My Mom loves this!

Hi all today I have for you #4 from born pretty (with nude as a base). Now originally this would be red but as I was using nude as a base it came out this beautiful pink...that when I showed off the finish product my Mom said she LOVED IT! 



I then had to add a little Pat flair to this! Purple is my favorite color and I really wanted to incorporate it into this look. I chose to use KleanColor Metallic Purple using LLC-A for my stamp. 


I hope you liked today's look. It really is a favorite manicure of mine. 
I hope you have a wonderful day.

Gamer Girl

Hi all today I have for you Born Pretty's #7 holographic. #7 is a sea foam green that is really pretty but not great for one to two coats without visible nail lines...I did use nude as a base color for that very reason. 



Here is how I stamped it. I used KleanColor Mettalic Black and Mettalic Green.


I loved this! I'm a gamer chick...I play many games and as soon as I saw this plate I knew it was perfect for me.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Hi everyone and happy thanksgiving. Today I'm showing you Born Pretty's orange holo (born pretty has these numbered) # 5 . I started with one coat of a nude and then added two coats of #5 . I know I have said this already but adding the nude under the color does change the color but I just want you to be aware.  Here is this lovely orange holographic by born pretty. 



I really like the stamp I added to this it made it feel very fall. I stamped this with KleanColor Metallic Orange and Metallic Green. The stamped I used was Bundle Monster BM- H11.

I wanted to thank you our readers for taking the time and reading on our blog. 
I hope everyone that is celebrating Thanksgiving and all of you that aren't have a wonderful day.

Love Birds

Hi all today I have for you born pretty holo #10 (on top of a nude base). I used two coats of #10 which I love on top of the nude polish. 



Then I stamped this beauty using KleanColor Metallic Sapphire and plate BM H17 from bundle monster. 


Very blingy and pretty. I really love this color and the stamp together. I hope this chases the Monday blues away. Have a lovely day!

Birthday

Hi all today I have for you a look I wore over the weekend for a birthday get together for my niece. This is a born pretty purple holographic with a nude base coat because I didn't want put on to many coats and it seemed a little thin. So I grabbed a nude did one coats then two coats of the purple. Such a beautiful purple!


Of course since it was for her birthday I did multi color ballons with KleanColors.....the KC's look holographic also! 

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. 
Thanks for checking out today's post!

Zoya Touch Collection! (picture heavy)

Hello Ladies today I have for you Zoya's Touch Collection that was sent to me for review. The collection is made up of 3 nude cream colors - Pandora, Shay, Minka - each having a touch of silver metallic shimmer. So let's get started! *In all the swatch photos I have 3 thin coats of polish without top and bottom coats.*

First up is the Trio together from left to right Shay, Minka, and Pandora they seem very similar when I first saw them but getting them on my nails I can see the difference.

Pandora is for cool skin color (a nice video to figure out your skin tone) and is described as a "beige nude with blue and mauve undertones and a hint of pearly shimmer". I think this is the perfect nude for my skin tone!

Next up is Minka! Minka is described as "a pale milky beige nude with yellow undertones and a hint of pearly shimmer, especially flattering on skin with neutral and olive skin tones".

Last but not least is Shay! Shay is described as "a dense, fleshy light peach with slight orange-red undertones and a hint of pearly silver shimmer". Shay compliments warm - neutral skin tones.

Here is my final picture with all 3 colors next to each other on my cool skin tone. From Left to right: Minka, Shay, Pandora.
Now out of habit like I stated before I polished my nails with 3 thin coats. With any Metallic shade of polish you will see a bit of streaks which I don't mind that much and with these since they are a cream polish with a hint of metallic I really think the streaks are toned down. My thoughts on each are:
Shay- is a great color but just not right for my skin tone but I liked it. It brings out the yellow in the polish when put up next to my skin tone a little to much for my liking.
Minka- is also nice and I liked the look on me. It seemed neutral enough that I think I can get away with wearing it because of the peachy tint to it.
Pandora- happened to be my favorite of the bunch I think it goes very well with my skin tone. I really can't wait to wear this out!

I think everyone will be happy if searching Zoya for a nude color! Something for everyone and as with all Zoya polish I own the formula is really great! The added silver shimmer turns a nude into a NUDE! I like the shimmer added I think it really spices the colors up but not to much that you couldn't wear it to work or a job interview.
