Purple Glitter - Rimmel 60 Seconds 615 'Night...
God I loved this colour combination. It looked like a gel overlay, sooo shiny and gorgeous. The deep blue undertones in the Rimmel 60 Seconds are unbelievable. I must have spent a good 4 hours total moving them back and forth under the sun. This was a pre-mani to my next psychotic design which I called my Jersey Shore nails. That one was just way too many acrylic shapes and rhinestones and...

Green and Gold Damask Attempt, Newspaper Technique...
This was a totally experimental design I tried before doing my St Patties Day Nails. I tried using the newsprint technique for larger damask cut-outs and it was a nightmare getting them to line up/press all over the natural nail. I get the idea it works so great with newsprint because its uh, *cough* NEWSPRINT. Aka thin and inky. Next time I’m bumping my ink output way up and using a...

Terrible photo, but...

Robot Nails
Just a quick design on a man-friends hand, he refused to let me clean up the cuticles because, “My moms always bitching on about them, fuck them.” I love my friends. Happy messy little 3 second robot :] Thank you hand model! I used white acrylic drawing fluid to do these, first time testing its opacity. It definitely delivered.

Such a Fuckin BEACH. Chippy Beach Nails
These were fun, even if in retrospect they look like crap haha. The gradient on that pinky nail is kinda shit. ANYWAY. I have a painting I did in like grade 8 or 9 that’s taping with a little yellow sun and blue boat on a black sea/sky. I’ll snap a picture when I get a chance, but this was partially inspired by that silly painting. I love using seed beads as bases for microbeads,...

Yellow Pseudo-Tiger Stripes
Dolla Sto Ho. I am a Dolla Sto Ho. I found these rhinestone ‘phone cover’ stickers and initially thought they were the kind with individual rhinestones that you put on one by one. NOPE, They’re solid friggin sheets so I ended up using my mani scissors and cutting em out. Just tried to go take a picture of em and the camera died as soon as I’d tweaked the layout to my...

LBP Inspired Purple 'Upholstery' Nails
I recently got a PS3 so I could play Red Dead Redemption, Dead Rising 2, and Way of the Samurai 3. Literally the only games I want/need until anĀ  amazing and mind blowing rpg comes out. HOWEVER, I grabbed a copy of LittleBigPlanet, and I am so friggin happy i did. So if you’ve played it, you’ll remember all those lovely fabric-grabbable floors and ledges. I may just pop it back in...

Some old photos from when I first started my acrylics >:3 HOLY POOP THEY LOOK TERRIBLE.

Hola, Bienvenue! :D
I am a whore to obsessions, and nail art and fancyness is my latest. Real quick about me: Shit these are hard to write. 1) I swear like a sailor. 2) Aiming for perfection is hard, and I will complain endlessly about the flaws in my designs ahaha 3) I’m hella private, but I NEED to be a part of this scene and share my crap. No one I know irl is openly gluttonous about their polish fetish...
