Failed Distressed Nails.

Hello everyone! I know it's a bit late but I haven't been posting so I figured I could do it now..So last night I tried doing a distressed nail look, an idea i got off another blog.I honestly feel it ended up looking like a mess...Ill show you Either way lol.

I used about 4 layers of different color polishes
and added Milani Gems to top it off. The Distressed look is created by dipping a Small Paint brush in acetone and going over the nail until you achieve the desired look...Just Don't get to acetone happy. :)

Sunset In Sedona

Happy Monday  Everyone!
 On to the nails :), For today my Manicure consist of this awesome Dark Orange almost Amber Color Polish from Diamond Cosmetics and its called Sunset In Sedona. I LOVE this color.It goes on very smoothly and with just two coats it gives full coverage. I rarely wear polish on its own, so I tried the saran wrap technique   an idea that I got from ChromoCraze's Blog. And here is how i turned out,
The only difference is she tapes up the sides of her nails so it wont get messy. I just simply used acrylic paints since they are easy to wash off if they get on the sides of my fingers . Take a look :)
