More Swatches...

This is what I am currently wearing on my nails: Zoya 'Sloane'.

This is a deep black cherry color with an amazing shimmer of red and purple. I tried my best to show the shimmer but it is one of those 'hard to capture' effects. Anyways... I hope you like it!

Rescue Beauty Lounge 'Ani'

My favorite shimmering nude in my collection is (can you guess from the title): Ani by RBL.

 It's a sheer (but buildable) peachy champagne that compliments my skin tone perfectly. While all in all I am not a huge fan of nudes (whether it be lips, nails, or the like) I can make an exception for this polish. I'm wearing it at least once every few weeks at the moment. Here are some swatches and I hope you all are having a fabulous weekend!

Sorry for the oily cuticles; I'm testing a new product and my cuticles have been kind of dry (and torn up) so I slathered them with Mango Cuticle Oil.

Need Nail Art Supplies?

I've just opened an online nail art supply shop! You can check it out: All Nail Shop.The reasoning behind this is that I get asked numerous times where to find the basics (swatching wheels, dotting tools, rhinestones, etc) so instead of directing you to a hundred different sites I figured that I could just provide the tools for you! I'd love it if you glanced through and checked out the items we carry. I will be adding some different and exciting items shortly but I figured this would be a great general preview! Any questions email me: audrey@allnailandcosmetics.com

Peacock Feather(esque) Nails

I have been dying to try a peacock nail design for the longest time but every time I sat down to put something on my nails it looked awful. For this design I focused on the feathers (instead of the whole bird) and voila! I actually have something reminiscent of a Peacock feather! I was amazed! (notice all the exclamation points!)  Now there are things that I would do differently if I had them to do over but, for now this will suffice. I hope you enjoy and let me know what you think in the comments, I really do enjoy reading them.
BTW if you ever leave a question in the comments I will answer it on that same post so you need to come back and check it or you can leave your email address for me to respond to. Also if you'd like you can email me directly: audrey@allnailandcosmetics.com
