Show Me Your Nails 2.0

[Tamara76]

Due to some technical glitches with the original Show Me Your Nails Thread, I am starting a new thread with @vegchililover78's blessing (She says "hello," by the way!).

Please share your nail looks, nail art and manicures!

...And don't forget to check out @Beadshopgirl's Nail Stamping Thread for stamping inspiration! ❤️

Thank you so much for your encouraging words @Titian06 🤗 I really appreciate them! You are completely right, the amount of polish played a role in most cases and I am blaming the polish (regular and new instead of stamping polish) “Of course, it has to be that, not me!” 😜 I have my basket ready to check out with some stamping polishes, just waiting for some nice BF deal 😁. The problem is that, after that, I won’t be able to blame anything other than myself for my failures! 😅

[RGbrown]

Couple new deals!

$5 Morgan Taylor at Sally; end date unknown. Includes everything except the the fall collection (it's on clearance, though only for $7.xx right now)

And Cirque has early access to their BF sale; 20% off plus a gwp at $80. This runs today and tomorrow, then I assume there will be a new code on Monday, same deal (minus the gwp if it sells out). Code EARLY20

 

[Saradestin]

And the deals keep coming @RGbrown! 😁

@RGbrown  I just left the city and didn’t stop at Sally’s for once. Maybe I need to turn around! 

[Titian06]

@RGbrown - Yep, I stopped by Sally's this morning and picked up three more MTs. 😄

I decided to pull out my chrome powder again for this winter nail look!

[Mellmars1185]

@ather I really like this winter mani! ❄️

[ather]

@Mellmars1185  Thank you!! I love a winter mani! 

[CynthieLu]

Very seasonal @ather these look so fun and awesome 🤍 well done!

[ather]

@CynthieLu  Thanks! Getting use to chrome powders was a process!

[Shosh85]

@ather  Oh, so gorgeous, like a winter wonderland! I agree, snowflakes would be a nice touch! ❄️

[ather]

@Shosh85  I agree. I think I could do my left hand but my right might be tricky!

[Saradestin]

Wow @ather ! That’s stunning! 😵😵😍😍 And it is pure winter, so icy looking! It is true that a few snowflakes ❄️ would make it look so pretty! 😃 I have a snowflake stamping plate that I want to try, but who knows if I will be able to make it work! 😅😅😅 I already started my stamping journey and it was a hit or miss (with few hits an a bunch of misses 🙈) But it’s so much fun! 

[ather]

@Saradestin  Oooo stamping looks so much fun. I haven’t taken the plunge yet. Doesn’t mean I won’t lol. I’m looking into the magnetic polishes right now!! Can’t wait to see what you do!!

[Titian06]

Gorgeous mani, @ather , and it looks great with your silver ring! 🤩

[ather]

@Titian06  Thank you!  Everything needs to match!!! 

[RGbrown]

@ather 

This is flipping fantastic! 🤍✨ Bless you and your patience with chrome powders 😅

[ather]

@RGbrown  I think it’s less patience and more I am stubborn. I spent the money on it I will make it work. Lol. I’m pretty stubborn like that. I was just at a winners and I saw an opi chrome effects no wipe top coat. But it didn’t say gel on it. I assumed it was regular polish I kinda wish I grabbed it but I figured I would just continue the way I’m doing it. 

[RGbrown]

@ather 

This one? 👀 It works well if you want to try doing it with regular polish, but honestly, I think gel is the easier route with powders. I never pull mine out because I don't have a gel setup, and it's just so fussy to mess with 😕

 

[ather]

@RGbrown  Nope. It was different. I bet it’s the gel version maybe? 

 It was this one! 

[RGbrown]

@ather 

Ah, yup, that's the gel version! I had it too (I found a set at Burke's with the one I posted, plus this one, and two of their powders), but when I went to play with it, it was cured solid in the bottle somehow, and I wound up breaking the brush stem out of the top trying to get it open 🤣 AFAIK, it's just a no-wipe topcoat, which you've already got under control!
