It's November!

Happy November, everyone!

Even though the calendar says another month has gone by, our Halloween contest is still open for new entries until November 7th, 2010. We have a lot of really great entries so far, but you still have a good chance to win the ENTIRE Migi Nail Art collection!! You can visit our Youtube channel to see all the details, and why not subscribe to us while you're there! =)

*And don't forget, the SPOOKY coupon code is still valid throughout the duration of the contest. Entering SPOOKY will get you 20% off your ENTIRE order when you spend $15.99 or more!


SO-November is sort of a dreary month and I thought it would be nice to do a bright & fun tutorial. Nice change from the creepy & spooky nails that Halloween brings. A pretty, flowery manicure is perfect to liven things up :) The colors are pretty much up to you! You can just copy the steps but change things up to match any occasion or outfit. Formal dance, Birthday Party, or even a wedding! Here is the look- Cute, right?












Here are the steps-

-Start by using the brush of your favorite Migi Nail color to paint a solid background on each nail. Let the polish dry for 5-10 minutes before you start your design!


-Next, use a second color and draw 2-3 dots on your nails using the designer tip.


-Using a third color, draw 5-6 slightly larger dots around the ones you made in the previous step. These will be the petals of the flowers. You can make them round, as shown in the photo, or pointed by moving the tip in an outward direction when applying the polish.


-And finally, using a fourth color and the designer tip, create a few scattered leaves around each flower. Voila! Cute, right? I also recommend using a clear top coat to seal in your design. Make sure the polish is dry before applying the top coat, and let it dry when you are completely finished so your hard work doesn't chip or smudge!!

Halloween Nail Design!


Last week, I challenged our Facebook page fans & subscribers to send in any Halloween themed nail design using their Migi nail art. I have many greats submissions both emailed in and posted on FB- It was a tough choice but this is the one I liked the most!

Thanks to Dina for this winning design! The Glitter Gold solid background really makes those Jack-o-Lanterns pop! I love the different expression on each pumpkin, too :)

To get this look: Begin with using the brush to paint a solid coat of Glitter Gold on each nail. Let it dry! Then, take any shade of green (this dark shade looks great!) and, using the brush end again, paint a French Manicure style tip on the end of each nail. After that dries, use the designer tip end of your orange matte Migi Nail Art and draw circles on each nail right on top of the green French tip- this is the pumpkin!

After the pumpkins dry, again take the green used for the tip and with the designer tip this time, draw a stem and some curly vines on top on each pumpkin. You can even make it look like they are all attached by making the vines go all the way to the edge of your nail, and "connecting" on the adjacent nail! Finally, take a black Migi Nail Art pen and draw spooky or smiley faces on each pumpkin with the designer tip. You are done! Perfect pumpkin-y nails, just in time for Halloween! Be sure to finish off the design with a top coat of clear polish to make all your hard work last :)

Thanks so much to Dina for sending in this photo!

Update & Possible Upcoming Contest!

Hi everyone- Good morning! Well, it's Friday and I hope everyone had a good week =)

Just an update- Our Glow coupon code has officially expired =( But you are in luck! The SPOOKY code is still valid until November 7th. That code will get you 20% off your ENTIRE order total with purchase of at least $15.99.

I have been in contact with a few bloggers who will be reviewing our Migi Nail Art- and I am super excited! I will be linking to the reviews when they are up. I love when nail guru's try out our products and love them- it's just proof that Migi Nail Art really is a high end product that competes with household name brands. So, I will let you all know when the reviews start rolling in!

Anyways, today on our Facebook I am going to be running a Friday Challenge. I will post details over there- the best design I receive by 4 EST today will be featured on our blog! Of course, you guys can enter too... just email websupport@selectmarketing.us a photo of your nail design.

Design- Today's theme is of course... Halloween! I won't limit the design... Halloween candy, Halloween colors, Halloween decorations.. just something that fits in with the spirit of end-of-October festivities =)

(Make sure your Migi pens are visible in the photo ;) )

Can't wait to see what you send in- Stay tuned to see the entry I choose!


So, to address the mystery behind the post title. I want to have a contest! I have a lot of great announcements and plans coming for this blog.. and it's just a shame to have less than 100 followers! So- I am promising to have a contest when my numbers reach 150. That's not a whole lot, but it's a good milestone! So, tell your friends. Tweet about my blog, tell your Facebook friends, or give us a shout out on YOUR blog. I will have a contest for everyone when my followers reach that number. But I want to keep it growing! I will have a contest for 300, 500, 1,000... and on and on! I can reward you for passing this blog on to more readers ;)

Sound like fun? Want to win some nail art? Pass it on!

Thanks!

Halloween Design!


Wooo! Yet another amazing design sent in from our Migi Nail Art Facebook page. Our friend Kellie posted this a few days ago, and I knew it was worthy of a blog tutorial post =)

Simple and spooky. Black and white nails that will go with any outfit or costume! My favorite feature of this design is that the ghosts are smiling!

To get this look- Use your Migi Nail Art to paint a solid black background. Let it dry- Take a white nail polish pen and use the designer tip to create tear drop shapes- 1-3 depending on your nail size. Then, make arms coming out from both sides. When that has dried, again take your black and use the tip to make ghost faces. You can mimic this designs with wide eyes and smiles, or change up the expression and make something more scary! This design would work with any color combinations. Purple background with yellow ghosts, navy ghosts on a pink background, anything! We also have a great new item- Glow in the Dark pens for only 7.99. This look would be upgraded by going over the ghosts with Glow polish. It goes on clear, and glows bright when the lights are out! Perfect for Trick-or-Treating or a Halloween gathering.

Want your nail design featured on our blog? Send photos to websupport@selectmarketing.us.

Spooktacular Nail Art!


Our Facebook friend Kellie submitted this awesome nail design, just in time for Halloween! Personally, I try to stay as far away from these creepy crawlies as possible... but I am so in love with this spider design- I had to share!

To get this look, paint your nails a solid orange with the brush end of your Migi Nail Art. Use your black designer tip to paint the webs in the corner of your nails. Then, choose any colors you would like to make the spiders!

Use the designer tip to make circles for the bodies, and 4 lines on each side for the legs.

This is a great design for children and adults! Remember, you still have time to order our Halloween Kit in time for October 31st! Enter code "SPOOKY" when checking out and save 20% off your whole order! Offer ends November 7th.
