Hello! Happy Friday! I hope you're all ready to have a great weekend. Today I'm sharing this ikat inspired nail art design with you. I also threw in some rhinestones because I haven't used any in a while. I feel like these ikat designs are a little misunderstood because a lot of people don't even know what it REALLY is. Ikat (ikkat) is a dyeing technique used to pattern textiles. The yarns are wrapped tightly in little bundles and then are dyed prior to being made into the textile. So really... ikat doesn't have any kind of specific pattern. When people say "ikat" they're sort of referring to the way the brushstrokes look in the art. Most people who do ikat nail art designs will make them using small vertical strokes which give it a similar look to ikat. I could go on, but I'm not an expert and Google would be able to help you more than I can. I just wanted to give you some sort of idea as to what it is.</div>

Hey everybody! Guess who got a new camera. ME! Guess who doesn't know how to work all the fancy new settings. ME! Seriously though, it's a struggle. I had a DSLR before, but my new one is a lot more fancy than the one I had. It's still the same, but completely different. I've also realized that adjusting photos in Lightroom is A LOT easier than adjusting the color in Photoshop. That's another thing I'm trying to get used to. Hang in there while I get all my settings to the way I like them.</div>

ANYWAY... Nail art! I did some doughnuts! Donuts? Doughnuts? They're both the same to me. Apparently "doughnuts" is the proper term, but "donuts" is also correct. They both date back pretty far, so if you're crunched for time, you can be like me and always use "donut".</div>

Hey everybody! I hope you're having a great weekend! I'll make this post super short since it's a Holiday weekend. Today I have some flamingo nail art photos to share with you. Along with the flamingos I also created a polka dot and floral nail art design. Everything is hand painted, like usual, with a small nail art brush and a dotting tool. The tutorial for this design will be embedded below.</div>

Hello everyone! I hope you're all having a great day! My Tuesday is going pretty great so far. I did a lot of adulting today. Which means I was on the phone all day dealing with tax and insurance things. Sounds fun right? Now that I'm done with all of that I can share this fun little chevron nail art design with you! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I always love chevron designs but I always have a hard time hand painting them. I feel like they get super wonky or all the lines are completely different sizes or going in different directions. However, this time I feel like I did a pretty good job! The lines are thin and for the most part look the same! YAY! SUCCESS! "But Sam, why don't you just use nail vinyls? They're so easy!" They are, but I really don't like the idea of using nail vinyls for nail art. I totally understand why people use them and they're awesome, but I like the challenge of hand painting things. Plus, not everyone has the money to buy them. (Ahem, me. I'm a broke 23 year old fumbling around learning how to be an adult.) I don't like paying for things I'm going to use once and then immediately throw out. I'm not saying I would never use them, but meh... Not my thing. If you want to know all the products used make sure to check out the list below. And as usual the tutorial for this design is below all the photos. :) I hope you guys have an awesome week and I'll catch you later.</div>

Hey everybody! I hope you're having a great week so far! Today's nail art is a little mix and match-y with some floral print, polka dots, and stripes. I don't have too much to say for this design. I just went with what I was feeling and this is what I came up with. Everything is freehanded except for the stripes. I used striping tape for those nails because it's a million times easier. I can't draw a straight line to save my life.</div>

Hello! Wow! It's been a while. I haven't uploaded or blogged in about a month. I'm here to share some koi fish nail art with you! There's just something about koi fish that is super relaxing to me so I wanted to put some on my nails. I was going to use a creme polish, but I decided to go with glitter instead. I'm super happy I did! I think it gave it a little extra something that it could have been missing, but is now not missing.</div>

It's officially December! Which means holiday nail art is fair game. Today I'm sharing my first holiday design of 2015 with you! It's a really cute reindeer with a simple style fair isle design. I am so proud of my little reindeer! I think he's absolutely adorable. I would definitely put him on all of my nails instead of just one. I can't get enough of him. My boyfriend named him Ralph. hahaha! So if you want a pet... here you go! Nail art pets.</div>

I decided that I'm going to start doing a quick list of the products used for nail art designs because I feel like it's easier. Not only for me, but also people who aren't too fond of reading blog posts. For the most part, people don't stay on my blog posts too long. That's according to my analytics anyway. I assume most people come for the photos, which is 110% alright with me.</div>

