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! ❤️

Yes, yea, yes @ather! I know I get used to certain looks - for the longest time, I only wore neural, light colors on my nails and mostly reds or pinks on my toes with othe colors on some occasions, Then the lockdowns gave me opportunities to play more with my mani and well … 😝 We see where that’s gone! Hahaha! Definitely wear some of this colors on your nails - I think they’d look amazing. 😍 Your nails are a beautiful length and shape. 💅🏼

@itsfi  thank you!! You’re tooo sweet! I actually need to take them down a bit. I can barley use my phone when they get too long!! 

[Kim888]

Such a nice color @ather !

[ather]

@Kim888  thank you!

@ather I really like this shade too! I am painting my nails today and needed some Valentine's inspiration 💞

[ather]

@Mellmars1185  oooo I can’t wait to see what you pick out! I need another inspiration too because I’ll have to redo before Valentine’s Day

@ather 

That's a gorgeous purple 😍 Hooray for moving it up to your hands! 💜

[ather]

@RGbrown  Thank you!! I need to move up more of my toe only colours to my hands! 

[CookieGirl1]

That's really pretty, @ather!

@CookieGirl1  Thank you!

It's not quite 70% off, but BOGO polishes plus free brushes is a decent deal nonetheless! Code BG23 thru the 10th at Zoya

🙈🙈🙈🙈 This is so tempting!!! But I think I am going to resist and wait for a 70% off and get a bunch of polishes to make the shipping worth it 😜

[Shosh85]

@RGbrown  I'm tempted! 

[RGbrown]

It's not up on Orly's site yet, but there's been a quiet new addition over at Ulta: Orly x NASA polish and strips 🚀

 

[CookieGirl1]

@RGbrown I may be in the minority but I thought that the polishes themselves were ugly!

[RGbrown]

@CookieGirl1 

I'm so torn between "not my style" and "but that's a really neat collab" 🤔 The black holo looks fine to me, but I don't wear a ton of black and I've got at least one if not two or three close enough to it that I shouldn't grab that one. Warm reds aren't really my thing, so I doubt I have a dupe of that one...might get that one at some point as an "expand my horizons" polish. The gold ones can jump in a lake as far as I'm concerned though...I don't like gold enough to even consider either one of those.

Such a cute theme @RGbrown! The nail stickers look very pretty

Soft purple skittle mix for today 💜

Both pics are close, but neither is perfect color wise 😐

Full sun shows the grey tones of the dustier shades, but I feel the colors are a touch washed out here

Shade brightens them up a bit, though perhaps pulls a touch bluer than real life, especially on the middle finger 

From pinky to thumb:

Morgan Taylor It's All About The Twill: mid toned dusty purple with pearl shimmer. Gorgeous color, easy two coater (possibly even a one coater if you are so inclined)

Orly November Fog: dusty lavender with a slight hint of pink. The first coat was sheer, nearly jelly like, but the second gave me nearly full opacity (three coats here because I nicked it, whoops, though I may have done three anyways because my nail line was still slightly visible)

Glisten Glow There's Snow Bunny Like You: clear light purple, not dusty at all. I don't generally buy creams from indies (pretty sure this is my first ever), but I've realized my light purple creams are actually fairly scant, especially ones that don't have a grey or dusty undertone, and this looked like it would fill that gap nicely. Super duper easy two coater, which is always impressive to me with pastels.

Cote No. 82: dusty lavender, slightly less pink than the Orly on my ring finger. Lovely color, terrible skinny brush with no replacement that I know of (Cupcake's cap will fit, but Cupcake's brush is too long, sigh). I am fairly certain (80% sure? Why can't I remember? 😂) that I got this down in two coats though, so it wasn't all bad. 

Zoya Nyx: soft purple Pixie with silver microglitter. Three coats for opacity, but they were easy peasy.

@RGbrown Nyx is so gorgeous!  I love how you paired it so well with the other colors.
