Blue-Black Manicure!

Hello Darling Ninjas!

Last week on Wednesday, hubby and I graduated from our solid blue belt to our blue-black belt in Ninjutsu. If you've followed me for a while, you know that I like to do a manicure to match the belt I'm going to for each graduation. Here's my blue-black mani!

This is a pretty simple manicure as far as nail art goes. This is two coats of L'Oreal Notting Hill Blues with black french tips. My left hand turned out really well since I got to use my dominant hand to do the tips; my right hand turned out much worse and I ended up throwing black crackle over my blue to cover it up! Here's my pretty hand :)

Celebration nails: Birthday and Wedding

Here are two of the manicures I had a few weeks ago. The first is the one I wore for my 22nd birthday which was two coats of Essie Pink Diamond and two of Ruby Kisses Crazy Night Out. I thought the purple glitter on the light pink shimmer would make a nice confetti looking manicure and I was right. Sorry about the crappy lighting, my camera wasn't cooperating that day.

The next manicure was the one I had done for my wedding day. This was two coats of Essie Tennis Corset and then french tips with Essie Blanc. I wasn't terribly happy with the manicurist that did the tips but I just tried to ignore their imperfection and be happy that my nails were long enough for natural tips.

Zoya Clara and an iridescent french

Sorry about the delay getting you the pictures of the Zoya Clara I was wearing after the creepy Zombie manicure. Here's four coats of Clara over Seche recondition with Seche topcoat.

I like the shimmer in this dusty orange/peach color. Very pretty. After this I tried my hand at a french where I put the white tip under the base polish instead of over it. This is Sinful Snow Me White for the tips, Essie Sugar Daddy for the base color and then a coat of the iridescent top coat I picked up which is Pretty Pink by NK.
