Poison Ivy....?

So last week's nails were a disaster.  I wasn't even planning to post them but I still want to keep track of the good, the bad, and the ugly of my nail adventures.

Glitter and Hearts

So I decided to go with pink for this week's color. I was doing Black Friday shopping and picked up a bottle of Opi by Nicole - Love Your Life at Target. It was $6.50, which isn't much of a bargain but I couldn't help it. The pink hearts and glitter were too pretty to pass up!

(Confetti - Glass Slipper/CQ - Peachy Keen/Nicole by O.P.I. - Love Your Life)

I started off with a layer of Sally Hansen as a base and then added two coats of CQ's peachy keen. The actual hearts and glitter were a lot more difficult to apply than I imagined. The brush wouldn't pick up the little plastic hearts and when I did grab one...well they didn't exactly stick. But eventually I got the hang of it and was able to place a few hearts on each nail.


I added an extra layer of clear top coat on top to make sure the hearts didn't fall off.
