Sorry, Montréal Laqueristas, we’re not friends tonight

I’m going to the Minnesota Frost v Montréal Victoire hockey game tonight and I have to rep my team’s colors.

(Just kidding about not being friends, Montréal. All supporters of women’s hockey are allies!)

I work for a tax firm and every year for tax deadline, I wear the same polish. It's green (my favorite), it’s an easy creme, and it has the perfect name for the season.

I have been seeing soap bubble designs from the gel nail artists for a while and I was curious if I could achieve it with regular nail polish. I mixed up some soap bubbles in a cup, applied a layer of topcoat on a plastic bag and then a layer of color over that. Before the color could dry, I spooned the bubbles over and let it sit until it was dry.

I applied a teal jelly on my nails and then peeled off my soapy nail decals and stuck them on.

These needed a least 2 layers of top coat. I probably should have gone with a glitter grabber instead.

In the end, I’m not sure how I feel about this look. It’s giving sea coral. It’s giving bubbles. It’s giving trypophobia.

What do you think?

I'm not the biggest Star Wars fan, but I am a big fan of beautiful cookware.

The Tatooine sunset from A New Hope is already one of the most beautiful images in the series, but put it on a Dutch oven and I'm in love. From the screen to a dutch oven to my nail.

I did this design waaaaay back for Sara's (No.H.Nails on Instagram) birthday, I wanted to recreate one of her awesome manis. Did I have to scroll for a long time to find something I could accomplish? Don't worry about it.

I thought this combo was super fun! In Sara's original, she used two discontinued Holo Taco polishes, Born Ugly and Chameleon Coat. I have neither so I tried to play the dupe game.

Did I pick where my multichrome design went based on where my matte topcoat deposited weird white flakes on my nails? Why are you asking so many questions?
