This is what I wore with Opi- bring on the bling. I went out to eat some quick food with a friend for some din yesterday. Just put on some random stuff. I love this jacket. It sucks everything in. Blazer: Zara ( thrift store find) Scarf: Chez Momi* Pants: OLD OLD NAVY Shirt: old ran…
WOW. I came back just in time. I just realized I started blogging a year ago today. Um that's crazy. A lot has changed. Well, I'm still broke and a student, but I know much more about nail polish. I am also in a much better peace of mind; blogging seems to help. I'm glad I met…
Sorry about the neglect. I was just not feeling the nail polish for a long time. I really only wore old favorites or no polish at all. Nothing to blog about. Even though I have not really bought polish since January, I still have so many polishes that are untried ..lol. So, I must blog. …
Franken Neon Pink Hmm.. well, I wanted to make a pale neon pink, but no matter how much white I put in this franken It was still really bright pink...! But I love it! It's lighter than all my neons... almost like a barbie pink! It's still neon though.. really eye popping p…
Zoya Emme Franken Another franken. I really like this one. In a WnW bottle.... I used about 1/3 Zoya Emme + 1/3 WnWild white + 1/3WnWild clear. It becomes a light pink with a slight shimmer. It's a really nice formula! 2 coats and it dries fast and shiny
Pink Holo Franken Woo, I mad a glitter franken that did not fail.. I think. Well I like it. It is shiny shiny glittery holo happiness. Ingredients: NYC Fuchsia Shock Creme + WetnWild Kaleidoscope + Holo glitter + Clear nail polish
I'm Not a Fashion Guru, But... I joined a fashion site!!... called lookbook.nu!! check out my site: http://lookbook.nu/pinknailblog Most pple on the site are such freaking amazing fashionsistas. I'm so inspired! I'm not really a fashion person... I want to be ch…
Sinful Colors: Irish Green Irish Greeeenn! This is sooo green. I love it! It's a little sheer though. 3 coats but you can still see a VNL slightly . However, I think this is the perfect shade for St. Patty's Day.
China Glaze: Atlantis Dark Aqua Green Holo Glitter! Shiny Shiny. Looks best in the light/sunny days. I love me shiny holos. 2 coats.
NYC: Flat Iron Green I really like the vampy effect of this green. It's such a dark green nail polish that it looks black. The formula is pretty good as well. It's 2 coats and dries really really fast! I love.
L.A. Colors: Metallic Green Ohh...Well.. I'm not a big fan of metallics/foils. I got this metallicy green at CVS in a series of metallic colors. I bought two packages, one for me and one for my first giveaway I held. I hope you like them Biba! Well, despite my views about metallic n…
Essie Mint Candy Apple My favorite mint. It's a nice opaque formula. 2 coats of pretty goodness. Yey! Green mint! I love me some mint candy apple!
Revlon Minted I like this mint. It has a nice shiny finish even without a top coat. This revlon mint has a little sheer and runny formula, but it covers well in two coats. :-D My second favorite mint nail polish.
Essie Mint Chintz I think was the first mint I ever bought. Ehhh... It's a frosty shimmer mint. It looks pretty in the bottle. Ehh, but it's really old and smells strong. Maybe I should save this for the next Zoya exchange. It is not the best formula: it's pasty, messy, str…
Sinful Colors: San Francisco Eee Shimmer. So pretty! I love this color. And I love the name too. Yey San Francisco. 2 coats.
Zoya: Suvi *Let's celebrate St. Patrick's Day: Green theme week! Back in the day 99% of my elementary school teachers were Irish. I remember having to learn Irish dancing every year for our annual Irish parade. It was soooo not fun back then. But seriously, now I miss it! Haha,…
Zoya - Happi Ok, this one is a nice color from Zoya. However, I think this formula is not the best. It has some VNL even after 3 coats. Ok...not cool... and it took a while to dry. Maybe because on some nails, I put 4 coats and did not let each coat dry enough. Oh well, when I have en…
What Is On My Face Ok. So. I'm not really a makeup person. But... I'm going to rave about a foundation I found the other day. A serious holy grail moment for me. A drugstore foundation that works for my skin tone! Maybelline Liquid Mouse in Cocoa Dark 3. It was under…
What Lady Gaga Was Wearing. Did you watch Lady Gaga at the Grammy Award Show. Look at her nail polish.. Oooh!!! Polish...What's that. What's she wearing...!? Her nail color is a new addition to Deborah Lippmann’s line and is called Yellow Brick Road . Celebrity manicurist …
You Picked the Wrong Valentine. Happy Valentine's Day. Well, I don't have a Valentine, but I wore some cool nail polish today to celebrate. Here is a cartoon I made. I actually made this to get over some boy... but I changed it to incorporate a Valentine theme. …
Love & Beauty - Pink This is from Forever 21. I got this in Nov. Forever 21 has nail polish! $2.80. I put this over my mani from yesterday. I needed something more. It's a little more magenta and less peachy. It also has silver specks of microglitter. :-). It's really opaque…
