China Glaze brings you Apocalypse Collection for Halloween 2014

Hi all!!! Today I have for you the Apocalypse Collection from China Glaze (sent to me for review). This is collection has 4 polishes, one glitter and a glow in the dark polish.  This is a great Halloween collection a little bit of something for everyone. All polish is showed without a top coat. Let's get started.
 
But of Corpse is a green matte finish polish with black glitter. I wasn't sure about this polish when I saw it in the bottle it was just a little ok...but really you get it on your nails and bam! But of Corpse is slightly textured polish that went on in 2 coats.

 This is what I'm wearing today. I stamped But of Corpse with MoYou plate Gothic 05 with black. I really love this polish and stamp together! I think they fit perfect!
 
 
Don't let the Dead Bite is a pink glitter in a milky base polish. I'm a little disappointed in this polish. I wanted so much more. I had to move the glitter around and I still have bald spots. This is two coats of Don't let the Dead Bite.
 


 When I saw the name for this polish I knew exactly what I wanted to show stamped over it. It turned out great!! Don't let the Dead Bite is stamped with black polish using stamping plate H08 from bundle monster.
 
 
Getting to Gnaw You is a black base with orange glitter. One size glitter unlike past polishes that had many size glitter. Getting to Gnaw You is really packed with the orange glitter.  This is two coats of Getting to Gnaw You. 
 
 
 
I love Your Guts is a pretty pink polish with small black glitter. Similar to But of Corpse with texture and matte finish. This is two coats of I love Your Guts. 
 

 I took a spin with the stamping for this one. Instead of stamping something similar like the others I took the name and turned it sarcastic and put a pin headed voodoo doll on my nails. I just thought it fit. I used bundle monster plate 413 stamped with black.
 
 
Rest in Pieces is a multi color glitter in a clear base. Gold holo, black little and BIG, and copper glitter! I'm not a big fan of these types of glitters it's just not my thing. This is three coats of RIP on naked nails so you could see the coverage... I had trouble with placement of the glitter even dabbing the glitter on I had bald patches. The big black glitter that's on my middle finger actually surprised me. So if you buy this I recommend storing it upside down so the larger glitter come to the top and makes it easier to scoop out.
 
 
 
Glow in the Dark is a beautiful glow in the dark. I'm showing 3 coats of gitd over white and on my index is black. China Glaze doesn't play when it comes to gitd. Gitd looked alright over black and it was nice but the glow over white just POPED! I used bundle Monster plate H07 for the webs on white I stamped in black and on black I stamped white. 
 

 

 
 Here they are! What do you think? I'd love to see what you'll be wearing for this Halloween. So tag us on Instagram @ssppatricia or @sspanne also share it on our facebook page.  I really liked these some more than others and some better with stamping done to them. You can't go wrong with the glow in the dark if you are looking for one.

Halloween cutie!

Hello! Today I have the winner for our contest and the guy that helped me pick that lucky lady!

 This is Elvis and he helped me pick our winner who is Debby L. Congrats to Debby!!!

I also have a quick Monster update for everyone! I thought I could give him another try with a twist. I started out with KleanColor Metallic Green (2 coats). I then cut up a sticker so I could cover the face with my silver crackle (Cherimoya 2012 Apocalypse) and not the hair area.
 I then painted the hair line with China Glaze Black Mesh (crackle) .
 I added eyeballs and a mouth (I don't like the mouth so much)....the eyes I did dots of black, white, then black again!

I think this turned out really well and it was easy to do!

What are you doing on your nails for Halloween?
Until next time! Enjoy your day!

My First Nails Inc.(Halloween)

HI all!!!! SO I have heard of Nails Inc. London for years and drooled over them for awhile. When I heard that Nails Inc. was coming to Sephora I jumped on the site so quickly...I found what I had searched for/wanted since late April.... Magnetic Polish! I said to myself (and a few friends) this is going to knock crackle out of the park! I received Trafalgar Square for my birthday ^_^ (with Houses of Parliament which is a to die for purple!). So today I have Trafalgar Square which is a wonderful "chrome" color! Now I have noticed that it is a little trial and error when it comes to doing the magnetic part of the nails but it turns out darn awesome when it is done correctly! Hit or miss this is just beautiful to me! 

Let's start with my ring finger I wanted this to be a Halloween run for a GAGA look I wanted to try out! So my ring finger has 3 coats (the polish is a little on the thin side) of Barielle Out-Grey-Geous which is a beautiful Silver with a shimmer of gold to it. then for my GaGa umph I added rhinestones in black and magenta! Now to my beauty TS was 2 coats just like the instructions say...one coat as a base then a thick coat over the base...do all your nails with the first color coat then one nail at a time you do a thick coat then immediately using the magnet (I held it there for the count of 30-50). And Viola! I know my index doesn't look right and I truly don't know what went wrong...but I will be wearing the purple (Houses of Parliament) next so we will see how that goes! Enough!!! on to the pictures!




Yes I know there isn't but a few but to get the sun to come out today I snapped a few very quickly and was surprised that I got 3 to show up! My inspiration was Lady GaGa's Born This Way album cover.
