Happy Halloween!!!

Hey everybody and Happy Halloween! Today is one of my favorite days of the year, a day where you can dress up, be anyone and just have fun! Pat showed you earlier her bloody mani and I wanted to share my mani for today and a few more that I did for fun.
Here is my mani, I like to call it Halloween Fright House.


The next one is a glow in the dark mani that looks like slime starting to drip from my nails.



Last but not least is the Black Cat mani.



I hope you have a safe and happy Halloween! Leave me a comment and let me know what you think of these manis and what you dressed up as and what is on your nails!

Happy Halloween Everybody!
Love,

13 Days of Halloween...Day 13 Bloody Good Time!

Hi all today is the last day of the 13 days of Halloween for us and I wanted to share with you one that can be used two different ways...To start off I used China Glaze's Rainbow, stamped with Astro Hot from Konad M73..then I used China Glaze White on White for tips. Now if you stopped here this could go with a Beauty Queen costume, Debutante costume, Princess costume and so on...(I wanted these to look as fake as possible for it). Second picture I added drips of Sally Hansen's Cardinal and a straw to blow the drips out to make it look like I used my nails to claw at something and things got bloody. This could be used for a Zombie girl, or a murderous beauty queen.... I did want the actual design to show through a bit more but over all I'm happy with how it turned out. 




Happy Halloween everyone! I hope you have a safe and fun evening.

13 Days of Halloween...Day 10 Skulls

 Hi all day 10 of Halloween has come so quickly...so today I have skulls from Bundle Monsters plate bm 413 stamped with KleanColor Metallic Fuschia. I started off with Zoya's Dove ,  I was just going to stamp it once on my ring finger but I liked it so much I couldn't leave it on just one finger so I decided to stamp all of them. I really like Dove with a matte top coat so I used Hard Candy's Matte-ly In Love on top (second picture).




What do you think? Are you ready for Halloween? What will you be wearing on your nails?

13 Days of Halloween...Day 8 I am Bat Girl

Hi all today I have for you a pretty cool Halloween nail design (one of my favorites that I have done). I started with a base of China Glaze Galactic Gray...with China Glaze OMG A UFO sponged on top. I then stamped it with black using Bundle Monster plate BM-H08 (from the holiday stamping set). You can see in the first picture more of the green and the holo of course was a little hard to capture. Here it is..



I really did love how this turned out. I hope you all like this look also. 
Have a great weekend everyone!

13 Days of Halloween 2013 ... Day 7

Hey everybody:) Day 7 of the 13 days of Halloween and I have a Wicked inspired mani for y'all.
So when I was sitting around thinking of ideas for Halloween, I thought maybe some kind of witch, and then while looking at movies to watch I saw Oz the Great and Powerful. Light bulb! I was so scared of that crazy witch in the Wizard of Oz when I was younger, what better way to celebrate Halloween than with a evil witch! So here is my mani inspired by Wicked!




And for those people out there who have no idea what I'm talking about here is the poster for Wicked.


This mani was harder than I thought it would be, but I love the way it turned out ♥. Leave me a comment and tell me what you think of this mani.

Happy Polishing Everyone!

13 Days of Halloween...Day 6 Spider-Man

Hi all today I have for you one of my favorite manicure's. I received this polish for review which you can find here.. I did a french manicure thinking of this manicure and of my nephew loving spider-man... so making it with Spider-Man colors I stamped it using Bundle Monster BM-H07 with white polish.



If I was to redo this I might use the thinner lines from stamp BM13 but I like how it turned out.
Thanks for checking it out :)

13 Days of Halloween 2013 ... Day 5

Hey everybody :) Today for day 5 of the 13 days of Halloween I have a acetone washed mani. I was looking at some jeans with my daughter the other day and she was talking about really light colored jeans ... "like back in your day, Mom" and it hit me! Acetone washed nails with maybe a cool face or something and then my son said why not try a skull .... DUH! So that is what I have for y'all today an acetone washed out mani with a skull!






I think this is one of the creepiest manis I've ever created and I love it!!!! Leave me a comment and tell me what you think of this mani.

Happy Polishing Everybody!

13 Days of Halloween 2013...Day 4 Dancing Bones

Hi all today I have for you is day four of the thirteen days of Halloween. I used Sally Hansen Loves Me Not as my base which is a lovely purple glitter polish. I stamped first with KleanColor Metallic Green and the line stamp from Bundle Monster's Create Your Own (2013) stamping set. I then used a white for the skeleton stamp also from Create Your Own stamping set. Here it is....



I couldn't fit the whole skeleton on my nails so I figured I would stamp them different ways...I see these as dancing. I hope you like these I was really happy with how they turned out.

