I have another review today, again from <a href="http://www.bornprettystore.com/" target="_blank">Born Pretty Store</a>. These were done on fake, press on nails, so I apologize if they look a little off in the pics.<br />

I loved spikes and studs. Love 'em. Then again I'm perpetually stuck in some weird punk/goth phase, and have been since I was 15, so..<br />
<br />
For this mani, I used the <a href="http://www.bornprettystore.com/100pcs-25mm2mm-punk-simple-spike-rivet-stud-nail-decoration-p-10438.html" target="_blank">Silver Spike Studs</a> from BPS. You get a lot of them, and they're itty bitty, which is very nice. I attached them using nail glue, no topcoat, and damn, they look pretty badass, yeah? Now, these were just for photos, so they're pretty impractical.. some of the spikes fell off when I removed the nails. If you REALLY want these suckers to stick, I suggest nail glue+topcoat, or nail glue+gel topcoat, and try not to use a lot of the spikes, just a few for accents. Again, spikes aren't very practical as they're prone to catch on things, but they look damn cool. I wouldn't suggest using them for a mani you want to last the week.. these are for a more temporary mani, as in a day or two, for a special event. I'd personally use these for a mani for an event like a concert, or going to a club, or something fun like that. I think these would be fun to experiment with for other make-up applications as well.. they'd likely be easy to attach to skin with eyelash glue or spirit gum. All in all, these are very neat little studs!<br />
<br />
Used for this mani:<br />
BPS Silver Spike Studs, silver beads, craft store rhinestones, China Glaze Don't Honk Your Thorn, black acrylic paint<br />
<br />
Once again, BPS was kind enough to give me a discount for my followers to use!<br />

Hey everyone! Spring is starting to kick up(FINALLY), so I've got something pretty for you today. I'm sick of this dull weather, so I thought something semi-flashy was in order for this week, and mermaid nails seem to be pretty in right now.</div>

I also have my first review for you!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.bornprettystore.com/" target="_blank">Born Pretty</a> was kind enough to reach out to me and send me a few items for review, and I decided to use one of them for this mani. I went with their <a href="http://www.bornprettystore.com/20pcs-3mm5mm-shiny-mini-metal-shell-design-stud-nail-decoration-p-10181.html" target="_blank">Gold Metal Shell Studs</a>, and I gotta say, they're pretty nice. They are smaller than I expected, but I should've paid better attention to the dimensions, whoops. They're super easy to use! Just apply a drop of topcoat or nail glue, press them down gently, and let it dry. You can seal them in with additional topcoat for more staying power if you'd like. If you're careful, I've found that you can re-use them. I just carefully pop them off and clean them with a little bit of nail polish remover if I need to, and I can usually get a few more uses out of them before the finish starts to wear. Ocean/Mermaid inspired manis seem to be pretty in right now, and I think the shells add the right amount of flair without being too gaudy.<br />
<br />
Products used: Loose glitter, China Glaze Don't Honk Your Thorn, acrylic paint, rhinestones/pearls, BPS shell studs<br />
<br />
BPS was also kind enough to give me a 10% off code for my readers to use, if you'd like! Check it out.<br />

Okay, so I may or may not have been playing a lot of Pokemon Black lately.. mainly because I don't have a 3DS, so I can't play X/Y like I really want to. But hey, Pokemon! I know I'm not the only person that wishes they were real. Anyway, I'm not veryyyy happy with these, but they're okay. Pikachu turned out alright. Love me some original starters and electric mice..<br />
<br />
Polishes used: China Glaze, Peachy Keen/Tree Hugger/Blue Sparrow/White on White/Liquid Leather; acrylic paint<br />
<br />
I have some pretty cool nails coming up soon, hopefully.. plus some awesome product reviews!

This was pretty much my first complicated mani since my little rut I went through.. I felt a little ambitious, so I thought hey, why not Sailor Moon? Sailor Moon was the first anime I ever watched, and it'll always have a special place in my heart. The manga itself is absolutely beautiful art-wise, as well, and I still enjoy picking it up for a quick read now and then.<br />
<br />
My hands are very unsteady after not doing fine details for a few months, so I really need to start practicing again, clearly.. sigh. Ah well, I've got ideas, just gotta get off my butt and do 'em!<br />
<br />
Polishes: <b>OPI</b> Funny Bunny, <b>OPI</b> Pirouette My Whistle, <b>Essie</b> Coat Azure, <b>Sinful Colors</b> Cinderella, <b>China Glaze</b> Blue Sparrow, acrylic paints<!--3--><br />

