July Favorites!

Hey y'all! Today on the blog I am going to share all of my favorite nail things from the month of July! Ready? Me too! Lets get started. 

I'll start off with my four favorite manis from the month of July - in order my top favorite is definitely my Harry Potter inspired mani. I did a collab with some nail friends for Harry Potter's birthday. I have a separate post coming about the collab we did so make sure to check back! The other 3 are tied for second place. Haha, yeah, definitely can't chose my second third or fourth faves out of them. I feel like July was a good month for me, I pumped out a lot of manis and felt like my work was definitely getting cleaner and better overall!

My next favorite thing was favorite technique. July was the month of stamping for me! UberChic Beauty stamping plates and my Creative Shop Stamper have proven themselves incredibly addicting for this aggressive polisher. I couldn't stop this month - many of my manis were stamped and the majority of stamping I did came from images on the UberChic Beauty plates.

The next favorite sort of ties into the last and that's my favorite polish of the month. It relates because its a stamping polish! This month's go to polish that made it into multiple manis was M Polish Berry Best Friends. BBF is a group custom berry pink holo stamping polish that was available only to the members of the M Polish Lovers group on Facebook.  Not a member? No worries - you can find it HERE and request to join. My understanding is that there may be more customs in the future! 

Final favorite this month is my favorite cuticle oil. To be fair, this brand has been my favorite since I started using it BUT the scent is a new one to me in the last couple of months. The brand is Morning Star Nails and the scent is Calm. I really love the earthiness of this scent and love that the scent lingers just a bit on my skin even long after the oil has soaked in. If you haven't tried Morning Star Nails, I highly recommend it! 

That's it for July's favorites! One more month of super intense late summer here and then we can *hopefully* start looking forward to fall! What were your favorite nail items for the month of July? 

Thanks for reading!

Monthly Mani Favorites - February

Hey y'all! 

Today on the blog I have my favorite manis from the month of February. 

I love how differently each turned out. The top left was a stamped mani, the top right was a freehanded design, the bottom left was a watermarble, and the bottom left was a vinyl mani. I really spanned the spectrum of mani techniques this month! :D 

This month was also the month of epically dry hands, so I am not super happy with any of my photos this month. I feel like the dryness takes away from the finished product. Spring is right around the corner though! I've been slathering on cuticle oil and drinking water like its my job so here's hoping March has some better skin! 

Here's a single picture of each mani:

This one was for Valentine's Day of course. 

This little freehanded fox was inspired by OneNailToRuleThemAll. I was very pleased with my outcome on this one. 

This one was a watermarble using my new MPolish which is actually a stamping polish but it marbles well too! 

Probably my absolute favorite of the bunch, this mani was done with Glammymani nail vinyls. 

Which one is your favorite? Did you have a favorite of your manis this month?
