Aggies Do It Better

Hey guys :) Here's some simple nails for #simple for #nailartFeb on IG. I love these challenges because they give you prompts on on what to do and I love seeing everyone's interpretations of the ideas! This is one of my 2 Deborah Lippmann's. It's called Baby Love. I only own it because I picked it up on a super clearance sale. It's beautiful but SUPER shear. This is 2 coats, over a ridge-filling basecoat. (note: because we had a rare sunny day in the winter you guys get double the pics. yay!) Please excuse my super nubs. ugh. shade sun I thought, I should add some glitter over this, no? OPI Pirouette My Whistle, one coat. shade sun Then I thought, I should layer another coat of Baby Love over that, no? shade sun

 Hey guys!!! It's Cinderella's turn! You can see my nails I did last year when I ran the Princess Half   here .  This year I wanted to do something different.
