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?

thanks for stopping by!!!!!!

my little nails!

hey everyone! i recently cut down my nails because they were getting to that point that everything seemed to hit/pull them. anywhooooo, i love having shorter nails much more than longer ones, but sometimes colors look better with a certain length. (in my opinion) Today i have a color that looks absolutely gorgeous with small nails (and longer nails too!) its China Glaze- Secret Peri-wink-le. it's sooo pretty!
  these pictures are a bit horrendous as it would always show up very blue!
it has a drop more of purple in real life!

this was 3 very thin coats.now i see it could've used one more coat.
what a streakfest! lol

annnnnd then i tried some half moons.
please don't laugh at my attempt, i swear it looked good in person! lolol!
this is China Glaze- Electra Magenta, pretty holo!

do you guys ever get tired of your current length? have you tried doing a half moon mani? what's a color that you only wear with short/long nails?

Day 3- Yellow!

hey everyone, just a quick reminder that my giveaway ends this friday. eeeeeeee! i'm so excited, are you? i hope so! good luck to everyone, and to those who don't win this time, fear not! i see many more planned in the (near) future :} i just love sharing my love of polish (along with some polish) to those who are sweet enough to read this blog! so today i have China Glaze- Yellow Polka Dot Bikini. This is a super bright yellow neon.
i think it just might be my favorite neon. my mom says it looked like those neon reflector vests. i'm pretty sure that's not what they're called. lol
neons are pretty hard to capture so imagine this 100x brighter!this was 2 coats over white.
it dried to a satiny/matte finish. yet it was still so shiny!

anyways, i just wanted to say a big THANK YOU to NAIL DESIGNS!
i won her awesome giveaway and this baby was one of the prizes! i have so many more China Glaze polishes that i won ready to be swatched. 
CHECK OUT HER BLOG!!!!! TOTALLY AWESOME! & check out her perfect nails, so jealous!
p.s. could i have said neon anymore in this post? jeez
what's one of your favorite neons? have you won any giveaways?

My nails are on fiiiire!

hey everyone. how was your weekend? i'm hoping it was great :}
today i have for you Color Club- Koo-koo-cachoo (which is one of the polishes i will be giving away, new tho.)
buuuut, before i get to those pictures, i want to post this picture of my sisters nails. 
she had on a weird dead skin tone type color. i think it made her have skeleton hands. i suggested she put some sort of crackle/shatter/anything on it. she agreed and so i decided to add China Glaze Crackle in Concrete. 
i liked it a lot more in real life than how it comes out in the picture.

sooo, i am WARNING you that the next few pictures are blurry. since KKC is a neon, it's extremely hard to accurately capture in pictures. 
this is as close to the true color as i could get it.
this was 3 thin coats over white. easy neon to apply :}
it's more orange than in the pictures. i feel like it shows up a little bit coral in pictures.
OMGG, my nails are on fire!
ok, not really, but doesn't this look awesome?

have you guys ever had a polish that gave you strange looking hands? what do you think of neons?

Part 2!

So, here is the other post i mentioned!
This was a great find for me, i got this color at Sally's for $1.99!! how awesome is that?!?!?!


Here is the ever so lovely China Glaze- Blue Paradise
It was actually a little darker looking on my fingers.
Here it is with no flash, and a little bit of sunlight.

See? just not so foil-y looking. still absolutely gorgeous and a must have for any blue lovers, especially if you find it on sale!










Have you ever found a really awesome polish at an unbelievable price?
