Nude Glitter
Hi everyone, Tuesday brings a nude look. I wanted something fresh and clean. If you know me, then you know I'm into everything bold and vibrant, lots of color so this is very tame for me and way off track, but like I said I wanted fresh and clean. This Sally Hansen was sheer, sheer, sheer. I used 3 coats and why I keep adding glitter to my nails idk, because it's a pain to get off! Anyway, I hope you all have a great day :D P.S. The pic on the left side bar is me and my baby boy. Isn't he handsome. Sorry ladies he's married! hehe :D

My 1st Give Away!
Hi everyone, It's Monday! Yesterday, I told you all I was going polish shopping. Well, I boy did I shop! I couldn't resist $1 lipsticks! I came out with like 15 lipsticks and 12 polishes along with 2 Sally Hansen polish sets! Quite a steal since everything was under $1.20 except for the sets which were $4.60! As my title says I'm doing my very 1st give away! I'm soooo excited! One of my followers will be getting a Sally Hansen set of six polishes and their choice of 3 lipsticks! The give away will be done in a few weeks. The pic of the set is posted followed by the names. The set has nudes to pink to blue! GORGEOUS! This pic does them no justice, but on the bright side my new cam will be here soon. Good luck :D I hope everyone has a great start to the week!

Red Carpet
Hi everyone :D It's Sunday and that means it's football all day :/ On the bright side my honey is giving me his card so I can get some polish! WHOOP WHOOP! Today has been a dreary rainy day, I needed some color for my mani. I chose red, and OMG Sally Hansen's Red Carpet is the bomb! This is a great color to use at Christmas time. It's so buttery and creamy and a breeze to apply. It has a red sparkly shimmer to it. I used 2 coats, but should've used 3. I just love love love the color! Ok, now I'm off to polish shop! Have a great day :D The first pic is HDR and the second is with a flash.

Top Coat Comparisons
Hi everyone :D It's Saturday! Today I don't have a lot of time to do a mani so, I thought I'd do a quick comparison of the top coats I use. Have a great day!
Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Anti-Chip Top Coat: My #1 choice. The formula is thick and easy to apply, the brush is kinda straight. Nothing special there, but the dry time is awesome. I LOVE THIS!
Rush 60 Second High Speed Top Coat: My #2 choice. The formula is very thin and needs very little on the brush, the brush also straight, but it's long and I like that. The dry time is awesome too. It's my #2 choice
because the formula is a little too thin.
Seche Ultra-V: My #3 choice. The formula is not too thick not too thin. The brush is also straight. The dry time is great too. This is my #3 choice because the bottle is black and I can't tell how much is in the bottle.
Now, about my Yellow Stopper experiment: I did see a difference in the color of my nails the four days I used it, but it looked caked on in the space between the polish and my cuticles. Almost like I applied too much, when in fact it was very thin. I don't think I'll be using it again, but who knows.

John Legend
Hi everyone, It's Friday! Tonight my honey and I are having movie night. We're watching My Sister's Keeper. I know it's kinda sad, but it's a moving story. Today's mani is motivated by John Legend, I was listening to 'Platinum and Gold' and this mani was created :D I used to have the CD but someone stole it :/ Anyway, I wanted some bling bling! It turned out exactly like I pictured in my head :D It totally rocks! I could've done just a gold and layered it with silver glitter polish and be done, but I thought that would've been too sharp. I wanted something soft so I sponged. Great job me! Hehe...Have great Friday :D
I'm putting 2 pics because I couldn't decide.

Chanel
Hi everyone! Sorry for the late post. I've had a busy day. Today's mani was fast and simple but so elegant. Black and gold is always elegant and Chanel-ish. The gold is a Savvy brand. Nothing great about this brand. I think it'll have to be an awesome color for me to buy again. I could have gotten by with one coat, but out of habit I did two. The dry time isn't so great, even with the fast dry top coat. Two hours later when I showered the polish softened and dented :/ I'm not really into black so you'll see those two names a lot. o_O I have great news! My new camera will be here sometime next week! WHOOP WHOOP! Have a great evening :D

Pink Wednesday
Hi everyone, It's pink Wednesday. Today I played with my konad plates (m61). I'm really nervous about showing this mani, but I'm gonna anyway O_O I think it turned out pretty good for my first time actually doing my whole finger. I learned several things 1. Be fast, very fast! 2. Be patient. 3. Add top coat in one application to avoid runs 4. Have fun :D What I like about this design is it's forgiving. What I mean is, if you don't get all the design on your finger you can go back and stamp where you have the bald spot. But, be careful. Man oh man taking yesterday's polish off was a total pain! It really stained my fingers! Ugh, I was like really! It took me forever to get the stain off and my fingers still look greenish :/ So please excuse my stained fingers :) Ok, everyone have a great hump day! P.S. The pic on the left side bar is me and my mom. Isn't she beautiful :):):):)