Hey! Once again, I'm alive, and sorry for not posting.. life kind of.. got in the way. You know how it goes, I'm sure. I went through a pretty bad nail art rut, sadly. But I'm back! Well, trying to come back, at least.<br />
<br />
This was just a little half moon/glittery mani I did a while back. These colors actually go quite well together, I wasn't sure at first, but they grew on me. The glitter never photographs well, but it's very sparkly and eye-catching irl.<br />

I know it's Halloween, but for some reason.. I didn't feel like doing Halloween nails. Huh. For some reason, I felt like something really girly/delicate. I rarely do sheer, but I like how this looks a lot with my longer nails. I threw the blue swirls on for a little pop of color. Not bad, all in all.<br />

Hey everyone! So, like many people, I am super stoked for Halloween. I decided to practice and play around with makeup, so I can decide on a costume, and I have to say I'm pretty happy with how this one turned out! I'm sorry for the quality of the pictures, but it's all I took that day. I've seen many people doing this look this year, and I think it's rad. The only thing I want to improve upon are the teeth.<br />
<br />
I used Mehron Celebre Foundation in Eurasian ivory, black liquid liner, and black eyeshadow for this.<br />
<br />

So, I tried a different little spin on the candy corn mani.. why not drips? Then I remember I absolutely hate doing drips because I'm terrible at them.. sigh. The drips also glow in the dark, but I sadly couldn't snap a picture of that. I suppose they aren't bad, though! My friends and family seemed to enjoy them quite a bit.<br />

For some reason, I'm been in such a skeleton mood. I actually did these when I was quite sick, but I was so bored out of my mind, I had to do something. My mother picked up the Nails Inc leather effect polish randomly, and I LOVE it. Seriously, I'm not a fan of the textured polish trend, but I love this polish. It's just textured enough to make it feel leathery, and very.. I don't know.. badass? I felt like a badass wearing it. It wore incredibly well on me considering you can't use a topcoat on it, too. Highly recommend!<br />

This was my first attempt at trying a stained glass kind of design.. it looked very pretty irl! This was all done with loose glitter mixed with clear polish, over a nude polish base, then outlined in black. Slightly time-consuming, but I think I may try it again and try to get more concise/thinner lines. It's hard to get precise lines over the gritty glitter, but I think doing a coat of topcoat first may help with that..<br />

This manicure was inspired by the fantastic artist Melita Curphy, also known as Missmonster! I received that adorable plushie from her(his name is Momo!), and I just had to do some cute nails to match him. Everyone got a kick out of these, and they were super fun to do. I was sad when I had to take them off. The base was China Glaze For Audrey, and all the rest was done in acrylic paint.<br />
<br />

Pretty self explanatory.. just a simple gradient in some summery colors, with a black border. These really pop IRL, I was surprised by how much I liked them.<br />

I'll be blunt.. I've been feeling like a royal bitch this past week(or two). Bad times all around for Lex. I haven't been doing nails much as a result, but I banged these out last night while I was messing around with some CND Shellac. If you're gonna be a bitch, might as well feel like and be the queen bitch..<br />

As a bonus, here's some nails from.. two weeks ago? Before I got all angry and grumpy. Just another simply bow design.

Hello everyone! Hope you're all doing well. How 'bout this weird summer weather, huh? I don't know about y'all, but it's been pretty weird here in Chicago-land.. so much rain!<br />
<br />
Anyway, nails for this weekend! I'm going out with my friends tomorrow, and there's a pinup theme, so I wanted some cute, girly nails. As you can see, I really need to practice sculpting things with acrylic.. lol.attackedastoriahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08120115719481276516noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-960423107891542776.post-91802752243151240062013-05-27T16:23:00.000-07:002013-05-27T16:23:04.624-07:00The ol' classic..

