Blue Monday ~ My Guest Post

Hi Everyone!

Sorry I haven’t posted but I dropped my camera and broke it. With all the Christmas sales going on it was hard to find one available. I finally found one and ordered it but it was delayed and it’s supposed to be here tomorrow. I will be up and running again.
Thankfully I have a Blue Monday guest post on one of my favorite blogs: Nails Like Lace! It is a fun and interesting blog! There are tutorials, polish posts, giveaways, and guest posts and so much more! Please click on the link and go over and check it out!

Fuchsia ~ Mode

Hi Everyone!
I have another Mode lacquer that was a gift from New Zealand. It is called Fuchsia. Fuchsia to me is pinkish but to me this one looks orangish. It’s a lustre.
See:
 
 
 
 
 
It was pretty sheer; I am wearing 3 coats and probably could have used 1 more. I’m also wearing 1 coat of top coat. I like this. What do you think, is it pink or orange?

Did It On ‘Em ~ OPI Nicki Minaj

 
Hey!
I have one from the untrieds! I have to admit that I really didn’t like Did It On ’Em in the bottle after I got it. I ordered it before it was out so I didn’t know what it would look like.
I decided to wear it because it’s getting cold and I am missing the warm weather and it reminds me of that! This is a yellow-y lime green crème that I would call a neon. I thought it would be like Who The Shrek Are You that I really didn’t like.
Here it is:
 
 
 
 
 
I am wearing 2 coats and 1 coat of top coat. The formula was good and it dried quickly. I like this color. What is your favorite color to wear when you are missing the warm weather?

Gothic Crown ~ Mode

 

Hi!
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! Mine was good with a lot of family in town!
Today I have a polish that I got for a gift from New Zealand; Mode’s Gothic Crown. I love the name! It’s a black base with silver micro glitter. So shimmery!
What Do You Think?
 
 
 
  
 
 
I am wearing 2 coats and one coat of top coat. It dried quickly and the formula was great. This is available online from Mode’s website. What is your favorite brand of lacquer not made in your country?

Plenty Of Fish In The Sea ~ Wet N Wild Spoiled ~ Blue Monday

Hi,
It’s Blue Monday! I have an affordable lacquer today. $2.00 is what I paid for Wet N Wild’s Spoiled polish. Plenty Of Fish In The Sea is a bright blue base with teal shimmer. Very Shimmery! I like it.
Take A Look:
 
 
 
 
 
I am wearing 2 coats and 1 coat of top coat. I really like the brush for this line; it makes it easy to apply. The formula was good but it took a little bit longer to dry. Do you wear this brand?

Live And Let Die ~ SkyFall ~OPI



Hey Everyone!
OPI calls Live And Let Die a private jet black, from what I remember My Private Jet was more of a gray base. This is more of a dark green base with gold shimmer.
Here it is:
 
 
  


I am wearing 2 coats and 1 coat of topcoat. This is really a 1 coater but I put on 2 coats. It would have been greener in the pictures with one coat. The formula was good on and it dried quickly. I really like this one. Do you see what OPI means by saying a private jet black?

Rory ~ Zoya

 
Hi,
I don’t wear very much pink but I saw Zoya’s Rory and it had silver shimmer so I had to get it! Rory is a light pink almost a lilac with lots of metallic silver.
Take A Look:
 
 
 
 
 
I am wearing 2 coats and 1 coat of top coat. The formula was really good and it dried quickly. Rory looks like a foil. I really like this. Do you wear a lot of pink?

Sprog ~ Butter London ~ Blue Monday

 

Hi All,
It’s Blue Monday! Today I have a periwinkle blue from Butter London; Sprog. It’s very pretty and probably more of a spring/summer color. I wore it one day before taking pictures to see if would chip and it wore well.
Take A Look:
 
 
 
 
 
I am wearing 2 coats and one coat of top coat. The formula was good and it dried fairly quickly. I really like this color but is it blue or more of a purple?

Tomorrow Never Dies ~ OPI

 

Hi!
Today I have a lacquer that is going on my top 10 of 2012. Tomorrow Never Dies is from OPI’s Skyfall Holiday Collection. They call it an intense purple but I think it’s a blurple (blue/purple) shimmer. No matter what it is, I love it!
Here it is:
 
 
 
 
 
I am wearing 2 coats and one coat of top coat. The formula was nice. It dried quickly. It is so gorgeous! So what do you think, blue, purple, or blurple?

Seeing Stars ~ Wet N Wild~ Adhesive Nail Art


Happy Halloween!
I have always wanted to try some type of instant nail covering so when I saw these cute little inexpensive stars I thought I would try them. They were $3.00 and let me say that you get what you pay for but they are fun for 1 day. Sorry my pictures aren’t good, I was having camera issues.
See:



These were like foil with a lot of shine. I could only wear these for 1 day before they started to come up on the tips. I think it was all the hand washing and lotion. Still they were a lot of fun. Which instant manicures/nail covers have you tried?
