Mani Monday: Mighty Mango

Hey,

This manicure got me so many compliments and the combination looked so amazing together. A lot of people also asked if they were meant to be lady bugs, but really this was just me using a topcoat I don't get many opportunities to use. For this manicure I used Sally Hansen Mighty Mango and put China Glaze Whirled Away, I love the way the two pair together. I used the Sally Hansen Insta-Dri topcoat. I do believe this lasted me half of the week before chipping. The china Glaze polish was a limited edition and I do not believe it is still available. The color is a bit more orange in person.

Thanks for reading, please leave any request below!

Also I have a post coming soon on my favorite summer polishes.

NOTD: Easter

Hey,

I have a Mani Monday coming up tomorrow, although it's on what I had on my nails last week but I just painted my nails for Easter, it's like midnight on Saturday, well Sunday now. But I wanted to share my Easter nails with you, I mainly stuck with pastels and then added white polka dots, I personally think it's super cute and looks like little Easter eggs. I also uploaded an Easter ETOD, which you can check out here.

Colors used:
China Glaze Fade Into Hue, blue
China Glaze Tart-y for the Party, purple
China Glaze Re-fresh Mint, mint
China Glaze Peachy Keen, peach
Sinful Colors Beautiful Girls, pink
Sally Hansen White Out, white

I used Sally Hansen Insta-Dri top coat, I did these pretty fast and my whites starting to get goopy so they did come out a little messy, but I think that just adds to them and makes them look cuter, I added the dots randomly too and the colors aren't on any finger for a reason, in fact both hands are different.

Happy Easter!

How to get white haired brushes stain free!

Hey,

I love white haired brushes, but I hate how even after you clean them it still looks like they are dirty! I know I personally don't like my white brushes to look like they still have eye shadow in them even though they don't. Since these are natural fibers usually, I personally don't want to use alcohol on these; so this is how I get all the color out of my white brushes. **This works for me but I'm not promising it will for you, but its worth a try.**
This is incredibly simple but an overlooked thing; this is a time consuming thing but not to bad, only about twenty minutes. So what I do is soak my white haired brushes in hot and soapy water for twenty minutes and then I just wash them like I normally would. You only want to use enough water to cover the hairs, you don't want it to get in the ferrule. This is so simple but yet it works and even though it takes some time, you can do this first and while those brush soak, just wash your other brushes. For stained synthetic brushes you can do the same thing or you can use alcohol, this is great for both face such as foundation and concealer brush and stained brushes.
