Blue, Bling & Black!

I'm on fire!

haha.

Seriously. I think it's the first time I post twice in the same week. Maybe this blog will see more life in the future!!

I'm so happy to be back at school. It's funny because when I graduated I was like: "School. Never. Again. I swear." And then, there's me, three months later. "I can't wait for school to begin.."

AAAANYWAY.

Onto the nails!

I manage slowly but surely to reduce my untried pile. You know that pile who never seems to be ending. It just keeps adding and adding. Until you have to restrict yourself. (Or at least try with a no-buy...)

I used for this mani two untried: "A Stripper Has Been Sleeping In My Bed" by GirlyBits and
"Pacific Blue" (the new horrible formula) by Sally Hansen.

I wanted something simple with a little touch of glitter. BECAUSE GLITTER.

It was only until I took the pictures that I saw that my cuticles were dry. Poor little things. Sorry for your eyes, ladies. (We shall not talk about my cleaning. Seriously, I don't know what happened.) Look only the nails, try to focus. I'm going to give them some TLC!

 I really like "A Stripper Has Been Sleeping In my Bed". It's so glittery. And the name. The name gets an A+.

Indirect/Sun (Yes I changed my hand. What the..)

 

You can see on the last picture I had a little problem with my chevron. I didn't apply my vinyls right so this is what it looks like when you don't follow the rules, kid!

 

Products used: "Pacific Blue"(Sally Hansen), "A Stripper Has Been Sleeping In My Bed" (GirlyBits) and "Black On Black"(Sinful Colors)

 

Happy Labor Weekend! (For those who don't work... like me..)

 

Happy polishing!

Purple Gradient Nail Art

Wooo. Time flies!

It's been almost three weeks since I last posted.

To be honest, I didn't have nothing interesting to post. I am newly employed at the hospital and I was in formation for the last three weeks. Since it's a pediatric hospital, they don't allow nail polish on their employees. Whaaaaaat. Yeah. You read it. So I was only doing my nails on the weekend when I was not working. And most of the time, it was only plain ol' color. (Pretty color, but only one color.)

Now, I began my certification and I'm back at school which means I can do mah nails!!! Happy dance!!

First thing first.

Yesterday was the Lacquer Legion time of the month and the theme was Weird Science. I was really excited since I am ''scientific'' person. I knew right away what I wanted to do. Biological Hazard Nails. That was the design I had in mind when I posted about this polish three weeks ago ;)

This is what it looked in the end. I'm really pleased with it! On my other hand I painted the nuclear sign, but I was too impatient so I smudged my design right after I was done! LOL. Oh well.

 

Products used: Generally Hazzardous (Pretty Serious Cosmetics) (So sad, we can't see the golden shimmer :( ) and Black On Black (Sinful Colors)

NOW. The real star of today's post. Gradient nails are the best thing. There is so much choice of colors. It's infinite. That's what I like so much about gradients. No one can make the same choice (except if you want to replicate someone's gradient. ;))

Indirect/Natural light.

Indirect/Direct sun.

 

Isn't it beautiful??

 

Products used: "Well Isn't That Special" (Girly Bits Cosmetics), ''Relative Dimensions" (Above the Curve) and "Indie Go" (ILNP). I topped this beauty with HK Girl (Glisten and Glow)

 

Do you like gradient nails? What's your favorite color combo?

 

Happy polishing!

Pretty Serious Cosmetics; Nail Mail Of the Week

Woohoo ! Finally! I have my own camera! Since yesterday, I just take everything in photos. I JUST FREAKING LOVE my camera! She's perfect! (Yes, it's a she. I decided since it was perfect, it had to be a she. :P)

I received earlier this week this awesome package from Pretty Serious Cosmetics. It was a huge cross on my wishlist. I had these shades for ever on this wishlist and I finally took the plunge. I'm so glad I did it, too. They are perfec-tion.

That's all the shades I bought in their cute little box!

Grimm Demise is a sparkly teal polish. I could keep watching this polish for ever and still be amazed. True Story.

 



 +

 

 Stuck In The Middle is an iridescent pink/red. It's from the newest collection, I'm pretty sure about it. It has shimmer and it was really hard to capture all the amazing-ness. I tried my best. :)

Look at all these reflections. Wow. I don't find another word to describe Stuck In the Middle.

 

+

88mph is the one I was the most excited about. Not only because it's inspired by Back To The Future (HOW COOL IS THAT, HUH?), but also because it's so SPARKLY! I just kept looking at this polish and didn't know what to do with all my excitement.

The sun wasn't cooperating so I don't have a picture with the sun. It kept hiding until I was done. Mean sun!

 

 +

 

 

Mummy Mush is a golden glass shifting duochrome. Pictures don't do it justice!

 

+

 Purple Monkey Dishwasher... Oh.em.gee. Another lemming of mine. I mean, look at this perfection!! It's so amazing. This shade is so aaaaaargh. I love it. I can't wait to put in on my little nubs :D

 

 +

Generally Hazzardous is an orange with golden shimmer. I'm not an orange person usually, but this shade rocks. I already have a design for this one!!

 

Bonus picture to see the golden shimmer!

 

 

 Have you bought previously Pretty Serious Cosmetics ? What is your favorite color?

 

 Happy polishing!
