Hug & Kiss Me You Fool

Hi everyone (waves),

Today's mani is consists of untrieds in my stash from Essence and Polish Addict Nail Color. For my base color, I'm wearing a light purple polish from Essence's Hugs & Kisses collection; it's called X's and O's. 

For the glitter blanket I applied a light purple lacquer in glitter polish created by Polish Addict called Cotton Candy Shop. I would wear this glitter polish without a base color as well. You can see on my ring finger that it is applied without a base color. With at least three coats, it's very opaque. 





Hardcore in the Pink

Good morning....

Today I'll be showing you the second polish I purchased from the brand Hail Nails. Don't forget to check out more colors on their site www.hailnails.com.

Today I'm wearing a hot pink formula named Hardcore. I'm glad this turned out to be the shade I had to have online and in person. The formula is easy to work with, it's smooth and shows no streaks in between coats. I've applied two coats without a top coat and as you see that it has a glossy finish.

Lately I've been on a matte kick so I've been testing all my mani's with a matte look. I happen to like this color with a matte finish.






Which finish do you prefer??

OPI's a charm

Hi all, back to work for those of us who had yesterday off... Hey we got a job so....

So yea today's mani is brought to you by OPI's Merry Fashionista polish/bangle package. We have not crossed Thanksgiving yet, but Christmas is steady trying to steal its spotlight. 

I came across this package thru an IG account I follow called @allpolished, she posted a pic of her bangle with a OPI charm on it and I instantly thought HOW KAYUTE!! She said she bought it from TJMaxx recently and that's all I needed to hear. 

Ya girl got on the road and tore it up... I found it in my TJMaxx for $7.99 and it comes in a box with one polish & bangle. 
Now for the base color I used Cuccio's "Kyoto Cherry Blossom" which is just a Barbie pink color polish. Over that, I layed a red, multi-color, glittery blanket called "Excuse Moi"! 

Check 1, 2, 1, 2 below....






Check your nearest TJMaxx or just drive around to every single one you know lol

Hail Yes to the nails

Good morning you all... and Happy Veterans Day.

Starting off this week I'd like to share with you a new brand to me called Hail Nails. I came across this brand thru an IG account NailGurlNYC. Tee is a tremendously talented nail artist living in NYC. I implore you all to go check out her work on IG, you'll be thanking me for days. She showed a swatch using this polish by Hail Nails and it looked so creamy I had to sample their product for myself... Yes I can enticed by creme nail polish lol.... You can purchase Hail Nail polishes for $10 from their site www.hailnails.com, they do have promotions also like free shipping codes.

First up on stage is Candy Rain, online this polish looks like a baby blue color but when I got it, it looks more like a mint colored polish. The formula is pretty uniform for a creme polish, for an opaque look I was satisfied with 2 coats. 

As an addition I decided to use a polish I got in the mail this week from Polish Addict. This glittery polish is called Cool Summer.

Trop-X

Hi all and happy Friday Eve...

Today I'm wearing two untried polishes-- ONE TIME for ya girl using her untried stash....

By the way yes I made it back to Nubville, the glitter removal process for those glued on nails was for the birds; I still like to switch it up every now and then.

For my base color I am wearing a pink/coral colored polish by CND called "Tropix". For my glitter layover I am using Sephora Formula X's "Bombshell". Now I can't say that this mani does the Sephora polish justice, but with these type of glitter it's all about finding the right base color that won't take away all its glory.

Well that's why I own it, so I can try again!!

And to all a Merry Pinkmas

Hi every one!! So sorry for these days of little or no posting.... I promise to do better....

Today I'm stoked to share with you a polish I sought after virtually, that is created by the lovely Cristina over at LET THEM HAVE POLISH. if you've been Team Nailmattic for a while you'll know that because it's pink I had to have it!! 

I'm loving the effort and creativity  she has put into this polish. What you'll see below is 3 coats and a top coat. I literally kept the KBShimmer store page open all morning in order to make sure I got mine, I know how polishes go fast; you can purchase yours using the link for KBShimmer!! This winter collection consists of creations by several other creative bloggers, Merry Pinkmas just caught my eye first. Cristina is a fellow CFBeautyBlogger so I had to show love, not only that but she is pretty damn dope!!

Have a Merry ol time enjoying this early Merry Pinkmas...
