Dazzle Dusted Nails

Its summer and its time for a spark of magic! Dazzle Dusted Nails seem to be this summer's trend. It is cute and sparkly at the same time. Can be worn simple or you can deco your nails with crystals, bows, decals etc. I glued on crystals and made some teeny little nail bows.

I'm not really a tutorial person but I'll tell you what I did... I used celeb city by sally hansen and created a simple french tip manicure. I then coated my  nails halfway with shooting star by china glaze. Top coated with Sephora Only Gold For Me top coat. I then glue some crystal flatbacks and pink bow decos. I'll probably going to do a simple tutorial on how to make nail bows. <3 Later gators!

Found a similar tutorial online to do these nails. Check it out!

China Glaze

Bought a few summer colors the other day in addition to the Its My Year polish from my recent post. :) They're bright and fun. No swatches just yet... But first... Swatch of Shooting Star by China Glaze that I been meaning to post a picture of...

Its my year...

Ha... not really! However its my day since I Just picked up a few new polishes for the summer. New from OPI's Miss Universe collection, Its My Year. Its a dark purple with gold shimmer flecks. Its pretty nice upclose but I dont know how I feel about it from afar... It just kind of look like a brown mess. When you swipe this polish on your nail, the polish feels gritty to the touch when its dried.

Summer Manicures

Left to Right: Bridezilla by China Glaze, Sparrow Me the Drama by OPI, White Cap by China Glaze

I know I said ill do Manicure Mondays but you know everything I plan never goes my way! So I guess I'll just do Summer Manicures. Its summer so I'll definitely be doing my nails a lot more than usual :) I got new nail polish today so I'm super excited. I LOVE PINK! Couldn't help but pick up Pirates of the Caribbean Polish in Sparrow Me the Drama by OPI. Its a lovely dusty pink color. Very cute in my opinion. :) I also picked up a few China glazes in bridezilla (transparent pink iridescent) and white cap (transparent white-golden shimmer). I'll swatch em another day.
