2 Nail Designs

Hey guys!! Today I have 2 designs to show you. The first is with Del Sol (the color-changing polish) in Ruby Slippers, but it never changed color! I don't know the reason for this, whether it's no sun out, or too heavy a top coat but it just didn't work:( I stamped over that with my trusty red Jordana using plate BM-I don't even know.

 The second I still have on. I used Claire's Twinkle Twinkle (one of my favorites!) and some Bundle Monster nail art stars that I stuck on with top coat.


There you have it! Yes I did shorten my nails a lot, reason being I play guitar and they really get in the way.

Thanks for stopping by!
P.S. Would anybody really mind if I just did another giveaway and tried again but just forget about this one? I just have never done it before and it's so late anyway. Please comment about that!

Long Time No See!

Hey guys!! I'm back obviously.  My LONG vacation was very fun. Since I haven't really done any good designs or taken pictures of my nails lately, I just have a funny picture of my cat to show you. Also it's on 9GAG if anyone goes on there, so vote for it!
Yup. He just decided to sit like this. I swear I didn't touch him!
Have a nice week, I'll be back soon with swatches!

Hi ladies, I picked a winner for the giveaway and she hasn't responded to my email:( so, because I mistakenly made this giveaway in an inconvenient time (because of my leaving) I have to pick another winner when I get home. I know this is a little disappointing, but it will happen, no worries!
Thanks for reading:)
Have a nice summer while I'm gone!

More Flakeys and I'm Leaving

Hello lovely readers:) This is my last post for the next 4 weeks because I'm going on vacation.

I started with Essie Licorice (2 coats, very good opacity!!), then put Deborah Lippmann Bring on the Bling, then Essie Shine of the Times.  When that was all finished, I stamped BM-210 on top using China Glaze Platinum Silver. It looks very spacey to me.  The flakeys still show through the stamp, which instead of being bad is good in this case.  Maybe you'll understand.
This is one of those times that my right hand turned out better than my left, strange!
 Thing is Bring on the Bling over Licorice.
 I forgot to take pictures of Shine of the Times before the stamp, whoops!

 Finished product, above is left hand below is right. See what I mean? The right hand is actually better!

And today is the LAST DAY to enter my giveaway!! Thank you for taking the time to enter it:)

Matte Flakeys

Hi there! Today I have a matte layering experiment because I thought I lost my matte top coat, but it turned out it was just in my drawer with the other polishes and I didn't see it.. ahh that was strange.
I started with Hard Candy Lava and it is a 1 coater, but I like to do 2.  Then I put Sally Hansen Hidden Treasure, which is a yellow-green duochrome flakey top coat. And finally, on top of it all is a coat of Orly Matte Top.  I like the way it turned out!

How do you guys like this?
Have a great week!

OPI Midnight in Moscow Stamped

Today I did a stamp with some pretty colors. The base is OPI Midnight in Moscow, which is a gorgeous vampy dark red.  For some reason, my base color always bubbles up really bad.  The base coat I use is Seche Clear, I don't know if that's a bad one. Does anyone else have this problem and know how to fix it?

The color I stamped with is Funky Fingers Down to Earth.  It's a silvery-gold foil.  Comparing it to my usual gold I use for stamping (Orly Luxe), I don't like DtE as much.  I used a flowery design on plate BM-225.
 See the gross bubbles? I wonder why that is...



Sorry about the fuzzy pictures, I think I need to clean my camera's lens.  Anyways, keep enjoying your summer!

Funky Fingers Baby Baby Baby Swatch and Review




The polish I'm reviewing today is Funky Fingers - Baby Baby Baby.  Its a clear base with light blue sparkles and silver holographic glitters. 2 coats are shown with topcoat.  It is SUPER gritty and chips so bad.  It's not really a long-wear polish, but it's really fun and shiny;)

Funky Fingers Ectoplasmic Swatch and Review

Today I just have a swatch for you all. This is Funky Fingers - Ectoplasmic. It's a seriously bright neon green with blue shimmer. I used 2 coats. When putting it on, this was super matte but it didn't show the blue shimmer so I put a top coat on. Also while I was putting it on, it was really patchy which made it slightly more difficult to put on but the second coat evened it out.  I went skating yesterday, and this polish glows so bright under black lights!!  Overall, this polish is great for the summer.

Deborah Lippmann Sugar Daddy

Hello readers! How are you all? I am sooooooo close to 100 of you... just ONE more!! I'll do a giveaway when I get there:) Well on to today's nails.  I have 2 coats of Deborah Lippmann's Sugar Daddy. It's so amazing! Looking at the bottle, you would think it's only slightly color-shifting but actually it's crazy how much it changes.  Even the slightest angle makes the whole nail gold. Absolutely gorgeous, I would definitely recommend this to anyone, if they're on sale again of course.  On top of that, I have a few decorative rhinestones just for a little something but I didn't want to distract from the polish.
The weird thing about this one is though that my topcoat peeled off after maybe 2 days.  It barely even chipped though as I wore it.



 My camera didn't seem to think this polish was pink though.. odd.

Anyways, I hope you all have a wonderful week!

Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Strobe Light over Night Lights

Wow this one is crazy.  The pictures don't even come CLOSE to the amount of sparkle in these babies.  I mean there is unicorn biological waste coming out the tips of my fingers.  Anyways, I used Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Night Lights (2 coats) which is a sheer-ish charcoal grey with a scattered holo effect.  On top of that I put one coat of Sally Hansen Xreme Wear Strobe Light. It's a clear base with small pink glitters and medium sized holographic glitters.






I had to use quite a few different types of lighting as you can see, but they're all the same polishes.