For the white watercolor floral base I used <b>Motives Wedding Dress</b>. For the purple nails I used <b>China Glaze All Aboard</b>. The flowers were done with <b>Apple Barrel</b> acrylic paint by <b>Plaid</b>. The glitters on the purple nails are from <b>Born Pretty Store</b>. I also used two different top coats for this design. I went with <b>Butter London's Matte Finish</b> top coat for the floral and then <b>Lauren B Beauty's Gel-Like</b> top coat for the others. </div>

I'm hoping these colorful flowers will keep the winter blues away! I'm definitely a summer girl even though my birthday is in December. Anything under 70 degrees is too cold for my body. What do you guys prefer? Hot or cold weather? Or are you somewhere in between? </div>

Hey everybody! Happy Saturday! I hope you're having a great weekend so far. I have white marble nail art to share with you today. White marble has been super popular for the past couple months. I have to admit, I really love it too. I personally think white marble never goes out of style. It's always a classic. With that said, it's way harder to hand paint a marble pattern on my nails than I thought. Marble is never the same so it's hard to get it wrong, but it does have a certain pattern to it that makes it a little bit difficult to hand paint.</div>

The white base color I used for this design is <b>Wedding Dress</b> by <b>Motives</b>. For the rest of the design I used black and white acrylic paint from <b>Plaid</b>. The <b>Apple Barrel</b> kind. It's super easy to mix and thin out which is perfect for this design. I used a few different nail art brushes for this. Some of them were from Winstonia and some were generic ones that I cut myself. The gel like top coat I used is from <b>Lauren B. Beauty</b>.</div>

I think I might give this design another try later on. This was my first time trying to imitate white marble. I think it looks okay, but I feel like I could make it look better now that I know what I'm doing.</div>

Hey guys! I'm going to make this post really quick because it's kind of Halloween related and most people are over it already because it's now November, but I wanted to share them with you anyway! This was the nail art I had on my nails for Halloween. I wanted to get this out before Halloween, but since I did it the night before, it was too much of a rush for me to finish the video.</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Hey everybody! Today is my last Halloween themed nail art design for the year! Although, you may see skulls in nail art designs all year long from me because I love them so much. For this design I covered my nails in skulls and bones over a sparkly base. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I started by painting my nails a solid black using <b>Wet 'n' Wild Black Creme</b>. Then I added <b>Zoya Storm</b> for some beautiful holographic sparkle. I love this polish! It's so pretty. The skulls and bones were done with <b>Apple Barrel acrylic paint</b>. I used a dotting tool as well as a small nail art brush to apply them. The top coat I used is <b>Rimmel London Lasting Finish Pro</b>. I don't hear about this top coat very often and I love it! It's from the drugstore and I always find it on sale. It's one of my favorites.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Here's a fun fact. Right after I finished doing this design on my nails I had an accident with my right hand that landed me in the emergency room. I won't go into detail about what happened to spare you the gore, but the 2 weeks after recording this design was rough. Good thing I made my nails look pretty! It was a good conversation to have while doctors and nurses were power washing my wounds with freezing cold water. Now I have 2 gnarly scars on my right hand.</span></div>

Happy Sunday everyone! I hope you've all had a great weekend. Today I am sharing this bruised nail art design with you. Lately I've been learning about SFX and watching loads of videos about it on YouTube. I took the idea of the bruising technique that is very popular in SFX and made it into nail art. I think this looks pretty cool!</div>

The base color I used for this design is <b>Samoan Sand</b> by <b>OPI</b>. It's seriously the perfect nude for my skin. I'm going to be so sad when I run out because it's now discontinued. I also used <b>Butter London</b>'s <b>Matte Finish</b> top coat. All of the bruising colors were mixed using <b>Apple Barrel</b> acrylic paint. I used dark green, purple, blue, red, bright green, yellow, and black. I applied it with a sponge that I ripped up so it had an awesome textured effect. You can see how I did that in my video tutorial below! Once I finished applying all of the colors I added another layer of the matte top coat because, obviously, bruises aren't shiny. </div>

