Happy MANICure Monday! So apparently after I did my minion nail art last week for MANICure Monday, I suddenly developed delusions of grandeur and thought I was the sh*t with some nail art. So since animated movies are always a big hit during the Summer there was a plethora of things for me to choose from to recreate. After stepping on noticing one of my girls’ toys from Monster’s Inc. I thought “Oh I should try to paint Mike Wazowski from Monster’s Inc and Monster’s University for next week’s mani!”.
See this is where that foolishness should have stopped. But no, I decided to search on good ol’ Google and Pinterest for some ideas. After searching I was like oh this will be a breeze! And I had the perfect green from my Julep box that I got 2 months ago named Mackenzie.
So I painted on 2 thick coats of the Julep polish followed by my favorite top coat, Salley Hansen Insta-Dri top coat. I plopped on one dollop of the black polish followed by a smaller dollop of the white and an even smaller dollop of the black again for the pupil. I drew on a black mouth with my nail art pen then added teeth with my dotting tool with white polish. And the end result is this Cyclops that is supposed to resemble Mike Wazowski.
So I’m just going to stick to what I know and stay away from animated characters for a bit…LOL! Heck next week I may just do a downtown scene or a beach. HAHA!

You are MUCH too kind Jeanne! Now if I could just have some of your craftiness rub off on me I’d be set! You have a great week too! 😉

Awww… that GREEN is perfection! I just ordered some Julep polish… See what being sick do to you. It will have you ordering stuff off the internet that WE don’t even need cause I surely don’t need anymore polish!
Also, I guess it would’ve helped if I had listed the polish colors on my blog post! Hmmmm… lol
Coily Locks says
Lynn I reread the post and was like did I miss the colors somewhere??? LOL And yes being at home sick will have you ordering all kinds of foolishness. It was bad when I was on maternity leave and those dang infomercials would be calling my name at 2am…LOL!
Stacie says
Looks like you have a thing for characters! Great job as usual 😉
Coily Locks says
I’m done with the characters for a while! This little one eyed monster didn’t turn out like I wanted…LOL!
