This week's manicures =)

Hey everyone! This week, I did a few manis, well it was technically four, but I absolutely detested the glitter gradient.  Not only that, but I was going to use it for my birthday mani, so that was a no go and I redid my nails that night of course.  In order, here are my designs of the week.

Ok, so this was my glitter gradient.  The base color was Sinful Colors- Unicorn, and for the gradient I went with a copper color glitter.  I did this the night before my birthday and I hated it, since it was already really late,  I just erased this one and stuck with a new solid color.
 This is my new solid color I bought recently.  It's a very popular color China Glaze- Ruby Pumps.  And let me tell you I AM IN LOVE with this color!!! Now I know if I'm feeling down, or any lack of inspiration for nail art, I can paint my nails this color, and just leave it be.  This color is gorgeous and I will never be adding this or using this color for art or anything of that.  It's meant to stand on its own.
 Once I took off the China Glaze, I missed my nail art haha.  So I did a simple nail art on an accent nail.  The base color is Sinful Colors- Purple Diamond.  I love it!
 Just a few dots and a sweep and even though it's hard to see, there's a yellow gem in there.  I think purple and yellow are good colors that go well together.
 Now this one, is to celebrate my last day of finals.  Water marbling is so time consuming especially with the clean up and what not, so now that I have the time... why not?  I did this one just this afternoon.  The colors used were OPI-Lucky Lucky Lavender, China Glaze- For Audrey, and Sinful Colors- Unicorn.  I'm in love with the combination of these colors.
Thanks for reading guys! Please, tell me what you guys liked and didn't like and if you have any suggestions or ideas, then please feel free to let me know!

    1. Thank you! And yes i use a white under the marbling. It may be hard to tell on the picture, but I have a bald spot on my pinky that's white lol. It doesn't look too bad, instead I like to think that the white is actually a part of the manicure =)
