Pink Matrix

Pink Matrix that is what my brother called this look...I started off with a base pink under Kleancolor Pink Holo..then added China Glaze Cracked Concrete and a little fimo flower which I'm not sure if I like or not, half the time I like it the other half I don't. Here are the pictures...





Kleancolor Pink Holo isn't 3 free and let me tell you the smell with these (I have 3 or 4) is pretty bad even with the windows open.
Let me know what you think would you wear a polish that has the big 3 or would you rather go with a polish that is big 3 free?
Until next time Ladies take care!

Haul and Crackle!

When Sally Beauty announced that they had Crackle online I knew that was pretty much the only place I would be able to get it since out of the 3 stores I have around me only one might get it but wouldn't keep it long. So this is my haul from them... China Galze Crackle in Broken Hearted, Cracked Concrete, and Black Mesh, a base coat, some fimo fruit and flowers..here is a picture. Now since I knew that I was going to be getting crackle today I painted my niece (who is 12) and my nails. Now K's favorite color picks of my polish are usually some of my brightest colors and she went right to China Glaze In the Lime Light (2 coats). So today I showed her how to use the Crackle.."you have to be fast, and that she could go in any direction if she wanted" so she told me "I get it I get it".. so I handed over her own bottle of Black Mesh and let her go to town. This is how her nails look!

Didn't she do a great job?! I think it looks GREAT! Love the green and black together. K told me it was "easy to use" and it's "Zebra like patterns are cool" !
Now for me! I put on Zoya Harlow which is a gorgeous matte "plum rose". I did know I was going to like it matte but I didn't know I was going to LOVE it with a top coat! Here are the pictures!




Isn't she beautiful? By today though it was chipping :( but I wasn't so sad because I knew I would get my Crackle today and slap that on it! Just look how pretty Harlow Mesh is!
I really like the look of this and can't wait to try the other crackles!

I have a quick story I was telling my Mom about this Crackle polish a few weeks back but calling it by Shatter and describing it to her and said that is was called by crackle in the 90's (???not sure on that) which was when she interrupted me with "crackle oh I remember that" *insert a small shocked face from me* and we both tried to remember when it came out (we figure the late 90's) and laughed about it!
Please tell me what you think I would love to hear feedback!
Until next time ladies!

This is what I'm wearing!

Quick post today, my nephew was over while I picked out my polish for this post. Out of all my colors from China Glaze (it's the container I was picking from) he picked out Sexy In The City (3 thin coats) which I usually wear during the summer on my toes but he picked it so I put it on! I did a tape Manicure like Chloe with 2 coats China Glaze Wireless Holographic Top Coat here are the pictures!..yes that is a mini dinosaur eating my yummy nail goodness!

Last picture I just added stars on the line between colors or at least I tried to with Konad plate M03. I really like this color with the holographic top coat!

What do you think?

Until next time ladies!

Purple Rainbows

I have a great love for Holographic nail polish. I missed out on OMG by China Glaze (but I will be getting TRONICA! ) and I'm still kicking myself for not getting it when I could! Today I have O.P.I. DS Original I have so much LOVE for this color! I wear it on my toes most of the time during the summer...just a little rainbow that travels with me wherever I go. DS Original is a great purple holographic which in 3 coats was perfect for me (of course with a base and top coat). Then by day 3 I primped it up a bit with a light Konad touch of purple on purple using Zoya Yasmeen with bm16. I wore this manicure for 4 days no chipping what so ever! Love it! here are the pictures! (*SORRY FOR THE CLEAN UP PROBLEMS I WILL BE GETTING A PAINT BRUSH SOON TO TRY TO HELP WITH MY CLEAN UP*)


**Just a small note I had to call Zoya last week because my wand broke on my bottle of Moxie I just didn't know how bad when 2 or 3 days later I got the replacement cap I took the cap off and this is what I had!


Zoya replaced my cap free of charge and had wonderful customer service every time I have had to talk to them I have been a customer since 2009 and plan to stay one!

Do you own any holographic nail polish? Do you plan on getting any of the China Galze Tronica colors?

Well until next time have fun polishing!

Tiffany

Zoya makes such great colors that I sometimes forget I have others. Now Tiffany is no where near my comfort zone in a color I would wear which coming from me is pretty funny...since I love neon purples and blues! I don't know but when I went for the color I was thinking that I need something that isn't purple, blue...This pink-ish peach color actually had my attention more the then popular Crystal from the same collection (flame). Here are the pictures!
Day 1, 3 coats of Zoya Tiffany. Day 2, I stamped it using Konad special black polish on ip 73 my favorite stamp by the way. Day 3, I added the black tips with wet 'n wild black..I have been seeing this on a few different nail polish blogs and can't say I liked it 100% but after trying it out myself I was sold on the idea! I like it a lot and think this just might be my Valentine manicure..
So what do you think of Tiffany?
Until next time enjoy polishing!

This is my haul from Ulta!

All those were clearance or BOGO! Do you see that Piggy Polish  only $.99, what a deal!

I had to channel Rhianna for this one!




The easiest way I found to do the smiley faces is with a NEW sharpie!
This next one is China Glaze in Turned up Turquoise, I got it on sale for $2.99 and had a dollar off coupon after that, Happy Days!


This is going to be my Valentine's Day color!




Happy Polishing,

My Bloody Valentine!

I thought up this manicure while thinking I needed something different for a Valentine Day mani...I started with an older bottle of NYC pink (number 229) topped it with Sally Hansen Diamond Ring (3 coats of the pink, 1 coat of Diamond Ring). I then got to Konading just picking at a whim (ip m13 and m21 used here) I used konad special polish black pearl and red and topping them with Konad clear top coat. Here are the pictures! First 3 are inside, last 2 are taken outside!




Until next time enjoy polishing!

Zoya love...Kelly Rainbowed

My love for Zoya is growing...So this mani came about while on Zoya's fb page I was talking to another blogger Megan, she mentioned putting another Zoya color on top of Kelly I don't have that color YET! So I searched my polish for something very sheer and found four polishes. Out of the four I tried, Sally Hansen Hidden Treasure became my pick...so here are the pictures!

Oohh so pretty! I just love the combo! grey + rainbow flakies = goodness!
Until next time enjoy polishing!