I've done this design so often I could probably do it in my sleep by now.. but hey, it never gets old. This was my first time trying it with acrylic paints instead of polish. And I only did two accents instead of a full set because I was damn tired.. I'm getting so lazy in my 'old' age, lol.attackedastoriahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08120115719481276516noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-960423107891542776.post-66785076553675095302013-05-18T22:27:00.001-07:002014-02-15T14:41:49.552-08:00When in doubt.. blue and white china print!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Yes, another blu and white china print.. as much as I do it, it never really gets old. It's such a clean combination of colors that looks good on pretty much anyone, and it's very striking.<br />
<br />
I used<b> Sally Hansen</b> White On, and acrylic paints for this.<br />
<br />
In other news.. I went to a concert on thursday, and boy, I feel like I got my ass kicked, haha. I guess I'm a little to old to be duking it out in the pit with teenagers, now. I hurt in places I didn't even know existed.. oof. Oh well, I had fun!<br />
<br />
Now that summer is rolling around, hopefully I'll be updating more!attackedastoriahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08120115719481276516noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-960423107891542776.post-67748674956790937602013-05-03T14:36:00.000-07:002013-05-03T14:36:36.729-07:00Playing with neon<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hello! I'd say I hope everyone has been enjoying the spring weather, but it's been a liiiiittle out of control lately.. I've got friends still getting snow.. what gives?<br />
<br />
Anyway, I was just messing around with some neon color here. Forgive the pics, but we haven't had good sunlight in like two days so I had to make due. This is the longest my natural nails have been in a while.. I've grown pretty find of this shape, I don't know if I could go back to square nails again!attackedastoriahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08120115719481276516noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-960423107891542776.post-21775209054961468122013-04-27T12:20:00.000-07:002013-04-27T12:20:48.172-07:00Chains and stripes<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Well, this is a fairly self-explanatory mani.. I was pretty bored and not feeling extremely creative, but I wanted something different than what I usually do. Pretty much threw whatever I grabbed from my kit onto my nails.. chains, studs, glitter, gold foil.. aaaaand it came out like this, lol. I do like the thumb and ring finger, but the rest are pretty meh. I was too tired to redo it, however. I'd probably just go for solid black next time since I cannot do stripes no matter what..attackedastoriahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08120115719481276516noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-960423107891542776.post-65789037951164344532013-04-21T17:55:00.000-07:002013-04-21T17:55:47.626-07:00Koi fish nails<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hello everyone! Anyone else sick of all this gross wintery weather in the middle of frickin' April? I know I am..<br />
<br />
Anywho.. these came about because I wanted to experiment with some loose hex glitter in a different way. I thought it might make an interesting way to accent scales and make them pop, so I went with a koi fish kind of color pattern. I'm not totally happy, but they're interesting!attackedastoriahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08120115719481276516noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-960423107891542776.post-80765690037364298102013-04-03T16:56:00.000-07:002013-04-03T16:56:02.930-07:00Sunflower nails<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Pretty self-explanatory.. again, this is a design I did before a while ago, and decided to revisit. I like it much better this time around. I really, really want summer to get here.. chase this chill out of my bones. Ugh.<br />
<br />
Again, sorry I don't post regularly.. I'm still sick(ugh), and last week my boyfriend of 2 years dumped me. I haven't been in the best mood, understandably. I'm really trying to stay positive, but it's super hard right now.. sigh.

I've seen these done before, but I've been watching Doctor Who with my mum lately, so I had to give them a go.. I think she likes them more than I do, haha. Painting an itty bitty police box is no easy task, lemme tell ya.. it's also been ages since I've done nebula nails, so that was challenging.<br />
<br />
I haven't really been doing nails lately.. I've been sick for the past four weeks with something really bad. Doctor's have no idea what it is, either. Kinda scary. But I felt alright enough today, so I did these, because doing my nails helps me feel normal. Just want you guys to know, in case I'm absent for a long period, again.attackedastoriahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08120115719481276516noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-960423107891542776.post-41579971566235296032013-02-19T17:20:00.000-08:002013-02-19T17:20:54.002-08:00Simple skull accents, plus my v-day mani.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Helloooo everyone! As you can see, I have iiiitty bitty stumps right now.. I put acrylics on myself for v-day, and after I removed them I trimmed my nails down as short as I could, because I wanted some new growth, and because they were a little thin. It's easier for me to work with short nails, anyways. They looked a little sad, so I slapped on some Revlon "Facets of Fuchsia" and some little skull accents for fun.<br />

So.. most of you probably aren't aware, but I am HUGE Fall Out Boy fan. Huge. Ever since 2003. I love them to death, and just today, they came off a 3 year hiatus to announce a new album/tour. I AM SO HAPPY. I cried a little, I'll admit it. People don't understand how much this band means to me.<br />
<br />
These are based on the new video for the single remix, where all their old merch and albums are being burned.. I loved it. Great symbolism. I'm really happy with the way these turned out.. and I hope to God I can get tickets for their tour.attackedastoriahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08120115719481276516noreply@blogger.com3
