The Day I Broke My Nail

Holo this is my second story about nails! enjoy!
     It was the summer of 2017 and I was jumping on my trampoline minding my own business, then as I tried to do a cool new flip I just taught myself how to do I landed wrong and mind you my nails were long and as i did my "cool flip" (its not so cool now) my hand went down first and I broke my nails on my whole hand and it looked like this:
 They all split different ways and it hurt for a long time and took quite some time to grow back out, and I had to wear ugly looking band-aids on my fingers for at least a month it was absolute horror. Not being able to paint your nails for that long made me very impatient. But then they grew out and finally one month later the first time I put nail polish on my nails I thought to myself "so this was worth the wait?" by the way it wasn't. Now my nails have never been the same, they have there own scars and many dents on them and its not pretty so that is why I make dedication to always paint my nails! Thanks for reading my totally horrific story and ill see y'all later BYEEEE!

Breaking Down The Basics Of Holographic nail polish

Holographic nail polish 
Holo its me Stephanie i`m here again to talk to you about holographic nail polish, there`s a big difference on what I consider Holo and what isn't Holo. First things first you need to learn the basics, holographic is shiny rainbows like this:
 And iridescent nail polish looks like this:
Often times people get these two types of looks mixed up because they look so similar to me the second photo isn't holographic because it does not project the shiny rainbows like the photo above it.Holographic polishes can come in many different colors too like these:
But in the end I still like normal holographic nail polish even though the colors are pretty. So I hope y'all enjoyed this small but simple post. but ill see yall later BYEEE!!!!

Telling A Story

My Good Nail Art Day
  Holo so this weekend I was getting really bored with my old nail polish so I decided to repaint my nails. I was originally going to do something different but i just chose to do what I did and changed it a little from the original photo from the famous youtuber simply nailogical which her nail design looks like this:
So she did her gradient but in the middle of her nails she made it look cooler by splitting it up but for me I only did mine one way and my nails turned out like this:
It was getting really late so I decided to cheat with my design and just do my pointer and middle finger the reversed gradient. Then I just used holographic nail polish on my thumbnail. Lastly I did a simple gradient on my ring finger and pinkie cause like i said  was lazy and didnt feel like actually completing my whole hand.. so thats all I will see yall later BYEEE. oh yeah and if you want to see the original video on youtube from simply nailogical and how she did it check out this link!!

Guest Post: Jamberrys



Hello everyone! This is Megan from Megan`s Blog Today I will be taking over Stephanie`s blog. She is my Best Friend. I'm writing about Jam-berry`s because she doesn't know what they are and how to use them. So lets get stared.






Jamberrys are like stickers. There are many designs and colors. They are so easy to do. If you don't want to paint your nails or you are too lazy Jamberrys are the things you would want. Its cheap, the only thing that is not is cheap which is the heater and you only have to buy that once. You can buy them anywhere, in stores and online. The supplies you need are the heater and of course the sticker deigns. And a nail filer and other things if you want to make it look better. The heater comes with a scissor sometimes, it depends what one you buy. This is the heater, its small so you can bring it where every you go. 

If you wear fake nails and you know that they come off a lot, than you should get Jamberrys because they don't come off easy unless you bite them off or just peel it off. They are cheap but it depends where you buy them. There are really cute deigns. Here are some examples.
These are only a few of them. There are thousands of them. I hope you guys will try these. I did them before and I loved them so much! I encourage Stephanie to do them now. So that`s it thanks for reading this post!


Peace Out from Stephanie`s blog!

Essence Nail Stamper Review

                                                                     *Review*

Background: I am reviewing the Essence Nail Stamper set that comes with everything you need to make effortlessly designs on your nails. For me personally I love having the option to make an easy design other than free drawing it which i`m not good at doing.

The good: The directions that are stated on the package are very detailed and are very useful if you are just starting to use the product. The plate is very small and you can choose from other design packages if your going for something different

The bad: I remember buying this product 7 months ago over the summer and i was super excited to get home and try it out i skipped the directions they had on the package because i`ve watched many videos and thought i could go on my own, but i put a highly pigmented polish over the plate and used the scraper to scrape it off (and disclaimer right as you open up the package throw the scraper away because it just scratches up the plate which scratches the design and then it doesn't work after that) just use an old gift card or something. Even though this product is very cheap at your local Ulta if you have just started using this product spend a little more money and get a better stamping set i will leave a link below for a good brand to use: Best nail art stamper.

Conclusion: Even though there are some negative reviews about this product its cheap and it creates cute designs and its only like 4.99$ at Ulta i still think its pretty convenient and easy to use. Like i said if you are just starting to use it go and spend more money and get a better one that has more designs that just the 9 that come with the stamper.

Score: For me i would give this product a 7/10 and i would highly recommend it, if you want to do some cute designs. 😁


here are a couple photos of the nail designs i did:
