The Coolest No-Polish Nail Polish with a twist!


 Be the envy...of everyone with fingernails, around you...with this awesome "no polish" finger nail art!
I've been wanting to try those "finger nail sticker" polish strips...so finally on my way to the check out at Target...I picked up a Houndstooth and Glitter set of  the Sally Hansen Salon Effects Polish Strips
...to  try these out and create this fun twist!

MY TAKE ON THE POLISH STRIPS:
*super fun and looks so much cooler than regular polish
*the box said it last 10 days, but mine didn't last that long...but I'm really hard on my nails. They did last wayyy longer than normal nail polish though.
*They come off really easily when I removed them. I just pulled them off after a few days, I didn't even need polish remover.
*they seemed pricey at about $8 a box with 16 strips inside...BUT since my nails are not super long....I would cut one strip in half and use the other on the opposite hand that fit that finger size! More BANG for your polish buck!

I wanted to add something different to these...so I cut one finger into a diagonal angle and matched up another piece to give a little fun unique somethin'-somethin' to this look!


I got so many compliments on these...and to tell you the truth, I think this is my favorite "nail polish" I've ever had...everytime I would put my hand on something....I'd just look at my nails a few seconds and think "these are so cool!"

Now come hang out with me as I show you how to apply these babies to your finger tappers...
how to make a cool design with the polish strips
and how to save some bucks and get double the use out of these...unless you have 2 inch finger nails! ha ha ha


yes, I'd like to think that Gwen Stefani...would be like, "these are Rad!"
love and houndstooth..your kandee

Lions and Tigers and ZEBRA nails, oh my!!!

Kid Sister (below) blew up with her song "Pro Nails"...and as she makes statements with her stylie-finger-tappers...so can you....

to know me...is to know my love of animal prints...ha ha ha ha
I like how classic animal prints are (think 50's glam)...and how they always come back in style...
I never think they are out.....but that's true style...you wear what you love, no matter who says what's in style! ha ha ha ha
So let's head to ZEBRA-town....

and yes....I did my toesies too! They don't want to be left out in high toe-bearing season!


I watched the lady in a salon do it...and I thought "I can do that...she's just randomly wiggling the brush every, here and there"....easy peezy!

here's what you need:
any polish to be the base color (I used a white from Wet N' Wild....super cheapo)
the super cool LA Colors ART DECO polish makes this sooooo easy (I used black, but they make all kinds of colors...(you can get them at
www.statusglam.com)
let's go have some fun!
