I've been wanting to try mixing my own polish for a while, so I finally gave it a shot and made this pearlescent polish (although its more like an iridescent top coat). It reminded me of pearls, the ocean, and the beach, so I went with a palm tree look.

I Donut Care
DONUTS!!!! I could eat them everyday. Although then I'd be shaped like one. So I'll have to settle for donut nails...which still look delicious and make me want to eat donuts. Ahhh!

Avengers Assemble
For the inaugural 2014 runDisney Avengers Super Heroes Half Marathon Weekend at Disneyland Resort, limited edition Avengers Dooney & Bourke bags and wristlets were released. I was lucky enough to get a cute cross-body from my aunty for Christmas! These nails are inspired by the purse.

Leopard Love
Leopard print may look tricky, but it is one of the easiest animal prints to paint. The design doesn't have to be perfect, and the more imperfect and messy, the better. And it looks great in any color! I chose an apricot and gold look for a fab feminine look.

Party Animal
This is a super easy look to create. Just a makeup sponge and some polish, and you get a cool watercolor effect under the stamped zebra stripes.

Lucifer
a.k.a. Rucifee (as Jaq pronounces it), is the devilish pet cat of Lady Tremaine, the evil step-mother. While the evil step-mother is the true villain in Cinderella, she isn't a fun choice for nail art. So, I decided to paint Lucifer instead for the eleventh look in my Disney series.

Snake In The Garden
This is of course a take on the serpent in the Garden of Eden. When I first thought of this idea, I wasn't sure how it would turn out, but I really like it. The snake scales are just stamped, and then I freehanded the apple.

Poor Unfortunate Souls
"Poor unfortunate souls. In pain, in need." Ursula is based on the "sea witch" character in Hans Christian Andersen's story The Little Mermaid. In the Disney version, she's a purple skinned, octopus bodied, sorceress. This is the TENTH look in my Disney series! I'm glad it's a good one and turned out nicely.

Must Love Dogs
Just a cute simple mani today. I painted these nails because my parent's dog (whose Instagram account I run @gracie_the_boxerpit), was tagged to do a paw picture for #purinalendapaw. You post a pic holding your pet's paw with that hashtag, and Purina will donate a bowl of food to a shelter.

Birthday Swank
The special request for birthday themed nails was a two-look request...a bright birthday nail, which I did last time, and a chic black look. For this look, I just kept a black and silver color scheme, with some stamping, glitter, and nail tape.

Mirror Mirror
"Mirror, mirror, on the wall. Who's the fairest of them all?" I'm back to Snow White again for the ninth look in my Disney series. I'm using one of the villain Beautifully Disney sets, so of course this look is the Evil Queen.