Hello everyone! I'm back again with more Halloween themed nail art! This time I'm throwing some candy at you. I'm slightly late on this one, because I've had the tutorial up for a while already. I didn't have time to share it anywhere except <a href="http://youtube.com/packapunchpolish" target="_blank">YouTube</a> and <a href="http://instagram.com/packapunchnails" target="_blank">Instagram</a>. Better late than never though!</div>

The base for this nail art is <b>OPI Live and Let Die</b>. It's a super, super dark green with some flecked shimmer in it. The candy was all done with various colors of <b>acrylic paint</b> and a small nail art brush. The top coat I used is from <b>Lauren B. Beauty</b>. </div>

Happy Thursday everybody! I'm currently shivering like a popsicle because it's freezing in my house. I hope everyone is a little warmer than I am! Today I'm sharing some vampire bite nail art with you! I think this is a nice combination of cute and mild gore for the people who want best of both worlds, but don't want to see the gross, disgusting, and scary nail art that people are creating.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I used <b>China Glaze Dandy Lyin' Around</b> over <b>Wet 'n' Wild French White Creme</b> as the base. The lips and fangs were done using <b>Apple Barrel</b> <b>acrylic paint</b>. If you want to take a short cut for making this design, you can use a stamping plate to stamp on the lips! I know I've seen lip prints on multiple popular plates out there!</div>

Hey everybody! I'm sharing more Halloween nail art with you tonight! This time it's not so scary. I went ahead with a classic polka dot design, but did it in a Halloween color scheme. This is another design that is super easy for beginners to try.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I started off with a black base for this design. I used <b>Zoya</b>'s <b>Willa</b>. The polka dots were all done with <b>Apple Barrel</b> <b>acrylic paint</b> and a dotting tool! I also used Zoya's Armor top coat. It's not my favorite, and it's definitely not horrible, but it does it's job as a decent top coat.</div>

Hello again! Remember that <a href="http://www.packapunchpolish.com/2015/10/blood-splatter-nail-art-with-video.html" target="_blank">blood splatter nail art</a> that I recently posted? I recycled it into this! I added some caution tape to it and it looks even more awesome now! I added the caution tape using yellow and black acrylic paint and a small nail art brush. This is a really easy and quick way to get some extra wear out of a mani that you've already done. You can wear the blood splatter for the first half of the week and then add the tape for the second half! </div>

Hello everyone! I'm back again with some classic Halloween nail art! The blood splatter manicure. Done by everyone and their mother and it still never gets old. I would rock this on a daily basis if I didn't change my polish constantly! Since I'm doing my little Halloween series on my <a href="http://youtube.com/packapunchpolish" target="_blank">YouTube channel</a> I decided I needed to do some basic and classic designs for my beginner viewers. Even though everyone has seen a tutorial for these, sometimes it takes that millionth video for it to click and for you to finally get it right.</div>

My white base is <b>Wedding Dress</b> by <b>Motives Cosmetics</b>. It is one of my favorite white polishes in case you're wondering! For the blood splatter I used <b>City Siren</b> by <b>China Glaze</b> and splattered it against my nails using a drinking straw. Incredibly messy? Yes. Incredibly worth it? Also yes. I didn't use a top coat for this because I like the slight texture that the splatter gives to the design.</div>

Hey everyone! Here are my swatches for the China Glaze Ghouls Night Out Collection. This is for Halloween of 2015. I purchased these a while ago, but I didn't get around to swatching them right away. So, I'm doing now it! This is a 6 piece collection and it consists of 3 creams and 3 glitter toppers.</div>

I really enjoy this collection! I wish the polishes would apply in 2 coats instead of 3, but the colors are so pretty that I don't mind. I love the whole collection, but if I had to pick favorites I'd have to go with <b>Drink Up Witches</b> and <b>Ghostess With The Mostess</b>. </div>

