Mickey and Minnie Cartoon

Hey Sparkler,

As if we all didn’t already know I LOVE all things Disney! It is one of those natural things being a kid in Florida, and having an uncle that worked there! I seriously went 6-7 times a summer and twice in the “Fall”! I was there ALOT growing up! I mean y’all saw the post each Disney Princess got!

Anyways on to the nails, I mean that’s why we have all gathered here! I started with my favorite base coat Sally Hansen Diamond Strength. Next I painted all my nails with Cult Nails Evil Queen. Don’t paint two fingers, you can either do one accent per hand or as I did two nails next to each other. Using Nevermore again a Cult Nails color create semi-circles on the bottoms of the two unpainted nails! Using a large dotter tool create two dots on each end of the semi-circle. Using a striper or a thin brush outline your red nails with a thin line. Go back to one of the mickey heads, create two red triangles facing each other bam you got Minnie! On your red nails using a white striper on one edge of your nail create a swoosh, at the bottom of said swoosh add a dot. Let your nails dry and add matte coat to the red nails and a super shiny clear to Minnie and Mickey. BAM!your done Disney/Cartoon nails!

These were soooo fun to create if you have any other questions on the Cartoon nails check out cutepolish on YouTube.

Hope you have an amazing day!

Stay Sparkly My Friend!

Julep Pastels

Hey Sparkler,

Now I am fully aware that these colors are from my March Maven box. However with the spamy spam that happens at the first of each moth with new colors I put them aside… Besides the fact I was still doing Shellac with Karen! Being an It Girl I tend to get 3 colors and I don’t know if that is by chance or if It Girl is always 3…

The colors that came in the box are Simone a gorgeous pastel lilac with a metallic sheen, Shenae is an opalesnt mint green (my favorite maybe), and the last color is Teri a perfect coral.

I only needed two coats with all three of the polishes however I could have gotten away with one coat. I am that crazy I just have to coat them all twice!

For my nail art I just used my handy dandy tape! I wanted to mix shapes however I am so OCD I couldn’t mix the shapes so on my left hand I have triangles and on the right rectangles. There is the spring trend of color blocking in any way you choice to do it adding the pastels make it that much sweeter!

I do want to admit although I live in Florida and I am Caribbean and Central American I can look pasty and these colors do bring out the golden undertones of my skin!

Seriously you want these colors! If you already have them show me what nail art you’ve done or how the lovelies look on your skin!

Remember if you recreate these looks or your own versions let me see! Tag me on Facebook or Instagram!

P.S. I was listening to Thrift Shop and Pitbull Radio on Pandora! It is nearly impossible to type and concentrate due to all the head bobbing and chair dancing!

Hola Sparkler,

Ahora soy plenamente consciente de que estos colores son de mi caja de Maven marzo. Sin embargo con el correo no deseado spamy que ocurre en el primer día de cada polilla con nuevos colores los pongo a un lado … Además del hecho de que todavía estaba haciendo Shellac con Karen! Siendo una niña Es Tiendo a tener 3 colores y no sé si es casualidad o si It Girl es siempre 3 …

Los colores que vienen en la caja son una hermosa Simone pastel lila con un brillo metálico, Shenae es un opalesnt verde menta (mi favorito quizás), y el último color es Teri un coral perfecto.

Sólo necesitaba dos manos con los tres del pule sin embargo que podría haber salido con una mano. Estoy tan loco sólo tengo para cubrir a todos dos veces!

Para mi el arte del clavo que acabo de utilizar mi cinta excelente práctico! Quería mezclar formas embargo estoy tan OCD no podía mezclar las formas así que en mi mano izquierda tengo triángulos y los rectángulos correctas. Existe la tendencia de primavera de color de bloqueo en la forma que desee hacerlo añadiendo los pasteles hacen que sea mucho más dulce!

Yo no quería admitir, aunque yo vivo en Florida y soy del Caribe y de Centroamérica puedo mirar pastosa y estos colores no poner de manifiesto los matices dorados de mi piel!

En serio quiere estos colores! Si ya ellos me muestran lo que el arte del clavo que has hecho o cómo las bellezas ven en su piel!

Recuerde que si se vuelve a crear estos looks o sus propias versiones me dejas ver! Me on Facebook o Instagram Tag!

Quedranse Brillante Mis Amigas!

PD Estaba escuchando Thrift Shop y Radio Pitbull en Pandora! Es casi imposible escribir y concentrarse debido a toda la cabeza flotando y bailando silla!

Cinderella

Hey Sparkler,

A dream is wish your heart makes when your fast asleep.

My alllllll time favorite Princess!!!!! I can remember as a little girl taking a bucket with a rage and sitting on the floor cleaning it like Cinderella did in the movie.

