Chic to Chic

  1. Hey all, today I have to share with you all, my last post of the black and white themed nails roundup post for TNCC.

    As my base polish I am wearing a pink polish called Chic to Chic by IDB, I found it to be very streaky which is surprising because I've heard great reviews for this brand. This is 3 coats. 

    The black and white glitter is called St. Avant Garde, it is a good dupe for China Glaze's Whirled Away from the Cirque De Soliel collection.

Friday Kisses with some Cola

Hey everyone and happy Friday, I've had a long week even with a day off on Wednesday, how has your week been?

I'm so happy it's Friday you just don't know. I've been waking up at midnight for no good reason, the good thing is I go back to sleep quickly without tossing or turning. On my nails today I have some nail stickers I got from Beall's Outlet a few months back from the clearance aisle. The original price on these were marked as 3.99 but it was marked $1.99 then I got 30%off with my discount card woo hoo right!! 

I like these because they are made on a sheet instead of the single stickers like the Sally Hansen salon effects, those tend to dry out once you open the packet. 

The red polish I'm wearing is from the OPI Coca Cola collection, it's called Coca Cola Red. 

Have a great weekend!!

The Nail Challenge Collaborative- Black and White #3

Hey everyone, 

I remembered just a few minutes ago I needed to upload this for my 3rd post for TNCC. I JUST LOVE CREATING BLACK AND WHITE DESIGNS!! For this design I used Hard Candy's glitter "Sweet Tart" and I'd like for you to know that there are two different glitter formulas smh. I spotted it in Walmart and knew that they changed the formula, they're just too busy for their own good lol.

Hi ladies, how are you today on this Monday Eve lol I have to work tomorrow too so don't think I'm rubbing it in lol. I have here to show you a quick comparison post of my Navy blue textured polishes.

Cruising Pink Style

Good morning everyone!

We are one day closer to Friday aren't you all just so excited. I haven't been doing much writing on the blog I guess because I have acrylic nails now, I don't feel like changing my polish as much. I did change them last night though, today I'm wearing and untried polish that I got from CosmoProf. 

We all know that this store is not open to the general public, and you also know that I am not let licensed nail technician lol; but I was along with my hairdresser friend and she loved me the have my first experience.

It was a great experience looking around but I wasn't overly excited once I got in there, but I can say that the deals and the prices are crazy nice!!

I am wearing this pink shade mail polish from Morgan Taylor, it is from her "Cruising In Style" collection. This is 2 coats of "Let's Go To The Hop". On my accent nail I'm wearing a shredded/crackle polish by Maybelline. I always liked crackle finish even if  alone on this one!

Dupes my bad- Sinful Colors Opi China Glaze

Hey people, I am so mad that I waited this late to post this, after have been thinking about it all day. I have some dupe polishes that I'd like to show you from my stash.

This is Sinful Colors "Mint Tropics", CG "Shore Enuff" and OPI "You're so outta lime". This is 2 coats w/o a top coat. I say the CG & OPI are a close catch.


These other ones are a fun multicolored glitter formula polish which are, Sinful Colors "Pride" & OPI "Chasing Rainbows". The gold octagon glitters in the OPI polish are bigger.


Pretty good comparison right?! Do you own any of these polishes?

Orange Jellicious

Hi Everyone and Happy Monday, how was your weekend; if it was anything like mine then it was way too short!! 

I pushed myself to do my nails last night because I was in deep watching Law & Order episodes on Netflix from the 90's. I chose to do a simple jelly mani with two untried polishes. My orange base color is Wet N Wild's polish called "Cursed", I applied two coats of it. On my accent nails I applied two coats of it then one coat of Nanacoco's "Snowflakes" polish. which consists of all white circle and tinsel glitters.

The Nail Challenge Collaborative- Black & White #1

Hello everyone.... 

I have here my first post for June as I am participating in TNNC roundup posts. For this month we voted for black & white themed nails and I'm glad, I happen to like black & white designs.

Although this design isn't anything to jump excitingly about, you can never go wrong with dots. For my nails I let a student friend of mine practice doing acrylics for $5. I encourage her to follow her dreams, I've been contemplating taking the course myself.

The Beauty Buffs: Neon Everything


Happy Hump Day my beauties.... and speaking of beauties, I have another fun themed post from The Beauty Buffs to share with you all. Anyone that knows me, knows that I love me some neon stuff; bright colors make me happy. I've never met a neon item that I didn't like. I decided not to do a nail design because we have some big mucks touring my job today so I didn't want them blinding anybody. 

For my post I wanted to showcase a few things that are neon that I love. These swatches on the nail wheel are from different polishes, but they're some of the neon colors I gravitate towards when I do rock neon colors. 
1. China Glaze- Celtic Sun 2. Sinful Colors- Dream On 3. Bettina- Hopeful 4. WnWC- Beat of a Generation. 


Next are some decorative neon colored nail studs that I bought from Forever 21. 




Lastly, this is a eye shadow palette I bought from Kmart when I bought the Wet N Wild "Street Art" collection polishes, this is also by WnW and it's called "Arts in the Streets".



Neon is everything to me and the other girls at The Beauty Buffs, check out their posts showing you Neon Everything!!