Hey everybody! It's been a while since I've shared some nail art with you. I bet you didn't except to see this kind of nail art either. I started my Halloween series on my YouTube channel! Every video I upload will be related to Halloween in some way. They will either be Halloween colored or design themed.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
For my first video I did zombie bites! An SFX style nail art. I really love the way it turned out. It's not a practical, every day nail art design. It's definitely only meant for a night out to a party or to compliment a zombie costume because it has a ton of nail polish layers and it does take a while to dry. Someone in the comments section of my tutorial video mentioned that you could do this on a set of fake nails and let them dry ahead of time. That way you can just glue them on when you're ready to go. I thought that was brilliant! It's certainly something to keep in mind if you want to give these a try.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I started out using a base coat and a red polish. I used <b>China Glaze's Hey Sailor</b>. I built up the red polish and then placed a clear top coat over it. Then I added a nude polish. I used <b>OPI's Samoan Sand</b>. Once I built up my nude polish to be opaque I made it matte with <b>Butter London's Matte Finish </b>top coat. After that I used a dotting tool and started to rip holes into the polish since they polish underneath is still very wet. I let them dry and then added details with acrylic paint. I used a thinned out blue for the veins with a striping polish and then sponged on thinned out red using a makeup sponge. Then I filled up some of the holes with my red polish and made some of them look like they were dripping blood.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>Free Bear Hugs</b>: A deep black/red creme. This one has a great formula. It has a jelly texture and finish to it so it dries really shiny without a top coat. This is two coats with a top coat.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>Wood You Wanna?</b>: A brownish burgundy metallic. This one is almost like a hybrid between a metallic and a foil. It's so shiny and pretty. This one is pretty opaque. This is two coats with a top coat.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>My Lodge Or Yours?</b>: Rosy mauve creme. This one was so much more opaque than I thought it was going to be. Almost a one coater, but not quite. Super easy to apply. This is two coats with a top coat.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>Cabin Fever</b>: A pinkish red to orangey copper duochrome. This one is literally perfect for Fall! This reminds me so much of leaves changing color. This applies pretty well. It has some brush strokes, but they seem to disappear a little bit once it dries. This is two coats with top coat.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>S'More Fun</b>: A bright yellow green cream. Why is this one called S'More Fun? This is not s'more colored AT ALL! Anyway, it's still a nice color, but this one was the worst polish in the collection in terms of application. It was really streaky and a little runny, but it wasn't too horrible to apply as long as you wipe a lot of it off your brush. This is three coats with top coat.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>Gone Glamping</b>: A gold and green duochrome. This one is a little more sheer than the other duochromes in this collection. It applies very even and is pretty easy to smooth out, but it does have some brush strokes. This is three coats with a top coat.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>Take A Hike</b>: A dark green creme. This one has an amazing formula! It's super easy to apply and it's a one coater. I never wear less than two though, so I added the extra just because. This is two coats with a top coat.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>Pondering</b>: A purple, blue, and green shifting duochrome. I really love this one! It always applies really well. Just like the other duochromes in this collection, this one had some brush strokes before it dried, but it evened out. This is two coats with a top coat.</div>
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>Let's Dew It</b>: A blue and silver glitter in a clear base. This one is SO pretty! It's jam packed with glitter and if you're wearing it as a topper, you only need one coat. This is one coat over Wet 'n' Wild's Black Creme.</div>
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>Sleeping Under The Stars</b>: A dark blue creme with pink shimmer. This one was also a one coater. It was very opaque, but I still went ahead and applied two coats. I'm not a huge fan of the shimmer in this one. It's barely noticeable to me. It's really only visible if there's direct light shining onto it. I've seen other people's swatches and their shimmer seems so much more intense than mine, so I have no idea. This is two coats with a top coat and taken with a flash.</div>

Hello everyone! Welcome/welcome back! This is a quick post because I shared this nail art a few days ago on my YouTube channel, but got sick and didn't have a chance to share the blog post. So I'm going to let the video do most of the talking for this one.</div>

I created this simple and dainty, but cute splatter design. It has a half moon design that I think resembles silver bunting. Everything with this design was created with Apple Barrel acrylic paint except for the base. The base is China Glaze's Friends Forever, Right? The top coat I used is from Lauren B Beauty.</div>

