NOTD: Nerd Lacquer Quasar

Hello lovelies!


I hope you are all enjoying your weekend so far! I am so excited to show you this mani, I absolutely fell in love! Quasar is one of the first Nerd Lacquer polishes that caught my eye. There is so much going on in this bottle! Here is the description straight from Amanda: a blackened pine green with holly green and silver glitter, olive and chartreuse microglitter, small and medium emerald hexagonal glitter, and generously spiked with fine and ultrafine holographic sparkles.  I love the dense yet not too chunky glitter! This is 2 coats, with my usual Cult Nails Get It On and Wicked Fast base/top coats.


So gorgeous!

See the holo glitter?! 


One more picture for good measure ;)


Pretty awesome, right? I have to admit I am pretty proud of myself for how much better I am getting at clean up. I recently started using a small eyeliner brush and acetone to clean around my cuticles. It has taken some practice and I'm still not perfect but I love how clean and professional it looks! Now I just need to take care of my cuticles regularly. Oh and another new thing-I started using cut up squares of white felt for removal vs cotton balls. It works so much better and no cotton strings getting stuck to my hands/nails! This glitter still tore up the felt quite a bit but a layer of cheap top coat softened things up and made the job easier. Do you have any tips that you swear by?


Before I go just wanted to remind everyone about my 100 follower giveaway! There is still time to enter so be sure to do so if you haven't already! :)
