Collab with Geniabeme - Pink Gradient Dot Mani!

August 12, 2013 by daydreamingbeauty 12 Comments

I have a fun collab post today that Eugenia from Geniabeme Beauty Blog and I recently did!
We both had been wanting to try something different for nail art, and we decided on a gradient dot manicure.

One of my inspirations is from this blog post Pink Polka Dot Gradient.

I started with a base coat and 2 coats of OPI Sweet Memories.

OPI Sweet Memories

My darkest pink is OPI Kiss me on my Tulips, the medium shade is OPI Got a Date To-Knight, and the lightest shade is a mix of NYC White, Sweet Memories and Got a Date To-Knight.

Once my dots dried, I used Sally Hansen diamond fast dry top coat. I’m liking the formula of this much better than Seche Vite! It’s much thinner and not so finicky!

NOTD - Gelish Radiance is My Middle Name & lime dots

June 21, 2013 by daydreamingbeauty 22 Comments

Good morning and TGIF! Today is the last day of school, so it’s really the beginning of summer for our house!! Any plans for the weekend? We are hoping to enjoy the sun and nice weather, and family time!

Here’s my notd, using Gelish “Radiance is my Middle Name” (teal) and “Sometimes a Girl’s Gotta Glow” (lime green). The formula for the summer Gelish mini colors are all really great! Perfect consistency and easy to work with.