13 Days of Halloween 2013...Day 2 China Glaze is having a ball...a Monster Ball

Hi all today I have for you three polishes sent to me for review from China Glaze's newest Halloween collection Monsters Ball.  All three I'll be showing are glitters lets get started. 

First up is Bat My Eyes. Bat My Eyes is a Black/olive base with gold glitter and bar in orange and green (that is the way it looked to me). It was really a great sparkle polish. This is three coats of Bat My Eyes. 



Howl You Doin' is a pretty purple jelly with fuchsia, purple glitter. This is 2 coats of Howl You Doin'. Now Purple is a favorite color of mine but I wanted this to be a bit more to me...I do like it but I just wish it BAM'ed a bit more. 



Now here is a great glitter I can get behind...This is Boo-gie Down. I wanted to show how many ways you could wear it so I started with China Glaze's White on White on my Index and Ring fingers, my middle finger has only Boo-gie Down on it, and on my pinkie finger has Cross Iron 360 on it. So this picture is showing one coat of Boo-gie Down which is large, medium, bar and small black glitter...medium copper glitter and medium white glitter. I have to add how much I love this over Orange it just says Halloween to me!!! 


I really liked all of these. Out of the three I received for review I have to say Boo-gie Down is my favorite to wear..I'm not a bar glitter girl but I have to say this is so perfect for Halloween I probably would have picked it up for myself when I found them at my Sally's. Thanks for reading everyone.  I hope you enjoy the rest of 13 Days of Halloween.
If you are looking for China Glaze you can find them on the web hereFacebookTwitterInstagram, and Pinterest.

Zoya Zenith Collection Review

Hey everybody :) Today I have the Zoya Winter-Holiday Collection Zenith (they sent me these for review), its hard to say holiday in October but yes it will be here sooner than we know! So if you want to get a jump on shopping this collection might just put a smile on that certain someones face ;)

Payton can be best described as a full-coverage, galactic cranberry with holographic glitter. I used this polish first and fell in love ♥ You could get away with one coat but I used two, I got more glitter coverage with two coats.

Wow look at that Holo Glitter!!!!
Mosheen can be best described as an astro ice blue topper, great for layering over other hues. Alone this polish looks very icy blue, kinda reminds me of artic blue... pretty. I'm still on the fence on this polish not sure its worth the extra work.

looking very icy!!!

Dream can best be described as a full-coverage, deep space blue with holographic glitter. This is also one that I just love ♥ I have to say this is my favorite out of the collection! When I saw this and wore it for a while it reminded me of the night sky and all the twinkling stars. 

Twinkle stars!!!

Seraphina can best be described as a full-coverage, Polaris silver metallic (shiny white). This polish was just not my cup of tea:( I had to put three coats on and still just didn't like the coverage or color. But the best way to think of this polish is snow for your nails?!

snowy 
  
Belinda can be best described as a full-coverage, cosmic purple metallic. This polish is beautiful!!!! And outside Belinda has a shimmer of blue and red...love ♥.

I hope you can see the shimmer, super pretty!

Here is Belinda with Mosheen on top. It looked like a icy purple.




Cassedy can best be described as a full-coverage, celestial pewter metallic. This polish looked like gun metal inside but outside it looked almost blue/green gun metal. It is pretty for the end of the year party just not sure it I would wear it before then.

this is outside, can you see that weird color?
 


So overall this collection is a great gift for that someone who loves polish but if your not into all of them just go for the ones you really like. I really think this collection hit the mark with all encompassing "holiday-winter" collection. So overall it a gold star in my book! Great job Zoya!
Leave me a comment and tell me what you think of this collection, and which one is your favorite.

As always Zoya polish is Big 5 Free, you can find more information and shop Zoya here http://www.zoya.com/ .

Seche Nail Lacquer Review

Hey everybody:) I finally got the Internet fixed at my house... so we are back in business! Today I have two polishes from Seche (they sent me these for review) to share with y'all.

The first polish is Cascade. Cascade is a mauve color that at first glance I thought no way, but it really surprised me on how pretty it looked on. This polish is a one coat polish that I think is great for that lady who wants to wear pink (just not too pink).



Versatile is a deep teal polish that I think is excellent for fall. I thought it might be to dark for me to wear on my fingernails but I was wrong, it is a perfect fall color. Again it went on in one coat and dried super fast.



Overall both these colors were great for fall, and I loved that they dried super fast. One thing I will say is with this polish you need to make sure to roll your polish and not shake it up, if you shake you will have bubbles everywhere.
Leave me a comment and tell me what you think of these two Seche Nail Lacquers.
