My first step is always a clear coat to protect my nails. Second, I used China Glaze in Spontaneous to tip my nails. (Advice: To get professional looking tips, lay your hand on a flat surface, and position the brush at the tip of your nails. Instead of moving the brush, move your finger in the direction you want the polish.) Then I made four white dots in a circle for the petals. I used the Sally Hansen Nail Art Pen in white to do this. It is like a marker so it saves time. You could also use the tip of a bobby pin and dip it in a color to create petals. Finally, I used China Glaze in Solar Power to creat the center of the flower.

Very Simple Flower Nails!
This was kind of a rush design! I hate naked nails, and I had to leave soon so I made it as easy as possible.

Electric Yellow Zebra Nails!
I love zebra patterns, and this yellow color makes it super fun! I used China Glaze Solar Power for the base coat and a black nail polish with a thin brush for the lines. The really thin brush makes it super easy to make lines.
First, I made a sideways letter V on my nail with the black brush. Next, I made a thin line above the V and bellow it. Finally, I made a line across the top of my nail. Super easy! :)

How to Get Super Curls!
I love bouncey curls! It sorda reminds me of Taylor Swift's hair. It always makes me feel super girly.
I always use my Chi Iron Guard before I using any type of heat on my hair. It protects my hair and keeps me from getting split ends. One bottle has lasted for a long time too.
This is the tool that makes the magic happen! This is the Conair Infiniti curler. It has a small barrel that is perfect for creating ringlet curls. I just twist my hair around the barrel starting from top to bottom. It can go up all the way to 400 degrees, but I use it on the lowest heat setting. My curls always hold. I got mine from Sally Beauty Supply for only $40.00. Anything with a small barrel will do the job though. I don't like for mine to have a clamp either. It makes funny lines on my hair!

Makeup Tutorial: Two Toned Eyes!
When I am in the mood for a fun makeup look I love to play with colors. So I tried out the trendy two toned eyeliner look. Its fun and completely wearable!
I used Urban Decays eyeliner in electric under my eye waterline. It is a stunning blue color. I used Urban Decay eyeshadow in flash on my top lids. These two colors are so vibrant and make a great combination.

Hair Tutorial: How to Make a Simple Hairbow!
First Step:
Create a ponytail on the crown of your head.
Second Step:
Take a second hair band and tie it around the end of your hair in your ponytail. Keep a small section of hair out of the second hair band
Third Step:
Split the hair between your two hair bands in half. You should still leave a strip of hair to the side.
Fourth Step:
Push the second hairband behind the first, and where you split your hair should fall to each side. Secure it behind your head with a clip or bobby pins. Now, all that should be left is that one strip of hair.
Final Step:
Take the last strip of hair and pull it in the middle of your bow. Secure it behind your head in the clip or with bobby pins.
Its super easy and super cute. I hope you give it a try!

Cute Polka-dot Nails!
I love a cute and easy nail tutorial! I don't have the tools or patience to do any super detailed nail design, but when I do my nails like this they always get attention. It is super easy, super cute, and it takes practically no time. I hope you enjoy it.
First, I use my Revlon base and top coat to protect my nails.
Second, I use my light pink China Glaze nail polish in the color Exceptionally Gifted. It is a light color so I paint two coats.
Next, I take my China Glaze nail polish in the shade Spontaneous and drop a few nail polish drops on to a paper plate.
I dip the ball of this pin into the purple color and dot it all over my nails in different patterns.
This is the final product! I use different colors to create different styles. Have fun with it!
