Day 7 Black and White

Day 7 is black and white nails and Ive been looking forward to this one because I knew exactly what I was gonna do! Ive been wanting to do a piano mani ever since I saw one of the new bundle monster plates in which one is a stamp of piano keys. So I painted my nails black and white alternating nails with Wet N Wild black creme and Sally Hansen Insta-dri Whirlwind white which are both one coaters. Then stamped plates Konad m73 and  BM-207 with Konad stamping polish Black and White.

Plates I used






I absolutely love this mani that I even kept it for a couple days and got so many compliments on my nails. This is a mani that I will probably do again because it was so simple and clean. Have you ladies ever done a mani that you loved and would probably do it again and again?

Day 6 violet China Glaze LOL

Hello Ladies we are now on Day 6 Violet I had a tough time with picking a color for this one because I wasn't sure what color qualifies as Violet but I was like what the heck ill just pick any purple Ive been wanting to use. About a  month ago a went dusty hunting and found 3 brand new bottles of China Glaze LOL!!! I gave 2 away and kept one and haven't use it can you believe that!! LOL went on smooth in 2 coat with no basecoat because Ive read that its pretty hard to apply with the wrong basecoat so I just skipped it.






I love this color but then I got an idea what would a holo polish look like with a flakie on top? I had to give it a try so I went ahead and added Nfu Oh #51 and look AWESOME the pictures does not do it justice!





Hope you guys like this combination I just wish I could capture how beautiful it actually is.

Day 5 Blue Orly Stone Cold

This is the day Ive been looking forward to because blue is my favorite color and Ive been dying to use Orly Stone cold from the new Mineral Fx collection. This polish is a must have its a super shimmery blue that was opaque in 2 coat and dried smooth!




Ok so I wanted to add a little something to it and what better then some flakies! I added a coat of Nfu Oh #53 now the pictures I took does not do it justice. It kinda reminded me of a polish Ive been drooling over for a while KOH blue universe. 



I added a coat of Essie Matte about you just for fun.

I love this mani and its probably going to be my favorite of this entire challenge. What is you favorite color?

Day 4 green OPI Zom-body to love

Day 3 I decided to go with a Halloween polish because I love Halloween!! So there nothing better then Glow in the dark nails! OPI Zom-body to love is part of a duo set along with Black shatter that OPI came out with this year for Halloween. Zom-body to love is pretty sheer and took about 4 coats to get to this It wasn't bad since it dries quick. 

4 coats



In the dark
This is definitely  going to be the polish I use for Halloween unless I find a glow in the dark polish that glows blue. Does anyone know of any glow in the dark polishes that glow a different color then green?

Day 3 Yellow Chanel Mimosa

Ok we are on Day 3 which is Yellow nails. I love yellow nail polish but its always such a pain to apply and get even and this one was no different. This is my one and only Chanel anything that my wonderful Hubby went out and bought for me just because. The polish was kinda streaky but I managed to get it to even out in 2coat in some fingers and 3 in other. 






How do you guys feel about yellow polish? For me its a love hate thing love how they look but hate to apply it.

Day 2 (orange) China Glaze Sunworshiper

Day 2 is orange and I knew exactly what polish I was gonna use because it the only orange polish that wows me it is China Glaze Sunworshiper its from last years Summer collection Poolside. Its a neon orange so as a neon you all know it take a bunch of coats to cover unless you do a coat of white first. I didn't do a coat of white I just did a bunch of coats because I didn't mind mostly since the polish dries super fast. In the picture there's between 5-7 coats and no top coat. Hope you got your sunglasses on!







I love this color because of its brightness but I know a lot of people wouldn't wear this color out. My hubby describes this color as a ghetto girl color lol..How do you ladies feel about neons?

30 day challenge.. Day 1 (red)

Ok so while reading through the blogs I found this 31 day challenge and loved the idea! I then posted it on  Facebook in a group (Face and Friends) I'm in and everyone loved it too so we all decided to start on the 1st. We realized that September only has 30 days so its the 30 day challenge for us.


So today is day 1 and the color is red. I am not a big fan of red but It gave me a chance to try out two new reds that Ive been meaning to use. I wanted to do a glitter sandwich so I started with a coat of Barielle Elle's spell then added a coat of Lynnderella's Ruby red ruby and finished it off with 2 coat of Elle's spell.





I love this combination even thought I don't like reds this is a keeper atleast till tomorrow lol... What are your favorite reds?
