Pink and Gold X Nails

Hello everyone!

Since I really enjoyed re-doing my blue quatrefoil nails last week, I decided to recreate another one of my favorite manis! This one is an oldie but a goodie: my pink and gold X nails from when I did a mani swap with Julie from @ wannaknowasecret! (Her username is now @ julie_awouters). 


When I first did this mani, I used individual straight nail vinyls to create the X shape since I didn't have my beloved right angle vinyls yet (can you believe it?!)


Check out my original version from over 2 years ago here! It's awesome to see my improvement over the years.


Keep on reading to see how I created this design!

illimité Impressionism Collection (Swatches and Review) | NailsByErin

Hello everyone!

Today I have a swatch and review for the entire Impressionism Collection by illimité! These polishes are exclusive to Live Love Polish and are designed and made in New York City.


I was so excited when I received these from LLP because I have seen them all over Instagram, and they looked so gorgeous! The polishes all look so unique and I love the packaging and design of the illimité brand. The bottles come in little white boxes and have the beautiful gold illimité logo across them. Plus, I absolutely love how the line is inspired by past artists and their work!

Beach Nails (Re-do from 4 years ago!)

Hi everyone!

Today I have a recreation of one of my old designs (from July 2013!!) I did some beach nail art and since I was going down the shore this weekend, I decided to recreate this design.

Plus, a recreation was kind of necessary. I always cringe when I look back at my old nail art, and this was no exception. But on the other hand, it's great to see how much I've improved over the years!

Keep on reading to see more pictures and find out how I created this design!
