Thad and I don’t do a whole lot for Valentine’s Day, we like to
keep it low key. This year (and last year) I asked for nail polish instead of
flowers or chocolates. As I my collection of polish is growing, Thad is having
a harder time finding colors to get me, so this year he got me a gift card to
Sally’s. Getting a gift card for nail polish is like getting two gifts in one;
I love shopping for polish. I didn’t get quite as good of a deal as the last
time I had a gift card to Sally’s but I did manage to add three colors to my
collection and get more polish remover and cotton rounds. None of those colors are in this manicure
though since these are the nails I had on Valentine’s Day.
For this manicure I used China Glaze Rich & Famous, Fast Track,
and Mahogany Magic, Orly Liquid Vinyl, and Sally Hansen CSM Shell We Dance? and All Fired Up. I think they look like
mobster wife nails, like I’m married to Ray Liotta from Goodfellas.
Leopard Heart Print tips
There is a little tip wear in the pictures and I think this
is mostly because I only put one coat of FastTrack on the tips. Normally it wears super well, but one coat just wasn’t
enough. I’m very pleased with these nails, I free handed all the hearts and
some of them came out downright awesome. The one on my ring finger was the
first one I did and it turned out amazing. J
I impressed myself
I’ve never been good at drawing hearts so I was a bit surprised
that these came out as well as they did. I should have done less of the regular
spots so they tips weren’t quite as crowded and perhaps more of the hearts so
that it looked more Valentiney.
Sad short thumb nail
I have so many ideas for my new polish, I hope everyone had
a great Valentine’s Day!
