Hi Everyone!

My friend, entrepreneur and Mary Kay rep Sarah (link to her page here)  Posted a Youtube video of on the best way to do Ombre nails (view video here)  I liked it so much I took the challenge.  These are the polishes I used to recreate this mani.  Pure Nail Lacquer's  Virtuous and Honesty and Krafty Gurl's Platinum. (note: Platinum is not yet available on our site)

I used two coats of the light pink Virtuous as a base for all 10 nails.  Then with a cosmetic sponge, I sponged on the Honesty polish until I achieved the look that I wanted.  Once that was dry.  I sparingly used on coat of the Platinum and one coat of Seche Vite topcoat.  Below are the results.  Tell me what you think?

Swatch From Pure Nail Lacquers - Virtuous

Hi Everyone!

I keep telling myself, my nails will grow eventually, and they've grown out quite a bit since I decided to go all natural, about 1/2 way up the nailbed.  I want to focus on natural nail care and maintenance.  Have I had thoughts of going back to pretty acrylics??  Oh yea, for sure, but I made the commitment and am moving forward. :)

For the last week or so, we've been featuring polishes from the fabulous Pure Nail Lacquer line.  Today I decided to use Virtuous.  This is a creamy sheer baby pastel pink.  I can so see this being paired in a reverse french mani or used as a base for a bold/pastel design.  It's a semi sheer/opaque look in two coats which is what I used in the pictures below and I paired it up with one coat of Krafty Gurl's Pink Palooza which is one of our "confetti" type glitters in hot pink black and white. (the bold/pastel look)  What do you all think?

Fall Collection Pre-Sale!

We are so excited!  Our Fall Collection Pre-Sale starts THIS Friday 7/19 and will run till
Friday 8/2.  All orders will ship 8/9.  This collection will be available for $22.00 and will feature 4 polishes.

Rustic - This polish has a beautiful rustic quality to it.  Red matte, red holo, copper, chocolate brown and bronze glitters in a clear base.  This beauty will compliment any autumn inspired mani.

Patina - Coppery, teals, and purples in a clear base make up this one.  Great with a neutral base color or paired as I have in the pic below with mint green.

City View - Night lights, city views, silhouettes of skyscrapers in the horizon.  That's what this reminds me of.  Gorgeous mattes in black, yellow gold, teal, purple, hot pink, with touches of various colored holographic glitters in a clear base.

Golden Sands - Sand, Gold, Chocolate and Copper metallic glitters in a clear base make up this glitter bomb.  This one is so versatile for both fall or any time of the year.

You can get these or any all our other glitter polishes at www.kraftygurldesigns.com or through our Etsy shop at www.etsy.com/shop/kraftygurldesigns .
