Neon Dots!

Hello All,

Today I have another doticure for you! I hope you aren't tired of them yet, for they are quickly becoming my favorite type of nail art! Today I have for you, a neon dot manicure!

YAY! Who doesn't love neons? And this is a perfect way to rock some neons without having all of your nails Day Glo Orange or Bright Yellow. You could do this even as an accent nail, and still be on trend!

So I started this mani off with three coats of Icing's Dance in the Moonlight, but it was super sheer (though it did have a surprise for me later) so I put on one coat of Essie's Marshmallow over it, to get the white I wanted.

After that dried, I took Sinful's Summer Peach, (which by the way, is not peach it's a bright day glow orange) and Neon Melon (which is highlighter yellow) and China Glaze's Love's a Beach, I'm with the Lifeguard (which is the greatest neon green polish.. EVER) and Splish Splash (Which isn't a neon blue, but at least it is bright) and dotted them on my nails.

What do you all think?

This Picture I took out in the sun.. Look how insanely bright this was!

 
And remember the little surprise I said Dance in the moonlight had for me?? It GLOWED IN THE DARK!! It freaked me out when I turned off the lights and suddenly my nails were glowing!!! it didn't say anywhere on the bottle, but there it was.. Glowing! It had a super good glow as well! I didn't get any pictures of it though :( Next time!

Have a good day!!

Try it On Tuesday!

 

Hello All! Welcome to my first Try It on Tuesday! Several bloggers and I got together to make a dedicated day to try out your untried's. I don't know about you, but I have several nail polishes that are just sitting on the top of my dresser, just waiting for me to try them on. This is the perfect excuse to do just that! 

Today I have for you, two untrieds. I have Essence: A night in Soho, and an accent nail of China Glaze's Love's a Beach. These two colors go together beautifully, and I really had wished my camera would have picked up how bright Love's a Beach was. It was super neon and so gorgeous! 

The below pictures are 3 coats of each, with one coat of Poshe Top Coat. Enjoy :)

Another Doticure!

First of all.. I have to say.. Holy Cow Guys!!! 500 followers??? You are super awesome! After this giveaway end, I will have to have another to celebrate that milestone!! :D

So today I have a pretty special mani to show you! It's a doticure that was inspired by my... cell phone case of all things!

I guess it was inevitable! I stare at that thing all the time, and eventually I knew I had to at least try and  copy a little bit of style and the colors of my case!

So onto the colors, and what I did, and I will show you a picture of the case later!

I used two coats of Sinful's Snow Me White, and then used a coat of Seche Vite, (which I had to struggle with to get on, it's getting to it's "thick stage) and waited for that to dry. After that, I took tape and taped off half my nails, and used Sinful Black on Black.

After that dried, I took out my dotting tools, and used Finger Paints Blue Raspberry Taffy for the blue Dots and China Glaze's Wicked Style for the Pink dots!

After that dried, I put on another coat of Seche Vite and it bubbled!! Gah!! But, at least it looked good enough to take pictures!

And here is the inspiration for this mani! My lovely Cell Phone case! Pretty isn't it??

What do you think? Do you think I did a good job capturing it on my nails??

Have a Great Day!

Color Block!

Hey all! I hope you had a great weekend? I did! It's been one of the better weekends I have had in awhile! :D
I decided to try a color block again, and this time it turned out pretty much perfect! And, it's mostly blue! I am happiest when my nails are blue! :D

For this mani I panted on two coats of Sinful's Sweet Dreams, which is an amazing Blue Shimmery polish! Then I added a coat of Seche Vite and waited for that all to dry, and then I taped off my nails and added China Glaze's Dorothy Who, a fantastic blue glitter!  After that dried, I added another coat of Seche Vite, and then taped them off again, and Added Sinful's Black on Black for the last bit of it.

And ended up with this!

 

 
 

 



I hope you all have an amazing day!!! :D

Thanks for reading!! :D

Fantasy Fire!

Hello!

Happy Friday All! I hope you all had a good week? I am fully looking forward to the weekend! I might make an excursion up to Ulta, as well as Icing (to get things for a swap.)

Today, I have a fun mani for you. This is three coats of China Glaze's Awakening, with two coats of Max Factor's Fantasy Fire over it!! I was a little Meh over Fantasy Fire when I got it on.. I stared at my nails and was all.. "Where is this sparkle people keep talking about?"

And then I went outside! We had a rare day of sunshine around here, and Bam! My nails came to life in the sun! Which is why these pictures are all in the sun! The red and gold shimmer came to life, and at certain angles, there was a green-blue shimmer! I seriously couldn't stop staring at my nails!

 

I hope you all have a great weekend!! :D 

St Patrick's Day mani!!

Happy St. Patricks Day Everyone!!

Here is my St. Patricks Day.. Skittle!! Woo!! :D

For this I used, 2 coats of Nubar Reclaim on my Thumb, then 4 Coats of Zoya's Ivanka on my Pointer Finger, 4 Coats of SaGreena the Teenage Witch, on my middle finger. 4 coats of China Glaze Paper Chasing, on my ring finger and 2 Coats of Sally Hansen's Jade Jump on my Pinky!! Woo! That is many nail polishes but I am not done! After all that was done.. I put on two coats of Zoya's Maisie, and then mattified all my nails!

And here I have a little Friend to help me out with my Pictures!! :D

And then.. since I was slightly bored and feeling creative.. I did my.. First ever Nail Art!!!!!

Yup, It's a Pot of Gold! I freehanded it using an orange stick and a bobby pin! Not bad eh? I like it! I'm super proud of it too!!

I used Sinful Black on Black and Snow me White, for the pot and the clouds. Orly's Glitz and Glamour for the gold.. 

I'm so proud!!

What do you all think??

