Glow in the dark table lamp nail art


I know, it's not my usual creepy kind of glow in the dark nail art that you're used to... It's an adapted recreation of one of my own designs, the 'plugged in' 3D nail art that I did back in May. This time I used Serum No. 5 Sky Lights to light up the lamp with a pretty blue glow, and I have a video tutorial that will show you how to make this! Click to see more!

4 designs I never posted


These are all designs that seemed amazing in my head, but just didn't quite have it, at least not enough to give them the full attention of a blog post. I want to show you that nobody is perfect, I fail all the time but I never let it stop me!

I did a series of Nail Fail Files (episode 1 and episode 2) last year and got a tremendous amount of hate about calling them fails. While other people would love to have these on their nails, please understand that I just didn't have that 'click' with these designs but instead of shoving them under a rug, I'm hanging out my disappointments for all of you to enjoy :)
