China Glaze Treble Maker

Hey guys!

Today I have a swatch and review of the awesome China Glaze Treble Maker to share with you!
Treble Maker is a green neon.

The formula is nice - it is easy to apply and it is not too thin or too thick. It did need three coats to achieve full opacity though, but the dry time between each layer is quick. It dries down to a satin finish, but it is nothing a good top coat can't fix.

I applied some neon studs from Born Pretty Store to my ring finger to give this mani a pop.
Here's a closer look!

This mani is so fun and eye-catching!

More Then and Now

Hey guys!

Today I have some more Then and Now nail art to share with you!
I recreated this mix and match glitter and striping tape manicure from 2014.

For the manicure I started off with a dusty purple base of Essie Warm & Toasty Turtleneck on all my nails. Afterwards I used the silver glitter Essie Set in Stones to create a glitter gradient on my middle and ring finger. On my other nails I placed some random lines of silver striping tape across the nails.

And here is a comparison of Then and Now!

I remember much I loved this manicure three years ago - and it is just as pretty today!

Nail Vinyls

Hey guys!

Today I have some nail art with another one of my new F.U.N Lacquer polishes to share with you!

For the manicure I started off with a black base of Essie Licorice on all my nails. Afterwards I applied a single chevron nail vinyl randomly on each nail followed by a layer of F.U.N Lacquer Crushed Diamond.

And here's a closer look!

I have to say that I am in love with my new F.U.N Lacquer polishes!

Waterfall

Hey guys!

Today I have some glitter waterfall nail art that I would like to share with you!

For the manicure I started off with a black base of Essie Licorice on all my nails. Afterwards I used a small nail art brush and the beautiful F.U.N Lacquer Diamond Flake to make random lines in different lengths down the nails to make it resemble a waterfall.

Close up!

I love this simple and elegant manicure!

Skittlette

Hey guys!

Today I have a skittlette featuring some saran wrap nail art to share with you!

For the manicure I started off with a neon red base of Cirque Colors Game Over on my pointer and thumb, a coral base of Essence Indian Summer on my middle and ring finger, and a gold shimmer base of Essie Getting Groovy on my pinky. On my middle and ring finger I used the three aforementioned polishes and some saran wrap to create the saran wrap design.

My camera can't even handle the neon! Here's a closer look!

It has been way too long since I last did a skittlette!

Negative Space

Hey guys!

Today I made yet another negative space manicure!

For the manicure I started off with a green base of the stunning Deborah Lippmann She Drives Me Crazy on all my nails. On my ring finger and pinky I only painted part of the nail and cleaned up the edges of the negative space nail art with a clean-up brush dipped in acetone.

Close up!

I love this negative space design - so simple, yet so chic!

Stamping Gradient

Hey guys!

Today I tried a new nail art technique - a stamped gradient!

For the manicure I started off with a blue base of Essence Itsy Bitsy Blue Bikini on all my nails. Afterwards I created the stamped gradient with the MoYou London Fashionista 05 stamping plate by filling half the stamping design with Essence Itsy Bitsy Blue Bikini and the other half with the cobalt blue shade Essie Butler Please. When scraping the polishes off the stamping plate they blend together and create the gradient design.

Close up!

This nail art technique is awesome - I am definitely trying it again!
