Short post. Just wanted to show the mani im wearing today. This is china glaze "igniting love" with nicole by opi "rainbow in the a-Kylie" I forgot to get pictures when I first did it. So these are a few days in and I didn't have my seche vite so I used something a salon sold me on vocation called Healthy Hoof. It's pretty good but not as good as my seche! Never heard of it before either.

Essie Exposure and Maybelline ColorShow poka dot




These 2 color are so great together. My mom gave me Essie exposure almost a year ago. It was one of the first polish's I got when I started collecting. Normally I don't think I look good in pink polish but this color is very very pretty and I'm pretty sure it would look great on anyone. It is very flattering and iv been getting comments on how nice they look everywhere I go. I really love this combo of polish's. I wanted to do this for a long time and finally said who cares if it doesn't look nice ill just change my mani earlier. This is a look I will go back to even thou with all my Untried nail polish it may take a wail before I get to wear this gorgeous mani again. For 4.19 this black and white Maybelline glitter polish is amazing. Iv been lemming a black and white glitter for ever. I really want to go pick up another bottle just in case since its a LE I don't want to ever run out and I want to ware this over every color I own! I must say this is def a must buy glitter polish in my Opinion.

What do you guys think? I love these two colors together! Is it just me or is this super cute. Would you wear this? Id love to hear your thoughts on these polish's and on the mani. 

On this is 3 coats of Essie and 1 thick coat of Maybelline. 

To the pictures!!
 Essie exposure by itself. Pretty color!

Quick update on my last post!

My nails are starting to chip and I got some nail growth but I don't have the time to change them and everyone keeps telling me to keep them as long as I can like this. I still am shocked how awesome these came out. 

Anyways I really needed another coat of too coat if I am going to keep this mani till the weekend but I'm almost out of my Sally Hansen Insta dry, 10 day no chip (in the red bottle) it drys in 30 seconds!! This polish is the best thing I have found. I even got my mom using it now. I mean come on the worst part of doing your nails is waiting for it to dry! Now we get the great shine with almost no drying time! 

So I opened my nail polish draw to pick a different top coat out and I thought Matte!! And if I don't like it I can just put one of my cheaper top coats on it tomorrow! 

So I just wanted to show you guys what my last post looked like Mattified! And I think it looks just as pretty in matte! I wish I tried this before they were so chipped and the color seems to have faded a tad but still so pretty!! 

What do you guys think looks better? Do you love matte polish and glitter as much as me? Because I just LOVE it!!

Milani 3D Gradient Nails

This has to be the best Nail job i have ever done on myself. I was so surprised at how nice this came out! Every where I go I get stopped and asked "where did you get your nails done at." I even got asked if these were impressed nails which I hear have some great reviews. So I feel pretty good about my nails this week!! 

I have been trying to get good at doing my nails for a wail now. I'm still not good but seeing these result lets me no there's still hope for me yet! And I would like to take a minute (to tell you how I became the prince of a town called bel-air) sorry I had to! Anyways hehe I would like to take this minute to thank you guys for baring with me. I know my swatches are nothing like all the other great blogs out there but I'm hoping with practice I can one day swatch my nails where I'm Good enough to call myself a nail blogger. And I want to thank you for taking the time to watch me get there! So thank you guys. Everyone reading this right now Know how great you are!!! 

For this gradient I use milani 3D in blue(cyberspace) purple(hi-res) and pink(digital) I then used a square make up sponge and dabbed away. 

I think my left hand came out so much nicer. But I'm a righty so it usually does. 

All pictures are my left hand besides the last 3. Before the right hand I snapped a few shots with my flash on so you can see what that looked like. 

I really love this mani. It can't put great was really easy and just looks so summer! I love it! What do you guys think?

Milani One Coat Glitter in 551 Lavender Fizz

I just love purple polishes!! Purple glitter? All the better!!

This polish is very very pretty. It needed 2 coats and was perfect. I used Sally Hansen 30 sec quick dry 2 coats and it was perfectly smooth!!

I've been looking forward to wearing this but I really wanted to try one of my new liquid sand polishes this week. But for my birthday I got the new iPhone 5 and a very pretty purple glitter case and I new this would match perfect so I has to put the liquid sand away and match my phone for the week :-)

A few pictures are my nails on my phone case. It's a little blurring but I had to take the picture with the reflection from my bathroom mirror.

Before I take this off I want to see how it looks with a matte top coat. Matte pictures will be at the bottom. Can't wait to see what it's gonna look it!!

Oh I also threw in some blurry shots to see the sparkle and a few with my flash. It made the polish and completely different color but you can see the bigger glitter better and I just thought it was neat! Lol

Lots of pictures I went over board haha sorry guys but I just love nail polish pictures! Some of these were taken right before I was ready to take them off. With my Sally 30 sec dream it lasted a long time but I do have crazy nail growth and a few thinning areas :-D there's also some photos before clean up :-) I didn't do to bad. I'm real bad with dark polish! It gets everywhere hehe .... On to the pictures!!!
