Hi,

Today I have my first China Glaze Prismatic glitter on the blog. When I heard about these polishes I knew I had to get them all (which I did) and even tho they didn't live up to the hype I'm still glad I got them.

The first one I tried is Full Spectrum. It's a pinkish, lavander polish with tons of hexagonal glitter in every color possible. I know these are supposed to be duo-chromes but usually you only the the color difference depending on the lighting. This one shifted from pink, to lavander to silver but. Check out the pics.
On the pic above you can see how the polish looks almost like a silver glitter.
This last pic was taken in the shade and the polish here looks more purpley than in direct sunlight. Bottom line the polish does shift color but you will see only one color at a time not like with regular duo chromes that you see the degrading of the colors in your nails.

If you wanna pick up this shade you can get it at Victoriasnailsupply.com for $3.50 (Where I got mine)

What do you think? Did you get any of the prismatic glitters?

Thanks for reading <3

Hi guys!

Today I have a pink OPI polish for the ocassion (you know Wednesday=pink) that the lovely D'Anna from Not Another Nail Blog (@NotAnotherNB) sent me when she agreed to do a Swap with me a couple of months ago. She's such a sweetheart, she went through my wishlist and sent me more than I wanted. Thanks love!

On to the polish, I know you've already seen a thousand swatches of this polish but here are mine. These are 3 coats indoors.
For some reason I didn't like this polish on me although it is gorgeous and I tried to add some flowery stamps which were a total fail so no pics of that.

What do you think of this polish? Do you have it? Have you even done a Swap? Let me know in the comments.

Thanks for reading <3

Hey everyone!

I have a pretty mani to show you today. I finally got my hands on the Cheeky Stamping plates from amazon yay! The designs in this set are super pretty.

For my first mani using them I chose this crazy lines design from the plate CH 16. As base color I used China Glaze Kinetic Candy which was a nightmare to apply, then I stamped the first set of lines using CG Beauty and the Beach and the second set of lines with CG Rodeo Fanatic. Check it out:
I wore this for 3 days and then took the pics so you might see a little tip wear in the pics.

What do you think? Did you get the chance to order the Cheeky plates on Amazon?

Thank you for reading <3

Hi guys!

It's Monday again, I had a 4 day weekend so I'm pretty relaxed right now and ready to keep blogging.

A few days ago I tried another A-England polish and I love love loved it. The pics below are only 2 coats and no top coat.
I added some extra sparkle with a coat of Hits Lambada because who doesn't love flakies, right?
I love how flakies look in the shade cause you can actually tell the shapes and colors better.

Have and awesome week and thanks for reading <3

Hi ladies!

I've been so lazy lately that I haven't been posting as much as I should even when I received some amazing nail mail on Friday and I certainly have been painting my nails. I promise I'll try harder.

I had the idea of re swatching some of my old polishes because I wanted to use them again and the old pictures were a total disaster. So to start with my new blast from the past series I have Color Club Total Mistery from last year's Alter Ego Collection.

I totally love this shade is a Dark Blue kind of jelly polish with tons of pink and blue shimmers in it. Check it out
A Macro shot of the polish so you can see the pink and blue sparkles in it.
And finally the shameful picture of the first swatch I ever took of this polish, look at those tiny nails and big cuticles. What a difference a year makes!

Hello ladies!

Since today is Wednesday I have a pink polish to show you. I wore this a few weeks ago but never got around to post it since I get home so tired after work and I just couldn't make myself sit in front of the computer and edit the pics.

Anyways, I finally found the time so here you have it. The base color is Color Club Get a Clue and I added a couple of coats of the Make Up Store Anki. The polish has like a greenish shimmer but my camera refused to get it right.
I really liked how simple and pretty it looked on my nails.

What do you think? Do you have something similar in your collection?

Thank you for reading <3

Hi guys!

I'm gonna make a quick post to show you this mani. I've been super busy in my new job and I haven't had the time to do it.

For this design I used a bunch of polishes and plates so I'm gonna list them all below:

* OPI Rumple's Wiggin' (base color)
* L'Oreal Party Hop (Shimmery lavander coat)
* Color Club Yum Gum+ Red Angel plate (stripes)
*OPI Lincoln Park After Dark + XL Plate A (puzzle)
I wore this manicure for 3 days and I was totally happy with it since I love jigsaw puzzles.

Now back to work.

Thank you for reading <3

Hi ladies!

It's Friday again and the weather is beautiful outside all sunny and warm that I decided to use a summery color for my nails and came up with a Kleancolor polish I grabbed a couple of weeks ago because it really stand out between all the other polishes.

The color is like a lime green metallic type. Kind of Who the Shrek Are You? but with a greener base. Formula was great I only needed two coats.
A shade pic
And now a little bottle comparison with the polishes that look more alike to this one in my collection.
Is this a shade you would wear?

Hello!

It's almost Friday and I hope everyone's been enjoying their week. I'm still on vacation but I'm really excited to start my new job on Monday.

After showing you my Essie Polish Collection I decided to make a design using only their polishes. As a base color I chose Bangle Jangle and then I stamped it with Boobing for Baubles and my XL Plate A that I got on ebay.
Hope you like this design. I most certainly did.

Thank you for reading <3
