Hologram with Techno Teal

What I have for you today is the beautiful Hologram from the Tronica collection. I used 3 thin coats of Hologram plus my top and bottom coats. It dried quick to! I think for me Hologram alone was a bit to much so I added Techno Teal with the help of Bundle Monster plate 19 and loved it so much more...here are the pictures!





I had to double stamp my thumb because bundle monster makes small full nail designs but it turned out alright for me...


Mmmm holo-goodness! I just love Techno Teal so much that it was had not to pick this when I first got the colors because I knew I wouldn't want to take it off! I do have a haul post up next since I picked up a few more things on Friday (got laser lime!)...plus I have been trying to come up with nail designs for a contest so I will have those also..
So tell me how do you like Hologram? Is it holo-y enough for you?
Until next time Ladies enjoy your day!

Tronica

Hello Lovely Ladies today I have for you 2 colors from China Glaze Tronica Collection Hyper Haute and Electra Magenta. While I was out Saturday I thought I would run into Sally Beauty to see if I could find the colors I wanted from the Tronica collection. I found all the colors but decided to only pick up the 7 I wanted plus two from FingerPaints. The colors I picked up from Tronica are Hyper Haute, Electra Magenta, Hologram, Gamer Glam, Virtual Violet, High Def, and Techno Teal (I keep thinking I should have gotten laser lime one also). On to the pictures! Hyper Haute is the base color (2 coats and fast drying!) then a quick line of tape and put on Electra Magenta (2 coats)






I'm showing this one because while looking down at my nails the TV flashed and showed off the holo. So I quickly grabbed my camera and a flash light trying to create the look again (10-15 pictures later).


So pretty!
I did a skittle manicure (and I couldn't take my eyes off the colors turning them every way so the sun would hit them and make them shine!) when I first got them and couldn't believe how fast they dried!
Hyper Haute is a raspberry pink holo and Electra Magenta is a pink that has a purple touch to it! Tronica is the collection I was most looking forward to for months and put myself on a ban to not buy any polish so I could get these and they are so worth it in my opinion! I just need a bit more sun and I'll be good to go!
Did you Ladies get any of the Tronica Collection?
Do you have a favorite color or a color you want to see from what I have?
Until next time Ladies I hope you enjoy your day!

Pink Matrix

Pink Matrix that is what my brother called this look...I started off with a base pink under Kleancolor Pink Holo..then added China Glaze Cracked Concrete and a little fimo flower which I'm not sure if I like or not, half the time I like it the other half I don't. Here are the pictures...





Kleancolor Pink Holo isn't 3 free and let me tell you the smell with these (I have 3 or 4) is pretty bad even with the windows open.
Let me know what you think would you wear a polish that has the big 3 or would you rather go with a polish that is big 3 free?
Until next time Ladies take care!

Haul and Crackle!

When Sally Beauty announced that they had Crackle online I knew that was pretty much the only place I would be able to get it since out of the 3 stores I have around me only one might get it but wouldn't keep it long. So this is my haul from them... China Galze Crackle in Broken Hearted, Cracked Concrete, and Black Mesh, a base coat, some fimo fruit and flowers..here is a picture. Now since I knew that I was going to be getting crackle today I painted my niece (who is 12) and my nails. Now K's favorite color picks of my polish are usually some of my brightest colors and she went right to China Glaze In the Lime Light (2 coats). So today I showed her how to use the Crackle.."you have to be fast, and that she could go in any direction if she wanted" so she told me "I get it I get it".. so I handed over her own bottle of Black Mesh and let her go to town. This is how her nails look!

Didn't she do a great job?! I think it looks GREAT! Love the green and black together. K told me it was "easy to use" and it's "Zebra like patterns are cool" !
Now for me! I put on Zoya Harlow which is a gorgeous matte "plum rose". I did know I was going to like it matte but I didn't know I was going to LOVE it with a top coat! Here are the pictures!




Isn't she beautiful? By today though it was chipping :( but I wasn't so sad because I knew I would get my Crackle today and slap that on it! Just look how pretty Harlow Mesh is!
I really like the look of this and can't wait to try the other crackles!

I have a quick story I was telling my Mom about this Crackle polish a few weeks back but calling it by Shatter and describing it to her and said that is was called by crackle in the 90's (???not sure on that) which was when she interrupted me with "crackle oh I remember that" *insert a small shocked face from me* and we both tried to remember when it came out (we figure the late 90's) and laughed about it!
Please tell me what you think I would love to hear feedback!
Until next time ladies!
