Cookie Monster nails
This is one of the coolest things I have ever done. The nails are fuzzy with googly eyes! The way to do it is to buy flocking powder from michaels. Then paint you nails the same color as the powder. Then once it is dry put a thick layer of clear coat. Quickly stick the eyes on, then put a ton of flocking powder on the clear coat. And Tada! You have fuzzy cookie monster nails!

Fashion Forecast: Spring 2012
This spring what is really popular is color blocking. Above are two examples of some pretty easy, popular, and absolutely awesome color block designs. These designs are all about taking risks, because it is not cool to play it safe. The best colors to use are blues, yellows and oranges. Put yourself out there with fun designs.

All entries can be sent to: thenailguru9@gmail.com . Please include the picture of your nails along with a brief description of why you chose it and what you used or even your inspiration. Please put your name too, even if it is not what you want me to post online I still need it, along with the name you want to be known as online!
There is no limit to the number of entries. I might even consider finding another blogger for the blog, but no promises.
Gradient Nails
Do you like them? To create this effect use a makeup sponge.
First dip the sponge in water.
Next take your 3 to 4 colors and paint them on in stripes (onto the sponge)
Then press the sponge 2-3 times onto your nails
And then you will have a great gradient.
