Saw OPI's Kiss me on my two lips in my helmer and decided I was in the mood for a hot pink! I know these shades are usually reserved for spring and summer, but I think there is no reason why they can't be pulled out in the winter to brighten things up!

Snowman Nails
Happy Friday! Anyone have snow where they live? If so, you might enjoy these cute snowman nails!
This look started with a couple of coats of OPI's Road House Blues. Then I stamped the cute little snowmen from a stamp I got from Born Pretty Store. The snowman on his own was cute, but didn't feel like enough, so I pulled out my dotting tool and dotted in some snow falling and some snow on the ground. Then the look seemed a little too white, so I dotted in some Zoya Ivanka for the scarf to add a little color.

Pink Starry Glitter
Simple little Pink Wednesday post for you today! I started with OPI Italian Love Affair as my base:
And then added a coat of NYX starry glitter over top:
I really like this subtle effect. I just wish someone would invent either 1) a glitter polish remover or 2) easy remove glitter polish! Why is it so hard to take off! Almost makes you not want to wear it, but its not gonna stop me! Any tips for glitter removal, or great removers or glitter polishes I should try? Let me know! Hope you are having a lovely pink Wednesday!

NOTD: OPI Stranger Tides
When I saw OPI's announcement of their Stranger Tides collection, this was the one color I just HAD to have. As you saw on Monday's post, I finally got my hands on this beauty last week! Here is a swatch of the beauty:
Stranger Tides is soooo gorgeous! I just love it's creamy murky greenness! I decided to pull out my dotting tool and give it some cute little dots using Zoya Shawn and Pipppa.
I'm in love with this simple little manicure. What do you think? If you don't have Stranger Tides yet, GET IT NOW!

OPI Peru-B-Ruby Two Ways
For Pink Wednesday I picked OPI's Peru-B-Ruby and Zoya's Alegra. When looking at my collection I noticed that Alegra is the same tone as Peru-B-Ruby, but a sparkly version, so I wanted to do something with the two of them, and when experimenting, I ended up with a different manicure on each hand. On my left hand I went with a funky french:
The tips are OPI Peru-B-Ruby and then I added the designs with a striper brush and my dotting tool. I really love designs like this, but I'm definitely not a pro at this point. Here is the other manicure I did with the two colors. I was hoping Alegra would be a little sheerer so I could do the tips in Peru-B-Ruby and then layer Alegra over it. Then it just kind of blended...
Oh well, you win some, you lose some. Hope everyone is having a lovely pink wednesday!
