PA Polish-Laying Concrete

Happy Friday!!

Today I have a very special polish . It comes all the way from the PA headquarters ,now you might ask what's PA ? Umm.. POLISH AMOR . :) hahaha My friend Iris is very talented when it comes to mixing frankens. Lucky for me I get to try them all and give her my two cents :)

This polish applied nicely in just two coats. This shade of grey I think looks nice against my skin tone. Its full of multi glitter in magenta,pink ,turquoise & even some white flecks. I love this polish and i give it 5 stars <3



Have a wonderful weekend!
XOXO

Hi guys!

Today The Dark Knight Rises comes out! who's excited?! I am!! I'm going tonight to watch it at midnight with my friend to this 21+ over theater so that should make it more fun. :) Are you going to see the movie?!

The other day my friend Iris sent me this WnW polish by Fergie and I knew I wanted to pair it with a hot pink I loved the contrast between the neon and black glitter .

Glitter party on my nails!

Happy Monday!

I hope you all had a lovely weekend and got some rest :)


This Friday I went to the post office to pick up my parcel that was waiting for me from Jojo. We started doing this swap a few months back when I saw she posted Barry M Gold on her BLOG & so naturally its the first polish I tried when I got my hands on my package(which by the way is amazing! i loved EVERYTHING) .

This polish was not loving my nails so much so I did 2 layers of Models Own-Ibiza Mix to hide the imperfection and i absolutely loved the combination. Its a glitter party ..ohhh heyyy!!!


Here's what Jojo included she is seriously a sweetheart! thought of every detail I told her. My love for 50 Shades,Keychains,Sweet Tooth ,Mini nail polish. & she even included teeth shaped candy because im a DA. hahaha LOVE her!

Thank you for looking !

Summer Mani

If you turned on the news,held a conversation with a friend or heck even logged into any social media you've seen those pictures of the car thermometers to show how hot its been these past few days . Im not complaining, that just means staying in my room with the ac & reading a great book... and of course eating ice cream! . I LOVE mint chocolate chip ice cream with sprinkles, & that's exactly what I aimed for with this mani <3

I Used:
Orly Jealous Much -3 thin coats. Great formula.
 Icing-Shredded - 2 coats
OPI-Rainbow Connection

Have a fantastic Thursday! & remember to drink lots of water with this heat <3

XOXO

Minty Gold Mani

Yesterday I showed you my gold comparisons & today i'll show you how I first wore that gold leaf TC.

I used:
Orly-Jealous Much? for the base and then I dabbed the gold leaf polish & shorty after that I fell asleep. Once I woke up the next morning I was upset that I had so many bubbles in my mani. I didn't have a chance to take it off before work or else I would of . It bugged me all day!!! I still dont know what made the bubbles .. my top coat? I fell asleep too soon? I did my nails with the AC/Fan on? my tc was too thick?! GRZ!! idk but i hope it doesn't happen to you!




Oh & as you can tell  my nails are all over the place I chopped off my middle finger nail by accident and now they are all awkward #problemsofablogger Right?! LOL

Have a great day! <3

Sephora by OPI- Real 18k Gold Top Coat Comparisons

Happy Monday! <-- this post was for Monday but I guess blogger thought otherwise. So umm Happy Sunday!

Today  I have a few comparisons as far as it goes with "Gold top coats" I already gave you a swatch & review for the Sephora by OPI Real 18k Gold TC . & just the other day i received a LOVELY swap from Iris & she included this gold leaf top coat that i LOVE so much & i decided i'd do a comparison .. lets get started :)

First is Sephora by OPI (can be purchased HERE)
As you can see its a lot more yellow &  super tiny gold flakes

2nd is NYX Gilder Glitter (can be purchased here)
this gold color polish is leaning more of the lighter gold color. The flakes are all irregular size & it makes it unique.

Last is this gold top coat ( no name) (PolishAmor included more info on how to get this polish)
The flakes are almost the same color as the Sephora but obviously they are completely different. The flakes swim around really beautifuly but getting them out is a hassle.I can't even say how many "layers " this is because i dabbed them all over my nail.

Another choice would be Deborah Lippmann - Boom Boom Pow which says it also contains gold however that's glitter & didn't include it on the comparisons but you can see it here :)

& for fun here are all the polishes my lovely awesometastic friend sent me <3 Thanks bish!

Well there you have it gals :) Gold is definitely trendy at the moment and im not complaining I personally love gold so I welcome any other gold top coat thrown my way :) What are your thoughts?

Ps. Maria from Cult Nails also sells gold flakes for 5.00 and you can mix them in clear base to create a gold leaf top coat !! pretty awesome if you ask me

Have a great day & thanks for reading this super long post

I don't recall ...

ever wearing this mani . I found this in one of my old folders as I was getting ready to delete it . I have bad memory I truly do, but looking at this picture makes me kind of angry because as much as im breaking my head  I cant remember what polishes I used,nor when.ARRRGGH!!  has this happened to you?!

 Not sure why I didn't post it right away , maybe its that middle finger nail. I cant for the life of me ever get it squared..

oh well!

Have a great day

XOXO
