Push the limit

Hey beauties.... I am sorry I have been MIA lately, I have a few things that I have been trying to handle and get under control. But I managed to do my nails last night, the base color is by Orly from their Adrenaline Rush collection and it's called "Push The Limit". The glitter polish is one I got from Rue 21 over the weekend!

TNCC Spring Flowers Look 2

Hey everyone,

Here's my look #2 for this month's theme for Sprinf Flowers over at The Nail Challenge Collaborative.

For this look I chose to do simple flowers created by the dots system lol (it took 4 dots to make the flowers). I used two polishes from Fingerpaints new "Tie Dye" collection, the yellow is "Yellow Out Man" & the Orange is "Tie Dye Tangerine".

Kiara Sky The Egyptian Goddess

Omg y'all as I write this post I am overwhelmed with joy!! Why? I'll tell you why.... Someone loves me here at Nailmattic, as minuscule as it might seem since the year started the likes on my page has jumped tremendously! Before the new year I was stuck at 600, now I'm over 1300!! I am overwhelmed with the feeling of happiness that my page reaches my viewers! As a blogger these are the things that make slaving over writing and taking pictures to post worthwhile. I want to thank you all for the love because I love you all back!

I didn't know in what direction my blog was going this year because I felt like the attention was waning, but with over 500 blog subscribers on my wordpress blog I know that someone is interested in what I have to say!! 

OAN, feast your eyes on this orange polish I picked up by Kiara Sky last weekend for $3 at my local nail supply. I have a few of her glitters so I wanted to try her Creme polishes, creamy indeed they are the cremsnick!! 

This here is 3 coats and no topcoat, the formula is easy to apply and does not streak, dries shiny and within 5 minutes.

The Nail Challenge Collaborative-Stripes look 2

Good evening!! 

I am really doing the mostest with the postings today aren't I lol. There's no law that says I can't post more than once right :)

I wanted to get the second look to my striped nails for The Nail Challenge Collaborative theme of the month. I did something easy and cute to me, seems like a cute color combo for Halloween as well too right.

The polish that I am using is one I bought from Party City (I believe this brand is a sister brand to Color Club--it bares the same bottle shape and labeling). The color is called Funnel Cake (two coats).

She' Nail Polish

*Product was sent in exchange for honest review*

Hi everyone, just in case you need a little reminder.... approaching the platform is Friday.... For some of us, a 3 day weekend is in order, I for sure miss looking forward to Labor Day for the West Indian parade on Eastern Parkway in NYC, waving my Jamaican flag :).

So guess who has a new brand nail product to review, yes yours sincerely!! On my nails I'd like to share with you all a brand I have seen quite a few times on Marisa's blog (polish-obsession.com). I was happy to see when I was tagged by another friend to check out the company's post on IG, that they were looking for more bloggers to review the polish. The communication went quickly and next thing I know, I got 2 polishes in the mail and here I am blogging about it!!

I received 2 polish. The orange polish first up to the mic is a crelly (creme-jelly formula) polish. I like the formula because I don't own many of this type, I call this color highlighter oranges or Halloween orange. This is 2 coats without a topcoat, I give this formula a 9 only because it isn't good for water marbling. I do a lot of water marble designs and I like to find out which ones are the best for it, this one just doesn't spread in the water.

This is Maxi Dress 

This next polish is called Her Way and I had it my way... I LOVEEEE this formula. It is a smooth cream formula that applied without any signs of streaks and this is only 2 coats without a top coat. The drying time was 5 minutes and the finish is glossy. Did you all hear me when I said I love this one already?! Also this polish is capable of water marbling, it spreads quickly in water so 10 all the way!!

Now you can't have my two, but you can get two of your own from She' Nail Polish HERE. Also, to keep tabs on their upcoming sales and collections, follow these accounts:

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.

Essie- Serial Shopper

Good morning polished pretties, how was your weekend? Probably thinking it was too short like I do. My Mother's Day was very relaxing and I even had dinner made for me so I'm good with that.

I did get a nice group of polishes for my Mother's Day gift so I'm even more good. On my nails is one polish from my gift which is from Essie "Too Taboo" 2014 collection. This color is a coral/peach color. I had a slight problem with the application, I found it to be a little thick & took more time than I liked to dry. This is 3 coats of Serial Shopper.

Hello Kitty Peelable Nail Polish

Hi everyone!! Wo is me, I thought I hit publish on this post, but I didn't. I have had the unpleasant occurence of having this coughing/hacking session at night, it is beyond annoying. I got a few suggestions on facebook from people and I am going to try it, I am so in need of a good night's sleep. 

On my nails I've done a quick review of a polish I got for my cute little niece who's almost 4! I saw these polishes just browsing in Walmart and they're peelable for $2.97. Now at first when you put it on, it'll look like the advertised color, but it dries pretty quickly into the color that you see now. It doesn't have smell to it like regular nail polish, it smells like Elmer's glue to me. So I have on 3 coats of it which I let completely dry. It is fantastic for my niece whom i've painted her nails before and she likes to pick it off. 

Once completely dry it peels off with no force or much effort. I just wish the colors stayed the advertised colors. Other than that, it's pretty sweet for the little polishettes lol.

There is another character Minnie Mouse you can buy also. 

Pop-arazzi Bright Lights Pink City

Hi ladies wow, I feel like a newborn since I haven't made a post on Saturday in a long time.....

I won't make this post long, so I'd like to show you my many for today. I am over at my homegirl's house and we decided to paint our nails. She is not someone who does her own nails so I decided to give her a little 101 on how to paint your own nails, it was very girly and fun.

On my nails as a base color I'm using Sinful Colors "BRIGHT LIGHTS PINK CITY", however it is nowhere near pink in sight; it is more of a orange polish. 

On top if that I'm using a fun glitter by Hard Candy called "Pop-arazzi", which is filled with a variety of colorful glitters. 

You can pick this up at your local Walmart for $4.

Speckled Pumpkin- Forever 21

Hi ladies, good afternoon. But for me being a bizzy bee at work, I would've been able to post my nails earlier.

I happen to be in the mall this weekend where I walsed from polish bowl to polish bowl in F21. That is where I found these 5 "indie looking" polishes for $2.80 a pop. 

I'll be wearing the 5 that I picked up all week. First up is a polish that reminds me of a Thanksgiving-themed polish with its red, green and gold glitter suspended in a orange base lacquer. At first it was a little thick during application but I decided to shake it up and it worked smoothly thereafter. 

Here are 3 coats of Speckled Pumpkin.
