Sharpie Neon Design

Purchased by me

So the other day I bought these really cool neon sharpies! I don't really use sharpies that much, but I thought these were cool for some nail art! I got these at K-Mart.

They come in a pack of 4 which brings neon green, pink, orange and yellow. The colors are great! They are also fine point markers so that's a plus!

Now, I decided to create a design on my nails. The ideas were endless which made it more difficult for me to choose one... So I came up with this:

I love how the colors pop with the white. I've prepared a little tutorial on how to do these so here it is:

You will need a white base, or maybe even black. I used Snow Me White by Sinful Colors Professional. I applied two coats and sealed it with my HK Girl top coat by Glisten And Glow.

After your top coat is dry, start creating the designs. You can start with any color you like. I started with the neon yellow, followed by the pink, green and finally orange.

After I was done with my designs, which I decided to do on my ring, middle and pointer fingers, I added tiny dots on my pinky and thumb using all colors. 

Now, once you're done doing designs on your nails, the next logical step would be to seal it with your favorite top coat. But, since we are using sharpies, using a top coat will melt the color and it will make it look faded. Trust me, I tried! Lol

Here's a picture to show you the difference between top coat vs no top coat. Wonder if you can tell which one is which!

See?

Now time for a video tutorial! 

I hope you guys like this look. I'm not in love with it, but it still looks cool under the black light! Maybe I'll try doing a different design sometime. :-) 

Thanks for stopping by and don't forget I have a giveaway going on which ends tomorrow Saturday 24th at 5pm EST. 

#RoarForAutismAwareness

Hello Ladies!

So the lovely Amber, @amcpolish, hosted a special cause. This cause was about creating Autism Awareness by doing a nail collaboration!

Now, I don't have anyone in my family with autism, but you don't have to to spread the word about it.

I decided to join in because I believe this is a great way to spread the word.

So, what we had to do was to create a blue mani with animal prints in it! I created a simple blue mani. I love how it turned out. I didn't want to take it off after two days (that's how long my mani last.. usually) but, since I couldn't post it just yet, I had to change it up so I can post something to my Instagram. LOL

So, without further ado, here is the finished collage Amber created!

There were many ladies involved in it, so if you would like to check out their solo shots, just search for the hashtag #roarforautismawareness! =) 

I think the collage came out great! I love how it all came together and how all these ladies tool the time to be a part of it. All these manis are gorgeous! It was fun creating this mani too! 

Here is my solo shot!

I love it!!!

Sky shot!

I don't know why but I love this shot! LOL

It's Macro Time!!!

Look at those holo glitter!!!

Now, for the names of the polishes I used for this mani:

Sinful Colors Professional- Snow Me White

China Glaze- Frost Bite

China Glaze- Fairy Dust

Color Mates- Stormy Weather

So, to close this, I will say that if you get the opportunity to join a great cause, do it! You won't regret it! I promise!

I'll be posting a quick video of how the mani looks with Fairy Dust on instagram, so stop by and check it out! ~~~> @Nails_by_Xoch
