Milani: Rad Purple

I'm generally not a lover of Neons, but Milani Rad Purple is amazing. I would have never given it a try if I had not seen it posted on Megan Chair's blog first (a link to her amazing blog is on the left):


Here it is in direct sun:

China Glaze: Street Racing

I really loved the Retro Diva line from China Glaze. There were some awesome earthy colors in there! I think Stroll is one of my all time favorites ♥ Here is Street Racing:


and of course I had to throw some Konad at it! LOL.

Fauxnad french mani

I got my plates in from Bundle Monster and had to try them out! I I had a real hard time using non-Konad polish (I must have tried four different colors/brands), I couldn't get the image to pick up on the stamper, so I just used the only Konad brand polish I had (white). This is plate BM 16:


dare my Wild Heart.....

The wild heart is from plate BM 03. The images were nice and crisp using the Konad white polish.

LA Girls: Copper + Konad

I A D O R E today's notd! The base color is LA Girls in Copper, which has a metallic shine to it:


Than I used Konad plate M57 with Wet n Wild Black Creme:

I love it! I know what mani I'll be wearing when I take my niece to the zoo later in the year, how fun!

I'd never had luck using WnW with the Konad before, but I think the trick was using a new bottle? Whatever it was, it worked perfectly. I'm actually looking forward to using more WnW colors. I've only ever Konaded using black or white (I know, boring, right??)

Nfu Oh holos

Today's NOTD is Nfu Oh 62, which is a subtle pink color:


Then I tipped it with Nfu Oh 66 (silver):


Both picks were taken in direct sunlight. I love Nfu Oh's ♥

Sally Hansen Hidden Treasure

Yesterday's NOTD was Sally Hansen's Hidden Treasure over Revlon Dark Pleasures in Patent Leather:



I tracked this baby down at Walgreens. My husband really liked this one 8-)

Fauxnad Dragon

Plate B22


I used the dragon image along with some stars from the moon image:

Caribbean Mani: take 1

So I have a Caribbean vacation coming up in a couple of months and this was a trail mani for it. Not a winner, but it was fun for a couple of days....

I used Toma Glitter mood changing polish in "Green Glitter to Gold Glitter". Sadly, it doesn't change colors anymore, but i sill love it ♥. The tips are China Glaze Atlantis.

French Manicure

Today's NOTD is a french manicure. I used scotch tape as a guide and added white, with a silver stripe underneath, and topped it with Nichole by OPI's Imagine If...

OPI: Quarter of a Cent-Cherry

OPI's Quarter of a Cent-Cherry is an awesome red, not really a jelly, but not a cream. It's kinda in between. I'm a sucker for a good red polish!

I topped the red with Nichole by OPI's Imagine If... It's a fleck-y silver holo, reminiscent of China Glaze Kaleidoscope or the new Milani holos.


No sunlight today, so I wasn't able to get a good shot of the holo effect, but you get the idea :)
