Hi There

Cake Pop

Cake Pop

Nude nails have always been a favourite of mine, but add a little pop of pink to nude nail polish and you’ve got me drawing hearts and feeling full of love! Since I had a little pre-summer summer, I already know what nail polish is going to be my favourite this season! I wore this colour, CAKE POP throughout my entire summer holiday in Greece, and it will probably remain my colour of choice as we head into summer here in South Africa! Two summers in a row for me – whose a lucky girl?? Anyhoo! Before we left for our holiday, the lovely Jo-D painted my nails in Shellac Cake Pop. The colour lasted me two weeks and a bit, before it drove me nuts and I had to remove it. Thankfully though, Jodes gave me a bottle of VINYLUX in the exact same colour and Weekly Top Coat to keep me going. For the first couple of days, after my Shellac had grown out, I touched up with VINYLUX, which is the exact same shade, and it worked well. But, I can’t stand my nails looking uneven, so into my third week of Shellac, I had it removed…

Polka Dotty Shellac Nails

Polka Dotty Shellac Nails

I had a really tough time choosing a new colour for my Shellac nails yesterday. I’d been dying to try something from their Spring 2013 Sweet Dreams Collection which has some beautiful pastel colours. But, it was so hard to pick just one! Being indecisive and greedy at the same time, I decided to have a little fun with my nails. The end result (thanks to the amazing Jo-D), was this fun, polka dotty nail art design. I love it! This is such a fun nail art design, and I’m really digging it! It makes me feel like a kid again. Best of all, (like a kid) I got my way, by getting to wear three of the new colours, all at the same time! To achieve this nail art design, here are the colours that were used: Thumb – Cake Pop *new Index Finger – Gotcha (an old favourite) Middle Finger – Azure Wish *new Ring Finger – Cream Pop (white) with polka dots using Blackpool Pinky – Limeade *new with a thin layer of Romantique The lime green on my pinky finger is quite a metallic shade and, on it’s own, it didn’t really compliment the pastel-pretty design. So, to mattify…
