Night Prowl Wet n Wild Swatch

Night Prowl by Wet n Wild
This color is a sheer black base with dark pink micro-glitter.
Its medium sheer, not super sheer.
It like black with a girly twist.
Its a bamf black, thats what it is!
I love it!

My only problem with this awesome color is that
it has already chipped on me. And its only
been one day...ONE DAY! Argh...
But I love it anyways.

Have an awesome day y'all!

I hate it when this happens!

I broke a nail...
Oh the heartbreak.
BUT! It was only a pinkie, and it isn't terrible, and it isn't on the hand I photograph.
Thank Goodness!
Now to grow out that little puppy.

Have an awesome day, and I hope you don't break your nails!

NOTD Wagon Trail with Gold and Black Shatter

For today's nails I used Wagon Trail from China Glaze.
Which is an amazing murky olive black with gold and olive shimmer.
And on my ring finger I used Glitz from Orly
with OPI's Black Shatter on top.

NOTD Simple Blue and Copper Tribal


My Nails of the Day are Simple Blue and Copper Tribal.

For my copper color I applied Shim-merry Chic from OPI's 2009 Winter Collection.
And the blue on my ring finger and stripes
on my pointer and pinkie is Blue Collar From Orly
And the simple chevron pattern was done with
white, black, yellow, magenta, and blue strippers.

I love the tribal trend going around.
Its easier than it looks.

NOTD Mint Green Stripes



Here are my Nails of the Day:
Mint Green with Black and White Stripes
These were also my 1st day of school nails.
Kinda reminds me of retro wallpaper.
I used Icing nail polish in Mint 2 Be and So Easy Stripe Rite in Black and White.


Where's the Party - Essence w/ gold hearts


Here is a swatch of Essence -Where's the Party- 1 coat
I found the formula to be too thick to work well with.
It needed some nail polish thinner really badly.
But I love the color. Its a purple base the turns into a duochrome grey and green.
While camping, I paint a friend's nails.
Thank you very much Jessica for being my nail model.
I later added some gold hearts with a gold gel pen.
And afterwards I put 1 coat of Seche Vite.

Camping with Space Cadet

This weekend I went camping up at Salt Point.
Amazing weather!
I painted my nails with Orly's Space Cadet
with Orly's Top2Bottom
as my base coat and
Seche Vite x2 coats for the top coat.
After three days I only suffered tip wear and no chips!
Awesome Sauce!







I later drew on some hearts with a green gel pen I had and another Seche Vite top coat layer to protect it.

Tropical Sunset Nails w/ Kelsey

For this Design I used:
  • Bonita Nail Polish in Wild
  • Sally Hansen in Fushia Bling Bling
  • Jesse's Girl in JulieG
  • China Glaze in Sun Worshipper
  • Black Nail Polish Striper
  • Sally's Girl in Pink Glitter
I made a simple gradient using the purple, pinks, and yellow. Then I add a palm tree and a small base and finally added glitter because glitter makes everything better.
The base coat was Top2Bottom by Orly and my top coat was Seche Vite. (The Best Thing Ever!)

You know you have amazing friend when they let you paint their nails.
Just Sayin...
