Nail Art for Nubs Link-Up

December has been a good month for Nail Art so far. Participating in a couple different challenges always is encouraging to do more than just swatches. Today I am participating with another Nail Art for Nubs Link-Up.

Polishes Used:
-OPI - Nail Envy
-Elevation Polish - Exc. Proto Hovd Darkness
-OPI - Get Me Your Number
-OPI - Can't Let Go

For this look I did something fairly simple than can be adapted to any length of nails. I started with a base of the Elevation polish; once that was completely dry, I added 3 strips of striping tape and polished the bottom with Get Me Your Number and the top with Can't Let Go. If you have shorter nails you could add 2 strips of tape or even 1 and just leave it with two colors.

I really like this look and think it's super easy to create, so if you end up re-creating it; please make sure to share with me either on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter! And of course, don't forget to see what all the other ladies did with their shorties!

Ninja Polish - Glamorous

Today I have something special to share with you! I recently received my first Ninja Polish from my friend Alyson. It is Ninja Polish - Glamorous (and glamorous it is!!)

This is an amazing blurple with serious holo. I am wearing two coats of Glamorous here for the photos. I added a top coat of HK Girl after the pictures (I didn't want to ruin the holo) and when I put it on, turns out it didn't really ruin it. I wore this mani for 24hrs+ which for me is a long time, and got tons of compliments on it!!

Do you own any Ninja Polish shades? I will absolutely be picking up another to add to my collection, and thanks again Alyson!!

Tape Mani & Color Comparison

Back to work today :( BOO, but at least its a short week!

Today I am wearing a tape mani that I created with two of my Wet 'n Wild Megalast polishes.

Polishes Used:

-Nailtiques - Formula 2 Plus

-Wet 'n Wild - On A Trip

-Wet 'n Wild - I Need A Refresh-Mint

-OTD

Ever since I got my tape earlier this summer, I really like being able to create nice clean tape mani's! I think this looks good and love the color combo. 

When I put the On A Trip on, I couldn't help but think that I have another polish that looks exactly like it, Funky Fingers Cheshire, so here we have, my first post with a comparison!!

In the warm light of my living room, I was sure these were going to be dupes, however, lol, once I swatched them and took them to the light box I can see they are clearly not dupes. They are, however, similar. If I could only have one (haha - who ever said that?!) I would prefer On A Trip over Cheshire. I love the shape of the Wet 'n Wild Megalst brush and felt like it was more opaque (though both of these swatches are two coats only).

Which of these blurples is your favorite? Have you tried tape mani's? Do you love them as much as I do?
