Half Matte Glitter Bomb

4 comments  
Just messing around some more with the matte. I'm sure if you can tell if the glitter is supposed to eventually fade down the nails but my nails are so short you really can't tell. I did it on a fake longer nail and it looked absolutely beautiful. Unfortunately that wasn't my case. However, I really...

Black and Gold

6 comments  
Praise God it's Friday! Yay! Yesterday, I attempted to do my nails. I sort of like the outcome but didn't have enough drying time. My little guy started getting really grumpy and my husband who originally said he was going to watch him didn't - he went to sleep. So that led me with no choice. Some polish...

Mini PRO FX Haul

Have any of you used this brand before? I bought the base coat a while ago on a whim since it was on clearance not thinking much about it since it was a few dollars. When I got the chance to try it, my polish no joke lasted for 2 weeks, no chip. I was seriously amazed! I sometimes don't use this...

First off, I am really really loving this mani! Before applying on any polish, I had no idea what I was going to do but I went on ahead and randomly picked up a polish and painted my nails, erased them cause I didn't like them and literally I did this about 3 times before my hubby forced me to just...

Old Polish: Purple Vintage

9 comments  
I can't seem to recall where I saw a photo with a very similar design hence the fact that that was where this design came from. However, I really enjoyed this mani when I had it done. It almost looks vintage! I used Revlon No Shrinking Voilet then with a jelly polish I added Sally Hansen Salon Manicure...

Mini Lush Haul

I went shopping over the weekend and purchased a few products from Lush for the first time! I knew that there is a Lush store somewhere near where I live but I never had the time and didn’t want to just drive all the way out there to buy some health and beauty products. But, I saw that there was a Lush...

I was shopping the other day and saw that my local Walgreens had a sale where Sinful Colors had their nail polishes for only $.99 a bottle. As if $1.99 weren’t cheap enough?!

Old Polish: Angry Birds

6 comments  
This design was done a while ago. I actually was inspired to do it because a friend of mine had Angry Birds on her nails. I was a little hesitant because I honestly didn’t care much for Angry Birds, but I was like, what the hey. Why not?! So it took roughly an hour to get all my nails done. And strangely...

A while ago, I saw on Nouveau Cheap's blog at Rite Aid they were selling the Salon Express Nail Art Stamping Kit. I was a little bummed out because I live in the midcoast and there are certainly no Rite Aids around here. But guess what?! Earlier today as I was browsing and shopping at Target I spotted...

I saw this beautiful awesome orchid mani on someone’s blog, but for the life of me I can’t remember whose it was. When I saw it, I thought it was so beautiful and simple that I had to have it only nails! Man. I wish I can remember who it was. I originally wanted to do a birthday mani on my nails but...
