HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME

Today is my birthday YAY!! So I decided to put some bling in my swing. For my nails I've used two OPI liquid sand polishes, Magazine Cover Mouse (red) & Honey Ryder (gold) along with Zoya "Ziv".

I did my acrylic nails set for the first time, it's not perfect but I accomplished my goal!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR to you and have a safe night. Please drink responsible and call the AAA hotline if you don't have a designated driver. 

Ruby Wing Zen Garden

Hi ladies, I'm so sorry that I have just posted only once this week. I have out-of-town guests and I've just been busy recuperating from Christmas. So I hope Santa (the Polish Santa that is), was good to you all. 

Today I am wearing a polish from Ruby Wing called "Zen Garden". It's a color changing polish and unfortunately it's been rainy here and I won't be able to show you the color it changes to. It's suppose to go from this light purple to a brown color. 

On my two accent nails is a polish I got from Rue 21. No cool names I guess they're too cool for em lol. The formula is a purple lacquer mixed with blue circle and tinsel glitters. I've applied 3 coats. I've picked up a few more and if you haven't been to the store, go to their site and find a location near you they have really great deals www.rue21.com. 

You're gonna see me ROAR

GOOD MORNING NAILMERICA!! Well it looks like I see Christmas Day approaching the platform with gifts and such, I've been good I like to think..... For me I'll be proactive and start wrapping the kids gifts tonight.

So what I've got going on today are some animal print nails. If you're my friend, you'll know that I'm quite fond of leopard, tiger and cheetah print. In some instances I like zebra print too, providing it's executed well!!

These animal print nail decals are by Sally Hansen Salon Effects, they're called "Rock N' Roar". I've had these for a while and there was an open pack in my stash, I suggest you dispose of the pack if you don't use all of them because they dry out.  So I'm wearing two of my favorite things: pink & animal print. The pink polish is by OPI, which is called "If you moust, you moust". I enjoyed creating this mani, I suppose I'll wear it for a few ticks.....

With my birthday coming to a girl named ME and that it's one day away from 2014, you're gonna hear me ROAR lol :))

Platinum Belugaria

Out of the whole Essie "Encrusted Treasures" collection, this is the only one I had to have!! It just seemed so elegant and reminded me of caviar bling lol!! 

On my other nails I'm wearing another polish from Bettina's "Grandeur" collection, this one is Platinum, now you know you can't have bling without platinum jewels!! This polish has a silver/gold tone to it? It has fine gold glitters in the mix of things also,

11 MORE DAYS TILL MY BDAY!! I'm getting my birthday nails ideas into the brain storm!!

I hope you all are getting your Christmas shopping done, you have some time left but I wouldn't call it a lot of time!! 

Happy Holidays

Mint Chocolate Chip Mani

Hi ladies, this is a late post, a post I should have uploaded yesterday!

Yesterday's mani consisted of 3 polishes, two which seems of the same color. The mint green polishes I am wearing on my gradient fingers are OPI "Mermaid Tears" & Morgan Taylor's "Mint Chocolate Chip".  The green glitter indie looking polish is Nanacoco's "Macaron". I picked this one and several others like it from a nail supply store in Orlando. This is 2 coats of the glitter.

Sand Texture Swatches~Random

Good morning everyone, today I'm going to be showing you some random swatches that I just randomly picked out of my collection yesterday.

This set is a set I bought by Expressions girls for my little niece, but the scent of it was so strong that we had to take it off immediately. I picked this set up for $4.99 in TJ Maxx, it was in the section for little girls. When I saw that it was a textured polish for little girls I grabbed it up, because of course I want my little niece to be fashionable also.

However I didn't feel the texture in this polish, it just seems like a metallic polish more than it is textured; but yes the scent is very overwhelming. It's like as soon as you open the bottle it just hits you like a tornado. 

Well here I'm showing you two coats of each polish and there aren't any cool names but I do like the colors of them.

LA Splash Pink Lavender

Hi all, today's mani brings to me & u a polish that has been in my stash for months. I bought this 3 polish+ 4 package glitter set from Ross months ago. LA Splash is the name, I've seen it online but never got around to buying any. $6.99 in Ross.

The formula is average quality and dries well with a shine no top coat.

Sinful Colors Treasure Chest

Hi everyone and happy Monday 

Today on my nails is the second polish I got from the Sinful Colors Crystal Crush collection. This one is called Treasure Chest. I saw swatches of this polish so much and each time pushed me to find this polish. Florida doesn't have Rite Aid stores so I had to have my sister in GA to get on her cape and get ta gettin-- and she did.

Here is 3 coats of it, I just love it so. I wasn't going to have an accent nail but I decided against it; just one!!
