CATCHING UP!: Old manis that I never posted!

As you all know, while I was in school I was extremely busy! I did paint my nails and take pictures but I just never posted them! So here are a few throw backs! Keep in mind, I had to keep my nails really short :(

Index, middle, pinky: Wet N Wild Black Creme

Thumb & ring: Chine Glaze Icicle topped with OPI Crown Me Already

Chine Glaze Pink Voltage

Wet N Wild On a Trip w/ Northern Lights and China Glaze Snow Globe on the tips

China Glaze Lemon Fizz striped with Kiss White striper and some nail stickers :)

Hope you enjoyed!!

I'm BAAAAAAAAACK :) + cute Owls :)

HI LADIES!!!!! <3 I have missed you all terribly :( But I will be able to post more finally! I've gotten into the swing of things with work and school and hopefully I will have some extra time to paint my nails (and then remove the polish for class *sigh*) and post for you guys :) I really appreciate all of the comments and support from you guys. Thanks for bearing with me! Okay, this mani is actually from a WHILE ago! The pictures are a little blurry (sorry!) and it's not very neat but this was my first attempt at some owl nail art :D

Hahahaha it's kind of a failure but it looks cute from far away LOL! :)
The beaks are round instead of triangular.. it's looks kinda stupid haha oh well!!

I used:
OPI Pamplona Purple (bodys & spots)
Zoya Heather (light purple bellies)
OPI In My Back Pocket (beaks)
Wet N Wild Black and White Creme (eyes)

I hope you enjoy! I will have some new stuff up soon :) .... with my little stubby nails haha

Flakie Layers

I finally have a new post for you, as promised! This is two coats of Wet N Wild - I Need A Refresh-Mint with Essie - Shine of the Times layered over top! I really like this combo :) I  bought all of the new Finger Paints special effects flakies and have been playing around with them but SOTT is much more dense so I used it for this instead. :) The WNW polish is one of the new ones that recently came out also. I bought all but three on the new display I saw at walgreens! I need to do a comparison of this and some other mint greens, I'm not sure if it's a dupe but for two bucks I won't complain if it is!

what do you think? I hope you are all enjoying the weekend! It's been really nice weather here in NC!

Cost is No Issue ;)

Hello ladies! I am SO sorry for the disappearance lately! The girl I work with has been using all her PTO days so I've had to work a lot more than I usually do. Along with the craziness of the holidays quickly approaching, it has consumed all of my time! Today I have Wet N Wild - Cost is No Issue from the Ice Baby collection.

This is two coats. I also added a coat of INM Northern Lights, a coat of Gelous and topped it off with SV of course :) I hope you enjoy! I LOVE this glitter!! :) SO fun and bright!

xoxo

I know I am SO late on this....

Hey everyone! TGIF!! Okay this is my nails from... LAST Friday/Saturday! Can you believe I took so long to post this!? I started using a new camera and I lost the cable to upload pictures so I had to order a card reader and can finally upload the pics! Anyway! This is what I wore with my costume (I was a witch) for a Halloween party last weekend :)

Please excuse the HUGE chip on my middle finger... these pictures were taken after the party!

This is three coats of China Glaze - Frosty then I stamped an image from plate BM209 with Wet N Wild - Black Creme. Then I topped it off with a spider nail decal and Seche Vite!

Yesterday's Halloween Nails!

Hello everyone! I hope you all enjoyed your Halloween weekend! I know I did! I will do I separate post for the mani I was rocking at the party I went to later this week, but for Halloween I wore this:

This is one coat of OPI - In My Back Pocket, with one coat of the neon orange pumpkin polish that is pictured. Then I stamped\ images from BM224 (ring & thumb) and BM222 (index, middle & pinky) with WNW Black Creme. Of course it was also topped off with a coat of seche vite :) I love this!

Pumpkin Spice

TGIF! I hope everyone had a fabulous week. I got a LOT done this week. I did some polish shopping (of course) and I also ordered a bunch of Christmas presents! I usually order the majority of Christmas presents I buy online because I HATEE the crowded stores around the holidays! I decided to get a head start this year and  it working out great :) On my nails today, I have two coats of Sally Hansen - Pumpkin Spice layered over one coat of Wet N Wild - Black Creme. I loooove this polish... especially the name! Fall is my favorite season and I love pumpkin EVERYTHING. Me and my best friend always go to starbucks and order the pumpkin spice lattes... mmmm <3 This particular polish was basically IMPOSSIBLE to photograph.. which really upsets me!

Mmm... candy corn!

Hello ladies! I had SO much fun doing this mani. I've actually had it on my nails for FIVE days now! Which is definitely a record for me lol. And guess what the best part is!? STILL NO CHIPS!!!! I picked up the China Glaze and Seche Vite set for BCA from Sally's last week (along with Nina Ultra Pro - Glamrock) mostly because I wanted the Seche Vite! I have never used this top coat before and MAN have I been missing out! It's AWESOME! Okay enough of my blabbering.. on to the pictures!

Hoooooly cow.. I didn't realize how crooked my lines were until I uploaded the pictures from my camera haha! Oh well. I did this by hand so you can't expect TOO much from me! :P For this mani I used:

OPI- In My Back Pocket (orange)

Sally Hansen - Mellow Yellow (yellow..duh)

Wet N Wild - French White Creme

Kiss nail art paint - Silver glitter (for the line on my ring finger)

and a Spider sticker from a pack I got at Walgreens! Isn't it cute? :) Here are pictures of the stickers I picked up...

Yes, I picked up two of the same packs... because there weren't multiples of the stickers so I HAD to have a back up! I will probably use these all year hehe :)

Thanks for stopping by! Have an awesome week.

First Halloween mani of the year!!

