31 Day Challenge-Day 13:Animal Print

Hey There Pretty Ladies! welcome to the 13th day of the 31 Day Challenge today for you I have Animal Print. Now I don't know about you but when I hear the word animal print most of the time my mind directs me towards zebra,cheetah, leopard and maybe even giraffe print...Is this just me? Point is I wanted to break out of that mold and do something different...Now I must admit that I hate anything slimy,green,reptile-y, amphibian-y (don't believe those are real words lol but you catch my drift) but another thing I must admit is that some of these creatures have the most amazing, beautiful patterns I have ever seen,without further ado
I present to you The Dyeing Dart  Frog Also Know as Dendrobates Tinctorious.

P.s (I know my hands look a little reddish in the following pics and that's because I am no longer using a florescent bulb in my light box now it's a soft yellow bulb but Idk i think I prefer the sorta red-ish hands rather then the weird color from the post before this one lol...at the end all that matter is that you can see what is on my nails! right??? :D)
Polishes Used:
-Butter London-Blagger ( 3 coats)
-Sinful Colors-Unicorn (3 coats)
-Diamond Cosmetics-Tiffany Blue (for Gradient)
-Black Acrylic paint
As Always Thank You For Looking! <3
I can't Wait  to see what the rest of the girls Came up with!

Polish Used:
Bettina-Gladiola (3 coats)
Essence-It's Purplicious (glitter Gradient) (Thank You Chiro!)
Essence-Evil Queen (glitter Gradient)

It's Been such a long day, I went to school on a few hours of sleep and then came home to dye my hair, No more blonde highlights! I offically went red, well it's a red with purple undertones sort of like a burgundy, hm it's something new and fresh but im not quite sure if I love it...Yet! talking about dye does anyone know what I can use to remove the dye from my nails? :( suggestions are appreciated! anywaysssss I'm so tiredddd!!! you know the tired where your eyes burn just because you are trying to keep them open? yeap that tired. But I have to post my mani because I would hate to miss another challenge. For Day 11 of the 31 Day Challenge the theme was Polka dots, I decided to do some Australian Aboriginal Dot Art. My Inspiration for this mani is the following

Welcome to Day 10! I must admit I loveeeee Gradients! They are one of my favorite things to do, recently I discovered that if you brush a light coat of Glue around your cuticles and let it dry the polish that gets on the sides is easily removed so no need for the acetone and brush ladies! anyways here is what I have to show you for today!

Polish Used 
China Glaze-Kinetic Candy
Sinful Colors-Zeus
Diamond Cosmetics- Not Your "Hum Drum" Plum
Sparkles By Julie-Sugah
You Can find this awesome topper Here On Julie's Etsy Store
