Dream on

Hello and happy Tuesday! Boy am I beat today. We had overnight inventory at work lastnight and it just about killed me! Today I have a super fun mani. I got the idea from Chloe's nails. She does the most wonderful tape manis and if you haven't checked her out you should defanitley give her a follow! I used china glaze liquid leather as the base, essence holographic top coat layered on top, then taped off lines in the middle with sinful colors dream on, all topped with seche vite top coat. I got so many compliments on this and I loved wearing it! I hope all is well with everyone and don't forget!

Once I hit 50 followers ill be doing a sweet giveaway! Until next time!

Haute Red

Hello! And happy Sunday!! It was beautiful today, nice cool weather this year for Arizona. Today I have for you, Orly Haute Red. I love this color, I'm not a huge red fan, but this was nearly perfect. In the bottle it defanitley looks like a jelly but when I applied it it is a creme. Perfect in just 2 coats and no cuticle flooding! Now that's what I'm talking about! Just for fun I added matte polka dots with essence matte top coat. I hope you enjoy, haul posts to come and guess what? When I hit 50 followers I have a giveaway planned! Thank you to everyone who reads this, it means a great deal to me! Until next time!

Glitter-fest

Hello lovely bloggers!

It seems I have gotten the glitter bug, each time I do a nail change I always reach for the glitter and have to remember the amount of time it will take for remover, but this time I just had to go glitter. I was at walgreens the other day and picked up a few of the Sally Hansen Gem Crush. I chose Lady Luck as the first runner up, a beautiful fuschia jelly base glitter with holographic hex glitters. Application was a breeze, I'm a big fan of their brushes. The formula is so freaking squishy I couldn't stop looking at my hands when I had it on. I hope you enjoy this color as much as I do! What's your favorite glitter? Until next time!

Violet vixen

Woohoo! I've been in a wonderful mood the past couple of days, but today I have a very special color for you. Today I chose Violet Vixen which is part of the new Loreal Riches collection. It's a beautiful purple creme with blue undertones so its similar to a blurple! Application was super easy and the brush was perfect. Shown is two coats with a coat of seche vite. I wore this color for 3 days with NO signs of tip wear! I was so impressed I bought 3 other colors! If you have any suggestion on a really awesome mani let me know! I'm always looking for new ideas! Until next time!

Light as air

Happy hump day!

The week seems like its dragging, that's what I get for working almost 12 hours everday! I hope everyone is doing well and I'm keeping this post a little short today. Today I have for you a simple nail art mani I did, I busted out the dotting tool! I used sally Hansen smooth and perfect: air. I love these and found them on sale. I used air which is a beautiful light blue creme. 3 coats shown. On my ring finger I used a no name cosmetic arts polish I found at Ross. Its a beautiful bronze with gold shimmer. I love this. I used the dotting tool to make coordinating polka dots:) I got lots of compliments on this and am excited to show you! Hope you enjoy and until next time!
