Try It On Tuesday! Zoya Wednesday and Zuza

Hey everybody!

Today I have something new that I am going to start doing on the blog! Gini from Sassy Paints came up with something genius called Try It On Tuesday, which I will be participating in! TIOT is where every tuesday, you can post a polish (or two) that you haven't used yet! Then you can email her and she will post your manicure, along with everyone else who participated, on her Facebook as a collective album! I really love this idea because I have a lot of polishes that I would love to try out, but never end up reaching for!

For today's TIOT, I have two polishes from Zoya!! First up we have Wednesday, which is just an absolutely gorgeous color!! This polish went on flawlessly in 2 coats! Shown is without top coat, and it is still sooo shiny!


Next up I have Zoya Zuza! This is also another perfect and gorgeous color! I just layered one coat over Wednesday and it looks awesome! I can't stop starring! It reminds me of a mermaid!


I absolutely love both of these Zoya polishes! What do you think of these two?

Thanks for stopping by!

Wet n' Wild- Break the Ice & China Glaze- White Cap

Hey everyone!

Today I have two polishes to show you! If you haven't noticed, I'm kinda in love with Wet n' Wild Break the Ice. I was looking at my polishes and picked up China Glaze White Cap. I thought they would go well together, and boy was I right!


I started with 2 coats of Break the Ice and then added 1 coat of White Cap on top. I absolutely love this combo, plus it looks stunning in person!! You can't really tell what the two look like, so here is a blurry picture.


You can see a little more of the color shift, especially in the bottle!

What do you think of this subtle combination? Thanks for stopping by, and I'll have a little something new and different up tomorrow!

Pure Ice- Fairy Godmother & Busted

Hello everyone!!

Today I have two polishes from Pure Ice to show you guys! I recently picked these up at my local Walmart. These polishes are so pretty, but the collections that they are from are a little unclear. Fairy Godmother, a purple cream, is from the Limited Edition Belle of the Ball Collection, I think. There isn't really any information on the Pure Ice Facebook, or website, but it looks as if it is targeted toward prom season. Busted, a purple iridescent shimmer, has been out since I believe late 2012. One thing I do know is that these colors pair perfectly!!


 Here is Fairy Godmother! This is two coats and top coat. This would have looked better with three coats, due to some balding spots. It is still very pretty!
Now Busted, was a pain to capture, so these two pictures are not quite in focus. but you can see some of the shimmer in the bottle. There is also a bit of tip wear, so please excuse that!


Look how pretty that is!! It looks amazing IRL (in real life)!! Shown is one coat over Fairy Godmother with topcoat!


Thanks for stopping by!! Hope you enjoyed!

Liquid Sky Lacquer- Fuchsia Illusion

Hello everyone!! I can't believe that I haven't posted in two weeks! I have been so busy lately and I just didn't have time to paint my nails! My schedule is freer than the last two were, so I am hoping to have posts up more often!

*Warning- Picture HEAVY!*

I can't even start to tell you how much I am in love with this polish. It is Ah-Mazing! Fuchsia Illusion is a thermal polish that changes from a dark purple holo when cold to a pink holo when warm! This is just one of the amazing creations from Liquid Sky Lacquer, and can be purchased here. To see the other two Liquid Sky Lacquer posts I have, you can click here and here


 Here it is in all its glory! Isn't she a beaut!?!? I dipped my nails in hot water and this picture is showing the change from pink to purple.



Above is what the polish looks like when it is cold. Shown is three coats and no topcoat. You can also see some of the holographic glitter in the pinky.


This is what the polish looks like when it is hot. The polish is a holo when it is hot and cold. 


And just a few shots during the transition.


Do you love this polish as much as I do? I think it is absolutely gorgeous and I am so glad that I was able to snag a bottle!

Thanks for reading and I will be back with more posts later this week!

Blue Nails for Autism- #4

Hey everyone!!

You know, I'm gonna miss doing blue nails every friday! Today is the last installment of Blue Nails for Autism. I think I am going to have to figure out something to do every Friday in the months ahead!

So for today I just have a pretty light blue polish with some shimmer in it. Sally Hansen Breezy Blue is beautiful!  Shown is three thin coats, and it goes on like a dream! Oh and other good news, my nails are finally back to being squared!!


Isn't it pretty!?!?!? On a side note, I used the Blue Cross Cuticle Remover from Sally's for the first time and I must say I am in love! If you don't have it, you need to go buy it! 5 bucks for a 16 oz. bottle, and it will last for forever!!


Thanks for stopping by!
