NOTD: Pastel Half Moon Mani & New Camera!

Hey you guys!! How have you all been?! Me, well I have been busy like crazy! As some of you may know, I recently released my Valentine's Day collection and now I am working on my Spring collection!
While I was coming up with some concoctions, I got inspired to do a pastel mani!


This was my first time doing a half moon mani, but I like it :) I used OPI Pink Friday, China Glaze Re-Fresh Mint ( though I think I got a bad bottle because it doesn't look like my other bottle of Re-Fresh Mint) and finally Essie Nice is Nice.

Also!! I got a new camera! A Nikon D600 with a 60mm lens :) I posted a picture on Instagram last night because I was so excited! hehe. So look forward to better pictures and new polishes!!


Thanks everyone!! ♥ ya ;)

New Year's Eve Nails!

Hey everyone!! Here I thought I would share two of my mani's I did using the New Years Collection!

My first mani is a reverse glitter gradient, which I just love! I used ILNP's All Gold Everything over OPI's   Honk If You Love OPI  **Honk Honk**


My second mani is ILNP's 11:59 over OPI's French Quarter For Your Thoughts. I thought this was a perfect color combo for NYE. It has all the right colors to go with that shimmery black dress and gold accessories :)



Well what do you guys think?! Any plans for New Year's? What will be on your lovely nails? Okay Okay, enough with the questions ;)

♥ Thanks everyone!

NOTD: A Random Mani!

Hey Everyone! How are you all doing? Getting ready for the holidays? It sure seems like it's coming up quick this time, I haven't even gone Christmas shopping yet! I'll tell you what I have been doing though... my nails! hehe

Here's a random mani of mine I did a couple of days ago. I needed to do some more cleaning around the edges but ran out of nail polish remover! What? How in the hek?! I know I know, crazy. I had to do an Amazon order for my Zoya Remove +. What polish remover do you guys use?




For this mani I used: China Glaze Exotic Encounters, OPI Mrs. O'Learys BBQ, OPI Did You 'Ear About Van Gogh? (on our FB page I put OPI Berlin There Done That, wrong color, oops)  ILNP Little Mermaid and Color Club Matte-ified.

What do you guys think?! What's on your nails?

OPI Oktoberfest + Bella = AMAZING!

Hello loves! How you guys been? Awesome? Spectacular? Just plain freakin fabulous? haha okay, enough enough.
Sooo I opened my store and have sold some polishes! I can't wait to hear the feedback :) It's pretty exciting!!

So I bought a few of the OPI Germany Collection polishes and must say I LOVE "Every Month is Oktoberfest" The color is such a fab color, I want to say its a burgundy with a little more maroon to it... make sense? Maybe not. hehe.
Now to match this awesome color I chose and awesome indie polish (mine) to apply on top. I call it "Bella". It's a nice combo of black and red squares and hex.

(OPI Every Month is Oktoberfest + Bella)

The picture above is with two coats and the one below is with one coat.


What do you guys think? Would you wear it?

NOTD: Different Shades of Gray!

Me again! I've been exploring some more with colors and textures. Here I used a couple different greys or grays, which ever spelling you prefer ;)
I love the way the OPI Lucerne-Tainly Look Marvelous applies. Nice and smooth with full coverage. I usually don't like that shade of gray against my skin tone, but having the other colors also on my nail made it work for me :)
Well here ya go! Let me know what you think!



Happy Memorial Day everyone!!!

Glitter Galore!

Hey everyone! Well its day 4 with no makeup and it is killing me! BUT! A bet is a bet, therefore I shall stay strong!
I wanted to take a pic of my new hair color, but the lighting wasn't that great so you couldn't get the real look of it. So hopefully tomorrow during the day I will.
But what I did get to take a picture of, are my fabulous glitter galore nails! I just found this dark blue/purple-ish color; OPI Road House Blues and fell in love! I also added OPI Sparkle-icious on top of two nails.

Well Im off to bed now, but wanted to say hola to everyone and to all my new followers!

New Mini Haul

As I was Christmas shopping I grabbed myself a couple of necklaces and some nail polish! I had the Owl necklace before, but it broke, so I grabbed a new one! I got them both from Forever21.



And for my nail polishes! I found this awesome Discount Beauty Store and they had a llllloooot of polishes for cheap! I got my OPI 'Ski Teal We Drop' for $4.50!! Whoohooo definitely going back there for polishes
I love the color but I didnt clean my cuticles so its kinda messy.. I put Hidden Treasure on the one finger, in which will be part of my giveaway once I reach my 100 Followers! 



Haha Looks like Im missing a finger!
