I'm All Ears!

Hi guys! I just wanted to show you my mani that I did using some of the polishes from OPI Minnie Mouse collection.


For my base color I used two coats of OPI I'm All Ears. It is a beautiful shimmery red with a hint of pink in it. Very easy to apply.



I used OPI If You Moust You Moust for the pink dots and just some random black and white polish for the rest of the dots.I really love how it turned out!
I'm really sorry this post is so short, I have been super busy. Everything should be calming down in the next two weeks and I can start posting more. :)
Talk to ya later!

Sation Just Lilac That and Love At First Lavender Swatch and Review

Happy Monday! Today I have two polishes from the new Sation collection, California Gleamin. I have never tried Sation before, and to be honest before this collection I didn't want to. After seeing these new colors I just had to try them. And I'm so glad I did!





Just Lilac That is a beautiful light lilac with tiny shimmers. This is my absolute favorite light purple ever! Even though it's light, there is this brightness to it. I love it! Formula is great! It is thick but easy to work with. Two coats.

I have to say that I love both of these polishes! I totally recommend you guys to give Sation a try.
Purchase at: misspn.com $5 , transdesign $3.50

All That Glitters, Hole Hearted

Hey everyone! I'm finally back! I have missed you all so much! It took a lot longer to move than I thought it would. We are finally settle. I never want to move again. Anyway, I finally had time to sit and do my nails!  So I decided to show you this awesome polish I got from allthatglitters.etsy.com. I know, I have an Etsy problem. It's called Hole Hearted. Has black hexagons with white heart shaped glitters in a clear base. I used China Glaze Hang-Ten Toes, from the new neon collection, as my base color.



The best way to get the hearts is to use a dotting tool or tooth pick to pick them up off the brush and place them where you want them.



I used a really thick coat of top coat to smooth out the surface, and to make it super shiny.














I love how stark the hearts look and how they stand out. I can't stop looking at my nails! This is my favorite glitter polish so far!





I really love this blog. I want to thank all of you who comment and send me messages. It really means alot to me. Talk to you guys next time!

Pretty and Polished Girls Only

Pretty and Polished is an Indie nail polish brand that I'm sure most of you know about. Chelsea is the creator and you can purchase her polishes at her etsy store . She opened up shop about two weeks ago and in a matter of a hour she was sold out! I had been checking all day for her to open up and I missed it! I was so bummed. But luckily a couple of days later she listed some minis for sale and I was able to get two of them. They are not the ones that I was originally hoping for but I'm so glad I got them!  Today I have one of them for you!

Girls Only has a clear base with a slight purple tint to it. It also has a mixture of blue, purple, and pink glitters. I wasn't sure how I was going to like this but, I absolutely love it! It is super fun and I love the big blue hexagons! For my base color I used two coats of Zoya Heather. I think it's the perfect match!

Cute Summer Pedicure!

Hi Guys! I have a really cute post for you today featuring my 3 year old Piper!  Every since she was a baby I tried to paint her nails. I would sneak and try to do it while she was asleep. That really didn't work. Now she wants me to paint her nails! Even though she will pick it off in an hour I still love to do it.

She wanted me to do her toes so I decided I was going to go all out. She picked the color. Fingerpaints Wharhol Wannabe. I know I have already shown this to you guys but how could I say no ?! I used Konad plate m75 and stamped with Konad white polish. For the flower center I used just a drop of nail glue to add the rhinestones. I wanted to make sure it wouldn't easily come off. After I was done she wanted me to take some pictures. Once again how could I say no?!




Hope you liked this cute little post! Talk to you guys later!

Lush Lacquer Review and Swatches

Hello everyone! I have an awesome post for you guys today! I found this indie brand called Lush Lacquer that makes some really great handmade polishes! It is made by a mother and daughter team. They are 3 free. You can find them at their Etsy store. I bought five of their polishes. These are mini bottles, but you can also buy big bottles. Let's get to the swatches!



Hottie Tottie

Hottie Tottie has tiny purple glitters with holographic aqua and silver big hexagon glitter. I used three coats but you could get away with just two coats. This is a super fun polish!




Spring Fling
Spring Fling has different shapes and sizes of green, pink, gold, and sliver glitters in a pink base.  I used two coats. With my skin tone it looked more coral and the green glitters just stood out. I love it! It really does make me think of spring.


Dreamsicle


Dreamsicle has fine holographic glitter, silver holographic bar glitter, and blue holographic hexagon glitter all in a pale blue base. Two coats. This is a dream! You really have to see this in person to appreciate how pretty this is.



Birthday Cake
Birthday Cake is full of different colored bar and small round glitter in a milky white base. There is also some holographic sliver hexagons that adds a beautiful sparkle! I'm in love with this polish! It looks just like icing with sparkly sprinkles! Two thick coats.


Chubby Checker

Chubby Checker has different shapes and sizes of black and white glitters in an iridescence pink base. This is my favorite! I love the square glitter! It is just so different. I'm gonna have to buy a full size bottle of this. Two coats.



They all were really easy to apply. Opaque in 2 or 3 coats. I really loved all of them, but Chubby Checker and Birthday Cake are my favorite. You can purchase mini or full sized bottles. So go check them out! Lush Lacquer. I'd love to hear which one is your favorite!

Sally Hansen Smooth and Perfect

Hello Everyone! Today I have three polishes from Sally Hansen Smooth and Perfect. They have been out for awhile so I finally decided to try them out. The formula is perfect! They were really easy to apply. But they are sheer so I had to use three coats. No top coat.



Whisper is a very pale purple that has a tiny pearl finish.






 Sea is a pale mint green jelly.







Air is a pale blue with the same pearl finish as Whisper. This one is my favorite!



These are really great polishes! If you like light polishes then you will love these! They add the perfect hint of color!