I created two looks for Cinderella. The first using a brush I created a foe gradient. My base coat was Orly Dayglow. Then half way up I used Sinful Colors in Cinderella (=] ) two-thirds down Color Club Chelsea Girl, one-third down China Glaze Frostbite and on the tippy tip Julep Carly.
Number of polishes~ 5
Time~ 2 minutes
Difficulty~ *

This last one was hard, but you can do it practice on paper first. Paint the entire nail in Sinful Colors Cinderella or Cult Nails Princess and let it dry. Then using a tiny stiff bristled brush create a small line and I mean small. Follow that by creating two vertical lines attaching to the small horizontal line.Create a curve from the right line down. Now a small semicircle, a dramatic curve from the semicircle going up. Then a curve from your top dramatic curve to the top of the left line. Finally fill it in. Cinderella has a glass heart on her shoe I just placed a darker blue rhinestone. For her shoe I used Milani’s Key West.

I now need a princess movie marathon or to run the Princess Marathon…

What’s this about a Princess Marathon? Every year disney has a Princess Half Marathon which is 13.1 miles through Walt Disney World here in Orlando. They have other runs as well as Goofy Challenge which is 39.3 miles in one weekend, 13.1 on Saturday and 26.2 on Sunday. And I want to run them both! Well I recently decided I was going to start running, I’ve been complaing for a long time about my weight and if a 96 year old woman can run 13.1 miles I can sure as hell do it. Of course it takes time,so I started training. It is a great way to get healthy lose weight and cost next to nothing. The only real cost is entry fees. Hence my slight absence I’ve been sick and trying to train. My first 5K is March 16! So excited! I’ll keep you guys updated as I train and paint my nails.

Minnie Mouse

Hey Sparklers,

Before you say she isn’t a princess she is the first lady of Disney and happens to be a princess in The Three Musketeers.

This is another very simple one. Create “french” manicure using Bubblegum Pink by Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear. Then using Black Out by Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear and a dotting tool create 2 largeish circles a little apart from each other. Connect the two circles and the pink with a semicircle. Using your handy dandy white striper create a line in between the pink and black. Using a small dotting tool or tooth pick create a polka dot pattern on the pink.

Princess Leia

Hey Sparkler,

Idont know where you get your delusions laser brain.

Although not a traditional Disney Princess she became one when Disney bought Lucasfilms in October 2012 and releasing a new movie in 2015. This is actually exciting I don’t LOVE Star Wars but I will watch it. I remember watching it with my dad when they had marathons and going to watch it in theaters with my brother.

I did not do much with this particular one because honestly I could not think of anything but her light saber. So I created one. Using a black striper on the tip stripe 3 or 4 thin lines. then using white a line coming from the black, this is going to hold your pink rhinestones. Next i added a green and red rhinestone to be the on off buttons. I think it looks adorable.

Rapunzel

Hey Sparkler,

And when I promise something I never ever break that promise!

This girl has some hair! I would die if my hair was that thick and long! Anywho. Paint your nail a purply-pink I used Wet N Wild Megalast in Through the Grapevine. I then using Orly Luxe created a curve line from about 1/3 down to the tip of the nail. Using my China Glaze Ingrid I created little chevrons on the “hair” you can also use a darker gold, this makes it look as if it is braided. Finally some flowers, using Color Club in Twiggie and a tiny brush create 5 lines making a star add a rhinestone and there you have it a flower.

Tiana

Hey Sparkler,

It serves me right for wishing on stars. The ONLY way to get what you want in this world is through hard work- Tiana

There are only 2 princess movies I did not watch Princess and The Frog and Tangled. I know I know bad Disney Princess bad, I just couldn’t bring myself to since I didn’t watch them growing up but after Brave I almost feel like I have too!

I noticed everything for Tiana had light colored flowers, was light green, or invloved a frog. So I painted the entire nail green using Color Club in Twiggie. Let that sit and create a backwards gradient using Julep Colbie. I then added some pre-cut flowers along the side. I promise I’ll find the movie and watch it.

Pocahontas

Hey Sparkler,

If you kill him you have to kill me too- Pocahontas

The great thing about rivers is you can’t step in the same rivers twice, the waters always changing always flowing! AHHHHH this movie I LOVE! This is another very simple nail art. Paint the entire nail in Milani A Rose My Lady. Then using a small brush create lines that make a “necklace” I used Julep Carly and Marion. In the middle of the necklace using 5 rhinestones three then two then one create her jewel. Bam Pocahontas nail!

Jasmine

Hey Sparkler,

Now forgive me for what I am about to say but as much as love Aladdin I can’t say Jasmine is in my top 5 princesses. Honestly I don’t know why. =( Back to the art you say alllllll right!!

First I painted the nail in Essie’s turquoise & caicos. Next using a large dotting tool place a large oval of Milani’s Key West in the center. Finally add rhinestones in a golden color around the entire oval. There you have it her jewel from her headband! Did the names of the polish make you want to go on vacation too?
