Nail-Aween Challenge- Day 2: Matte Doticure

Hello Everyone! I'm feeling a little better today, I had a doctor's apt. today and I'm 32 weeks and measuring 34, I plan on having a big baby apparently ;)Today's manicure definitely had something to do with it as well! I was excited about today, I got to pull out my matte topcoat;)

I used several different polishes for this: China Glaze- Flying dragon as the base, a beautiful neon purple with loads and loads of blue and purple microshimmer. For the dots I used, Sinful Colors- Innocent (lime green), Zoya- Paz (neon orange), and Sinful Colors- Black on Black (black) and I added a black rhinestone to the top:)

Flying dragon had wonderful formula especially for a matte polish, not streaky at all and dry time was excellent!
And just for fun I decided to add topcoat pictures as well.

365 Days of Color- Hocus Pocus Collection Swatches

Hello my pretties! I'm so happy to be sharing this post with you, I finally got around to swatching the entire 365 days of color Hocus Pocus Collection for you! Warning: This will be extremely picture heavy! And away we go!

First in line is I Smell...Children. A superb black jelly base with LOADS of purple micro shimmer, and purple hex glitters. The purple glitters in this have a certain glow that I just can't describe. Two coats with topcoat.

Next in line is Come Little Children. A clear base with lots of tiny red and black hex glitters, I loved this. No digging for glitters, extremely easy dry time as well. This is one coat of Come Little Children, over two coats of an unnamed Bonita jelly with topcoat.

Black Flame Candle, oh how I love thee. This polish was more than gorgeous, and my pictures were even able to pick up the silver shimmer loaded in the black jelly base. This is two coats with topcoat.

Then we have I Put a Spell On You. A clear base with loads of glitter and black hexes, the green hexes came in two sizes! This was so easy to apply, for a glitter, superb dry time. This is two coats of I Put a Spell On You over Sinful Colors HD nails, with topcoat.

And last but not least, Boouk! Oh beautiful Boouk, this was my most favorite of the bunch. Nude jelly base full of bronze, gold and brown glitters. I layered Boouk! over two coats of China Glaze Fast Track- with topcoat.

There you have it ladies and gents! Which is your favorite of the collection? I loved every single one but Boouk! was at the top of my lemming list.

Until next time!

Pink Wednesday!

Hello and Happy Humpday! Today is Pink Wednesday! I'm really excited to be dedicating mani's every Wednesday, I'm slowly growing as a blogger, and with all of the love and feedback everyone has given me thus far, and the people I've met give me that much more confidence to keep doing what I love.

I really wanted to try out all of the vintage rose tutorials I have been seeing, on the internet and on youtube, so I thought it was delicate enough to go with today's nails. For my accent finger, I used two coats of Wet n' Wild I need a Refresh-Mint, a teal-y mint color. For the flowers, I used my dotting tools and brushes, and Sally Hansen Bubblegum Pink, and China Glaze- Fuschia Fanatic. I loved the combination of colors, and thought they went well together, someone asked me if it was leopard print so I probably should have added leaves, but I loved it anyways.

For the rest of the mani I used one coat of Sally Hansen Bubble gum pink, and two coats of The Nail Junkie- Flamingo.
Let me tell you a little bit about Flamingo. Aleta has some of the most unique polishes I have seen in her shop. I've raved about Fish, which you can see here. Flamingo is a light pink shimmer base, with tons of white hex glitters, and translucent hex glitters all throughout. Wearing this I can't stop looking down at my nails as I type. Flamingo is such a perfect pink for the occasion. You can purchase any of The Nail Junkie polishes here. She has up her new Halloween Collection, which I can't wait to get my hands on a few of these!

Nail-Aween Challenge: Day 1- Water Marble- Fail

Direct Sunlight

Alright, Alright, I know what yáll are thinking, Sammi, This is not watermarbeling. Well, you see, I really DID try to do watermarbeling. Over 16 polishes were tried, and miserably failed, and 2 1/2 hours of my time, GONE. I tried everything, different types of water, different finishes, different ways of dropping the polish in the water, nothing was working. If anyone has any tips on this please feel free to let me know, I would love to do watermarbeling but I got so frustrated with it.
So I turned to my bundle monster plate, BM320 which thankfully has a faux marble stamp on it.

Direct Sunlight

The polishes I used for my base is China Glaze- Riveting, this was the first time I used this polish and it was absolutely beautiful. Riveting is a bright orange with golden shimmer shining through it. Definitely a must have for fall. For the stamp I used Finger Paints- Black Expressionism, which I've said before is AWESOME to stamp with. Then I used my dotting tool to add dots randomly with China Glaze- Solar Power.

Indirect Sunlight

I'm taking part in two different nail challenges for October so be prepared to see lots of Halloween inspired manicures!<3

Check out all the other bloggers participating in this challenge, I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with!

Halloween Nail Art Challenge: Day 1- Pumpkin

Hello Lovelies! Can you believe it's October already? I am so excited, this is when it finally starts to cool down in Arizona. I decided to enter into two different nail art challenges this month, also showcasing pink manis every Wednesday for Breast Cancer awareness! You'll also see my blog went pink for October, this will be a busy month for glitznglammer and I can't WAIT!

I have pumpkin tips instead of the typical Jack O'Lantern! I took this idea from Rebecca likes nail's with her apple tips, I loved it so much, I turned it into pumpkins instead!
For this I used an unnamed Bonita in orange, I got this as a set at Ross for only $4.99 so it was totally worth it! I used different nail art brushes from my mash brush set to get into detail. I used another unnamed Bonita in yellow, China Glaze- Holly Day, and OPI Gargantuan green grape for the vine, I can't think of the brown off of the top of my head I used to make the "stem"

I'm so excited to be in these challenges, it will really give me a chance to get creative! Are you joined in any challenges this month?

I hope you enjoy! Until Next Time!
