CQ: Slate + Sinful Colors Nail Art: Fashionista

Hey y'all! I'm so ready for this week to be over. I'm just over it. I'm sure y'all know what I mean!
So I've been trying really hard to step up my game with nail art. The first SC nail art polish I bought was Fashionista, and I tried that out here with a base of CQ Slate. I was kinda going for the tiger stripe deal, but I don't think you can really do that with a glitter. I don't know. Y'all will just have to let me know what you think about it.




I LOVE the CQ polish! I'm almost always impressed with the brand. And it only needed two coats, which makes me love it even more. If y'all didn't know, you can find CQ polishes at Rite Aid and they're about $3 I think. I'm not 100% on that price, but they're not expensive at all. And the Sinful Colors Nail Art polishes have been popping up at lots of different drugstores in my area. Those are about the same price as the regular SC polishes. I noticed that Rite Aid has the largest color selection. Seriously, like every color under the sun. I'll definitely be going back for more!
On another note, I think I've purchased way too much nail polish in the last few weeks. It's all flooding my desk, and just getting kinda overwhelming. Never thought I'd say that. But I think I need to pay more attention to what I'm buying. There are TONS of polishes I want right now, but it's really not good for my bank account. I need to focus on the bigger picture. Everything costs money, so I should be cutting back a little bit on the unnecessary things. Y'all did want to hear all that, right? Ha. Didn't think so.
Well that's all I've got for right now! I'm thinking that Thursday afternoon & Friday will be swatch days for me. I have a lot to get caught up on.
So what did y'all think of my nail art? What do y'all think of that CQ polish? Any other CQ fans out there? Let me know!
Thanks for reading. :)

Nail Art Practice

Hey y'all! I thought I would show y'all something different today. I decided to start working on my nail art. I don't consider myself an "artist" in any way, shape, or form. I'm literally the least artistic person on this planet. But you can always try, right? So here are my practice runs at nail art!
Base: Jesse's Girl All Things Girly + Sinful Colors Nail Art Time Off
Base: Essie Limo-scene + Sinful Colors Nail Art Time Off
Base: Sonia Kashuk Fatigued + Sinful Colors Nail Art Bad Chick, Fashionista and Jesse's Girl All Things Girly
Base: Sally Hansen Black Out + Sinful Colors Nail Art Bad Chick
Base: CQ Slate + Sinful Colors Nail Art Bad Chick, Fashionista

So those are the only ones I felt were worthy of a picture. I need some serious work on my "flowers." I can't get every petal the same size. My favorite is the very first one. It's like the easiest thing to do, so that's probably why I like it so much.
What are y'all's favorites? What can I improve on? What would y'all like to see? Let me know!
Thanks for reading! :)
