NOTD

We attended a wedding this past weekend and these are the nails that I did  :) Nothing fancy but something classic and elegant for the occasion! :) 
DIY French Manicure. Used Wet n Wild White and Essie Poppy Pink Art as a light top coat.

OPI Unfor-Greta-Bly Blue and Ulta Pinata-Yada-Yada


Facebook Page

Good Morning!! :) 
I have decided to create a facebook page for my photos and nail stuff. The blog makes it hard to interact with people unless they create a profile. I will do my very best to keep them both updated so that I can link both sites. 
Wish me luck! :) 
Thanks for reading!

NOTD

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!! My apologies for not posting in a few days. So here is a couple NOTD from this week :) 



First I had Revlon 250 Flirt and used Essie Marshmallow for the heart :)


Than I tried doing something different and used Essie Turquoise & Caicos and China Glaze Street Chic.  The lines aren't perfect since I just free handed it.  








 Used O.P.I German Collection: Suzi & The 7 Dusseldorfs and Nein! Nein! Nein! Ok Fine!

















I used Chine Glaze Recycle (Gray) Essie E-Nuff is E-nuff (coral color) and Revlon 340 Stunning








Lastly, I would like to share a small purchase I made over the weekend. We were shopping at Garden Ridge in Schaumburg and while walking through the "As seen on tv" aisle, 
I came across this:



It was $9.99 so I figured I would just give it a shot and see how it was. 
I just purchased it yesterday and have only tried the Filing ones and so far so good. I just don't know how long the pieces will last. Still haven't used anything else...but when I do, I will definitely let you know how it all works.




                                                






Well, thats it for now. Hope everyone has a wonderful day and thanks so much for taking time out of your day to read my blog. Happy Painting! :) xoxoxox

Walgreen's Mini Haul

Hope everyone has had a wonderful week! I recently went to Walgreen's for a quick errand and of course found myself in the makeup and nail polish area. LOL I ended up buying a few polishes that normally I don't buy or have ever used just so that I could try them out and see how they are.
I purchased (from left to right) Revlon 250 Flirt, Revlon 471 Fashionista, Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear 480 The Real Teal Deal, Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear 120 Hot Magenta.
Revlon was $4.99 a bottle and the Sally Hansen was 2 for $5.00. Which compared to OPI, ESSIE and ORLY..those are steals!! :)
I also purchased Essie's Total Nail Treatment for $9.50 which is a bit pricey but it serves as a base and top coat.












I already tried the Revlon Fashionista with the Revlon Flirt:

I do like the polishes but after a day of wearing it I have noticed that some nails have already chipped :/
As far as the heart, it is not too difficult to accomplish. You just take a piece of paper and drip a bit of nail polish onto the paper...let it sit for 30-60 seconds (try not to use quick drying nail polish) than take a tooth pick and make two dots on your nail...grab a little more polish and than just drag down from the dots to connect and make a heart..
Probably not the best instructions but check out this site if you need more help:
The Beauty Department


Well hope everyone has a wonderful day! :) And thanks again for taking time out of your day to read my blog! Happy Painting! :)
