Whats Up Nails - Dragon Powder

Hey there!

Press Sample

I am sure you have seen all the buzz about these new chrome powders for nails.  The have taken over Instagram and YouTube and nail blogs for the past few months.  I can understand why because they look amazing.  So reflective!  I have been reluctant to try them because you need to use a gel top coat to make it last and I don't use gel polish.  Actually...I am pretty darn terrible at gel polish.  I have only tried it once before and it was a complete fail.  I very much wanted to try out these chrome powders, so I figured I would give it another shot.  Be prepared to see some fails in this post.  Not because of the chrome powder...because of the top coats that I tried.  The chrome powder I tried was called Dragon Powder from Whats Up Nails.  It is a chrome finish with a green to gold to red multichrome effect.  It is part of the Magic Shifting Powders line.  The effect is stunning!

V-Day Mani Fail!

I wish I could share my beautiful Valentine's Day mani with you tonight but I can't. You see, my V-day mani was a complete and absolute failure (sort of like my love life at the moment, lol).

I started with OPI Danke Shiny Red and added some white hearts using my dotting tool. This was my first time using a dotting tool to draw hearts and it wasn't as easy as it sounded. I ended up giving up and just wearing plain red because I couldn't get the hearts even and it looked horrible!

Happy Valentine's Day! (Whether you're single or in a relationship, celebrate love for family and friends!)
