Coming Back For More - Hanson

Hello Everyone! I wanted to do a quick post today & show you my birthday nails!

Seventeen - Stars Go Dim

Well, I went to the Stars Go Dim concert.. they were playing with A Rotterdam November.. I was SO excited for this... i thought there would be a lot more people there... but it like a kick back.. not even a concert. it was such a sit down atmosphere.. i was disappointed. BUTTTT the highlight of the night didnt come from either of those bands.

But before i get into that.. ill show u the nails that i wore to the concert :)

it sort of looks like pond water with algae growing on top. but i like it. hahaha the glitter is just wayyy more amazing that u would think. Its Call You Later by Sinful Colors.. its a bronzey green glitter. i mean... i cant even explain how much i love it. and for .99c?? u cant beat it. yyaaaa likkkee???? But the best part of the night was definitely when a couple of friends from Tulsa (who also like SGD) told me to go up to "Mike Left" and say YEAHHAHAHAHAHHAHH.. which of course i did.. and then they told me to ask him to sing. ANDDDD with little effort.. i convinced him to. He is actually super good. obviously. ANNND you should like him on facebook. k? CLICK! Here are a few shots of the bands... this is Stars Go Dim. It was such an intimate performance.. and by intimate.. i mean like.... 30 people. i was into it.

This is A Rotterdam November.. i was suprised by them too... super good. Brittany and i talked to the guitarist guy for like.. 30 minutes after. evidently he eats fish balls?? hahah jk. but u can check them out toooooo. PS - the guitarists guys name is Dylan - like die-lan. i like it. and doesnt he look like Mac Hanson? yes.

Pink - Aerosmith (((((DUPE!!!)))))

MY FIRST DUPE POST!!!!!!

I have for you today one of the CLOSEST dupes that I have ever encountered. I have never even seen a blog post a dupe that is THIS close. I bought both of these in the same week thinking that surely they wouldnt be EXACTLY the same... but I was wrong!!!

These colors are China Glaze - Shocking Pink and Sinful Colors - 24/7. Theyre TOTALLLY the same!!!

See they are TOTALLLLY the same... The colors are soooo much alike its insane. I actually wore both of these.. and to be completely honest.. the sinful colors lasted longer with out chipping. I mean they ARE neons, so that was to be expected.. but used a good top coat (color club 0-60) and the china glaze chipped within HOURS of application. completely irritating. However.. it did seem to dry very fast on its own... but the sinful colors did take a bit longer, even with the fast dry top coat.

All in all... the color is fun.. but the price difference is crazy - I paid 5.99 for the china glaze color at sally's beauty... and I paid 1.75 for the Sinful Colors polish. If u just HAVE to have this color - Might I suggest saving a little money and going for the cheaper polish at walgreens! I really did love the Sinful Colors formula more so than the CG!

dontcha think thats a CLOSE dupe?? I do.

Zebra Nail Tutorial

So the other day one of our readers asked me to do a zebra nail tutorial.. so here goes nothing!

What You Will Need: a nail art brush in any color. I used sinful colors:nail art that I got from walgreens for 1.99. typically I use art deco from the dollar tree, since im cheap and all.

Next you will just choose your base color, I just used american apparel: cotton

After that has completely dried, just take the nail art brush and make slightly wavy lines about half way across your nail - i like to start from the corner and sort of go up and diagonal. i think it looks not so generic lol

Continue adding the lines until you have as many as you think looks good, and then add the wavy lines to the other side... going into the empty spaces between the other lines

After you have done this on all nails, just look at your nails and add 'filler' lines anywhere you think there is a gap - it should look similar to this when youre finished. BTW i left the ring finger white for an 'accent nail' but you dont have to do that.

SOOOOOO, did this help?? I will make a video later for our youtube acct and add a link!
