Batman Live

As you can probably tell I did not finish the This is Halloween challenge, it was a choice of mine around the 23rd. I just got tired of going with a theme every time.  I think it has something to do with that I was doing the 31 day challenge before and actually stops in the middle to do this Halloween one, I just got to me, I actually have a few manis that I just never had time to post. I dunno if I'm going to post all of them now or what since it's now after Halloween but we'll see. 

Anyway onto what I'm showing you today We went to see the Batman Live show, it was awesome and I did my nails to match some of the characters. It was fun to come up with, my boyfriend and I sat down and came up with each nail idea then had to sit down and pick all the colors. And it was a lot of different colors so I am just going to list all under the first picture any questions on specific colors just let me know.

Red Black Carpet

So I am totally ready for it to be fall already, this past week we've had some colder days, but it usually gets hot in the afternoon or just stays in the 60's. Which is fine, But then the next day its blazing hot again, Ugh this New Mexico weather is so weird. I know its just me I am just dying for it to be Fall and/or Hoodie weather (another one of my obsessions I can't get enough of them) or more specifically Nov, or at least Halloween since my birthday is right around the corner from that. Yay I can't wait... Anyway enough of my complaining, on to the nails...


 I actually have another French Manicure for you I really like the look of them, and felt like another. But I did change it up a bit.
So for this I taped off about half my nail diagonally painted them with Sinful Colors Black on black, and sponged on Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in Red Carpet. So here it is...

 So as you can see when I pulled up the tape it lefts some trails of  black, but in person this was not nearly as obvious as in my pics. 
Despite that I still really like these.
Also please excuse the slight tip wear have been wearing these since Fri morning, and just got around to taking pics today. But they have held up really well, no chips or anything yet. I am probably going to take this off tomorrow but only because thats how I am and have to change every couple of days. 
 So both these colors were new to me, I picked up Sinfuls back on black awhile ago but never got around to really wearing it, I think I have found my new black complete opaque in two coats, not like most others that take three coats at least sometimes four. 
And Red Carpet is one I saw on a blog a few weeks ago, But only just bought recently, And I love it, I just sponged on a bit on the tips of my nails to add some pretty sparkle. 


Used: 
base coat
2 coats Sinful Colors black on black
Sally Hansen xtreme wear in Red Carpet sponged on
Seche Vite topcoat.





















These pics were all indoors with flash, and heres one without flash to show what this looks like most of the time indoors.

Time to shine...

Recently I went in search for some decorative edge'd scissors to do some tape manis with. Found a four pack like this at my local walmart for only $5, the price kind of threw my boyfriend and I, since one pair of these scissors were like $7. Not sure if they were priced wrong or on sale or something. Didn't really matter to me I was just excited to find them and at such a reasonable price.  And then my oh so great boyfriend bought them for me, of course telling me I was spoiled the whole time... Oh well it's ok to be a little spoiled right.

Anyway back to the my mani, so this was actually my first attempt at a tape mani (literally using scotch tape, I've used stickers and such), I used the scissors with the Squiggle design (Yes that is a technical term hehe), at first I could not get the scissors to cut the tape cleanly. Well I should of known right away, but sometimes I forget how hard it is being left handed. Ok not really just using knives and scissors are a PITA sometimes. So after realizing this I grabbed the scissors with my right hand and cut the tape and what do you know it worked on the first try. Of course right.

My nails were already painted with Avon's Vamp it Up so I just taped my nails off and painted with Sally Hansen's Time to Shine. Let me tell you I am not a big fan of Gold anything like shoes, polishes, or especially jewelry ugh, but this color is soo pretty I think it's one of my new favs. Ok now on to the nails, the important stuff right. First three are of my left hand, last two are my right hand. Enjoy.
