Birthday Week Mani: OPI Simmer and Shimmer! Sorry for being away. I'm busy. I can't do many things at once.... But I did wear polish. I just didn't photograph it. I'm kind of intrigued with blues at the moment... Sunday was my birthday. I wore this sparkl…
Zoya: Kara. Took this a while back. I need to be a better blogger. Look how short my nails are! But yes. A coral pink. I like this one. Very opaque. 2 coats. Creamy or jelly like? Maybe... a little of both.
SAN FRANCISCO and an Insane Parade!! I'm not a baseball fanatic, but I grew up in the Bay Area! So, I went to the city on Wed to see the Giants Parade after class. There was no way I was going to miss out on the parade! It was INSANE! I've never seen so many people in one place …
Franken Fail Some of my franken fails...I did these a while back. I was just to embarrassed to show these yucky things. The glitter I used was some random art craft glitter. Hit or miss I guess. I got the crushed shells at a local beauty store. Yuck. Lol. Oh wells, no one is perfect. …

Spirit Day GLAAD declared Oct 20th is Spirit Day. A day to end hate. So today I'm wearing purple polish. I did this quick last night before studying for my midterm. Check out the facebook group. Today, I'm wearing my favorite purple shade. Misa: Violetta! She is so pretty. You…
Zoya: Alegra It's funny how much other things you get done, when you have a lot to do. Um, so yes a quick post! A nice fuchsia glitter/sparkly shiny pink! It's a 3 coater. It still kind of has a VNL slightly but not so bad. I wore this for a while. I didn't let it dry enough …
Finger Paints : Evergreen Dream. J ust some pictures for you of this lovely green. I love this polish...you only need one coat. I'm messy so this is 2 coats. I chose to wear green again for depression awareness. I know it's breast cancer awareness as well, but I feel like this is…
Zebra Print Hmm, so first of all.. I CUT MY NAILS! Wow! You have won this round, oh guitar...but the nails might make a comeback. I'm not used to this length right now. I feel like my nails have been chopped off. My pinky nail looks odd to me. Grr, I miss my nails. I will just ha…
Nails vs. Guitar. I've been really busy with class, and I let my nails grow out really long. Crap! They are sooo damn long now! I haven't played my guitar in a long while, so I didn't really notice. Well that is until Thursday night, I was really stressed out so I decided to …
Zoya: Edyta. I got this color this month to reward myself for doing all this work I have to do for class! (blargh I think my instructor is a little cuckoo about design.. soo much work.. ehh!) Anyway.. this is my reward: Zoya Edyta! It's pretty. It's green. It's gold. It'…
Orly: Oh Cabana Boy This is pretty color; however, the formula was wonky. I put this on and it did not dry. Boo, that made me a little sad. But, I think I have a couple of pinks in this kind of iridescent-like shade so I'm not too upset. Although, I think this one is a little more &…
Glitter! I love this. This is Wet n' Wild Sparkled over Wet n' Wild Tickled Pink - a light pink! (sorry no bottle pictures) I put this on Thursday night and wore it until.. um it's still on. It's a little worn out on the tips. To get it this sparkly, you have to put on ab…
Compare Ruby Kisses- Yellow Bikini Sally Hansen - Xtreme Wear Mellow Yellow I did this a while ago. I was just too lazy to upload it. Sally Hansen Mellow Yellow is a little lighter and hard to apply. It is runnyas well. While Ruby Kisses - Yellow Bikini is a very rich yellow. A nice …
