Lush Lacquer in Clowning Around!!!!

I thought I would start swatching my Lush Lacquer colors I bought a few weeks ago. I am starting off with Clowning around, which is a clear base packed with neon sparkles! Now what I love about these glitters is that they are kind of see through as well, which is neat because you get a blue and a yellow and it make green on my nails! AWESOME! 
I painted my nails first with whats with the cattitude by OPI. I wanted a fun light blue to be the base for these perfect colors. I applied 2 coats of glitter and voila! Awesomeness. 

You can find this color at Lexi and Karin's Etsy store here. I bought the polish for $9.41 but the price varies depending on your country. 

Get this for your collection! This is an instant classic for me!




Personelle Nail Stickers in Plaid

Well I've been quite obsessed with nail stickers these past few weeks and  I found some cheap ones at the local pharmacy near my home. Well let me start off with... The picture is probably the only nice thing about them! First off, they were all too small for my nails. Plus they were too rounded to even look normal on my fingers! Next, I washed a clients hair and when I was done, I wiped my hands off on a towel and off went two of them!!! CRAP! Even with a nice top coat on top they still wiped off easily. before I started my client I peeled them all off. Oh well. I got a cute picture for my blog!

Kiss Nail Dress in peacock feather print

Hello my friends! Well today I have for you a different strip manicure for you from Kiss! I chose the peacock feather pattern and tear are exactly the same as you would do the Sally Hansen ones. Now the only difference I felt with these is that they are a little thicker then Sally's and they are more like a sticker then anything! These do not harden like the nail effects. When you want to remove these you just peel them off. No need for remover. That was the great part! They do leave a little residue of the glue on the nail but I just rubbed my finger over it and it disappeared. Since they are more sticker like I am testing it out in a ziplock bag. I wonder if I can keep the excess ones longer? Anyway I absolutely loved the patterns that this brand has and I will definitely be using them again! Check them out!
Walmart seems to be the cheapest place to buy them but I found that uniprix had the bigger variety!

Sally Hansen Salon Effects in Wild Child

Hey! I haven't been posting this week because I am trying out the Sally Hansen Salon Effect stick ons in zebra ( wild child is the proper name)!! These are awesome! I saw them and wanted them for my toes but the more I was playing with them the more I realized I had enough for my fingers as well. The other reason I haven't posted this week was because they were suppose to last up to 10 days. So I wanted to challenge them and see if that's true. None of them popped off but they sure did chip. I put them on Friday night and by Monday they were chipping. BUT being a hairdresser I'm in water a lot so I think that wasn't so bad. The ones on my toes however are still as fresh as day one. Super sexy! I recommend anyone going on vacation who wants a super cool pedi to apply these! I'm definitely going to be trying these out again!
I would think Walmart would be the cheapest place to get them, however I bought mine at uniprix for 9.99$.

Do check them out!!!

Neons by LushLacquer!!!

I bought the whole line of Neons from my favorite Etsy store - LushLacquer. There were a total of six in the new line they made and they are amazing!!! 

First we will start off with Neon Lights!


This one is a white opaque base packed with hexagonal neon glitters! It contains neon pink, neon yellow, neon orange and neon green. This is one awesome color!!! 

Next we have Haywire! 


Like the first one I just showed you, Haywire also has a white opaque base to it. This polish has hexagonal and bar glitter crammed in that bottle!!! There is neon pink, neon yellow, neon green, neon orange, neon purple and neon blue scattered throughout this color combination.

Next in line is Green Geenie!

This polish is a pale lime green opaque base with tons of colorful rainbow like hexagonal glitter! This is a beautiful color! 

Next is I Lost My Marbles!


This is just such a cute pink it reminds me of cotton candy! With sprinkles!!!  This polish is a pink opaque base, which covers pretty well in two coats. Again it is jam packed with rainbow bright hexagonal glitter. 

Next we have Blue Gypsy!


This color I just adore! Its a Blue jelly base nail polish with awesome shapes of glitter! You cant see it in my picture but there are stars in this polish! AWESOME!!! I love different shapes in my glitter. This color also has giant orange circles as well. This one is a must! 

And finally last but not least we have Clowning Around!


This my friends is a clear base polish with all those yummy glitters we were seeing in the other colors! This is perfect if you have a awesome base color of your own and you want to pizzazz it up with some neons! 

All in all I am super happy with my purchase! I definitely recommend that you check out Karin and Lexi's store at Etsy. The link again is LushLacquer.


I'll be sure to post my swatches as soon as I have tried them all!!!

Eurso Euro...

I quickly did my nails at work yesterday because I was stepping out with my boyfriend and his boss and co-worker for a concert at Place des Arts. We had a great time! There was a cocktail before hand where we had some wine, and before you know it we were ushered in to the hall for the symphony. Even though the singing was in french I really did enjoy the instruments. 

Anyway my classy fingernails were painted Eurso Euro by OPI. 

Check them out! Its such a beautiful color blue! 



Flashy Toes!

Sorry everyone that I haven't posted in a while, I do my nails, take my pictures and then just realize its time for bed and I start that all over again the next day!!!
So I do have a few posts to do today. The first one is a funky Toe Nail design I recently tried. I received some nail glue when I ordered from Bornprettystore.com and I thought that I would glue some jewels to my toes.


The base color that I chose for my toes was Ogre the top blue from OPI. With a name like that you know for sure its from the Shrek line! 
The Rhinestones that I placed on top were dark blue, light blue, pale yellow, pale green and a few silver ones. I dumped out way too many for my toes so I will have to get back to those and separate them. 

Anyway, its great to be back! have a great evening! 


P.S. Sorry for my funny looking toes! I don't usually like to show them! haha

Colorful polka dots!

Good morning everyone! Just sitting in the parking lot at work waiting for the boss to show to open up, so I thought I'd post some new pictures!
I have pool party as a base from china glaze with four different color polka dots. I focused them more on the side of the nails.
Now I didn't want to do the same for my left hand so I chose some different blues. I thought this would be where I try out the blue from the Mariah Carey line in the sand. I have to say it sparkles more then the purple. It's the nicer one :) well off to work! Have a great day everyone!