Hey everyone! Today I have nail art and a beautiful watch to share with you! I was recently contacted by Dan of <a href="http://www.woodwatches.com/#packapunchpolish" target="_blank">Jord Wood Watches</a> and he wanted to me create some nail art to match one of their amazing wood watches for you guys! They sent me a <b>Cora Series</b> Women's Watch in <a href="http://www.woodwatches.com/series/cora#45/#packapunchpolish" target="_blank">Purple Heart & Pearl</a> and it's absolutely stunning! I love it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Let's get into the nail art first, because I know that's what most of you are interested in.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
For this design I created a really pretty floral print and then blinged out the rest of my nails with some rhinestones and pearls on top of a very subtle wood grain pattern, which is barely visible in photos, unfortuntely. I think the colors I chose for the floral print really compliment the Purple Heart wood of <a href="http://www.woodwatches.com/series/cora#45/#packapunchpolish" target="_blank">the watch</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMGaT21TH1JoU_B9kxg708hsAaWT_2sD_OUi78_Xp_ZZN3MQ-CZnjkKk0KtyQz0L6YIhuioFaGT21k3sA27HOF22mx3cQ6XRjay3EEqHvSGgOytxJDGopCXBOO_0sp1A-Q95o-6bVsQlcC/s1600/05.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMGaT21TH1JoU_B9kxg708hsAaWT_2sD_OUi78_Xp_ZZN3MQ-CZnjkKk0KtyQz0L6YIhuioFaGT21k3sA27HOF22mx3cQ6XRjay3EEqHvSGgOytxJDGopCXBOO_0sp1A-Q95o-6bVsQlcC/s1600/05.jpg" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The base of the floral print nails is a white polish and a pearl polish. The white is <b>Wet n Wild French White Creme</b> and the pearl is <b>Sinful Colors Tokyo Pearl</b>. I applied the pearl polish diagonally so it would create a unique texture underneath the flowers. Sometimes with pearl polishes the brush strokes can be distracting and a little unsightly if they are done vertically.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The flowers were hand painted with a small nail art brush. The pink I used is <b>China Glaze Life Is Rosy</b>. The orange is <b>China Glaze If In Doubt, Surf It Out</b>. And the leaves were done with a navy green called <b>Westside Warrior</b> by <b>China Glaze</b>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The base color for the wood grain and bling nails is <b>China Glaze Purr-fect Plum</b>. I was really excited that I had a polish that matched so closely with the wood of <a href="http://www.woodwatches.com/series/cora#45/#packapunchpolish" target="_blank">my watch</a>. To get the wood grain I mixed together some acrylic paint that was just barely darker than my base color and painted on random wavy lines. I applied the rhinestones and pearls using top coat and then applied more top coat on top to make sure they didn't fall off. The top coat I used was <b>Rimmel London's Lasting Finish Pro</b>.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I really love the way these nails turned out and I love how they look against the watch. I usually don't keep nail art designs on my nails very long, but I kept these on my nails until they were chipping and I had to take them off. It pained me to remove them, but at least I record and photograph them, right? They're not lost forever.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
If you want to see exactly how I did this nail art design, you can watch my video tutorial below!</div>

Now that I've talked about nail art... Let's talk about how gorgeous <a href="http://www.woodwatches.com/series/cora#45/#packapunchpolish" target="_blank">this watch</a> is shall we? <a href="http://www.woodwatches.com/#packapunchpolish" target="_blank">Jord</a> is located in the United States, but ships worldwide. They create a variety of amazing wooden wrist watches that are made from natural and sustainably sourced wood. They have a great selection of both men's and women's watches. Currently, their selection ranges in price from $120 - $295. The <a href="http://www.woodwatches.com/series/cora#45/#packapunchpolish" target="_blank">Cora Series</a> watch that I have here is $275. No matter the price, you'll get a gorgeous wood watch that you can wear with almost everything.</div>

A few of my favorite features in <a href="http://www.woodwatches.com/series/cora#45/#packapunchpolish" target="_blank">this watch</a> are the swarovski crystal hour markers. They sparkle, subtly in the sun and they are so pretty. I also love that you can see the gears from both the front and the back of the watch! The entire back of the watch face is see through. I should have caught a picture of it, but it totally jumped from my mind. Trust me, it's amazingly cool. Also, did I mention that they have multiple colors for this watch? They have a <b>rose gold</b> one and it's SO PRETTY!</div>

Another great thing about <a href="http://www.woodwatches.com/#packapunchpolish" target="_blank">Jord</a> is that they will size your watch for you before they ship it to you so you can assure that it will fit perfectly on your wrist. They provide you with an easy to print ruler that you can wrap around your wrist to determine your size. Pretty cool! You can also measure your wrist with a string. Either way, it's a breeze to make sure your watch fits the first time you wear it.</div>

