Poolside Neon Look

A couple weekends ago, I got to run away to Florida for a hot minute. It was warm and glorious and I never wanted to leave. Of course I had to have an appropriate pool side mani, which you saw a sneak peek at over on Instagram, that is if you follow me. I really wanted to use some of my neon polishes...well...because NEON! I feel in love with this design and used it as my inspiration.
I started off with a two thin coats of China Glaze Plur-ple on all fingers except my ring finger. Can we pause and talk about Plur-ple's formula for a minute? It's superb! Two coats, easy coverage, applies like buttah! On my ring finger I started with a base of Essie Tuck in my Tux, since I needed a neutral base.
I then went in with China Glaze DJ Blue My Mind, Celtic Sun (yellow), Pool Party (pink), Treble Maker (green) and Plur-ple and added dry blushed blobs of color. Finally I used a thin nail art brush and Cirque Colors Memento Mori to add the black accents.
What do you think of this look? Yay or nay?
Enjoy & until next time, Amy Lee

#StampingSaturday: Run Away with Me

ITS THE WEEKEND!!!!! I've never been more excited. Life has been insane at work this week and it is FINALLY over.
My #StampingSaturday look started with a base of Essie Tuck in my Tux. Never in my life have I been more disappointed by a polish. In my mind a white jelly polish sounded awesome. However, after 3 coats, there is no leveling this sucker out. It's patchy and just weird.
Because the base was ugly, I naturally decided to stamp over it. I used Mundo de Unas Holland Blue and Uber Chic plates 1-01 and 2-03 for this look. I'm totally in love with the waves paired with the seahorses.
I swear the crispness of these MdU polishes blows me away everytime. Have you been dreaming of running off lately? Where would you go? Be sure to check out all the other stamped looks below!
Enjoy & until next time, Amy Lee
