Above The Curve: Fallen Angel

Hello,

Happy Thanksgiving!! I hope all of you had an awesome time with your families. I am pleased to share 'Fallen Angel' with you. Fallen Angel is created by a husband and wife team of Above The Curve.

Above The Curve has made their mission to raise awareness for Shriners Hospitals for Children and Scoliosis. They have also donated money to Breast Cancer Research Foundation through their nail polishes. Also, $1 of every bottle sold is donated to Shriners Hospitals for Children.

Fallen Angel is a holographic nail polish with purple, blue, and pink shimmer. The holographic effect in Fallen angel is much stronger than the Blue Eyed Girl. For me, the holographic effect was much stronger during the day and purple, pink, and blue shimmer were more prominent in the evening. It's like, I am wearing two different polishes, which is a good thing for me. The formula of this polish is perfect and applies like a charm and is opaque in 3 coats. Fallen Angel has a really good wear time too. I am wearing this polish from the past 4 days and all I have got is two small chips. For this mani, I applied three coats of Fallen Angel over 1 coat of Wet N Wild. 

You can purchase Fallen Angel at their Big cartel Store for $8 and at their Etsy Store for $9.
You can also purchase the mini Blue Eyed Girl for $4.50 at their Big cartel Store.

Above The Curve: Blue Eyed Girl

Hello,

How is everyone doing? I hope all of you are having an awesome time. I am very excited to share this new nail polish 'Blue Eyed Girl' with you. Blue Eyed Girl is created by a husband and wife team of Above The Curve.

Above The Curve has made their mission to raise awareness for Shriners Hospitals for Children and Scoliosis. They have also donated money to Breast Cancer Research Foundation through their nail polishes. Also, $1 of every bottle sold is donated to Shriners Hospitals for Children.

Blue Eyed Girl is an electric blue holographic nail polish (so much awesomeness in one sentence). The first thing that came to my mind when I applied this polish was "Wow it Glows" The holographic effect in Blue Eyed Girl is subtle and it was really hard to capture the effect in the pictures. The formula of this polish is perfect and applies like a charm and is opaque in 3 coats. Blue Eyed Girl has a really good wear time. I am wearing this polish from the past 5 days and all I have got is a very small chip on my index finger. For this mani, I applied three coats of Blue Eyed Girl.

You can purchase Blue Eyed Girl at their Big cartel Store for $8 and at their Etsy Store for $9.
You can also purchase the mini Blue Eyed Girl for $4.50 at their Big cartel Store.
PS: They offer FREE Shipping too.

Democrats Vs. Republicans

Hello,

How is everyone doing? Tomorrow is a very important day for the people in United States. I really hope that those of you who are eligible to vote will vote. I do not care which party you choose but please vote. I will be voting as well but I won't disclose my preference (drama free zone). I am also volunteering to be a poll worker and good news is that I am stationed at a Fire Station (Super Hot Firemen :D). The only downside in that I will be there from 6 in the morning till 9 at night.

For this, I applied 2 costs of Essie Blanc. On accent finger, I made a Democrat sign using Primary Red and Deep Ultra Blue and for the white dots I used .015" white hex glitters. Using the same colors I drew the Republican sign on my middle finger. On the remaining fingers and thumb I drew stripes using the Red acrylic paint and on top of the one-third of the nail I used blue acrylic paint and applied silver holographic stars. 

The Battle Nail Polish Challenge Day 1

Hello,

I am so excited to be a part of The Battle Nail Polish Challenge as it has been a really long time since I last participated in a nail challenge. This is my first post for the this Challenge. The theme for today's nails was to create a green and blue manicure. I really like how this manicure turned out. I hope you guys like it too. 

For this, I applied 2 coats of Zoya Song. Then applied Best Glue Ever on all the nails, which I thinned down with water to almost 30-40% as it is easy to apply when thinned down. After the glue dried (it becomes transparent) I applied 1 mm neon green glitters on the tips of all the fingers except the ring finger on which I drew the spiral design using the same glitters.

Tutorial: Scotch Tape Nails

Hello,

How is everyone doing? I hope all of you are having an awesome time. I am changing the way I used to do tutorials. So instead of having individual pictures and steps, I will have one big picture showing all the steps. I switched to this method because it is very convenient to pin (Yay! for pinterest lovers) the tutorial. I hope you guys like this new method.

I got many requests for the scotch tape tutorial so here is the tutorial for my beloved fans. Steps of the tutorial are at the bottom. This mani is very easy to do. All you need is scotch tape and scissors. Also, you need to have time in your hands and a lot of patience.

You can check my previous scotch tape nails here and here.

Steps:

1. Apply polish on you nails and tape the bottom one-third of the nail. Make sure the polish is completely dry otherwise the tape will ruin the polish. Also, make sure that the tape is not too sticky. 
2. Apply the polish of different color (second color) on the nail. The polish will only cover the remaining two-thirs of the nail.
3. Remove the tape as soon as you finished applying polish. Do not let the polish dry.
4. Repeat the Step 1 and cover the bottom two-third of the nail with the tape.
5.  Apply the polish of different color (third color) on the nail. The polish will only cover the top one-third of the nail.
6. Repeat Step 3 and apply top coat.

Items used: 
Polish: Zoya Ibiza, China Glaze For Audrey, and Essie School of Hard Rocks
Top Coat: Seche Vite
Others: Scotch Tape and Scissors

I will appreciate any suggestions or comments.

Thanks for looking.
