I love this color .
I seem to love Coca Crisp by Salley Hansen , I love this color , it's so pretty . My last two manicures have been with this color . This is honestly one of my favorite browns . I haven't used this nail stamp design , I thought it went perfect with the color of the polish . What do you think? I must admit my skills are getting a little bit better . Now my nail polishing skills need some work lol.

Leopard Print #2

The husband went out and my darling little boy is a sleep what better time to do my nails in peace.
I decided to change the color for the Leopard print nails that I did before. For this mani I used Sally Hansen Insta Dry Polish in Coca Crisp and Konad special polish black pearl and IM Plate M 57.
I really like the way these came out , I applied the stamp Horizontal instead of vertically like I did the other ones. I think this came out a lot nicer . App ling the stamp Horizontally actually did more coverage than applying it vertically . Which set do you like ?

Leopard nails !
I did a new manicure , Just did a fill today , I was surprised it took a while for me to do my nails over again . I did a gel fill and this time I did not file the nails , the gel settled smoothly all I had to to do was buff them with a white block and it worked great ! I decided to go with a full leopard print , I don't think I ever did this print . This is my 1st time using this design. Thought I would do something fun before I start on the Valentine designs !

New Years Nails !
My New years Manicure .
Hope everyone had a great time ringing in the new years with their family and friends . I stood home , made some Pezole and rang in the new year with a nice glass of apple Cider .
My family is not very festivel , I ended up being the only person in my entire house that stood up until Midnight . I toasted to myself lol.
I hope that this year I can reach my goal with my nails and with my Konad nail art designs . I just hope that I have the time to do it , we recently found out that we will be having a new addition to our family . I am excited and a bit scared , because of what happened in August . So far so good though .
Items for this Manicure .
* Sally Hensen Xtreme wear in Celeb City
*Konad Special Polish burgundy
*Konad IM Plate M 8

New years nails

All I would like is to have normal perfect nails again . Seems I have been doing my nails every week , instead of every two weeks which is normal for fills with artificial nails .
I know people say it's easy to regrow your nails after acrylic damage , but my nails seem to be beyond repairable . I can not go a day , a week or a month without doing my nails . My nails actually need the protection that an overlay of gel or acrylic gives .
Since I have been doing the gel nails I have noticed some growth in my nail plate. The problem I have is that my nails lift , and than water gets in them and they get mold , gross !!! How can I fix this problem ?
Doing my nails is no longer fun , it has now become more of a chore for me , almost a necessity in my life . I have been finding that I spend more that 4hrs a week doing my nails . Usually by the end of the weeks my nails have , either lifted or broke . I also notice that my filing job is not that great either, I need help with applying the overlay , shaping and filing . I usually find more imperfections a day after I have completed a new mani. Don't be surprise if by Friday I have a new manicure .
As you can tell this is a new set and I did them a little bit shorter than normal , it makes it a lot easier to type and use my new G2 phone that my hubby got me for Christmas . Any who my husband and I made Christmas dinner and I notice my nail on my index finger was lifting and than I noticed that two other nails were lifting . I manged to glue them , but it didn't work, with unwrapping presents , and cleaning dishes after our meal ,they lifted even more , until once just came right off .
To make things worse I bit off all the nails and they came off so easy , I was very disappointed . However I could tell that a new set was needed . While prepping my hands for my new manicure I did notice some growth , but I also noticed that some nails are getting thin . I just want to do them right for once, I want them to look neat and pretty like every one's nails on the blogs that I follow .
I know I maybe , being hard on myself , but for this mani I did purple nails , ( my son picked out the color) with glitter polish on the tips and stamped each nail with Konad special polish in Silver Image plate design with the wine glass . The sparkle on the tip is so pretty in light .
I hope everyone had a a great Christmas ! Best wishes in the new year .
