Beautifully Disney "Enchanted Kiss"

Hi guys and happy Monday!  It was a very busy day but here's a happy cheerful pink to make the day even better!  So without further ado, today's nail polish is Beautifully Disney's "Enchanted Kiss" which came as part of a mini set from Walt Disney World.  Here's how "Enchanted Kiss" looks like in the bottle:

"Enchanted Kiss" is a bubblegum pink creme nail polish.  The formula of this polish was slightly thick but it still applied well to my nails.  After two coats "Enchanted Kiss" was fully opaque but did have a few noticeable streak marks.  In terms of chipping, I was able to wear "Enchanted Kiss" for three days before there were some chips.  Here's how this polish looks up close:

Overall I have mixed feelings about Beautifully Disney's "Enchanted Kiss."  I absolutely adore this color but I wish the formula and wear time was a little better.  That being said I'll probably keep "Enchanted Kiss" in my collection for a while longer.

Disney for Target "Red"

Hey all and happy Tuesday!  The final nail polish for today is Disney for Target's "Red."  This came as part of a trio that included a white creme and silver Mickey head glitter.  Look at how adorable this bottle is:

"Red" is a bright red creme.  The formula of "Red" was amazing and applied really well to my nails.  After only one coat this polish was entirely opaque and streak free.  However I applied a second coat to test the wear time.  As for chipping, I was able to wear "Red" for five days before there were a few minor chips.  Look at this pretty up close:

Overall I am thrilled with Disney for Target's "Red."  Everything about this nail polish is perfect and I plan to wear it again and again!

Emoji Nail Art

Hey guys and happy Monday!  Today's nail polish is actually some nail art featuring emojis!  (We all love to use them so I couldnt resist putting them on my nails!)  Here are the nail polishes I selected to create the design:

Disney for Target's "White", China Glaze's "Lemon Fizz" and "Living In The Elmo-ment", Maniology's "Straight Up Black" and Sinful Colors "Mist-erious."

To create the design I first painted my nails white using Disney for Target's "White."  My nails looked like this:

Next I used China Glaze's "Lemon Fizz" to create the Emoji's faces and China Glaze's "Living In The Elmo-ment" for the heart.  My nails then looked like this:

After that I used Maniology's "Straight Up Black" to add the details.  Here's how some of the emojis looked up close:

Overall I am disappointed in my ability to re-create emojis.  My freehand nails still need some practice.  Maybe I'll try to re-create this design in the future to see if I am improved!  But still the emojis are adorable!

USA Flag Nails

Hello everyone and happy Thursday!  Today's nail art celebrates the Forth of July, which is a US holiday that celebrates our independence from Britain.  So I decided to create an ode to the US flag in honor of the holiday.  Here are the nail polishes I selected:

Zoya "Sooki," Disney for Target "White," and Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear "Royal Rage."

After selecting nail polishes I painted two coats of Disney for Target's "White on my middle, ring and pinky finger and three coats of Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear's "Royal Rage on my pointer finger.  My nails then looked like this:

Next I used a small brush to draw on the red stripes with Zoya's "Sooki" and a dotting tool with Disney for Target's "White" to create the stars.  Here's how the design looked up close:

Feather Nail Art

Hey guys and welcome to the weekend!  Today instead of nail polish I decided to practice my stamping skills and create some feather nails!  First I needed to pick out the nail polish:

Disney for Target "White," Bundle Monster Color "Straight Up Black," OPI "Hopelessly Devoted To OPI," Sinful Colors "Treasure Chest," Illimite "La Femme Fleur" and Zoya "Aster."

After selecting my polishes I painted my nails with two coats of Disney for Target's "White" and put on Live Love Polish's Precision Peel Cuticle protector.  My nails then looked like this:

Next up was to select the stamping plate!  I picked out Maniology's MXM002 which features several different feathers.  Here's how the plate looks:

I decided to stamp with Bundle Monster Color's "Straight Up Black" and then reverse stamp with the colored polishes to create the final look.  I dab the colorful nail polish on to the stamp I used some basic dotting tools from Amazon.  In the end my ails looked adorable and I think I was pretty successful at reverse stamping this time!

If you want to know more about Disney for Target's "White", Sinful Colors "Treasure Chest" or Illimite's "La Femme Fleur" check out some of my previous posts!

Overall I am really pleased with this attempt to reverse stamp and create some colorful feathers!  I can't wait to try this technique again and hope to keep improving with each design.

Easter Nail Art

Hi everyone and Happy Easter to those who celebrate.  In honor of the Easter Bunny's arrival I decided to create some Easter egg nails.  Here are the nail polishes I pulled out for this freehand design:

Disney for Target's "White", Sinful Colors "Cash Out", Zoya's "Saint", OPI's "Exotic Birds Do Not Tweet", Sally Hansen Insta-Dri's "Melon", Illimite's "Pale Fire", China Glaze's "Shine-nanigans" and Illyrian's "Morpheus."

