Hello Lovelies! Happy Wednesday!

First things first, If you missed my 14 day Pure Nail Oil results, head on over to NailCareHQ to check them out! Ana posted an amazing account of my progress over 14 days, complete with my email updates and side by side before and after shots! Check it out here!

Also, make sure you enter my 500 follower giveaway! Up for grabs is the BG Cosmetics Holographics Collection, which is sure to sell out fast!

Today's post is a special one- Not only is it an ABC Challenge post, but I'm also not here today. Well, obviously I'm here, but I'm also not here - at least kind of. ;)

I'm guest posting on one of my favorite blogs ever today! I'm incredibly honored and more than thrilled to be posting at Sassy Paints today! My girl Gini, my sistah from another mistah, is on vacation and asked little ole me to guest post for her! How awesome is that? You all know how much I adore Gini - she is simply one of the sweetest, most supportive people I know, and she's been there for me countless times. She's funny, smart, and has amazing nails! Her swatches are superb and her nail art is always awesome. If you're not following her, you're missing out!

I'll be honest with you guys - I knew I had to do something special for this post. I mean, come on! It's Gini! It just so happens that the design I chose can be tied into my letter T Mani. Convenient! Especially since I have my hands full with mom being in the hospital and all.

So today, T is for Tutorial. I chose this design from the incredibly talented Robin Moses, and tweaked it to make it more me.  Here's a sneak peak, but you have to head on over to Sassy Paints to see the full post (and you really should - I love this manicure!)!

This is my "Rockabilly Roses" manicure, inspired by the TUTORIAL (see the T there? hehehe) by Robin Moses:

I'm actually fairly amazed that this came out as well as it did. I havent' done much nail art lately, and I wasn't sure I could get the 3D effect that I was going for with the roses. I think I managed to pull it off though!

Head on over to Sassy Paints to check out the full post! 

And don't forget to check out all my polish sistahs and their awesome T manicures!





What do you think of this design? Are you a Robin Moses fan?

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Polishing!

GUEST POST: Ney de Maquiclub Girl

Hola!! El día de hoy no seré la protagonista en este post, hoy le toca a una compañera bloguera y latina (venezolana) mostrarles su talento aquí en mi blog como invitada. Hace tiempo que quería hacer esto pero no encontraba a la persona indicada y que mejor que escoger a alguien que también tiene un blog en español, por su talento y magnifico blog les presento a Ney de Maquiclub Girl:

Cuando Pamela me pidió hacer una entrada invitada para su blog, gustosamente acepté, aunque estaba realizando dos retos de uñas, me aventuré hice tiempo y cree esta manicura que adoro por sus color brillante y sencillez a la vez.

Para esta manicura he utilizado el esmalte Miracle colors U25 de Flormar y para estampar el 

Devotion de china Glaze, junto a la placa de estampado de Bundle Monster BM-312, también use tres de mis tratamientos para uñas preferidos, de la marca 

Venezolana Valmy, en esta oportunidad el aceite hidratante para cutícula, base coat hidratante con vitamina E y el top coat de secado rápido.

Al escoger un diseño completo debes tomar en cuenta el largo de tus uñas, el mío aun esta en un límite aceptable y el estampado cubre toda la superficie, también es importante escoger los colores, que combinen entre si y con el diseño de la placa, en este caso el azul me parece que combina perfectamente con el plateado y el estampado que es como de ráfagas de viento.

Espero que les guste y recuerden que lo importante de estampar en las uñas es tener claro que vas hacer y mucha paciencia, ser firme pero no ejercer mucha presión y sobre todo situarse en un lugar cómodo con una superficie estable.

Gracias por mirar, les invito a que pasen por mi blog y sigan visitando éste.

XOXO

Guest Post! My Hubs and China Glaze Magnetix in Cling On!

Hello All!
This is Brian and I'm Kimber's husband. Kimber asked me to write about my experience playing with China Glaze's Magnetix. I've seen her playing with a few different magnetic polishes and thought they were all pretty cool, but nothing really caught my eye till Cling On. I was in a funky mood and decided I needed to give it a go myself. I've worn polishes before; mostly black, grey, blue and other 'manly' colors, but I really liked the way Cling On popped. Plus I got to play with magnets, which is always a bonus for dudes. Kimber has this horseshoe shaped magnet thingy with three designs and I had to see if I could make it work for me. I've got large paws that aren't very well designed for detailed work so she usually does my nails for me. This stuff was so easy to apply though! It was a great formula. Either that or I've actually picked up some tricks watching her so often. I'd probably give the credit to the formula just 'cause I really am all thumbs with a brush.

 As you can tell by the pictures, my technique does leave something to be desired, but it was really fun nonetheless. I was especially impressed with how easy it was to get the designs to pop with the magnet. I had always thought there was some sort of secret trick, but it really comes down to positioning and having a steady hand for about 20 seconds. Most of my nails looked great after one try, but for some reason my ring finger gave me loads of problems and I ended up redoing it like three times. Even with that issue I really think they came out pretty nice for a guy that has never painted his nails without having Kimber jump in and fix everything for me. I'm proud to say that this was all me with the exception of her doing my cleanup. If you find any faults, and I'm sure you'll find loads, it shouldn't reflect poorly on her. I had alot of fun with this one and I'm actually debating on whether or not to try another color!

Thanks and Happy Painting!
