My 2nd Attempt At A Tape Mani

Sorry we haven't posted in like forever.  We've been really busy and haven't been able to paint our nails/ blog about them very often.  From now on we're going to try to post at least twice a week.  This is my second try at using striping tape.  It came out pretty sloppy.  I used China Glaze Cheers To You, OPI Save Me, OPI Black Onyx, and CG Fairy Dust.  For More Pictures and more info on how I did this click "Read More"

Tiffany & Co Inspired Manicure

This manicure was inspired by Tiffany&Co.  I love Tiffany blue and China Glaze For Audrey is pretty close to spot on.  I used For Audrey on all my nails excluding my ring finger.  I put a little black half moon on my thumb using OPI Black Onyx, which I also used on my ring finger.  I put a half pearl border around the half moon.  I used a coat of OPI I Juggle... Men on all my fingers to add a little bit of sparkle.  On my ring finger I put a rhinestone and a half pearl next to each other and surrounded it with little gold metal balls.  It was my first time using the balls and it was a little difficult, so those are a little sloppy.  I really liked this mani, but the pearls were a bit bulkier than I would've liked.  Tell me what you think and remember to follow Mai Maddie Pedi!

Shifty Silver Mani

This mani was actually on my right hand when I did my V mani, because I'm right handed and don't usually have the patience to do complicated nail art when I know it won't come out as cleanly as my left hand.  I used OPI Black Onyx and Pearl of Wisdom and Deborah Lippmann Today Was A Fairytale.  For more pictures and a detailed explanation click the "Read More" button.

Golden Prom Nails

         This mani was originally created to show my friend the gold polishes that I could paint her nails for prom.  I ended up really liking it, but my friend decided she wanted  something different that was more complicated.  The colors I used in this were Deborah Lippmann Believe and Boom Boom Pow and OPI Spark de Triomphe.  Click 'Read More' for more pictures and a more detailed explanation if this mani.
