Franken


So the other day I created my new franken. I am loving the colour!!!
I also just came back from a shopping trip to buffalo and picked up some pure ice as well!!!
The combo of these two were fantastic and I never want to take it off hehe :)

The pure ice reflects the light, it is shimmery, and changes from blue to pink! Lovee!!!

Creation.



Good night all!
Sorry for the order of these photos.. My Blog keeps re arranging them on me! We will just have to deal with it haha. The other day, I found this L.A Colors breathless blue nail lacquer for a buck at the dollar store. I thought I would have liked it, but I was wrong. It was very watery, and such a faint colour! I was peeved, and almost threw it out! Thankfully, I had the bright idea to mix it with OPIs Jade is the New Black!!!
I quite enjoy the new colour!! My boyfriend helped me name it "toothpaste".. He said it looked like toothpaste smeared on the toilet paper LOL >_<...

As you can see, from my swatches on the toilet paper.. I used a blue first, just to show you the comparison from sky blue to the rest...
The second swatch in is the original Breathless Blue... As you can see, it is very very faint!
The third swatch corresponds with the photo of the L.A Colors with a hint of green in it.
The 4th colour is the final mixture of "toothpaste"
and finally, the last swatch is OPIs Jade is the new black.

I was not hoping for a huge colour change! I just wanted a deeper colour!!

China Glaze Fiji Fling. I had originally planned on using this under another colour, but it didnt turn out too well. This is a one coat application, and doesn't show its awesomeness. I love this always wet type of look. It is very shiny and awesome. Although the colour is not very unique, it is still a very nice colour!!!


Ohhhhh!!! I found the entire Island Escape Collection for 3 dollars each yesterday! I was super happy!!
This is Blue Iguana - China Glaze. This was two coats, and a very nice application.
The colour is an amazing blue, that glitters and shimmers when you look at it. The colour also shows its green shimmer and purple shimmer when you tilt, or see it under different lights. I found I couldnt only really see this while I was at work though, under the florescent lighting!

Either way, this is fantastic!!!!

Sorry for the mess.. I was having a moment apparently haha!

Yet again, I have a huge cut on my finger! Sorry guys, I sliced it open cutting a bagel today!! I wish I could go one picture without having a cut LOL!
Anyways,
This is my Sally Hansen nail prisms! Funny thing is, I cannot tell you what colour this is FOR SURe, because the bottle is not marked! ergh. This rose colour has an orange/ gold shine to it when moved into the light. I love it!! You can see the colour change, where the flash hit it!
I finished it off with a messy Monster Bundle stamp! It does not show my mistakes that much, because this design is messy already! Thank God!!! I messed up alot! I was too busy watching T.V. hehe

Wow!! Let me introduce you to Phat Santa! This is a one coater, amazing, sexy red! I have fallen head over heals for it!!! I also stamped a Konad design on each finger. I wanted to take a shot of the colour of the polish, I could care less about the stamping!!! Sorry for the awkward photo, but it shows the colour nicely!!
Eep.. I want to use this red every day:P

This is three different product reviews in one!!! First, my nails. I have color club ooooo lala on as a base. I absolutly LOVE this colour. It is a pale grey, kind of shiny, and a one coater! I felt a little bad about covering it up!
Next, there is Sinful color, bali mist. This colour is so sheer, a very nice pink, with a tad bit of silver frost to it! I like it, but not? It is very pale, and blegh. The colour of the bottle itself was amazing! This, was not!!!
Finally, hard candy lip gloss! FLAKIE LIP GLOSS.. Amazong. that is all there is to say about it.

Good day all. I found some Martha Stewart crafts on sale today!! I was so excited; $3.50 per bottle!! Woop!
There is not much to explain, seeing I am posting so many pictures!!! Pretty much, I covered the false nail with glue, dipped it into the bottle, scrapped off the extra balls, flattened it, and tried to shape them the best that I could!
The false nail did not sit as well as I wanted on my nail bed, so the height of the balls, and the nail makes it a little puffy! I can deal though, It looks fantastic!

AHHH The claw!!
I tried an attempt at flakies over orange again..
This is Nfu Oh over sally hansen insta dry!
It is vey hard to photograph the colour change, and it is also very hard to even see the colour change...and be happy about it!!!
I will be giving up my attempt at a nice flakie orange polish! It always turns out lumpy looking, and hardly noticeable.
Although, as you can see, it has a gold colour to it. You can only see that change when the nails are under light, and are tilted in the oddest way!!!!
I do love this combo, but I think I have to buy another shade of flakies for this to work the way I want it to!!

Good morning all! So today I experimented a bit with my crackle collection.

I started off with Anklets of Amethysts ( three coats).. Love this colour! But it is a bit blah.. Very cute, but I wish it had a bit more shimmer, or change of colour or something!!!

Finished it off with random streaks of Fault line and Broken hearted... I don't have the hang of it yet! It seems like these two colours are a little harder to work with! They do not crackle as easily!!!

Sorry about the messy pictures!! I didn't bother to clean up the edges, as my nails were still a bit wet!!!

I am not too sure about this one! I think the colours that I chose clashed!!
Either way,
this is china glaze - happy go lucky.
Surprisingly, the application of this one was fantastic! As we all know, yellow sucks! This colour on the other hand, was fabulous, not streaky and only took two coats.
The black is China glaze - cosmic.
Cute colour, but, I did not like it on my nail as much as I did in the bottle. mhmm oh well!!!

China Glaze - Cosmic..
My nails were drying from my mani; so, I snapped this picture of the bottle!!! It is such a pretty colour. I love black, and glitter.... What more could I ask for!!!