Hello everyone! I hope you had a good weekend, I know I did! This mani is actually from a few days ago. I broke the nail on my middle finger last week so that's why it's so much shorter!! I have another amazing mani coming up for you tomorrow! :) This is two coats of OPI - In My Back Pocket with one coat of Wet N Wild - Creepy Pumpkin and then I added a little skull that came in a pack of stickers from Walmart. Simple and adorable!

I LOVE HALLOWEEEEEEEEN! :)

I hope you guys have a good Monday. Hopefully it will go by quickly! :)

Lady Muck... such an appropriate color choice for this weather!

Hello everyone!! I'm not sure how the weather has been where you live but it's been cool, cloudy and a little rainy here in the Carolinas! I picked up this polish from Butter London when Ulta had the BOGO Free sale. I absolutely love this color! I don't have anything else like it. I've really been into blues lately and this one did not disappoint! This is a pale grayish blue with subtle silver/white micro shimmer. It's simply gorgeous! It will be great for winter, especially with some snowflakes stamped on top! This is two coats of Lady Muck!

Great application! Went on very very smoothly!

After wearing this for three days (which is a long time for me!) and not wanting to take this polish off I added a coat of Wet N Wild - Hallucinate and then a coat of NYC Starry Silver Glitter. It really adds some pizzaz!

Anddddd then after that I decided to stamp over it with an image from BM21 with Konad special white polish. 

What do you guys think!? Hope you all enjoyed your weekend. :)

Black Magic

Here's a swatch from this past weekend's haul! I have for you today Wet N' Wild Fantasy Makers - Black Magic. It's kind of an odd black color but it's packed with lots of different colored micro glitter. I really like it! And the packaging is SERIOUSLY adorable!! I love Halloween stuff!!

Have you picked up any of the Fantasy Makers stuff?

Happy Monday!

Epic Haul!

Hello ladies :) I hope you are all having a fabulous weekend so far! I have lots of goodies to show you today/tonight!! I got my package from Ulta in the mail yesterday, my package from Urban Decay came in today and I also went back to Ulta and got some more stuff today lol! I actually ordered from UD twice before in the past few weeks while they were having their big sale. One of the items was left out of my order (which was a loose pigment eye shadow that only cost a dollar) so as an apology, they sent me a $20 credit + free shipping! So I stocked up on some more sale items :) In my previous orders I bought 3 cream shadows (Rehab, Midnight Rodeo and Suburbia) and 5 loose pigment shadows (Goddess, Rockstar, Shattered, Asphyxia, and Smog). Plus, some goodies for my little sister for her birthday. <3 Alright, so here's the picture from this weekend's haul!

From Ulta: (with the exception of the Jesse's Girl polish...that was from RiteAid!)

Top L-R: Jesse's Girl-Mermaid's Lagoon, WnW Fantasy Makers- Night Glow, Creepy Pumpkin and Black Magic, & Ulta - Love My Blackberry

Bottom L-R:  Ulta- Celebutante, Diva, Moody Blues, Material Girl (FAV!), Purple Haze, Chic Peek & Envy

Close up (in a different order...? lol)

Chic Peek, Material Girl, Diva, Purple Haze

Celebutante, Moody Blues, Envy

Urban Decay + more ulta:

My fist EOS chapstick in Lemon Drop, UD Loose pigment shadow in Gunmetal, UD cream shadows in Sphynx, Moonshine & Weeds, UD liquid liner in Ecstasy, UD matte shadows (singles) in Chronic and Electric, and Essence XXXL Shine lipgloss in True Love

Gunmetal, Sphynx, Moonshine, Weeds, Chronic, Electric, & Ecstasy.

WHEW! That took forever to list! Basically this haul was awesome and I was very happy with all of my purchases!! :)

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

I Wanna Go

HEY GUYS! I am sooo sorry that I have been MIA for over TWO WEEKS! I have been absolutely SWAMPED with work... it's crazy. The past few weeks have been insane with everyone going on vacation! Okay so anyway, I am back now and I have lots of manis to show you all this weekend! For today's mani, I did a Britney Spears inspired look. In her music video for her song "I Wanna Go" she wears a similar look to this.

Here's a look at her nails in the music video:

and here is MY mani :)

I used Wet N' Wild - Black Creme on my pinky and index, Wet N Wild - French White Creme on my thumb and ring finger (stamped with Black Creme using the zebra image from m57) and Sally Hansen Insta-Dri - Speedy Sunburst. I LOVE it!!! I also love Britney Spears so I definitely love rocking this :)

Happy Thursday!

Orange Leopard

Hello all! I hope you had a great 4th of July weekend! Mine was GREAT! All I did was relax by the beach and the pool :) For today's mani, I used Wet N Wild- Sunny Side Up and Wet N Wild fastdry - 9.0.2.1.Orange stamped with Wet N Wild - Black Creme with the m57 plate and the m78 plate on my ring finger (Plus a small rhinestone for a little bling)! Very summer-y and cute!

Rainbow Sprinkles!

Happy Friday ladies! :) This mani totally reminds me of cupcakes or ice cream sprinkles! I got the idea from Jennifer's post last week! Click here to view her post! I realllyyyyy love this!!! This look looks fabulous with any pastel colors :) I will have to try it with like a mint green or something as well! Okay so I started off with one coat of Sally Hansen InstaDri - Blue-Away and then added one-two coats of Wet N Wild - Party of Five Glitters and then added one coat of Pure Ice - Cherish (a very creamy-sheer nude color). I liked the look just like that, but I am such a fan off matte-ifying everything, so I finished by added one coat of e.l.f. matte top coat. 

One coat of Blue-Away with one coat of Party of Five Glitters on top

One coat of Cherish added on top

And finally with the matte top coat!
