I needed a fast July 4th mani because today through Saturday I’m painting my whole downstairs! From beige to gray! So USA is a Nine Zero Lacquer white crelly with red and blue glitters. Nine Zero crellys are so great, I do 3 coats to make the base nice and white (Jess, who makes Nine… Read More Try Another Thursday- Nine Zero USA
I have had this for awhile, Vapid Lacquer did a My Little Pony collection last spring (2018), and I picked this one up, Easy As Pie. It’s a gorgeous delicate pink. This is 3 coats. I adore the shimmer in this polish. The top coat really brings that out. The formula was so easy, as… Read More Try it Tuesday (on a Wednesday!!)- Vapid Lacquer Easy As Pie
This Rainbow Brights Shimmers collection came out in 2015 (and I think was re-released in 2016 maybe? I bought the whole collection and never wore them! So here they are. They are still on their website, Fair Maiden Polish, and I highly recommend them! The red is Daring. Neon red can be hard to do,… Read More Fair Maiden Rainbow Brights Shimmers!
This is a cool thermal from Don Deeva that shifts from a gray to a black, with flakies! The formula was fine, 3 coats to build up the flakies. I wish the thermal shift was a little more more of a contrast. Here’s the darker color, it did get really black when I forced the… Read More Try Another Thursday- Don Deeva Thirst ‘n Howl
So this was a May 2018 Polish Pickup polish, the theme was 1990s. I actually didn’t pick it up then, I had to choose between that and Anchor and Heart Ironic, and I picked that one up instead, but totally regretted not getting Beep Me! So when I saw it in a destash, I had… Read More Try it Tuesday- Night Owl Lacquer Beep Me!
I wanted to try a Zoya and grabbed one randomly out of my Zoya drawer, and it was Journey! It’s a shimmery red/orange polish. The formula was divine! And the color- gorgeous! I did 3 coats. Zoya has lots of sales and promos (especially around Earth Day and Black Friday), and are consistently awesome. This… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Zoya Journey
Surf’s up, dude! This is such a fun summer polish from Different Dimension! It’s a white based crelly with hot pink, blue and yellow round and square glitters. It looks a little lumpy here, I should have put a second coat of top coat on to smooth it all out- I normally do put 2… Read More Try Another Thursday- Different Dimension Surf’s Up
Phoebe Moon of Moon Shine Mani recently had a mystery sale, and you could pick what you wanted and she would ~try~ to accommodate. So I wanted Blueberry Ice Queen and Honor’s Snow Day, and I got both! Blueberry Ice Queen on the left, Honor’s Snow Day on the right. I can’t wait to wear… Read More Nail Mail- Moon Shine Mani mysteries
HOT PINK FLAKIES!!! So it’s tradition for me that whenever I go on vacation, I wear some sort of hot pink nails. My parents, kids and I went to Charleston, SC, and I wore Chaos and Crocodiles Ambush. Isn’t it gorgeous! It was part of their Rogue Agents collection in February 2018. Chaos and Crocodiles… Read More Try it Tuesday- Chaos and Crocodiles Ambush
Doesn’t OPI do hot pink well? Here is another gorgeous one- La-Paz-itively Hot. I can’t for the life of me (and a thorough Google search) figure out what collection it’s from! I did discover it’s from 2010ish- and there’s a shiny and a matte version. This is the shiny version. This was 3 coats, and… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- OPI La-Paz-itively Hot
