NOTD: Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!

I wanted to do a St. Patrick's Day manicure but I had a hard time deciding what I wanted to do! Here is what I ended up doing. First, I was going to do all my fingers the same color with a stamp but the color I wanted to stamp with was too thin to stamp with so I had to go to plan B.

Everything I used. Left-Right: Sinful Colors Green Ocean and Irish Green, Cult Nails Hypnotize Me, butter London British Racing Green, China Glaze Gaga for Green, Zoya Manhattan, Illamasqua Elope, China Glaze Luxe and Lush, Zoya Ivanka and Big Ruby nail tattoos from the Juju pack. Not pictured: BM03 stamping plate.


First I started with a base of China Glaze Gaga for Green on all fingers, as that was the color I originally planned to stamp over. 
Thumb:  One thick coat of Sinful Colors Irish Green and Green Ocean.
Index: BM03 shamrock stamp in butter London British Racing Green with  one coat of Cult Nails Hypnotize Me.
Middle:  Big Ruby nail tattoo from Juju pack with  one coat Zoya Manhattan.
Ring:  Two coats of Illamasqua Elope with Big Ruby nail tattoo with one coat of China Glaze Luxe and Lush.
Pinky:  One coat of Zoya Ivanka.

Here is the final look.

So that was my mani for St. Patrick's Day! I love this day! I cooked all my favorite things today and my mani stood up. I hope you enjoyed my LOTD.  Thanks for looking!

Love,

Christmas Layering #2

I wanted to do some thing very festive and I think I achieved my mission. For Christmas Layering #2 I used Zoya Purity as the base with China Glaze Party Hearty on top. I really like how it came out.

Ultimate Purple Glitta Layering

I have been silent far too long.  I have lots to post so bare with me.  I bought the new Revlon glitter polishes last week and have been experimenting with them this week.  I started with the  purple one: Facets of Fuchsia.  I tried it alone at first and was not pleased with the result.  I was so displeased I did not take any pictures of it.  I know I should have but it was like "bleh"!  I recently acquired a long time lemming of Zoya Harlow so I decided to use it as a base with Revlon Facets of Fuchsia over it.

Here is the result of my original combo of Zoya Harlow and Revlon Facets of Fuchsia.  I liked this and got many compliments but still felt it needed something.  Luckily, I went on major nail polish shopping haul yesterday and came across the OPI Serena Williams Glam Slam sets.  One of which contained Servin' Up Sparkle.  I was sitting at my vanity last night looking at all my new polishes and it caught my eye.  I was like "hmmm" and applied it and instantly fell in love.

Here is the end result with OPI Servin' Up Sparkle.  I was staring at it all day today as I worked.  The picture does not do it justice.  But seeing as the Texas sun finally decided to hide from me this was the best I could get!

I hope you like it as much as I do.  I have definitely had fun playing with these lovely colors.  What do you think?

NOTD: True Blood Splatter

I am a die hard True Blood fan and I have been dying to do a splatter mani.  So a big thank you to LTHP for her inspiration.  This is my first attempt at doing a splatter mani.  I used 2 coats of Zoya Purity as the base and Zoya Sooki for the splatter.  These colors are perfect for doing a splatter mani.  Zoya formulas are so awesome to work with too!  Hope you enjoyed it.  I had a blast doing it!
