Happy Easter! +Mani

     I just wanna take a quick minute to wish everybody a happy Easter! If you don't celebrate Easter than I hope you have a fabulous Sunday! The Easter Bunny dropped of some Peeps, chocolate, an EOS lip balm, and $25 Amazon Gift Card. 


Easter Gradient
  
     For this mani I put 3 coats of Revlon Blue Lagoon, a beautiful pastel blue that has a slight silver shimmer. Then I sponged on Orly Cotton Candy, my go-to light pink. This is the second gradient I have ever done and even though it could have been better, I still like it a lot! Plus it matches the dress I'm wearing today.

Neon Squares

About a week ago I purchased  Color Club Poptastic! set of 7 from TJ-Maxx for about 10 dollars. The set features some beautiful neons that aren't that hard to photograph (score!) So like any nail addict I went home and immediately painted my nails :)


Color Club- Poptastic, Wham! Pow!, and Almost Famous 

For this look I painted one coat of white and blocked off areas with stripping tape. This is one of the first times I have ever really used stripping tape so it was a little rough. Then I alternated different colors. I really love how this came out and can't wait to try this technique again with different colors!