My watch came on a pillow IN A WOOD BOX! A pillow you guys! In a fancy and reusable custom wood box. That's fancy! It might be silly to some, but it really makes a difference when you open a watch with an amazing presentation like this one.</div>

Happy 4th of July everyone! I'm going to make this post super short since it's a holiday. I created a water marble nail art design with a glitter and star accent nail. I think it turned out pretty cute even though I'm not too fond of the way the star turned out. Everyone I showed so far has loved it though, so I guess it's not a total fail.</div>

I used <b>Hail Nails VVS</b> for the glitter nail. For the base of the water marble nails I used <b>French White Creme</b> by <b>Wet n Wild</b>. The silver base for the star nail is <b>Gossip Over Gimlets</b> by <b>China Glaze</b>. The red and blue polishes I used for the water marble as well as the star nail are <b>Hey Sailor</b> and <b>Ride The Waves</b> by <b>China Glaze</b>.</div>

Hey everyone! I have some really cute nail art to share with you today! This design was inspired by <a href="http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-258183935.html" target="_blank">THIS letter set</a> that I stumbled upon on <a href="http://shutterstock.com/" target="_blank">Shutterstock</a>. It was too cute not to turn into nail art so here it is!</div>

I started with a pink base. I used <b>Feel The Breeze</b> by <b>China Glaze</b>. Then I used striping tape, marked off half my nail, and painted the other half with a blue polish. I used <b>Too Yacht To Handle</b> by <b>China Glaze</b>. The letters were done with black and white acrylic paint and small nail art brushes.</div>

I think this design turned out great! I had a hard time taking it off because I wanted to keep it on as long as possible. Don't you hate when that happens? Whenever you want your nails to last forever, they chip immediately, but as soon as you think about changing your polish that stuff is like cement.</div>

Hello blog readers! Today I have some polishes from Joshik to share with you. These were sent to me for free for review! I was excited to review these polishes because they are vegan, 5 free, and non-toxic, which means they are safe for children and pregnant women. They also have a UV inhibitor which will keep them from fading from the sun. I feel like vegan nail polish options are pretty limited. I wouldn't know because I'm personally not vegan, but I'd imagine they'd be hard to find. These polishes are $12 a bottle and can be purchased at <a href="http://joshikpolish.storenvy.com/">http://joshikpolish.storenvy.com</a></div>

I want to point out that lately I haven't been happy with the quality of my photos. I recently got new lights and I'm still trying to figure out what works best for photos within my camera settings. I believe I need a new lens because I have to do quite a bit of sharpening to my photos. My lens just isn't picking up the fine details in certain photos that I want it to. Looks like I'm saving for a macro lens! I used to be really into macro photography, and I'll be honest, I miss it. It will be nice to have a macro in my lens stash. </div>

<b>Believe</b> is a light grey cream. I have 3 coats without top coat in the photo below. The formula is really great and super smooth. I applied my coats pretty thin at first, so I definitely think you can get away with 2 coats, but I'm picky and like to make sure everything is even.</div>

<b>Dynamite</b> is a blackish, greyish based polish with silver and holographic shimmer. This one is awesome! It's sheer on the first coat which gives it a really cool smokey effect. I have 3 coats without top coat on my nails in the photos below. The formula is really smooth and easy to apply. The holographic shimmer can be hard to see unless you are in direct sunlight, but since there is also silver shimmer, it still looks great in every light. I really like this one! Especially for the smokey effect you can get with only one coat. I should have taken a photo of it, but you can see that in my swatch video below.</div>

<b>Groovy</b> is a medium purple cream. I really like this one! The formula is fantastic. It's super smooth and it makes the application incredibly easy. probably one of the easiest polishes to apply ever. I have 2 coats on in the photo below without top coat.</div>

<b>Luxe</b> is a dark purple cream with blue undertones. This one is also really awesome! I have 2 coats on my nails without top coat in the photo below. I love dark polishes like this. Again, broken record, the formula is super smooth and ridiculously easy to apply.</div>

Overall, I really like these polishes! I'm so impressed with the formulas. They are some of the smoothest polishes I've ever applied. The creams have a slightly thicker formula which I really like. They're really shiny without top coat, and the wear time is on par if not better than some of the bigger brands.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
