Portal Nails

Here are my Portal nails!  For any of you who have never played Portal, you definitely should.  It was a really awesome game, really frustrating and fun at the same time!  I have yet to play Portal 2, but my boyfriend gifted it to me on Steam, so I will soon!  I used Black Heart from Sally Hansen Hard as Nails, White On from Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear, Hot Tamale from Pure Ice, NetApp Blue from NetApp, Kiss Me Here from Pure Ice, and a pink from OPI that I don't have the name for, sorry!  I think they turned out fairly well and were my first experiment using fine nail brushes!  If you're interested in doing nail art, I would definitely buy a nail brush set from eBay.  They're only about $2 and are a great price for the product you get!

4th of July Marbled Nails

Here are my Fourth of July nails!  This was my first attempt at water marbling and I'm fairly satisfied with the results!  They're still rather messy, I didn't clean them up very well, but the patterns look pretty interesting!  I used Rock N Red from Petites, NetApp Blue from NetApp, and White On from Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear.

Green Holo Nails

Here's an interesting combination that ended up turning out really cool!  Please excuse the fact that it's chipping, these are already a couple of days old.  This is Daze by Petites over Rain Forest by Revlon Colorstay.  I really like the almost holographic effect that this got from the dark and light contrast.  Also, I'm quite fond of green nail polish :)

Partly Cloudy Nails

Here are my partyly-cloudy nails!  They were the first nail art that I did :)  I used White On and Mellow Yellow by Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear and Coastal Surf by Revlon Colorstay.  I think they turned out quite well!

Hey!

Hey everyone!
My name is Leah and I have decided that I'm going to create a blog to share my nail art with those who are interested!  I kind of tried this with Tumblr, but I didn't really like it.  I don't know, nothing against Tumblr, but it wasn't accomplishing what I wanted.  I would love for people to read this blog or at least see the pictures and be inspired/entertained by them!  I will try to include the nail polishes used in each of the art.  Thanks and I hope there will eventually be viewers of this page!
