The Meme Week Nail Art Challenge: Day 7 - Ain't Nobody Got Time For That

Today is the last day of the Meme Week challenge, Ain't Nobody Got Time For That! This meme was inspired by Sweet Brown (aka Kimberly Wilkins). She was asked to describe the fire at her apartment complex and she retorted, "Ain't nobody got time for that!" The meme is used when mentioning any time-consuming task, such as reading the terms and conditions for anything.

For this mani, I decided to do something I kept putting off so I could swatch and do other nail art. I've seen variations of this mani on instagram and have wanted to do one ever since! The time is finally here! I chose to use cool pale colors in order to avoid copying the variations. I love how the finished mani looks like a pastel galaxy. It was completely unintentional!

I used Sally Hansen White Out as my base to ensure the colors I sponged on would be opaque. Using small pieces of a makeup sponge, I randomly sponged on China Glaze Re-fresh Mint (mint), Sinful Colors Sugar Rush (blue), Sally Hansen Lacey Lilac (purple), and Love & Beauty Pink (pink). The glitter topper is Candy Lacquer Balloons in the Air. I topped it all off with Poshe Super Fast-Drying Topcoat.

What do you guys think? Let me know!

See you guys on the other side of the day!

The Meme Week Nail Art Challenge: Day 6 - Condescending Wonka

Today is Day 6 of the Meme Week challenge, "Condescending Wonka"! This meme is used to mock or make sarcastic statements. I'm pretty indecisive about this one. Sometimes I like it and other times it's not my cup of tea.

For this mani, I drew inspiration from my favorite Willy Wonka candies as a child. :D The index has colors similar to the Laffy Taffy candies, the middle shows the Nerds candies' packaging, the ring is the Nerds Candy Rope (my favorite Willy Wonka candy!), and the pinky is the cross section of a gobstopper. Of course, I couldn't forget about the chocolate river and what Wonka is known for! My thumb features drips of chocolate on purple, the color of Wonka's signature suit.

Thumb: Essie Little Brown Dress (brown) and Sinful Colors Amethyst (purple). The drips were drawn with the second largest dotting tool.
Index: Love & Beauty Pink, Sinful Colors Ruby Ruby (red), Color Club Almost Famous (yellow), Sinful Colors Innocent (green), Sinful Colors Sugar Rush (blue), and Sally Hansen Lacey Lilac (lavender) over a base of Sally Hansen White On (white). The swirls were drawn with a small nail art brush.
Middle: I first painted on Amethyst (the purple side) and then Love & Beauty Fuchsia (the fushia side) using their brushes. I used a small dotting tool to make irregular blobs, using Wet 'n Wild On a Trip (medium purple) and Barry M Dragonfruit (medium pink).
Ring: I first painted on Ruby Ruby for the base. Using a small dotting tool, I used White On (white), Innocent (green), On a Trip (purple), Almost Famous (yellow), Sinful Colors Citrine (orange), and Sinful Colors Timbleberry (pink coral). 
Pinky: I used Almost Famous (yellow) as the base. Using a medium dotting tool, I used Ruby Ruby (red) to make the center of the gobstopper. With a small nail art brush, I used Innocent (green) to make the outer coating.

What do you guys think? What's your favorite Wonka candy? Let me know!

See you guys on the other side of the day!
