Guest Post: NailArtInc!

Hello there!
My name is Julia, I just turned 17, and I got the chance to write a guest post for Chrissy's blog. I'm a nail polish lover and nail artist like her, and I sometimes do photo tutorials, too. So today's post will be about something I love: sea nails!

Guest Post: Lab Muffin!


Hi, I'm Michelle of Lab Muffin and Polish or Perish, and I'm filling in for Christa while she's away. Today I've got a manicure I did and loved recently - I love nail art, but sometimes I just want a quick, pretty layering combo!
OPI Live and Let Die is one of my favourite vampy shades - opaque in one coat with a cool microglitter finish, but I used two coats here because I'm a bit pedantic. Over this, I added some Nubar White Polka Dot, which has white hexes and little semi-transparent iridescent glitters with a faint tinge of red/green multichrome going on, that only really comes out when you layer it over a dark polish. Unfortunately the glitter isn't very dense, and the hexes are pretty annoying to get out of the bottle. It's pretty similar to OPI Pirouette My Whistle, but PMW has silver dust glitter instead of the multichrome bits. I'm not sure which one I like more - PMW is more versatile, but when the multichrome works, White Polka Dot is stunning. This manicure reminds me of snow falling on dark trees - something I don't get to see much, living in Australia!

Guest Post: DRINKCITRA!

Hello beautiful readers of ChrissyAi.com! I'm Traci from drinkcitra.com. Christa is one of my dearest blogger friends and I'm very excited to have been given this chance to share a post with you here! Thank you so much for the opportunity to post on your blog, Christa!

I would like to introduce two black and white glitter polishes I received from Victoria, the maker of a polish line called Serum No 5. These are the first black and white glitters that were added to my polish stash and I couldn't wait to try these out!

I used Maybelline's "Impeccable Greys", a deep grey shade, for the base, and topped it off with Serum No 5's "Thanks for the Memories" and "Happy Special Day". "Thanks for the Memories" has a beautiful combination of blue and green glitters, while "Happy Special Day" is accented with a rainbow of glitters!

Although this is a simple glitter manicure, I hope you like it :)
Thanks for reading and thank you again for having me, Christa!
Traci

Guest Post: Captivating Claws!

Hey Fans of ChrissyAi!!  I'm Jodi and I have a nail polish blog called Captivating Claws.  Christa recently asked for a few bloggers to do guest posts for her and I jumped at the chance!  I just recently became a huge fan of ChrissyAi and her beautiful make-up and nails!!  She's so talented!!

I decided to try some nail art with all the colors in LVX's new Spring Collection.  Christa and I both share a deep love for LVX, so I thought this mani was quite appropriate.. I saw this post from Chalkboard Nails of a "Spray Marble" and wanted to try is asap because I love water marbles. Here is a youtube tutorial from cutepolish that shows you how to achieve this look. (I used Bath and Body Works body spray instead of hand sanitizer)
