Lush Lacquer Party Rockin'

I did some more layering, this time using Lush Lacquers Party Rockin'. First I used 2 coats of Hits Zeus (I haven't used it since the first time I received and it sure became thick and goopy) and topped that with 1 coat of Party Rockin' (anyone else now have that song from LMFAO stuck in their head?). As you can see from the pictures below the glitter is a variety of colors and shapes. It's like I threw confetti on my hands.

The glitter was very easy to spread and dried pretty fast. I topped everything off with one coat of Cult Nails Wicked Fast. It was nice and smooth after that. I'm glad I used it over a grayish/black because the colors really popped!

Until next time,

L'Oreal Vs. L'Oreal??

L'Oreal came out with a whole new line of polish recently. Here we have Stroke Of Midnight and VIP Status. It was buy one get one 50% off. I got both of these colors because...they looked the same. I wanted to check the difference out myself. 
L-Stroke of Midnight and R-VIP Status
Stroke of Midnight is a dark slate grey with a minor blue undertone. VIP status looks like it would be a purple duo chrome in the bottle. Nope, just a blackened teal shimmer. I like both colors but don't really have a preference between the two. Formula was meh. I have bought L'Oreal polish in the past and I hated them. These are a little better.

I Am Such A Nerd!!!!

Hey, remember on my last post when I said I really wanted to find Midnight Sky?! Um, yeah I had already bought it. Hence, why I am a nerd. It also made me realize that my collection is getting so big that I need to make an inventory list! I can't remember what I have and don't have anymore.

Onto the awesome Midnight Sky by Sally Hansen. It is a smoked out metallic grey base with some sparkly silver foil particles. I have similar shades to this but this is a standout for me. I think it's because of the darker base. It was opaque with two coats and I topped with SV. So far with all Sally Hansen Hard as Nails that I own, the formula is perfect.



I decided to amp up Midnight Sky a bit. I layered it with Confetti Ice Ice Baby. Can you see the blue, green, and a little purple? I must say that this was a good idea!

And Another..

I bought a ton of new Orly products recently so you guys might be seeing a bunch of those.
Here we have Orly Green With Envy
And of course I'm still playing with the new China Glaze Crackle collection.
This is Cracked Concrete over Orly Green with Envy
Again I love the crackle formation with this one. It's just perfect and lets the right amount of color shine through.
Until next time,

Zoya 3 For Free!!

During the recent Zoya promotion they were offering 3 for free for just 'like' them on Facebook. I ended up buys six anyways. Right now I'm wearing Kelly from the Wonderful collection. I really like this color. It's a cream finish with a thicker consistency. As per usual, excuse the cuticles that are in process:)

Seemed to have come with a touch of purple.

This looks way much more like the actual color.

I tried to take a try at doing Konad. I like to order form www.wowsocool.com. I ordered my stamping stuff on Monday and they came on Wednesday. Love the shipping and I think it was free! Here are my attempts.
This one turned out okay
Ekkkk, can you even see what that is supposed to be?
I plan on kept practicing because this is easy nail art for me. Wish me luck! Also I have ordered my China Glaze crackle polish! So excited, I hope they ship fast too.
Until next time,

Milani One Coat Glitters

First of all I need to give a shout out to Erika over at http://chloesnails.blogspot.com/ . I can't find a single place in my city that sells any Milani polish (even their products in general). Well, one day when I was looking at Erika's blog and I noticed she had some of her favorite websites listed. http://www.cherryculture.com/ was listed on their. Finally a website that offers the newest Malani polishes!!!! I've tried other websites but this is the first where I could find everything I wanted in one spot. You guys should definitely check it out. In my I order I received 2 of the one coat glitter. Here is what the website claims.

·Highly concentrated color glitters
·Chic and cool, with rockstar glam
·Long-lasting, chip resistant formula


I love this polish. I'd say its a medium chunk glitter. My favorite thing though is that it dries fast...and I mean really fast. When it dries, it can look a semi-matte. I used Seche Vite over it. Here are the colors that I got.