The Hunger Games have arrived!

Well, they have in my house at least.. the nail polishes that is! :D To be honest I have never read the books.. they seem a little.. violent to me!
I ordered them from Sally Beauty last week, and they got in last night!! I am so excited! Here is what came in my package!

From Left to Right: Orly's Sweet Tart,(a seriously beautiful Jelly, yes I know it's not a hunger game polish.. I needed an extra polish to bump me up for a discount!) China Glaze: Riveting, Harvest Moon, Luxe and Lush, Agro and Stone Cold!  And my lovely napkin that I use as the background for my pictures! :D hehe.

So once I got the package, I took my other nail polish off, and put one of each color on each of my fingers to try and decide what colors I should paint my nails.. With the help of my husband, I decided to go with Riveting, A beautiful Orange Jelly like polish with some amazing Flecks in it. And Stone Cold, the matte of the collection, a black with a silver shimmer.

To me they looked like Fire and ashes!

So.. I used one coat of Stone Cold on my Thumb, Middle Finger and Pinky, and then put a coat of SV over them, seeing as I wanted them shiny for this mani! And then I put three coats of Riveting on my Pointer and Ring Finger.. and then added a coat of SV..

And Tada!!

So Pretty!!! What are your favorite Hunger games polishes??

My Valentines day Mani! :D

Well First off, Happy Valentines Day everyone!! :D I hope you all have an amazing day with either that special someone, or someone that you love! My husband was super sweet and he let me take the day off of work! Now I don't have to deal with angry customers!! YAY!! :D (I work in customer service..it's a pain!)

Anyways.. onto the nails! :D So, there aren't hearts or anything.. But I like how it turned out.. My nails remind me of cupcakes at the moment! hehe :D

So I started with a layer of China Glaze's Ruby Pumps, and then added a layer of Wet N Wild's Hannak Pinktana and Pure Ice's. Oh Baby! After that, I added another layer of Ruby Pumps and Oh Baby!!

You can kinda see the blue shimmer that is flashing across my thumb in the first picture.. I love this layering effect! It's super sparkly, and super deep!

And then for the "clouds" I used Sinful's Snow Me White and Sally Hansen in Lilac! :D

I hope you all have a great day!! And Don't forget to Like My facebook page as well as leave me a little comment or two! Just so I know that people are reading!!

Happy V-Day All!! :D

Much Love!

Blue Friday!!

Hey all!!! It's Blue Friday!! I am so excited about this mani! I LOVE jelly's and I LOVE the color blue.. so what did I do? I made a jelly sandwich!!

I used Revlon's Royal, and in between the layers, China Glaze's Fairy Dust! It looks super pretty in the light, but I don't think I was quite able to catch it on Camera. Anyways, here is the mani!

Pardon the lack of clean-up on my thumb...

Oh, I updated my wish list, and don't forget to like my facebook page, there is a link in the top right hand corner.  And there will be a contest once I reach 50 followers! So.. Be sure to Share Share Share!!! :D
Have an awesome day!

A little bit of everything.

So for this mani.. I had an image in my head.. I wanted to do a half moon mani over some glitter..
And somehow, it didn't quite turn out how I pictured it in my head.. But nothing ever really does!

I used one Coat of Sally Hansen's Gem Crush in Lady Luck, and to be honest, I wasn't too fond of it. I don't think I like such chunky glitters. It just looked like it was a mess on my nails.. and a top coat eater as well! I don't have Gelous yet.. so..
After applying two coats of top coat, I taped off my nails, and added Sinful's What's your name. It's a black that has blue shimmer in it, that is actually really hard to see!
And after I did that... I decided it needed something, so I did a little cloud action, with China Glaze's Ruby Pumps. 

What do you all think??

Oh and a question, Anyone know of some good jelly polishes? I have Revlon Royal, but I would like a few more! Any suggestions? Anything but OPI, I can't really get my hands on those!

Also, I am thinking of doing a giveaway soon, once I have a few more followers.. Any suggestions for what you would like to see?

Have a great day!

a Follow up :D

So, if you couldn't guess from my previous post, I was rooting for the Patriots. But they lost :( Oh well, at least my nails looks good!
I used China Glaze's Icicle, for the base and then just took tape and taped off different sections of my nail, and I used Sally Hansen's Xtreme nail polish in Red Carpet and Blue-it.

I personally think my thumb turned out the best!! :D It was my first time trying this pattern! The next one should be better now that I know what to expect!

I hope you all have a great Monday!! :D

Blue Shield! :D

Sooo, here is what I hope is an original mani.. I haven't traversed that many blogs.. but the ones I have.. I haven't seen this.
I call it.. The Shield!!
During Christmas, I used this design for a "present" but after I was done.. it just looked like a Shield to me.. So, the Shield mani was born! 

For this I used Sally Hansen's Insta Dr in Blue-Away and China Glaze's FrostBite!

Please forgive my pinky nail.. The tape I used was a little thin.. and it broke :(

I hope you all have a great weekend! I am going to attempt to go to Ulta again! We will see how that goes! :D
Also, I have a question to ask of you.. Does anyone know of a good Orange Creme? I need it for a design I have in mind, but the oranges I have are super sheer.. and I need a good opaque orange! Let me know if you know of any.
Thanks!
Munchy :D

Party of Five!

Hey all!
So, last week we had a super Epic Snowstorm (For me anyways, I had never seen that much snow before!) I even got my first Snow Day! And since I had some time on my hands.. I decided to do something bright and cheerful.
This is about oh.. 4-5 coats of China Glaze's Orange Knockout. It's a neon, and its seriously super sheer, but.. after many coats(4-5) I finally got it looking somewhat opaque. Then I added one coat of Wet n Wild's Party of Five Glitters. I loved it!!! And I hope you do too
