Nails.. again!


Yay, my first 'blog sale' buy!

Shout out to Cookie Baby for sending me this, and these gorgeous earrings!

I love love love this color. I don't know if it's because its pink (which is my favorite color) or if it's because I FINALLY got a color I did not have before! Which is an accomplishment for me because I have a lot of nail polish!


It was easy to go on, although I put this over a white base (Wet N' Wild) because two months ago I slammed my fingers in a car door, and there's still discoloration on two fingernails (and I didn't want the color to look off on those nails) so I put a basic color first.

I also had flash on, but it looks really similiar, just a little.. shinier. So anyway,

Pros: Easily on, cheap (usually $1), only two coats needed (which surprised me), it's pink (bonus for me..)

Cons: It dries sticky at first, and it needs two coats (I'm really lazy)

Other than that, I can't think of anything to add to this. I would recommend a top coat to this, just to keep from chipping (which is does, I've already chipped it once).

Color: 9/10
Price: 10/10
Overall: 8/10

New Nails! (glitter, yum)


Sooo.. I did my nails new again!

I change my nails so much that I've decided from now on, I refuse to use clear top coat. Or at least, OPI top coat. That stuff is a bitch to get off!

Anyway, this time, I used two nail colors on my nails. The first was a matte color from Claire's, and the other was a glitter from Sinful Colors. I was going to just leave the Matte, but... I added glitter.

The Claire's nail color was pretty good actually. That really surprised me. I had to take it off cause I messed up, and it came of pretty easy too. I'd give it a 8/10 because it's a little thick (I don't know if that was because of the finish), but easy to work with besides that.

The Sinful Colors was great (for glitter), but besides that, I personally world avoid buying it because there's basically no color besides the glitter. It's very useful for putting on OVER colors...but besides that, not really useful. I'd give it a 5/10.

Here's the bottles!

Been so long...

My cat is stalking my door... sort of weird.

I need to have a sale. I just emptied the last of my dresser drawer for beauty stuff... talk about crowded!

FREE STUFF HERE!

haha kidding.


I discovered my new favorite cheap nail polish.. Have you guys ever tried Claire's? Pretty good stuff. I mixed in some of my MAC glitter, and bam looks good. Try it!

First Review.. Current Nail Polish!


I'll get a picture shortly of the bottle, but I have on my nails currently, N.Y.C. (New York Color) 140B 'Empire State Blue'.

Overall, I like New York Color polish. First off, it's cheap. I get my bottles from Target for .99 cents. So basically, I just have to steal a little change from my friends to get a bottle:) It's also easy to go on, it isn't sticky or anything once it 'dries' like some of my other brands of polish.

There are some downsides though. I guess, not bad, just annoying. I had to put more than one layer on, which I HATE doing (just because I'm lazy), and its just a bit thick, but you can't really tell unless you're really analyzing like I was..

I also suck at painting my own nails, so sorry for the horrible paint job! But you can still see the color:)

Wow, I really need to lotion my hands..

These were the colors (bases and top coats) used for the nail pictured above:
