Pretty & Polished Dusty Creme Water Marble

Indie Polish Monday, November 30, 2015
Press sample Remember those gorgeous Pretty & Polished Dusty Cremes from last week? Not only do they stamp, they also water marble. I used all five of them to create this mani: I started with a base of Raisin A Toast since it was the lightest color in the bunch. From there I water marbled each nail individually. If you need help with...

Clairestelle8 November 2015 Challenge- Feathers

Indie Polish Saturday, November 28, 2015
I had this grand idea that I was going to make some nail art decals for the final @clairestelle8challenge. They were going to be easy, and perfect according to what I saw in my head. For some reason I hopped aboard the struggle bus and ended up with a lumpy, disorderly mess. Instead of redoing them, I accepted the fact that these are...

Pretty & Polished Dusty Cremes and the Winter Collection

Indie Polish Friday, November 27, 2015
Press sample I have some stunning colors from Pretty & Polished to share with you today. To sum things up a bit, I want to replace all of my cremes with dusty cremes.

Clairestelle8 November 2015 Challenge- Owls

Indie Polish Tuesday, November 24, 2015
We are so close to the end of the @clairestelle8challenge that it's unbelievable. I put my thinking cap on my hood up, and started digging through my helmers for the perfect combo. The only thing I was certain of was that I wanted a dark base to stamp over. After many color exchanges, this is what I settled on: Products used Stardust Polish- The...

Baroness X Glisk, Royal Oil & Swatcher's Balm

Indie Polish Monday, November 23, 2015

Glisk Formula: Nice consistency Finish: Blue, teal, purple multichrome with holographic shards Coverage: 2 coats Notes:...
