My Neighbor Totoro Nails

 My Neighbor Totoro is one of  Hayao Miyazaki's great animated fantasy films. It is a cute, little film made in 1988 but Disney re-released it in 2006 and my children and I think it is very good!

There are friendly wood spirits in the film that inspired these nails.

These are actually my 14-year-old daughters nails and she had just seen the movie and been inspired! Hope you enjoy! Taniya

Sinful Colors

Guess what Walgreens has on sale for only .99 cents!

Sinful Colors nail polish! Get them through tomorrow only (Sat. July 28,2012). Hurry! And have an even MORE colorful day! Taniya

NYC Big City Dazzle

New York Color's Big City Dazzle has loads of great colors all mixed together. Mostly purple but also red, pink, and blue. Maybe more. But it goes on very thin and weak so would require many coats to be used alone. This is one coat. I painted it on my little niece real quick to show you guys.

It's hard to see isn't it? So I recommend this one to be used over another color like Revlon's Grape Icy for example! This is two coats.

Grape Icy now with Big City Dazzle on top.

Plus, they smell like grape candy. Yummy! See you next time! Taniya

Pa Nail Color

I found this Pa Nail Color in a shop in Little Tokyo in Los Angeles. There was only six to choose from so I picked my favorite one to try it out. This is three coats!

So if your one who loves deep, saturated color in just one coat, this stuff is NOT for you.

Here's the other side of the bottle. Can you read that? Well, me either, so don't feel bad. The color is A134.

I ended up putting on four coats because I think it looks better.

These are not your average sized bottle either. Which they should be especially considering you need so many coats to cover! Hahaha!

In the end, I added some glitter. Sometimes I just can't help myself!

This is the polish I've shown you before from Icing in Teal Me I'm Awesome. I'll be heading back up to Little Tokyo soon and when I do I'll be seeking out the new colors from the Pa line! Have a colorful day! Taniya

Color Club Nail Lacquer

I had gone over to my girlfriends house to do nails with her and after I got back home I found some of her polish in my basket. Oh dear! So I'm going to share them with everyone. Hahaha!

Neither the light grey or the dark grey have a name! Why do some nail polish makers do that? Anyway, the darker grey has some light metallic shimmer in it that's pretty and multi-colored.

The light one has shimmer too, just not multi-colored, so I added my new NYC Glitter in Starry Silver Glitter that I just picked up at the drugstore.

Then I added some Seche Vite awesomeness because I'm a busy girl and can't sit around waiting for my nails to dry. Love this stuff!

So here they all are.

You guys have an awesome day and if you have any fun nail ideas, I'd love to see them! Taniya

4th of July Nails!

With Independence Day right around the corner (tomorrow!) I thought I would try something patriotic on my nails.

Just a little fun red, white, and blue! The blue here is China Glaze in First Mate. Any white you have will work for the white nail. I had to use two coats of Sinful Colors in Snow Me White and I have some of those cheap little nail gems from the drug store that I stuck on.

Oh! I almost forgot to mention...I put some sparkle over the blue at the last minute. I felt like it needed a little something more. It's Sinful Colors in Smoking Hot. Which brings me to what my daughter used on her nails for all of the flag waving fun tomorrow.

This super shiny blue is Sinful Colors in Midnight Blue.

And here is the aforementioned Smoking Hot. (The sparkle over my blue)

Lastly, this is Sinful Colors again in Ruby Ruby. Now go out there, my fellow Americans, and celebrate your freedom! And be sure to be thankful that we still live in the free-est nation in the world! God Bless America!!! Taniya
