Orly Fresh

Today I am posting a swatch of one of the New Orly Happy Go Lucky collection. This one is called "Fresh"

I went to Waterfest '17 this weekend in New Jersey. It's an Audi/VW car show my boyfriend was dying to go. They had this BMW with green wheel that matched my nails so I had to take a picture with it.

The other picture is on my boyfriends computer so I can't access it since he's home. But this color reminded me exactly of green apples :)

The formula was amazing, color is beautiful, and it lasted 5 days with BARELY a chip. I didn't even add extra topcoats like we're supposed tot.

Sally Hansen Dianthus and Freehand design

Today I am showing you a swatch by Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure- Dianthus. This is a beautiful reddish pink color. I did not like how it reminded me of melted plastic though when I was applying. These usually chip fast on me, but I only wore for a day before I added a design. I did have tipwear though from doing filing at work.











I got this at Ocean State Job Lot for two dollars. I wouldn't pay for the full seven dollars though, so I feel much better. I didn't mind spending the two dollars.








I actually did this design myself. I used China Glaze "Towel Boy Toy" for the blue stripe and then Art Deco strippers for the silver glitter and black stripe. Then I reused the Sally Hansen color for the pink dots.

Revlon - Ocean Breeze

I am showing another swatch today. It is Revlon - Ocean Breeze. It is one of the scented polish's. Though it only kinda smells like an ocean breeze. Kinda mixed with Febreeze too lol. Nice application but it does have brushstrokes. Not a bad polish but not one of my favorites either.

Heli-Yum China Glaze

Today is just a simple post. I have on China Glaze 'Heli-Yum" I love this color and have been wanting it for such a long time. It's very opaque and went on so smooth. I love it. Sorry for short nails I had to cut them all from going quahogging (sp?) this past week :)

HTML Help?

Hey guys I have a quick question. I was trying to post an ad and when I tried to link the logo to their site, blogger likes to add my site also into the link even though I didn't add it. How do I add links to other sites so people can click on them and get them to work?

4th of July manicures!

Today I have two manicure's I will be showing you. Both I used for the 4th of July.

This first one was actually inspired by Robin Moses Nail Art. This lady has the most amazing youtube tutorials and some amazing designs! Should check her out!!!


The blue base was China Glaze "Rodeo Fanatic". I only put on one coat though. Then I used nail stripers I found at Sally's called "Stripe Rite" For the American flag though I used "Monroes Red" by ORLY. Again the rest of the nail was nail stripers.

This next one was abstract designing using the Same red ORLY Polish and stripers, but also used Sally Hansen "Blue Me Away".









Sorry for lack of posts, I have a week off of work and I am fully taking advantage of it!!!!
