Manicure Monday - French Cream and Purples !

This Manicure Monday features purple french manicure. 

I bought the Manicare 'Perfect French Tip Tapes' from Priceline a while back, tried them, failed and forgot about them, but then I stumbled upon them while cleaning and tried them again. 

Let me know what you think about them.

I have used Chi Chi 'Capital Him' as my base, Sportsgirl Nail It in 'Bossy Boots' as my french tip and Fing'rs nail polish* (no name on it) as my accent nail. I love how the Fing'rs cream shade looks as an accent nail.

The Manicare 'Perfect French Tip Tapes' are a quick and easy way to do a french manicure at home compared to doing a free hand tip. 

One big tip for using them is, make sure your nail polish is completely dry otherwise you will end up ruining your mani, which is exactly what happened when I used these the first time. This time I used them the next day after applying my nail polish to be super safe :)

If you are not comfortable doing a french mani free hand, give these tapes a go.

Have you used french tip tapes before ?

Manicure Monday - Shades of Purple with a touch of glitter !

This Manicure Monday brings to you 'Shades of Purple', with a touch of glitter. I have used Chi Chi 'Capital Him', the light purple, Sportsgirl Nail It in 'Bossy Boots', the dark purple and an accent nail in Sally Hansen 'Big Money'. 

I love blue and purple nail polishes, I am also a fan of purple and blue eyshadows.. Maybe I should do a purple EOTD sometime..Anyways, here are some pics of the mani..

I have used Sportsgirl polishes in the past and have always been impressed by them. Am using Chi Chi and Sally Hansen glitter for the first time, so far, so good, lets see how they wear..

Which is your favorite purple ?
