Some Current Trends
Striking Top Coats
Shatter/crackles, holographic shimmers, decals, glitter, gems, lace topping (you pretty much glue very thin lace onto your nail)
I saw this neat thing with fishnets! First do your main base color. Second, place some pre-cut fishnets on top of your nail and paint over it with a different colour. Third, let it dry and peel it off, voila you have a very striking finish indeed!
Colours
blues, peaches, lavendars, gun metals
Moon Manis
Basically you color your nail one color and the lunula (the whitish part close to your cuticle) is a striking or opposite color!
Metallics
pretty self explanitory!
Pop Art Graphics
dots, checkers, leopard, you name it! I especially like plaid and the next gel set I do I may have to try it on someone!
A great thing to use at home are the rub on Sally Hansen graphic polishes. They're really neat, sometimes messy and do not work properly, but for the most part I have enjoyed using them! These are available pretty much every where!
Neutrals, Nudes, and White
beige, sand, and light pinks, white

Shatter and Crackle Polishes
Just wanted to post some pictures of the OPI Shatter and China Glaze Crackle. (In an older post there is a pedi with the Crushed Candy crackle and Ahoy! base for reference)
I currently am in possession of the OPI Black and Silver (Pirates of the Caribbean edition) and China Glaze Crushed Candy. They are pictured below! *I do have the purple Serena one on order, but it looks like that may be a while (as it was a few weeks ago I put it on order).
For those of you unable to purchase these at a supplier, you do have a few options! London Drugs sells a couple different shatter/crackle effects polish one is a brand called Layla (~15$) they have some very vibrant colours (neons and shimmers) and La Rosa (~7$) (darker colours, but still nice). Sephora does also in black, silver, and gold (~15$). Keep in mind these are a very hot item, so they do go fast. (I was lucky enough to have gone when they restocked the shelves and no one else was in the store :D unfortunately they did not get the pink crackle I wanted!)
Other brands of shatter/crackle effects are: Duri, Sally Hansen, Barry M, Mia Secree, Alix Avien. Keep in mind some of these might not be available in Canada, but they are available to order on Amazon!

New Things!!!
So here is my most recent set as well as a pedicure I did over top of it! (Remember, you can always paint over your set if you're bored of it and it will last for a long time!!!) Also some OPI Avojuice products I have for sale! I've also included one of my Konad Image plates (thanks to an awesome friend who was able to get me this because they do not sell them here!). The gel set has the bottom most Konad Image plate design in the pink colour, but is not very visible :(
 |
| OPI Avojuice flavors I have for sale: Caramel Cream, Coconut Melon, Raspberry Violet, Mango Smoothie, Crisp Apple, Jasmine, and Pedicure (has a very light scent) |
 |
| Konad Image plate used with the gel nails above. |

| Another Konad Image plate I used to do this. I used a shadowing technique and I think it looks really neat! |

| Thumb of the manicured set. Same Konad Image plate used as the cherry blossoms and shadowing technique! |

Welcome to my Website!!!
Hello Everyone,
I am glad you could take the time to stop by and have a look at my website. I will try to keep this updated with new photos and relative links and such. I hope you enjoy looking at the nails I have done as much as I enjoyed doing them.
Here are some of the nails I've done. The top picture is my business card (of course minus the personal details) but you can always get a hold of me through here or other means ^_^
