Who Inspires Me Most

There are a lot of things that inspire me. But, before I got to the point where I am now, people were my inspirations. I am at a point now where I can look at something and put together a nail design in my head based on colors, patterns, whatever. But before that, I used some very talented women on YouTube as my inspiration. If you are ever bored, have extra time, etc., you NEED to look them up. LOVE4NAILS, SimpleLittlePleasures, cutepolish and best of all, Robin Moses at robinmosesnailart.

Now, let me just say, Robin Moses's nail art is some of the most beautiful, most mind blowing amazing work I have ever seen. She can make it look like there is an actual person or an actual Picasso on your damn hand. She has amazing talent and has such a wide variety of tutorials for you to look through that you are almost guaranteed to find something. I would go as far as saying that I guarantee that there is something for everyone on her channel. Go check her out you wont be disappointed. I hope I can get to be half the artist that she is! God bless that woman and her magic hands! She uses not just nail polish, but acrylic paint, glitters and pigments that are normally used for make up and foils too! Simply mind blowing.

Confessions of a Nail Junkie...

Hi, I'm Vikki. First off, let me start my intro by saying that I am in NO way shape or form a licensed nail tech, NOR am i sponsored by anyone. Everything that I know and do is all from being self taught by either trial and error or the internet, mainly YouTube. And the products that I use are ones that I have bought with MY OWN money. This blog will be dedicated to all things nail art related and of course some rants here and there too about whatever happened to be on my mind that day.

Now, on to more about myself. I am a 19 year old multi racial woman born and raised in Miami Florida (shout out to the 305 :D) but now I live in Chattanooga Tennessee which is....quite..different to say the least. I love to draw and paint and recently was inspired to start blogging about my painting and nail stuff by some of the people I follow on YouTube. I also have my own YouTube channel and will be uploading some of my own tutorials on there shortly. But for now, I'm starting out with just this blog. I will be uploading pictures and what not on here and then my tutorials on my YouTube channel http://www.youtube.com/user/ViktoriusME(<----there's the link to it). I also have a Facebook but I dont really have anything on there nail related yet... Well no let me correct myself, I have some pics uploaded but that is all that is there.

I enjoy doing nails very much and hopefully will become a certified nail tech one day. I update my twitter more often than I do my Facebook about my nail stuff http://twitter.com/#!/viktoriusME so go ahead and follow me there if you would like ;)

Thank you for taking the time to read this and be sure to keep checking back here or on my channel to see my new stuff :)
I havent uploaded any videos yet but I will tweet and update the blog when I do!
