Beige Gradient Nails

hello~

its Monday! time to start another week.. =/ sorry i've [still] been very MIA. uhm, just to mention..starting this week, im picking up even more hours at work. another 7 hours... -__- im very thankful that i have a job & that i can get more hours into my schedule...but when im at work, im never really in a good mood cause of the customers & some coworkers... and i dont want to spend my summer 32+ hours at work..ya know? but i should just suck it up & work the hours i can before school starts in the fall. [wheph! im done ranting now.. =P]

alright, onto nails... i redid a new mani on Saturday night but the sun wasnt really out yesterday..so im finally posting today.


4 coats of Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Beige Blast. i didnt want to use 4 coats but i wanted good coverage... so 4 coats was needed. i then did a small glitter gradient using Cover Girl's Disco Dazzle & some rhinestones. and then on my ring finger, i have 2 coats of my unnamed Hot Topic silver polish.

gotta head off to work soon so this post is gunna be short--

have a great start to your week!,

    sooooooooooo pretty. I thought you were going to do a beige gradient =( ...but I think I like this even more =). Turned the frown upside down. it's so classy. where do you work that let you wear crazy nail polish?

    how long do you work each day? and now + 7 hours more? that's crazy. I just got a job and i'm pooped and my job is only 7 hours long M-F

    Really unique combo, I dont think I've seen a beige gradient before, let alone a beige/glitter gradient :) the rhinestones are also cute too
