Reese's Peanut Buttercup Nails

There is something I have to admit. I have a big problem with Reese's Peanut Buttercups! I even hide them from the rest of my family, lol. It's not like they have a liking for them either, but I guess somewhere in my lil' ol' head, I think they will eat them all. Oh well. I know I can't eat them if I want to get back to my pre-baby weight. That makes me sad.

I used Zoya's Nina for the dark, dark brown on the thumb, Revlon's Electric for the yellow base color, and Sally Hansen's Insta-nail's Orange Impulse for the orange. I used acrylic paint for the other colors and details.

Man, It is Hot Here

I live in the high desert in Arizona, and boy is it getting hot. It is a dry type of heat but still... it's hot.

I am also an instagram newbie, and I have been loving it. It gives me new ideas by way of monthly challenges. This one is for the month of June (#nailartjune).

The first thing that comes to my mine for the word "summer" is the sun. And this is my nail art for the sun.

I used Essie - Orange, it's Obvious for the orange, Zoya's Creamy for the yellow and Zoya's Richelle for the gold. Then I took a skinny dotting tool and dragged it toward the gold. Not exactly how I wanted it to turn out, but it will do. Next time I will use a brush to drag it out.
