Apologetic Rainbow

So I really wasn't planning on posting today, but since I made a boo-boo this morning, I figured I'd oblige you guys with a post. Just be aware, these are really terrible pictures from last summer, taken under indoor light, and I have some chips. Ok, here we go:

I don't really remember what polishes I used, but I know the yellow is by Diamond Cosmetics, the peach is Barielle Blossom, the pink is by OPI, the red is Wet n Wild Red Red, the blue is from the LA Girl Color Addict Line (possibly Idol?), the green is Zoya Apple, and the holo glitter is Covergirl City Lights. I have no idea what brand or color purple I used. Hope you enjoyed!

Happy Polishing,

J

I Guess that Makes Me a Nerd...

Meet my most neglected blue, Nerds Need Love Too. As you can see this is a Wet n Wild color and it is a gorgeous blue! The bottle makes it look like there's shimmer or pearl, but this is pretty much your basic creme.
Coats: 2
Dry Time: Pretty Fast. I think this dried in 5 minutes without top coat.
Opacity: Great. You can do one thick coat if you prefer that to 2 thin coats.
Formula: Awesome. No goopiness or streaks.
Now for the design:
It's pretty simple, just straight lines, all done with Kiss Nail Art polishes I picked up at Rite Aid.

Very simple, but it's lovely.

Happy Polishing,

Yes, Yes I did.

I went to Rite Aid today, and I bought new polish. Of course I did! SH were BOGO 1/2 off and W&W were 99 cents as always, with the exception of their fastdry line, which was 1.99. And then I got 2 NYC polishes for 99 cents each. Care to take a peek?

From L to R:  Essie: kisses and bises; Wet n Wild: Bijou Blue, Sparked, Lavender Creme, Caribbean Frost, Party of Five (so sparkly!); Sally Hansen complete salon manicure: Right Said Red, Shall We Dance?; NYC: Black Lace Creme, Starry Silver Glitter (super pretty sparkles!)

Expect to see these colors on my nails in the future!!

My First Tape Manicure

Last night I decided to try my first tape manicure, and I love it!!! I even got my friends hooked on it. I love the colors uses and the diagonal addition of the teal color.

Colors used: China Glaze Tree Hugger & Shower Together.

It's not perfect, but I'm happy with how it came out for my first time.

The colors look slightly cooler on camera, so if you're thinking about buying these colors, I say go ahead because they're awesome!!

Side note: Rite Aid was having a sale on Wet n' Wild and Sally Hansen nail polishes. Wet n' Wilds were buy one get one free and Sally Hansens were BOGO 1/2 off.

Pictured Here from L to R: Rain Check (purple-blue duochrome), Dream Poppy (hot pink/fuschia creme),

 Grey Area (grey-purple creme), Caribbean Coral (coral creme with slight shimmer)

Happy Polishing,
