Sharpie Dots with Anchor & Heart Lacquer & Seventy Seven Nail Lacquer

I recently read a blog post where someone used a sharpie to create nail art. This is such a cool consept! So of course I had to try it. I mean what kind of a blogger am I if I don't right? 

The colors I'm using today are: 
Snowflake Kisses by Seventy Seven Nail Lacquer, a silvery white base filled with silver holo glitters.
Mermaid Kisses by Anchor & Heart Lacquer,a bubblegum pink with violet shifting glass flecks & shimmer.

I started off using 2 coats of Snowflaw Kisses on my ring & pointer fingers & 2 coats of Mermaid Kisses on the rest of my nails followed by 1 coat of topcoat. Once dry, using a gold sharpie I drew dots on all my nails followed by 1 more coat of topcoat. 
Outside lighting

No inside lighting pictures today, I took these then went back to bed to sleep off this cold. 

Overall I like using a sharpie for nail art. Only 1 thing though, I should have waited longer before applying topcoat because it did smear the sharpie in some spots.

Once dried took my dotting took & put it on the brush of Boys Of Summer to get polish on the dot tool.  Then I I applied dots to my outside nails.

Stud Accent with Blush Lacquer

I have a brand new indie brand to show you all!  I've been seeing this brand on Facebook so I decided to give it a shot, plus I just happened that I ordered during a her August launch, which is funny because I was in the impulse buying mood.

The colors I'm using today are I'm No Clown by Blush Lacquer.

A light neon pink jelly

And Batter-Up! By Blush Lacquer 
A glitter topper filled with holographic black, gold and silver glitters and a darker blue shimmer.
I started off using 3 coats of Batter-Up! on all nails except my accent nail, on my accent nail I used 3 coats of I'm No Clown followed by 1 coat of Glisten & Glow HK girl topcoat. Once dried using tweezers I picked up a square stud by Parental Advisory Polish, applied a dab of HK girl topcoat to the bottom of the stud & applied it to my accent nail. I repeated  1 more time & applied 1 more coat of HK girl topcoat to seal the studs.
Outside lighting
Don't you just love the neon pink?

Inside lighting

Honestly I first I thought I'm No Clown was a cream not a jelly.
I have to say I was very pleased with both colors, they applied easily, no staining & no issues what so ever. Just a heads up though, Batter-Up does dry with a texture but once you apply a topcoat the tenure is gone.
