One Big Post

Hey ladies! So, I've finally got my blog set up for Bloglovin. If you follow me via GFC, please subscribe via Bloglovin begore Google discontinues Google Reader. I hope all of you will continue along with me on my nail escapades. ^_^

I have 3 manis from last week to show you. I'll start with my first spun sugar mani. The first time I used Zoya Yara, I didn't even begin to do it justice in describing how gorgeous this polish is. It's olive green with gold, silver and green shimmer. So much more than it seems.

I used Butter London All Hail the Queen for the spinning.

I also tried the water spotted technique. This one was a little harder than I expected. Trying to get consistent spots was the biggest challenge. A few of the nails looked good, like my ring finger in this pic. Most of them, however, looked more like acid wash jeans. That being said, it would make great nail art on it's own if you used a white base to make it look like those funky 80s jeans. Haha. But I did say I'd share my fails too so...

Water Spotted Nail Art Semi Fail? ^^



Last, just a simple glitter gradient with a Pure Ice glitter, Cheatin, that I hadn't tried yet.

Well, that's all for now. Thanks for sticking around. I hope to see you all via Bloglovin. ^_~

Girly Swatch

Hey everyone. I hope your week has been great thus far. If not, well, it's almost over. (^_^;) Today is just a quick swatch post of Revlon Girly. I've had this for months now and I can't believe I haven't tried it til now. The base is pretty sheer so I showed it with and without undies. The undies are Ulta Vintage Violet.

And with a matte finish:





I love Vintage Violet for undies since I'm not a super pink type. This has just the right touch of a purple tone for me. What do you think?

Well that's all for today. See ya later. ^_^
