Cult Nails Polishes!!!! and a Tragic Nail Disaster

Hai hai!!
I just received some nail polishes that I ordered from Cult Nails and I am super excited ;)


they came in these cute burrito bundles :)

my new pretty pretties

Cult Nails Get It On, Wicked Fast, Seduction, Scandalous, Devious Nature

3 coats Devious Nature 

 Devious Nature is a gorgeous bright magenta/pink/berry creme. It is just super awesome. 2 coats work great. I will be wearing this a ton over the summer as a mani and also as a pedi. I love how cheerful and bright it is ;)

Devious Nature and Scandalous
 

Ok, so awesome right?! And then come the sad part....

***time machine to 4 days ago****

*All is good, my nails are nice and long, perfect for swatching and nail art

THEN...AHG a huge rip appears, really deep (I couldn't just trim all my nails) on my ring nail

I start to panic....I put on 3 million coats of different nail base coats hoping that it will last until the nail grows long enough to cut. That only works for a little bit. Then, I cut the sticky part of a bandaid and shape it to my nail, hoping that will work...It doesn't.

I am skipping a bunch, but finally The Rip gets longer and I break down and rip it off.

***present***

So sorry guys, but for the next few weeks my swatches will be on my right hand.

just in case you don't believe me, here are some shots I took of Scandalous on my left hand

I kept them in small size (please DONT enlarge these)

Also, I will totally reswatch this when my nails grow out ;)

*cringe*

**more cringing**

Anyway, I love all of my polishes from Cult Nails. In fact, I want to but ALL the polishes from there.(HEHE) 

Happy Sunday!

Franken Saturday!

Happy Saturday!!! YAY weekend!!!

As you probably know, I am not the best at naming my franken...

I think I have only named one, Cookie Monster, but I haven't even shown you guys (lol)

Anyway, today I have another nameless franken for you guys! 

It has a pink semi sheer (but easily buildable) base and has different colored glitters in it.

I even added a tiny bit of flakies!!

3 coats no topcoat!

Here we have some GIANT pictures so you can see the awesomeness!!!

I think its a subtle pink with a bit of sparkle! 

A pretty shade for spring.

Any name ideas?

Estee Lauder's "Rose Apricot"

Hi all!!!
I tots LOVE the polish i have for you guys today! Although it is much more of a summer color, the weather here in California has me thinking its summer already...(if only ;)

well..lets let the pics speak for themselves

as you can see, this beautiful polish has a coral/lobster colored base with tiny tiny silver sparkles that flash prettily in the sun! great application, this was two coats with SV on top...

LOVE IT

HI GUYS  IM SO EXCITED!!!!!!!  it is really awesome to be on katy's super blog.YAYAY.

 Here we have an OPI, big hair big nails. It has a kind of jelly finish and it is part of the Texas collection. 

 Then, I added white flowers that complement the color, making it a very tropical effect. I used katy's wonderful supply of dotting tools and her nail art pens for the center of the flowers.

Hope you Like!!!!!!
