I lily love you! (pic heavy)

hey everyone! today i have for you one of my new favorite polish! OPI- i lily love you. this color is super fun flakie glitters in a light pink base. i haven't tried this one on its own but i can't wait to layer it over more colors! i think i'll try it over a dark purple next time.

i must admit i looove this color! it's so eye catching in real life!

this is 2 very thin coats of i lily love you over 2 coats of CG- strawberry fields.

look at that beauty! i couldn't stop looking at my nails! i'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

what do you think of OPi- i lily love you?  have you layered it over something other than pink?

too much, too little

hey everyone! once again, there is no excuse for my absence. since i know you don't want to hear the annoying issues of why i've been gone for so long, i'll tell you some great news! in order to keep myself more up to date with my blog and in the spirit of christmas which is just around the corner, i will be having a 12 days of christmas giveaway! i will write more on that in a second.

i will also be having a blog sale on some new frankens i have created, and will also be selling the ones i've mentioned here before. i am trying to cleanse myself before the new year so there will be a lot of my own polishes for sale as well! i hope to have the blog sale up by the beginning of next week. maybe sooner!

the 12 days of christmas giveaway just means that starting on the first of december i will be giving away one nail polish everyday until the 12th. i will post up the rules and all that good stuff by the end of this month. i'm so excited to be doing this and hope whoever wins is happy to receive one more gift to open! there will be many chances to win!

so FINALLY on to todays nail post.

this is Santee- red. such an inspiring name. lol with OPI gold shatter on top

this shade was really bright but more on the pink side. it's kinda awesome!

i think this might be one of the last pictures i took before i cut them again.

anywhoooo stay tuned, i've got lots of great things coming up!

Spam!!!! (pic heavy!)

hey everyone. so i know i've been very MIA lately. sorry. unfortunately, i think i will have to put the 31 day challenge on hold. maybe i'll just restart it another time? i won't have any time to do some of the days and i don't want to keep this blog on hiatus just because of that. anyway, to thank you for your patience with me, i give you some nail porn! these are a few manies i've been rocking recently. enjoy!!!

 this was 2 coats of OPI- got a date to-knight and one coat of Wet n Wild- sparked. the pinkie has an extra coat of OPI on.

this was my hunnies birthday mani, can you tell what his favorite colors are? lol!

please excuse the wear and tear. this was taken a few days afterwards.

left hand

right hand :}

this was an ELF skittle! these are from a set i got at Ross. hopefully i'll be doing full manis with a few of these colors soon!

last, but definitely not least one of my all time favorites (if not favorite!) polishes Zoya- Ivanka

i think this has to be the prettiest color i've worn all year! it made my nails look so slim and long! lol.

is there a color you would like to see more of? what do you think of posts with lots of pictures?

Mini Haul

Hey everyone! today i have a small,small haul from Ulta. since i moved a couple of months ago Ulta is now just 15 minutes away! yay!!! it wasn't far before, but with traffic it took about 30-40 minutes to get there. :{ anywhoooo, here is Essence-Choose me, OPI- fiercely fiona, and Essence- you belong to me.

i have yet to try choose me, but in the bottle it looks like a close dupe for a couple of colors, nonetheless it's still pretty. You belong to me is such a nice color. it's another one of those sort of bright pastels. lastly, fiercely fiona. i just can't say enough good things about this color. i will be including some picture of it at the end of the post.

here you can see the gold micro glitters in Choose me

when i first saw the OPI shrek collection, i thought i really only wanted to get who the shrek are you? and ogre the top blue, and i did get them. i loove those colors. lately i've been feeling like i want the whole collection, especially what's with the cattitude. so i saw fiercely fiona on sale and i snatched it up. 

i am so glad i did! i usually don't like to many yellows because they tend to make my hands look weird. since this has a bit of green to it, just a smidge, it't perfect for me! i wore this for 3 days! that is a looong time for me. everytime i looked at my nails i couldn't help but feel giddy inside :}

this was 3 coats, but i kinda liked how it looked with 2. a bit uneven at first, but everything evened out by the last coat.

         

this is a bit more color accurate, you can see the small amount of green pop.

overall i am ecstatic about my small haul. do you have any color from the shrek collection? what's your favorite yellow?

pink and pretty!

hey everyone. i know so many bloggers join in on the pink wednesday post, but i don't own to many pinks. it's just not a great color on me :{ ok lie, i own a FEW, most are "french" pinks though. very sheer and light. today i have for you a pink that is an ABSOLUTE must own. it's so dainty, and best of all, HOLOGRAPHIC.

let's see some pics!

this was outside on a somewhat cloudy day.

 look at that bottle. i just want to bathe in it.

can you say yummy?

this was 3 thin coats of OPI-DS Signature. NO TOPCOAT!! i'm sure most(if not all) of you know by now but most of the times topcoats dilute the prismatic effect :{ this was so creamy to apply.

Do you own any holographic polishes, which one is your favorite?

Mix and match blues!

Hey everyone! I feel like i'm finally not crazy since i now have some followers to talk to! lol.

anyways, one of my favorite things to do when i paint my nails is mix and match a color. well, sometimes they match! for todays post i used a couple of blue for my NOTD. have a look :}

                                

                              this is OPI ski teal we drop on my pinky, index, and thumb. it was fairly easy to apply, depending on how thick/thin you apply it you might only need 2 coats. Color Club factory girl on my ring finger. this was a pain in the rear to apply. it was very streaky, took 3 coats to apply but the pay off is so great. it's one of those "hey look at me! i'm bright but kinda pastel at the same time." love it. lastly is OPI simmer and shimmer on my middle finger(duh). *drool* who doesn't like a glitter? this was 3 thin coats.

 

and this is my left hand, i like to do them differently just to make it more fun.

 

Close up!

Do you ever mix and match your polishes? what's one of your fave color combos?
