• Valentine's Day Mani

    This is the manicure I wore for Valentine's Day! I think the pink is OPI You're Such a Kabuki Queen but I honestly can't remember. I stamped using an Avon Mirror Shine polish and Konad Special Polish in white. This was just before I took it off, so excuse the tipwear! I added a coat of Essie Matte...
  • OPI Russian Navy & Essie Matte About You

    This was one of my favorite manicures! And I know there is a matte version of this polish available and I would love to get it, but this was more accessible. This was actually inspired by a picture I saw on Pinterest - I am obsessed with that site! If you're on and would like to follow me, I am...
  • Holo zebra!

    Here is attempt #2 with the Konad. Using China Glaze's OMG and Konad black special polish and plate M57 again (This is my favorite plate, I'm sure I'm going to get a lot of use out of it and I highly recommend it!) This picture is taken after 3 days wear and fussing so there are quite a few chips...
  • Nail Haul and a NOTD :)

    I've been slacking lately, sorry for the lack of posts! I received this haul of beauties the other day from a blog sale! Left to right: China Glaze DV8, OPI DS Sapphire, OPI DS Signature, China Glaze How About A Tumble and Nubar Reclaim Yep. More holos. Can't help it, they're just so gorgeous! I...
  • Finger Paints Asylum & OPI Road House Blues

    Hello lovelies! I have not forgotten you, but I have been house sitting and didn't have wireless to work from my laptop! But I still photographed each mani (and will post each in its own post). Here is the first, which is Finger Paints Asylum, my favorite flakie from their new Effects collection...
  • Nails Inc Baker St with Max Factor Fantasy Fire

    I loved loved loved this manicure! The Nails Inc is BEAUTIFUL! Totally unique in my collection and definitely worth grabbing if you can still find it. Max Factor Fantasy Fire is the UK brand "dupe" of Clarins 230.While it is similar I definitely don't think it's a dupe. The shimmer is much...

Christmas mani extravaganza!

0



My Current mani: Essie's Limited Addiction, the holly is Color Club Rule Breaker and the gems are just little rhinestones from eBay. Simple but cute. One of the girls I work with said this is a "very grown up colour" compared to what I usually wear. That comment made me giggle!

Now THIS screams Christmas!

Isn't it beautiful?




This is China Glaze's Ruby Pumps and Wet N' Wild Prancer.

Slightly less Christmasy but it fits

0

So this isn't a super Christmas-y NOTD but it's my blog, dammit! Kidding! This one is the beautiful Original Holographic version of OPI's My Private Jet, SO amazing. Accent finger is Nicole by OPI Sprinkle of Twinkle (I always calls this polish Sprinkle of Tinkle... just me?) This is a quickie manicure that I wore for a Ozzy Osbourne concert :)



Sorry the pic isn't the greatest!

Snowy nails with Frosty

0

This is two coats of China Glaze Frosty over 2 coats of China Glaze Snow. I never really cared for white polishes but these got such great reviews that I hunted them down (ended up having to order from head2toe). I must say though that I am so glad I did! They're both lovely polishes and will be making an appearace again before Christmas, I'm sure!




The second picture shows off the shimmer best!

Day 4: A revisit!

I didn't have time to do a whole new manicure today, so I simply added more snowflakes to the manicure I had on:


I added Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear glitter in Disco Ball. Looks like falling snow!

Three French Hens

While this manicure is beautiful, unfortutely I did not manage to get a great picture of it. This got a lot of compliments though and it was truly lovely!



I used Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in Indigo as the base coat and the snowflakes were done using Nicole by OPI Positive Energy (I use this a lot for stamping, it's fantastic) and Konad White. Give it a try!

This is China Glaze's Mrs. Claus over Essie's Limited Addiction. This looked amazing!



Nothing like Ruby Pumps for sure. It is what I wanted Mrs. Claus to be.
