:
As someone
who always wanted long nails but couldn't stop biting them, I've finally
found that keeping them pretty stops me from biting them. So as you can imagine, I've been a little obsessed with painting my nails lately. Unfortunately
since I typically play volleyball three times a week I still have to
keep them shorter than I'd like so that they don't break off far
enough down to make them bloody and painful (which has happened by the
way, and damn, ow).
Here are some of the ways I painted them for Halloween this year.
Above: Pokéballs to go with my Pikachu costume. 2 coats Sally Hansen diamond strength nail hardener, 2 coats China Glaze french bliss Ooh La La White, 2 coats Sally Hansen diamond strength Honeymoon Red, Sinful Colors nail art Time Off for the black and 1 coat Seche Vite fast dry top coat.
This was the first time I used something other than tape to make a design; the tip of a bobby pin for the circles. Could have been better, could have been worse. It'll take some practice to get better at that.
