LA Girl Glitter Addict Celebrate

Hi everyone, I'm back from my trip back home to NY :)

This is one of the many, many goodies that I got during the 3 weeks that I was there. I happened to be in Rite Aid picking something for Yoshi up, and I happened upon a LA Girls Glitter Addict end cap. They were all good colors, but this one grabbed me in particular. It is a red, silver, blue, and pink chunky/mini glitter mix. It really stood out to me in particular since this glitter mix is not your regular multi-glitter, it's like the colors of the flag with a little pink mixed in. ::already has ideas for a July 4th mani::

If you have children in the room, cover their eyes because..

I have polish porn for you! I'm madly in love with Kleancolor! I just recieved a package from a seller on ebay with my lot of Kleancolor polishes, and wow.. I can't stop drooling. I quickly took some snaps of them, and the pics do not do justice!


Bluebell chunky holo, amazing!

This one is Kleancolor Fuchsia, it's been compared to unicorn pee and Nfu oh 51. Gorgeous!
Just a short one tonight, but I needed to blog about this, I am def. ordering more.. I have a sickness. can you tell? Ta ta for now!

Hey everyone!

I think the title says it all!

I'm sorry for the lapse of posts from me, but you know how the holidays take a hold of everything and before you know it.. two weeks have passed!

But I do have a manicure for you, but before I post it, I just want to apologize to Sarah from Sarahandmike and hellokitty dot com. Her polishes from Julie, must have gotten lost in the mail so, I hope you enjoy the polishes I sent!

Over the break, Renee visited and spent a few days with me ( :D ) Well we were on a mission! And that mission was to find the Coloricons from Wet n Wild. She managed to find some with Julie a few weeks ago.. but alas, nothing with me. IF anyone is willing to trade the red one ( rockin rubies) with me, I would throw you a parade! We did manage to find some other great things, like Klean Color at a dollar store! I will post a haul (I promise!)

Here is the manicure I did last night:
The color that I used is Purple holo chrome by Klean Color, and I love it! I ordered a few more from ebay because I am so impressed with the quality. I really wish I were able to capture a better picture of the quality. The shimmer is gorgeous! I added the white butterfly at the last minute. As you can see my konading skills are getting better, because it's not Konad! It's the 10$ American version that came out.

Yes, after all the money I spent on Konad.. the cheap 10$ worked better. Only me...Only me. And Renee.

But that's it for now, I have to get some ZZZ's and I love sleep. Don't judge me.

First 3D manicure- Xmas Snowflakes

Merry Christmas everyone! Here is my first 3D manicure that I've been waiting to post.

The base color is China Glaze Phat Santa, the stripes are Sally Hansen ColorFast Lucky Creme, a vintage Wet N Wild in White Gold, Crayon holographic gold liner, 3D acrylic snowflakes that I made, and topped off with Coffret D'or gel topcoat. Ignore the cracks in the topcoat on one nail. ^^;;

It was really easy to make the snowflakes, much easier than I thought! I just dipped the brush in acrylic liquid, then the acrylic powder, then brushed it in the mold, popped it out after about a minute, and done!

What do you think?
Happy Holidays everyone!

Before the unveiling of my Christmas mani, Pa goodness!

I haven't gotten a good picture of my Christmas manicure yet (bad sunlight) so to tide you over, I have some Pa for you.

I love Pa nail polish. For those of you who don't know, it is a line of Japanese polish made by company Dear Laura that is, well, awesome!! They aren't just polish either, check out their website Dear Laura. It's in English!

I started with Pa Lame Grande AA48, a nice, warm gold polish. I'm not sure why they call this one Lame Grande, or big glitter, since this is actually a foil and not glitter..but it's pretty just the same :)
Pa Lame Grande AA48

After that dried I topped it off with Pa Rock Top Nail Z04, a bright pink shatter (damn you Dear Laura/Pa, can't you name your colors? That would make them so much easier to identify with!)

I LOVED this combo, pink on gold. I had this planned for a few months, but hadn't gotten around to it until recently. Not very fall/winter, but who cares? I needed something bright and cheerful, and this certainly did the trick.

Jaci's Xmas present mani

So, I do have a Xmas manicure all ready to snap for you (and my first 3D mani at that!) but first, a teaser :)
My friend Jaci texted me today with this picture. She said this is the first time she did a detailed manicure, and I have to say I think she did a pretty damn good job!

I don't know all of the color details yet (c'mon grrlfriend, follow us and give us the deets!) but I do know the red is Chanel Fire, and I think the red glitter is Homei Quick Dry Your Person of Destiny.

What do you think of her manicure?

Maybe giving does reap reward?

As much as I love giveaways (and I do!) But sometimes it would be nice if I won one! Well on the day that I sent out my polishes, I jumped on twitter to see that Zoya was having flash promos! Of course the negative Nelly in me was like Ill never get one. But just as I was about to move on, a flash promo appeared! And I jumped on it. And won! What a rush! Well what did I win?
Look at that wrapping!

Oooo Shiny!

A Zoya Color Box!

Trixie, Raven and Luna!

It's actually a funny (kinda) story, I remember ordering two of the Luna's when Zoya released the Ultra glitter collection way back. One was for me(of course!) and one for Renee because right at the time her Maine coon, Luna, had just died and I wanted to cheer her up. Well only one came with a note saying that Luna was out of stock. So I kind of just forgot about getting Luna again, and I guess I'm glad I did!

The other two are Raven, which is a glossy black, gorgeous and should put Black Satin from Chanel to shame! Not that I wouldn't say no to Chanel, ha ha. And the other is Trixie, it's a crazy shimmering silver that is very opaque. At first I thought Celeb City by Sally Hansen was a great dupe, but actually Trixie is more silver and bright(does that make sense?)

So thank you twitter and thank you Zoya! You made a girl very happy:)

Tata for now!
