#52weeknailchallenge: Valentine's day

I know I said that I didn't do anything for this prompt in my previous post, but I decided to share what I was wearing. I think red holo does count.
This is two coats of Hean I love Hean 424 and a holo top coat.
I was planning on only wearing 424, but I wanted some sparkle. So I added one coat of Starrily eclipse.
Flash shot for the holo and I think I should mention these pics were taking with three days of wear. Even now almost a week later, I'm impressed with the lack of tip wear (except for Cindy) and it still shines.
So what do you think?

Thanks for reading!!

#52weeknailchallenge: valentine's day

Happy Valentine's day I guess... I'm not very excited by this, since it's just a normal day. I still have to work and deal with shit.

Anyway, first up I have a swatch for you. This is I love Hean 876 from the pastel collection.
Two coats and no top coat. It's a little thin on the first coat but it levels nicely. This is a very pretty pink!
I then used some ziggy zaggy vinyls from becauseishop and I love Hean 877 also from the pastel collection on my index, middle and ring fingers. Removing the vinyls immediately while the polish was still wet. I then top coated my middle finger as I was going to use another vinyl.
On my index and ring finger I added some decals I got some time ago from BPS. On my middle finger I used a stencil from Revlon and SC snow me white. I added some decals over that too.
I can't believe we up to week 7 of the 52 week challenge already. Mind you this month is already on it's last legs.
What do you think of my valentine's day mani? I know this one passes, but what's your opinion?

Thanks for stopping by!

Holo heartbeat

So today's mani wasn't quite what I wanted and I ended up covering up my oops. But it worked. So I started with two coats of Catrice Crushed Crystals Shooting Star on my pinky. One coat of Hean Jungle Pop #274 on my thumb and middle finger.
I topcoated my middle finger as I wanted to use vinyls. I used a skinny heartbeat vinyl from TwinkledT and painted a thick coat of Hean Ordinary Misfit.
I wanted to stamp with Hean #274, but it didn't work. So I ended up doing a saran wrap on my index and ring finger with Ordinary Misfit and #274.
I love these saran wraps. They so easy and the end effect is awesome. So this is my first Valentines mani for the year. When my colleague saw this, her response was, "why isn't it blue?" So I guess I'm gonna have to do a blue saran wrap at some stage. What do you think?
