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!

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!
Lava by itself

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

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;)

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.

More Gradients??!
Yes, more gradients. I like them, it's really easy and pretty. Today I chopped off my nails because I'm having some serious tears going on in my right hand. I like it this length, I don't remember the last time they were so short! I'm in a super good mood because I got asked out last night by someone I've had a crush on for a long time:) Anyways, the mani today is using Petites Island Smoothie which is a metallic sheer baby pink, then Wet n Wild fastdry Tangled in My Web which is a cool black sparkle that I added some smaller black sparkles to, and finally Sally Hansen Black Out.
Have a nice week:)

Ice Cream Sandwich Nails
Hey everyone!! How are you all doing? Today I have a manicure to show you guys that I've never really tried before, and I really like the way it turned out! I started out with two coats of Nicole by OPI Kim-Pletely In Love (a sheer pink with blue shimmer) and then one coat of NOPI Rainbow In the S-Kylie (multicolored, different sized glitters) and another coat of Kim-Pletely in Love for a jelly effect. Then I did a drip design with Wet n Wild Femme Fatale (hot pink with shimmer). I've seen tutorials on how to do this, by hand painting the shapes, but I don't do it that way. I use a dotting tool to draw the bottom of the drops and fill it in with the same dotting tool.
About the Nicole Kim Kardashian collection- I know I use it a lot, because I love the colors! The only problem is that I hate the Kardashian sisters, I don't know why their so famous honestly. Also, the names of the polishes are so annoying. I just felt like I had to get that out there.
My topcoat did some weird wrinkling or something for some reason.
On a side note, I think when I reach 100 followers I'll do a giveaway. You guys just let me know what you think should be in it!

Ruffian with Orly Rock Solid
Hi readers! Today I have Orly Rock Solid over Sinful Colors Let's Talk. It took 2 coats of both.
The one above is most color accurate.
I could only get one good photo of the complete manicure, but you can tell what it looks like, right?
Well I hope you guys liked this post.
In other news, I think I'm going to change my URL to make it match the name of my blog so it's easier to find. Do you guys think that's a good idea? Also, go check out my new page where I'm going to post my awards!
Bye for now!
