When she was 12 Shriner's Hospital of Portland gave her a Life saving

surgery that corrected a 74 degree curve.

This is were the name comes in.

Above the Curve and spine logo is to live above the curve of scoliosis.

This is the Newest Collection out By Above the Curve 

Summer Destinations 2014

This Collection can be purchased here- AboveTheCurve Store Link

These 4 polishes dry with a Matte Finish.

You can always add a Glossy Top Coat to make them shiny.

This is an outdoor shot.

I used 3 thin coats of Myrtle Beach and Coney Island .

3? you ask.. Well I don't having VNL (Visible Nail Line)

and when I held the polish bottle in my hand  I saw a line. 

2 coats has great coverage. 

Did I mention how this polish dries in Record Time?

It really does. It dries faster than any polish I have,

including Seche Vite.

This is with a Top Coat and indoors.

I used 3 coats of Boardwalk (Blue)

and 4 coats of Venice Beach.

This Polish goes on Glossy but Dries Matte.

I used MJ XXIV  by MyOnline Shop for art.

MJ Plate Store

I wanted to have fun and mix some colors up.

I use Venice Beach,Coney Island and Boardwalk.

I used Wet`N`Wild Matte Polish to Matte my Black Nails.

M42 is what I used for art.

I just love how these polishes compliment one another.

I wanted to try water marbling with these.

It wasn't a huge success at first. 

These polishes dry super fast already and when I tried to create a design in the water 

I was only making a mess. So I hurried up and dipped one finger and

and got as much as I could on it.

I used Pueen Encore Set SE O4 B

Pueen Encore Set

As a Stamper I just had to try.

They all do stamp, but I would recommend over light color bases only.

I wanted to show that even if your not a stamper these

polishes work great as Art of their own. I left the center blank so you can

visualize what you would for art. Would you add a straight Black line?

Or add some Rhinestones for some Bling-Bling action?

Dots would also look great going down the center of this nail as well.

The possibles are endless. Be creative and go wild.

Here I painted the nail  2 coats of White and add a Matte finish.

I then used a straw to make the splatter design.

I have had so much fun with this collection.

They apply so easily and dry in record time.

Removal was not bad either.

I would defiantly recommend this collection .

Graffiti Fun

Hello Nail Surfers

Welcome to My Beach

Tonight I'll be sharing my Graffiti Mani.

I've been down with Sinus issues lately.

I will be doing a Video review on the products that I used for this Mani.

But first I need to get my voice back so you can hear me :)

SURFS UP

 I originally had these with a gloss, but there was far to much glare.

I used 2 coats of  Funky Fingers Black

and only 1 thin coat of Funky Fingers White 

on my middle and ring finger.

I used  "Nail Sticker" aka Water Decals from  Born Pretty Store .

Water Decal Link

I also added some textured metal studs also from Born Pretty Store

 Textured Metal Stud Link

This particular product  can be a bit confusing.

The package says Nail Sticker

and the directions say nothing about water or this being a decal.

I took a rough measurement of my two fingers and cut the necessary amount.

I dropped 1 at a time in the water. (I just used a shallow glass bowl)

after about 5-10 seconds I used tweezers and grabbed it out.

The Image will slid right of the paper with ease.

 (if yours does not, then put it back into the water for a little bit longer)  

This Decal is truly amazing. That white background you see is part of the decal.

I place the decal over over my 1 thin coat of white polish (as a Base) .

Now at this point I was a little worried..

 The image I cut  was a tad longer and wider than my nail.

I really was not sure how to approach this without messing up my Mani or nails.

There was no way I was going in with scissors to trim things up.

So I  used  my clean up brush and Acetone to tackle this one.

And WOW! I was amazed. It cleaned up perfectly.

I even took this review to the next level.

I  even applied Matte Polish right over the decal.

And again I was amazed by the results.

No smudging/smearing or dragging of image.

This Water Decal  took a beating and abuse and nothing could break it.

I Highly recommend these.

Candy Hearts

Hello Nail Surfs

Welcome to My Beach

I just did a new Mani and it turned out pretty cute.

SURFS UP....

I had fun photographing this Mani.

I used MyOnline Shop Plates

MJ 5 and MJ 6

I love how these candy hearts have a 3D affect.

The accent finger image also comes in reverse. 

This is before any finish coat on.

Can you believe I used all acrylic paints and

a dotting tool to make my base coat.

I used Mash Nails Black stamping polish.

The candy just came to life once I Matte Finished them.

Have you started Valentine Nails yet?

These Holidays come and go so fast.

Thank You for surfing My Wave.

I hope you enjoyed your visit at My Beach.

Tropical Scent

Hello Nail Surfers

Welcome to My Beach

I have received a bunch of goodies from 

Mash Nails to try out.

Today I was playing with the 6 pcs Scented polishes.

And WOW! They are scented. Even after 2 top coats and a Matte finish

I can still smell them. I have Banana & Fruit Punch on now.

I also discovered a few other things about these polishes. :)

SURFS UP.... 

I used Mash 43 & 41

2 coats of each color.

The brushes are truly amazing. It glides on so nicely.

The bottles are 0.16fl oz/5ml

And they are stamp-able! They do "not" work well with the lint

roller trick tho. I tried already.

The Matte Nail polish works GREAT!

When you want to Matte your art, you must first topcoat

to prevent smearing. 

I am really pleased how these turned out.

And amazed that they still are scented after all the topcoats I've add.

Would you wear scented nail polish? 

Do you prefer a shiny top coat or a Matte finish?

I have more colors to try and more Mani's I can't wait 

to start on.. I have this one idea that I must do.I just hope

it turns out as great on my nails as it does when I tested it.

For all of the products I used check out Mash Nails

They sometimes even run a coupon code too :) 

Thank you for surfing my wave.

I hope you enjoyed your visit at My Beach.

Coach Anyone?

Hello Nail Surfers

MyOnline Shop's Special Stamping Polish Silver 

Matted Finish with MJ 4

I used Nail Foils of the Blue and MJ 4 plate

Have you ever tried her stamping polishes?

They work GREAT!.. I am putting these polishes to the test.

We saw they stamp and show over a black base already, so I wanted

to see them over Nail Foils now. And hey... Did you know you can

Matte top coat over Nail Foils? You can :)

I had no issues with any of the polishes smearing with top coats either.

Another Plus.
