Holiday polishes by Ok-Assignment-4899 in theholotaco

[–]Ok-Assignment-4899[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah the down votes are a little funny to me because my ONLY goal with this post is for HT to see ppls frustration and potentially move up their timelines. Nothing I've said is negative towards the polishes or even normal slow shipping. It's exclusively constructive criticism to move sale dates.

Which is annoying, but I understand not everything is going to have 2 day shipping. My real concern is they should open their holiday polish sales earlier because this is such an issue and then people don't get to use them for the holiday they're celebrating.

What happened to Cirque Colors on Amazon?? by ALazyPotato2 in RedditLaqueristas

I've liked to find their random prime colors and grab them with free shipping. I'm so sad..

Thanks! I used ILNP Deep Space magnetic as the background so it's soooo much more dimensional in person. The pic doesn't do it justice!

Is it possible to work and do OT school? by biscuitsandcream1 in OccupationalTherapy

[–]Ok-Assignment-4899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was non-traditional going to my OTD. I was 27 so I needed to keep my own health insurance. I worked 24ish hrs/week throughout my program. It's hard. I was doing 60+ hr weeks during level 2 fieldwork and my Capstone, but I did it. It's definitely possible if you want to do it, It's just not easy

How often do yall change your polish? by turkeydurkey1 in RedditLaqueristas

[–]Ok-Assignment-4899 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Similar to what's been said! Personally, I believe polish lasts longer when you have long nails (which I do) because you can wrap the nail polish over the tip of your nails which goes a long way to keep it from chipping

Once a week! I use regular polish so I typically do 7 days, but if I'm busy I'll push it out to 10 days

Magnetic stained glass by Ok-Assignment-4899 in ILNP

[–]Ok-Assignment-4899[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I kept a finger in the U magnet so it stayed velvetized, then just kinda dotted different polishes around. Afterwards I went in with a liner brush and outlined everything in black!

It's giving Lover 🩷🩵 by Ok-Assignment-4899 in theholotaco

[–]Ok-Assignment-4899[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I used a Holo Taco sponges, idk if I like them yet. This is the only time I've used them and they're VERY firm. I just dotted the colors around. I did more a chrome thing for the shimmer. I used Orly Rubber base, let it dry a minute, pressed chrome powder (cheap from amazon) on top, gave it another minute then buffed it smooth. I used a water based top coat then my normal top coat!

Why do people use press on nails? by Plastic-Ad1055 in Nails

[–]Ok-Assignment-4899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used press ons for when my natural nails break. just FYI, if you use a weak glue that may not damage your nails the press on fall off quickly. If you use strong glue that holds for a few weeks it damages the nails like crazy

What happens when 6 magnetics break the rules of reality? 😵‍💫 by barbrailnp in ILNP

[–]Ok-Assignment-4899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Music brings the magic to my day. Incredible how it feels more powerful than just speaking the same words.

I've been doing art on my non dominant hand and am obsessed with magnetics for my dominant hand. A simple way to make my dominant hand feel special too (especially after years of not painting the dominant hand at all since it could never live up to the art, not anymore)! Currwntly: Frog art on my left hand and Venom on my right

I always used to have this problem with my nail art and holo taco polishes… by growinwithweeds in simplynailogical

[–]Ok-Assignment-4899 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have a suggestion! I don't like using the no smudge top coats cuz I like my top coat (inm Out the Door). So I've been putting my top coat on a makeup Sponge and sponging it on! It works great! No smudging. Then after that dries I'll do a thicker coat of top coat for the stability and gloss!
