Finger Paints Twisted + Matte

Hey there!

Today's post is a Finger Paints flakie that I can't get over how amazing it is... and I mattifyed it as an experiment and if its possible, I love it MORE!





Twisted by Finger Paints. 2 coats over 1 coat WNW Black Creme. First 2 pictures are normal and bottom 2 are matte (I used 1 coat of Hard Candy Mattely in Love). I didn't think I could possibly love Twisted any more until I made it matte. Holy cow it looks awesome! I can't stop staring at my nails. I'm in love.

Thanks for reading, until next time!

Current Mani: Summer in January!

So, It is currently 80 degrees where I live and its been unseasonably hot for the last few days. It really feels like summer in So-Cal so I decided to do summer nails!


China Glaze Turned up Turquoise with Art You Wondering By Finger Paints on the accent nail. I love Turned up Turquoise. Its a neon teal, what's not to love?? This is a combination I would usually reserve for mid-July, but since it feels more like summer than the dead of winter, I feel like this is appropriate! As much as I like this mani, I really wish it was cold. I like cold weather better than hot. Its supposed to start cooling down this weekend and I'm really excited for that.

Finger Paints Flakie Bomb!!

Good morning! I hope everyone had a great Christmas and Santa brought you all what you wanted, and if not... I hope you get out to shop today! :) As for me, I got money, a gift card, a nail polish, and a Snuggie :) It was a good, lazy Christmas! :)

So let me say right off the bat I stole this idea from The Polishaholic. I saw this on her blog and I had to try it and since it looks so incredible, I had to share, so thanks Jen for the idea! I'm in love with my nails.

Flakie Bomb!!! This is a combination of all 5 flakies that make up the Finger Paints Special Effects Flakies Collection. Colors are Asylum, Flecked, Motley, Twisted, and Flashy. I completely love this mani!!! I don't really know what else to say about it other than I love it so much!!! So since this mani has kind of left me at a loss for words, I'll just let he pictures speak for themselves!

Thanks for reading, until next time!

12 Days of Christmas: Day 11 - Holiday Flakies!

Today's Christmas post includes flakies! :). Please excuse the messy cuticles, I did my nails and shortly after took a shower so I didn't want to go through cleaning my cuticles since it would wash off in the shower anyways.




China Glaze Velvet Bow (2 coats) with Finger Paints Flecked on top. As soon as I got Flecked, I knew I had to try to layer it over red for Christmas :) I love the FP Flakies! They're fantastic!!!! 

Don't forget to check out my new YouTube Channel for a collection/storage overview video!

Thanks for reading, until next time!

Finger Paints Special Effects Collection Swatches!

I was at Sally's earlier to pick up a practice finger to start practicing nail art and I saw an employee putting out new nail polish and of course I had to go see. One of the things she was putting out was the Finger Paints Special Effects flakies! I had to buy them all!

Shade
These are 2 coats each over Wet n' Wild Black Creme. FLAKIES! Holy cow, I love these! My favorite is definitely Twisted and Flecked. Flecked is GREEN! and Twisted is multi color. The formula was pretty okay... 2 coats are needed to get the amount of flakies in the picture... Motley seemed a little more scarce to me, but I did do these really fast because the sun is setting (so please ignore the messy cuticles!) so I didn't let the first coat of Motley dry completely.

What do you guys think? Will you be picking these up? Let me know in the comments! :)

Thanks for reading, until next time!