First I used two coats of Disney for Target's "White" as the base color for my nails.  My nails then looked like this:

Next up I used some dotting tools from Amazon and a small brush from Maniology to begin creating designs.  Here are the tools:

Each nail turned out nicely but my favorite design was definitely my middle finger, with my ring finger in a close second.  They turned out so gorgeous:

Here's a breakdown of what nail polish was used on each nail:

Pointer Finger: Has a base of OPI's "Exotic Birds Do Not Tweet" with a coat of China Glaze's "Shine-nangians" on top.  The plaid is Sinful Colors "Cash Out" and Sally Hansen Insta-Dri's "Melon.

Middle Finger: Zoya's "Saint" as a base with Disney for Target's "White" to create they wavy design.

Ring Finger: Sally Hansen Insta-Dri's "Melon" with a coat of Illyrian's "Morpheus" for the gorgeous shimmer.  Then OPI's "Exotic Birds Do Not Tweet" for the polka dots.

Pinky Finger: Sinful Colors "Cash Out" as the base with Illimite's "Pale Fire" of the chevron pattern.

Orly "Devil May Care"

Hey everyone and welcome to the weekend!  Today's nail polish is Orly's "Devil May Care" which has an absolutely great name!  (Half of my enjoyment of nail polish is how creative the names are!) Here's how this beauty looks in the bottle:

"Devil May Care" is unsurprisingly a red and gold glitter in a clear base coat.  The formula of this nail polish is interesting - sometimes I found it easy to apply evenly and other times I struggled to get the glitter off the brush.  As "Devil May Care" is in a clear base coat it was never meant to be opaque so I decided to test it out over some creme polishes!

The first combination is "Devil May Care" over Disney for Target's "White."  This combination was very basic and made the perfect combination for some Valentine's nail art!

The second pairing was "Devil May Care" over Sephora Formula X's "Nightingale."  I was surprised how pretty this combo was!  The glitter really popped on the dark color to create a unique vampy look!

Overall I like Orly's "Devil May Care."  The glitter combination is happy and fun and goes nicely with anything I paired with it!  I can safely say "Devil may Care" will be staying in my collection for a long time to come!

Neon Water Marble

Hello everyone and happy Wednesday!  Today's nail polish is actually some nail art - or rather an attempt at nail art.  I always love how water marble nails look but I continue to struggle recreating it, but I've decided to give it another go today.  First off I selected some bright Spring colors:

Disney for Target "White", OPI "How Does Your Zen Garden Grow?", Essie "Full Steam Ahead", Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear "Daisy Dukes" and China Glaze "Pink Voltage."

After setting up my supplies, I applied a base coat and then a single coat of Disney for Target "White" as the base for the design.  Next I used some cuticle peel protector to make the clean up easier and after that it was drops of polish onto the water.  The designs were then created using dotting tools from Amazon. Here's how the prettiest nail looked:

The final thing to do was clean up the nails and apply Orly "Sec N' Dry" as the quick drying top coat to seal the design in!  And then I had a finished look:

If you want to know more about Disney for Target's "White", China Glazes "Pink Voltage" or Live Love Polish's "Precision Peel" check out my posts from earlier this year!

Overall I think I got better as I went but only one of the four nails shown were decent enough to be work out!  (Shout out to the ring finger!). I think I should keep up the practice!

Baseball Nails

Hello everyone and happy Monday!  The sunshine was out and it finally feels like Spring - which can only mean one thing: BASEBALL!  So today's nail polish is actually some fun and simple baseball nail art to celebrate!  First I needed to pick out some polishes:

Disney for Target's "White" and China Glaze's "Hey Sailor."

In case you haven't seen a baseball here's a picture from Google Images to give you an idea:

To start off the design I applied three coats of Disney for Target's "White."  My nails looked like this:

After that I used some nail art tools and China Glaze's "Hey Sailor" to draw on the design.  I used some of my tools from Amazon - just a basic set of dotting tools and brushes.  Then my nails looked like this:

Disney for Target "White"

Hello guys and welcome back to another work week.  Today's nail polish is a white nail polish with no official name - so I have been calling it Disney for Target's "White."  It looked like this in the bottle:

And it came in a trio that looks like this:

The formula of this white creme is really good and it applied nicely to my nails.  After two coats the polish was completely opaque with only a a little streak here or there.  In terms of chipping, I was able to wear this nail polish for four days before I noticed some small chips.  Look at this nice white up close:

Overall I am very pleased with Disney for Target's "White."  A good white creme goes a long way in my nail polish collection and I cannot wait to keep using this nail polish to create some great nail art!
