Stress Nail aka Brush Stroke Nails

I so love these nails and they were sooo easy to do and no tools were needed besides a toothpick to do the cleanup.

I got the inspiration for these from Sarah of Chalkboard Nails - her blog is off the chain so make sure you click on the link and check her out.

Well let's get right to it - all colors used were by SinfulColors continuing my neon theme.  For my base coat I used two coats of TimbleBerry which is a orange creme with a tint of pink more so on the coral side.


After I applied my base color I used the following colors to apply the brush strokes:


  • Innocent - Neon Lime
  • Dream On - Matte Magenta
  • Rise and Shine - Blue with a hint of Green
  • Ice Ice Baby - Clear base chrome blue glitter






After your base coat is dry or tacky you can began your random brush strokes as I did here:















































I was sooo stressed out while I was doing my nails but overall I think they turned out ok....next time I try them I will make sure I get more coverage of the base along the edges.

Dotticure - Sinful Colors


My first Dotticure and it turned out great...I don't like really busy nails so I only went with my ring fingers as accent nails.  I really had fun doing this one and the color combinations are endless.  For this particular one I chose to use my neon colors before Summer is completely over.

If you don't have a dotting tool you can use a toothpick or ink pen...anything with a small
round dot to it...remember the bigger the tool the bigger the dot so you wanna stick with something really small.

For my base colors I chose Sinful Colors Dream On which is a matte magenta. when you apply this polish don't be alarmed after it dries - this polish does not have  a glossy finish you must apply a top coat but only after you're completely finish with you manicure.

On my index fingers I chose Rise and Shine which is a blue with a hue of green - one of those colors that can go either way.  I applied two coats of this polish and it was not matte like Dream On.

For the dots on my accent nails I chose the following colors:

  • SinfulColors Innocent - Neon Lime
  • SinfulColors Dream On - Matte Magenta
Well pretty much that's all I have for you today - give it a try it's really fun and once again you have endless color combinations.

Wigin' It; If you can't make it - fake it!

Well those that know me well no I never go to the shop to get a weave every since I was traumatized with my first weave experience.  I mostly wear detachable hair - very rarely do I get my extensions sewed in. In fact I can re-create just about any hairstyle I like or should I say that interest me and the best part of all is that I can take it off at night if I choose to. I will soon be posting some of my custom creations but for right now I just want to rave about Model Model 3/4" Invisible Part Wig.

I was sooo excited when I found out that they created the U-Part Wig or as they call it the Invisible Part Wig in which you will see in the video below:

The wig goes for $23.00 to $25.00 and it is a synthetic unit that is heat safe up to I believe 350 degrees.  One think I can't stand is when people where their hair straight out the box...Please shape your unit to your face - cut and style it to fit you and trust and believe no one will ever know.

I have watched thousands of U-Part Wig Tutorials and half wig tutorials on YouTube from Fabulasityisme ,teasedblackpearlz and Muffinismylovers2012 just to name a few...I could go on and on but I like tend to ramble so I will stop here.

Well anyway I  provided you with these ladies YouTube Channels and now its up to you to do your research.

This unit can be purchased at HairSisters.com  click here to go directly to their site.


I've strayed away from God too long!

 I'm sooo tired of being angry and lately seems like I can't catch a break.  Mentally I have secluded myself from my family and friends.  The smile you see is not because I'm happy or enjoying the moment; it's because I'm scared to reveal my pain or hurt.  I feel like I can't trust anyone - at times I just need to call a friend and just vent without them giving me their thoughts or perspective on the situation...just shut up and allow me to speak and just listen; is that asking too much???  My question to you is "What do you do when you feel you have strayed away from God too long?"

I know that God is a forgiving God and he will never leave or forsake me - but I feel like I have strayed away from him too long to be on his priority list.  My grandmother always told me that God is in your heart you just celebrate him in a building.  I took her saying and ran with it - when I actively attended church I felt embrace by God and the spirit that took over the building.  I felt protected with GOD'S LOVE!

Lately it's been a struggle to go back to church.  I love my pastor and his
teachings even though I don't agree with everything that is said or taught and that's ok.  Overall, he is a great messenger of delivering God's messages.  People tend make the statement that "The Devil is Busy", my take on this is, everything can't be blamed on the devil.  I feel like those who have been so called "SAVED" has a Godly conscious which allows you to have a relationship with God himself.  The spirit didn't hit you by accident nor were you forced to make the walk to be delivered.  A spirit presented itself within you and you chose to say "GOD! HERE I AM!"

I know my relationship with God and I can't speak for others but I know God gave me a conscious - When I know I'm doing something I'm not suppose to I  feel guilty.  When I'm doing something right or pleasing I'm rewarded and/or doors are opened that I didn't expect to be unlocked.  God works in amazing ways and I know this.  I know I'm a child of God and honestly I'm only able to stray so far before I feel him pulling at my shoulder asking me "Where do I think I'm Going???"  So everything is not the devils doing: it's your guilty conscious.

I make up sooooo many excuses for not going or making it to church on time - but yet I make it a priority to get up for work on time and going about my day without any excuses.  The MIND is a powerful tool.  Your BRAIN controls your body.  Everything we do or think is processed by the brain which signals the body to process what you are feeding into it.  For example if you tell yourself you don't feel good guess what you don't and all of a sudden you start to feel sick.  When you feel positive energy into your brain you get positive results and when you feed negativity into your brain well you get it I hope.

As I'm sitting here typing this I'm starting to feel like somewhat of a burden has been lifted off my spirit.  For those that know me well writing has always been my outlet and my way of venting.  Initially, I grabbed my laptop for this to be a very nasty and angry posting.  I wanted to cuss and fuss and rant about how I hated those who hurt me and the stress I am currently dealing with in regards to some personal things that are going on right now.
Lyfe sung it best!!!!!  Check it out!

When you are doing something new or for the first time you're initially hesitant or a little scared because you don't want to mess up sort of speak.  Lord knows that I'M learning to obtain something that you never had -you have to do something that you never did.  In the process I'm questioning relationships - My granny always tell me "Everyone you want to be your friend don't want to be friends with you".  The older I get the more I take heed to that statement.

I feel soo much better as I bring this posting to a close.  I'm glad I didn't allow my emotions to cause me to embarrass myself and post something I would later regret allowing negative thoughts and emotions to have control over me.  However, I continue to struggle with my relationship with God.  I know he HE LOVES ME!!!!! I struggle with the pressure of having to be this person of perfection and walk the walk of a so called CHRISTIAN.  I'm sure many will not view this post - but's its ok.  I know someone is going through a similar situation and this posting will find it's way!

Double Dose of Pink Sin - Sinful Colors



I am sooo in love with the lip gloss I can't help but to be a little bourgeois when I put it on...it's Puck Up Baby by SinfulColors which was recently bought out by Revlon.  "Did I say I was in LOVE with this Lip Gloss...LOL".  It's really light and not thick at all and the pigmentation is wonderful.  You only need one swipe across the bottom lip to obtain a full opaque lip...I think this is my favorite to date and for $2.99 you can't go wrong purchasing this product - heck I wouldn't be surprised if the price went up due to the quality of this little jewel.  If I'm not mistaken I believe they have about five or six other colors.  You can view other colors by viewing Shades of Beauty Blog click here.

Another pink favorite of mine is SinfulColors Forget Now which a a pretty rich pink shimmer polish which is totally awesome....I can't say enough about these two....the only thing I will say is grab them both.

I'm Out!!!!!!!!!
