Summer Days!

Hi all a quick post for today to show you what I'm wearing! I did a sponge manicure on my ring finger using (tip of my nails to my cuticle) Jace (which I'm wearing on my other fingers also), Talia, Serenity, and Nana. I then hand painted a palm tree. I was really happy with the way this turned out! I did have a bit of green (Jace) on the bottom of the picture but it's a bit hard to see. I feel really summery with this manicure and I wish I was on the beach right now just relaxing!
 
 
 
 
I hope everyone has a wonderful day.

Pretty in Isa!


Hi all a quick post to show you what I'm wearing today. I have on Isa from Zoya's Paradise Sun collection (two coats). I then decided (because I was in the mood) to stamp over Isa with MoYou Princess 10 (plate) in Konad Pink. I really like how this turned out!
 
 
I hope everyone has a great day!

Paradise Sun from Zoya

Hi all I'm back today to show you the rest of Zoya's 2015 Summer collection Paradise Sun (that I was sent for review). These six polishes have a micronized metallic pearl shine in them. It's a really nice shimmer! I had staining (and it wasn't that much) only with one of these polishes. All of these are bright and very summery colors! Let's check them out.
 
 
 
Aphroite is a beautiful bright red that has a multi color shimmer or "flash" as Zoya calls it. This is three coats of Aphroite. I had a little bit of visible nail line so I added the extra coat to be safe when I wore it. Aphroite is a warm tone polish.

 Genesis is a "crystalline" white. I didn't care for her, the formula was a little wonky (which went on in three coats). I like the shimmer in this one (it's "designed to look like diamond dust") but this polish just didn't wow me. Genesis is a cool tone polish.

 Isa is a beautiful indigo with an aqua "flash". I loved Isa and was happy that she went on in two coats. Perfect color for summer and pool parties! Isa is a cool tone polish.



 Mae is magenta. This color is a great beach color...Bright, fun and shimmery! Mae went on in two coats and is a warm tone polish.

 Oceane is a true turquoise. This polish reminds me of the ocean...nothing but miles of water and beaches! So perfectly named. Oceane is a warm tone polish that went on in two coats.

 Selene is a true teal. Selene was made to be a mermaids tail! I did have a little staining with Selene but she was worth it (and it wasn't to hard to clean it up). Selene is a warm tone polish that went on in two coats!
 
I think Zoya hit it out of the park with these six polishes. Bright, fun and very summery colors. I love the micronized metallic pearl that is in these polishes as it makes everyone shine.
 
If you are looking to find the perfect color for your skin tone Zoya has a video on their youtube channel you might want to check out!

Island Fun with Zoya

Hi all today I have for you Zoya's Island Fun Collection (that I was sent for review). There is two parts of Zoya's 2015 summer collection 6 creams that are Island Fun and 6 Shimmers that are Paradise Sun (that I will show you tomorrow).  I liked all the colors from Island Fun but I found them a bit dark for summer then what I'm used to.  All of these pictures are showing two coats of polish with no top coat. A few of these stained my nails so much so I had to do a whitening bubble dip on my nails (twice!). Other than staining I found these colors nice and they had a great formula. Let's get started!

 
Cecilia is a teal cream. I had a staining problem with Cecilia so next time I use it I probably will double base it before it goes on. Cecilia is warm tone polish.

 Demetria is a nice poppy red cream. Demetria is a warm tone polish. I like reds I do but for me they seem so flashy! I've said before it's almost distracting to me to have red on my nails. Demetria might make me get over this as she is so pretty!

 Jace is a modern tropical green. When I saw Jace I thought oh it's almost a granny smith apple color. Nope dried darker than I thought. So a dark granny smith apple color. Jace is a warm tone polish.


 Nana is a deep fuchsia. Nana would make it on my wear it for summer list! I think she is a bright and fun color. Nana is a warm tone polish.

 Serenity is a great purple. I can't believe my camera loved me enough to let me show you this polish!  Serenity is a cool tone polish.

 Talia is a turquoise cream. Here is my other staining problem polish. I will probably throw on two coats of base coat and call it a day when I wear this again. Talia is a cool tone polish.
 
If you are looking to find the perfect color for your skin tone Zoya has a video on their youtube channel you might want to check out!
 
I like these just maybe for a late summer (my opinion) for my nails...I just need BRIGHTS right now. I love the formula and finish on these as always! Watch for tomorrow for the second part of the summer collection Paradise Sun.

Just a neon kind of day!


Hi all today's post is a quick one...I am wearing right now a sponged/gradient manicure. I used three wonderful neon polishes from Salon Perfect. I used Oh Snap!, Mer-Made of Money and Purple Pop! I stamped with a white polish and used Bundle Monster Plate BM 404. My base color was a white from Salon Perfect called Sugar Cube which is a great white and really made the neon colors pop!
 
 



I really liked how this turned out! I think I'll be doing more gradients in the future! Have a great day!

Sister Saturday!

Hi all today is Sister Saturday for Anne and I over on Instagram. You can find Anne HERE and me HERE. Here is my look for today...I just wanted to add a bit of stamping to it! I really love how this turned out.

 So this week was a Radial Gradient. I used Zoya Ali, Pippa, and Robyn.



 I then took my new stamping plate from Born Pretty (plate BP-52) and stamped my nails (using Salon Perfect Sugar Cube).
 
I'm really happy with the way this turned out! I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend.

Neon Pop from Salon Perfect

Hi all today I have for you Salon Perfect's Neon Pop! (sent to me for review). These five colors are only here for a limited time and are available now at your local Walmart.  Anne reviewed the core line of Salon Perfect's Neon Pop last year you can check those out here and here.
With neon polishes I usually wear a white base so the polish pops more as you will see most of these with the exception of one looks almost if not the same with out white as an undie.  In all the pictures I used the white base on my RING finger only. I also used Salon Perfect's crystal clear top coat in all of these swatches...A really good top coat in my opinion dries quick and gives a nice shine! Let's take a look at these neon polishes!

Copacabana Girl is a nice coral neon that has a purple shimmer. I used two coats on my ring finger and three on the rest of my fingers.

Mer-Made Of Money is a creamy bright teal that went on in three coats to cover completely and two coats over white.

 Oh Snap! is a very neon rose pink that went on in three coats for full coverage and two coats over white. You can tell a slight difference on my ring finger in the picture but in real life I couldn't see one.


 Purple Pop! is a bright purple that went on in three coats for full coverage and two over white.

 Wrapped Around My Pink-y is a neon pink jelly. This is the one that looks different with the white (which is two coats over white and three on it's own).  Such a nice summer color!

So if you decide to use these over white or by themselves they all had good applications. Good dry time like with all neon polishes they usually dry quick. I think they are perfect for summer and so is the core line of neon polishes from Salon Perfect! You have one shimmer, three creams and one jelly so a little bit of everything.
You can find these now at a Walmart near you! You can also find Salon Perfect's web page here, Facebook, Pinterest and Instagram.
 
I hope everyone has a nice day and I leave you with a Group Shot!
