31DC2013 Day 11: Polka Dots + Going Pink for BCA!

Hello, gliterry puppies!! Happy hump day! Since October has come to an end (almost), and since it's Breast Cancer Awareness month I decided to dedicate this design to the cause. Did you know every 2 minutes, there is a new breast cancer diagnosis? And every 14 minutes a life is lost to the disease? 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer and 85% of those diagnosis don't have any family history. It also affects men; of the more than 40,000 (forty THOUSAND) deaths for breast cancer, 400 are men.

This is no joke, and I think every women (and men) must do a self-exam and have a mammogram done twice a year. Let's help minimize breast cancer diagnosis and spread the word! Not only this month but all year long!

The colors I used were China Glaze Surreal Appeal and Color Club What A Drag.

I painted my nails with two coats of Surreal Appeal (I can never get enough of this pink!) and then used my large dotting tool to make some big dots along the mid section of my nails, then using a small dotting tool I made more rows of smaller dots on both sides of the first round of dots. Finally I topped it all with my matte top coat, I used Color Club Matte-Ified.

I hope you liked this post and I'd also love if you spread the word about this topic that has reached some of us very closely. Take care of yourself and take care of others.

Love, Pam♥

Dot Dot Stripe Dot

Hello, magical unicorns!! Happy easter to everyone!!! :D I hope you all are having a great time:) I'm going on vacation tomorrow, yaaaay! Anyways, today I have a mani I really loved when I wore it, a lot of people complimented on it and I enjoyed a lot doing it. Here it is.

I used Color Club Catwalk Queen and Color Club What A Drag for this simple but cute nail art. On my left hand I freehanded some stripes on my index and pinky and I painted some polka dots using a large dotting tool.

Then on my right han I painted a simple polka dots pattern using a small and a large dotting tool.

I really loved this mani! I hope you like it as much as I did:) Sorry about the quality of my crappy camera. Have lots of fun this holiday!:) See you all gorgeous unicorns soon.

Love, Pam♥

Velvet Red ft. Silver Dots

Hi, lacquered ladies! I know I said I would be posting two more nail arts last week but number one: time's just flying by lately, number two: finals are eating me alive!!! Seriously, and they enjoy it:( Aaaaand last, number three: my house's being painted so it's really been a pain in the butt.

But well, I did have this religious thing that turned out to be sooo tiring and (not because of the religious thing, but fo other reasons) turned out to be one of the worst nights of my live :( Sniff. But as I had to wear something for the day (night) so I decided to match it with my dress. I actually didn't have a dress until two hours before the event, but as soon as I bought it and took a look at my stash I knew I had the perfect color: Color Club Resort To Red. Oh.My.God. This color!!! It's just amazingly beautiful!!! And it matched perfectly my dress. But I couldn't wear it plain, so, since my dress was plain, I decided to add a few dots (I know, I'm a dot-addict) and I went for silver dots.

I decided to do a simple and quick nail art since I didn't have much time, but one that I adore. I first saw this on the Polish You Pretty blog here and I loved it!

And here's my attempt:

I used Color Club Resort To Red as my base color and Color Club What A Drag for the dots. I used a small and big dotting tool and when I was done I covered with one coat of  Color Club Matte-Ified.

I loved how this ended up looking and I loved how it looked with my dress. The only two good things about my night:')

I definetely enjoyed and I hope you liked it as much as I did, this week and until january I'll be doing christmas nail arts. My favorite time of the year! See you soon!

Love, Pam♥
