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! ❤️

OPI fall preview: Big Zodiac Energy 

Polish Pick says she'll be doing presales in a couple of weeks, so I'd expect it to start showing up at regular retailers shortly thereafter

@RGbrown Fun collection!

Jumping on the holiday mani train ❤️🤍💙

Bliss Polish Mystic: milky white with subtle white shimmer and silver glitter shards. Super easy, but also sheer, so I went with 4 coats for better opacity. I love the look behind this polish, a simple white crelly with some added interest, and would love something similar but with flat flakies instead of the glitter shreds...some of them are bent and stick up and it drives me nuts. 

China Glaze Dorothy Who?: classic gorgeous deep blue jelly with silver microglitter or flakies. Simple but well done. Three coats for opacity, though folks without dark stains may be happy with two. Super easy, not streaky or gloopy or otherwise difficult in any way.

Orly Just Bitten: deep red crelly. Easy two coater, though I did three because I had to do three of everything else, so why not lol. My index was a comedy of errors, and I know it's smudged, but for how badly I effed it up (multiple times, sigh), it actually looks pretty decent lol. May try and fix it later, but I have to run some errands shortly so it'll have to wait. 

Stamping was also a bit of a mess today. Managed to get my stripes so far off center that a quarter of my nail didn't have any (how did I miss that??), so I had to stamp them twice, resulting in a not so perfect match of the lines. I tried to stamp a layer of shimmer stars over the plain white ones, but took so long lining it up that half of them didn't stick (and the ones that did stick still aren't lined up lol). I had put a blue star on my index, decided I regretted it, took it off as best I could, then touched that nail up with a new layer of red and topcoat, just to smudge the heck out of it a couple of minutes later...it was not my day lol. 

Indirect stormy light, as we are finally getting some much needed rain 🌧

Ummm, is it too early to make an appointment with you to do my nails for the Fourth of July next year? Your mani is outstanding @RGbrown! 😍 Seriously first rate! I looooove the colors, the stamps, all of it! You really outdid yourself - and that was already a high bar!

Come on down! I'd be happy to have a play session on someone else's nails (sorry in advance for making a mess, it's bound to happen lol). Thanks so much! ❤️🤍💙

@RGbrown I love your take on Stars and Stripes! Me those fireworks stamps look amazing!

[RGbrown]

@JoSometimes 

Thanks so much! I was pretty sure I had a fireworks design, but it took me three tries of looking through my plates to find it (apparently I have way too many 😂). So glad I finally found it!
