Hello everyone! Today I have some super fun and cute zig zag nail art to share!
My nails may look a bit bumpy here because I've decided to start a more serious no-buy, despite the fact that I'm almost out of top coat! I'm trying to conserve what little I have left, especially because I often paint other people's nails!
For this look I used a nail art brush I got off of eBay and then cut almost all of the bristles off of. I started off with two coats of OPI Care to Danse? for a sheer base! Then I just dabbed a drop of one colour at a time on a stack of paper and went to work!
Onto the pictures and names of the colours!
From thumb to pinky: Essie DJ Play that Song, Essie Bobbing for Baubles, Essie Tart Deco, Essie Mod Square, and NOPI "Baby" Blue!
From pinky to thumb: American Apparel Mount Royal, Essie Mojito Madness, Color Club Almost Famous, OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls, and American Apparel Poppy!
Both hands together!
Thanks for reading everybody! I'm back into nail art and feeling more like myself, so expect more fun designs! If you guys ever have any requests for a certain colour comparison post, a swatch of a colour, a review of a nail care product, or a certain kind of nail art and/or tutorial just let me know in the comments or on another of my social media pages! :)

Red Nails with Rhinestones and Random Shapes!
These are just some plain red nails I kept adding to because I thought they were too boring! The shimmery darker purple is NOPI Fanatical Fuchsia, the lighter purple is Essie Play Date, the yellow is the awesomely-formulated Color Club Almost Famous, the darker blue is China Glaze Ride The Waves, the lighter blue is Sally Hansen Pacific Blue, and last but not least, the red is Sally Hansen Madame X!
On my left hand I painted the shapes with a small striper brush, and on my right hand I just used the brushes from the bottles and a dotting tool! The heart rhinestones are from a tiny set off of Amazon!

Nyx Girls Mermaid Green with a Holographic Tip!
This is just a quick and simple mani because I'm waiting for five polishes that should come in the mail any day now! I just know I'll have to take these off and try out a new polish! I absolutely LOVE the base colour I'm wearing here, it's Nyx Girls Mermaid Green and it's the most gorgeous teal ever! This is just two coats with my current top coat, Essie's Good To Go :). The holographic top coat I'm wearing here is NOPI Make a Comet-ment, and I did the black stripes with Orly Liquid Leather!
I finally perfected putting curved text on my pictures from Kayla Shevonne's tutorial here, so these more professional-looking photos are here to stay! I'm also going to make sure to mention how many coats of each I'm wearing in future posts, and I'll put up a nail care post outlining the products I use and a review of them (including base coats and top coats) as soon as I can! Thanks so much for reading!

Eight Polish Haul Featuring Hard Candy's Sugar Rush!
I've decided I'm going to start using my sister's awesome camera to take pictures of my nails and other people's nails that I do! The quality must be better than my Samsung S3's camera and I hope you can all see the difference in these pictures! My polishing job isn't perfect, but these are pre-cleanup and I thought they looked pretty good!
I got five polishes from my boyfriend's mom last night (left) and three from my boyfriend (right)... they're so generous and awesome! :)
From left to right: China Glaze's Platinum Pieces, Nicole by OPI's Fanatical Fuchsia, Nicole by OPI's Stolen Kisses, Nicole by OPI's Silver Texture, and China Glaze's Oxidized Aqua :).
From left to right: Revlon's Whimsical, Hard Candy's Sugar Rush, and Essie's Good to Go Topcoat! Now onto the nails :).

NOPI's Make A Comet-Ment (a holographic topcoat)
This is just Nicole by OPI's Make A Comet-Ment over my previous mani! It's an awesome holographic topcoat my awesome boyfriend bought for me :). It was so sunny yesterday that I just had to try it out!
Bonus partial picture of my (also awesome) new high-waisted pants!
