Nailed It!

Today, I wanted to talk about my favorite winter polishes. It’s been a while since I’ve posted about polish. Life’s been weird and pretty nails haven’t been on the top of the list. However, after a week in the hospital for Ray’s surgery (more on that later) one of the first things I did to relax and feel normal was paint my nails. 1. Rage by Orly
2. Gold glitter (no name to be found) by Wet and Wild
3. Miss Fancy Pants by Essie
4. Punk Purple by Elf
5. In Stitches by Essie
6. Decoded by Orly
7. Wild Wisteria by Orly
8. Plum Nior by Orly
9. Bordeaux by Essie
10. Size Matters by Essie

Autumnal nails aren’t as easy to translate as spring inspired nails, but here is my second fall nail attempt of the season! Gold sponged on top of sage green. I like that this technique gives a gold leaf appearance.

Used:
Spanish Moss by Revlon
Luxe by Orly

You may have seen both of these polishes in my Top Ten Favorite Summer Polishes, and let me tell you, I REALLY love them. For this look I painted my nails with Essie’s A Splash of Grenadine, taped off a triangle with good ole scotch tape, and painted Orly’s Rage in the triangle. Easy as pie!
I can’t get enough of this pink color. Pink is a hard color for me to wear. Baby pink makes my skin look dirty and hot pink makes my skin look sallow. I think this cool toned medium pink is my perfect pink!

I asked Ray what I should call these and he said fruit loop nails, which I think is pretty fitting. Summer nails to the max. For this look I used a makeup sponge to pat on A Splash of Grenadine by Essie, The More the Merrier by Essie and Green With Envy by Orly.

As you can probably tell, I’m still super obsessed with with gold polish. My favorite gold by far is Orly’s Luxe, which is what I put on the tips for this look. Is gold considered a neutral? Because if it’s not, I plan on making it one. I was consistently wearing reds and pinks for several weeks, in honor of Valentine’s Day, but it was time for a change. Someone told me these nails looked Art Deco… so that’s what I’m going with! Haha.
