Pink Wednesday, Pink and Gold with Elegance

Hi Everyone,  This week is moving quite rapidly it's already the middle of the week.  Again, Pink Wednesday with elegant colors of pink and gold.

 
Here is NOPI Don't Over Pink It, it's the perfect pink to be paired up with gold. The gold is Bettina Glamour Celebrate
 
 
 
After applying the pink and letting it dry I applied the gold on the right side of each nail.  It's simple yet elegant and appealing to the eyes.  Love, love, love this gold it is so sparkly and looks like real liquid gold can't wait to wear it alone.  I think I will wear it as my base and stamp over it, sounds exciting, eh?
 
I'll definitely be wearing this combo again.  What are your thoughts?
 
 




Until next time please have a great nail polish day. (✿◠‿◠)

Pink Wednesday, Leopard Print Nails

Hi Everyone,  Do you like animal prints?  Which ones? Leopard, Zebra, Giraffe just to name a few.  I love them in clothing, handbags, house accessories just about anything.  Today, I did leopard prints on my nails.  It's a fun and easy design to do and I plan on doing more.  They are really striking when they are done with various color bases and colored spots.


My base is Pure Ice Nude Beach which is a very pale pink creme.  The gold glitter is OPI Gift of Gold (2010 OPI Ulta Exclusive Winter Collection) it also has some red glitter in it. The black is Wet n Wild Ebony Hates Chris.  I achieved this lovely print by laying down the golden spots in random shapes with my dotting tool also with my dotting tool I outlined the spots with black it can't get any easier than that.    
 
I love my nails and I can't stop looking at them. 
 
What do you guys think? Have you tried leopard print nails?     





Until next time please have a great nail polish day. (✿◠‿◠)

OPI GoldenEye With A Design

Hello Everyone,

There have been a couple of golds that I really like this year and one of them is GoldenEye from the OPI Skyfall Bond 007 Collection.  Most times I'm not drawn to gold polish because they are too close to my skintone making them look blah on me.   Oh, but GoldenEye works for me.

GoldenEye is liquid gold in a bottle that shines.   On my middle finger I added on some black dots and on some of the dots I added GoldenEye in the middle of them.  I like the contrast it's an eye catcher.
 
Do you have a favorite gold polish you like to wear?

A Quick Nail Art Design

Have you every been in the middle of doing a nail design and got called right away to do something quick?  Well, it  happened to me while doing this nail art.  Hubby needed me right away.  I hurried and took a quick picture before I took off. Lol!

The pretty red with gold glitter is OPI The Spy Who Loved Me from the 2012 Skyfall Collection.  For my index finger I applied OPI The Gift Of Gold from the 2010 Ulta Exclusive Collection.  It's a glitter bomb that consist of gold and red glitter.  I used the brush and formed a "V" shape.  Then I used a striper polish in black and outlined the "V" shape.  That's as far as I got.  I think it's still cute on one finger.
 
  Now imagine my nails still wet what they looked like after I was done helping hubby. A messed up nail design. Lol! I'll be doing this again and hopefully with no disturbance.



Until next time please have a great nail polish day. (✿◠‿◠)

Indie Polish: SoFlaJo, Open All Night Swatches and Review

Hi Guys,

Today, I have a pretty iridescent green with golden glass flecks polish to show you.  It's from Jody's SoFlaJo Life's a Beach collection.  How fun does that sound?!  The name of this one is Open All Night.

SoFlaJo, Open All Night

   Here's a mini bottle shot and you can see the gorgeous golden glass flecks in it.

This polish is sheer, I used 3 coats and you still can see my visible nail line but, if your nails are short you wouldn't have this problem.

I think it would be great to layer it over black or apply some glitter over top of it. I'll show you some nail art over it tomorrow.

You can check out the rest of the collection on Jody's blog. They are for sale in 15mL and 5mL sizes on Jody's website or on Etsy. You can also keep up with SoFlaJo on Facebook!

Baby Shower Nails

Hello Ladies,

I'm so excited!  I'm going to be a first time Grand Mother...that's right little ole me.  Well, tomorrow is the baby shower.  My son/daughter-in-law is going to have a boy!!  I can't wait to see Bryson.  The colors chosen for the shower are blue, green, and brown I love these colors for a boy.  So, I decided to finally wear my Chanel Haute Chocolat.  It's a very pretty dark brown with a shimmer of gold in it.  It's dark but not so dark it looks black.  This polish launched October 2008.  I used two coats with topcoat NYC quick dry nail polish.  


Sorry, my middle fingernail broke right down in the flesh.  I tried to repair it don't want that sucker to snag off.  Ouch!


Ladies, have a great weekend!

A shimmer infused coin of perfection.  There are various colors of shimmer shown from the bottle silver, gold and green but not so visible on the nail.  Used 3 coats

Tranquil Tangerine
A bold, but wonderfully wearable, slice of juicy delight.  Put on your sunglasses I don't want to blind you! This is a bright beautiful golden shimmery orange.  Used 2 coats 

Bold Baby Blue
An aqua meets turquoise take on every boy's favorite color.  Silvery blue tone which looks almost like a foil on the nail.  Used 2 coats

Nurture Nude Pink
A delicate, damsel in distress barely there beautiful.  This is a great polish to wear going on a job interview or if your not in the mood for any color.  From the bottle it has a flash of pink shimmer but not shown on the nail.  Used 2 coats 

The formula on these are good and easy to apply. I wish there was a green in this collection.

A clean Palette

Good Morning,

I'm in a hurry! So what do I do?  I grabbed Essie Marshmallow and China Glaze White Cap from the Anchors Away Collection.  Marshmallow is not a stark white it's a soft white jelly.  The first 2 coats were streaky but no problem. I then added a 3rd coat which covered up the balled spots well.  (Sorry, I forgot to take a picture of Marshmallow alone).  I used one coat of White cap. 

Um, picture is blurry


These pictures doesn't give this look justice. White Cap is so sparkly it has gold, and subtle green shimmer in it.

What color do you put on when you're in a hurry?

Until next time please have a great nail polish day. (✿◠‿◠) Share/Bookmark

SH OverCoat Antique Gold

Good Morning,

It's all about the crackle.  SH Overcoat.  Pretty cleaver of Sally coming up with the name.  I like the square bottle too with the crackle lid.  The prices of these are pretty steep don't you think?  $7.99 Gesh!  Some Walgreen's have them for $6.99 and  Walmart has them priced at $6.24.  The other problem I have with these is the brush...why is the brush sooo tiny?!  It would have been nice if these had the same brushes as the Sally Hansen complete salon manicure ones.

 I like Antique Gold's formula.  The gold is so sparkly.  I haven't tried the others yet.

                                  Antique Gold
I don't think pictures show the true actual prettiness of crackles.  After I applied a topcoat it glistens and shines can't see it in the pictures though.



China Glaze Blue Iguana with SH Antique Gold Crackle

Did you grab any of the Overcoats?  Which ones?  Which ones do you like?
