Orly Pure Porcelain And A Sharpie

Hi Guys, I decided to give glitter a rest and to put on a simple color that some of you might fine boring.

Orly Pure Porcelain is from the 2011 Precious Collection and in deed it is precious. It has the slightest pink tinge to it, on me it looks like a beige creme.

The formula is really nice and I only needed 2 coats to reach opacity.

Next day, before removing I wanted to try out my metallic sharpie pen that I purchased at Walmart. I made swirls all over. The photo makes it look like the swirls are streaky but there not. I waited awhile before I applied topcoat because I didn't want the ink to smear.

Toddles...

Until next time please have a great nail polish day. (✿◠‿◠)
Love, Rhonda

Hi Guys, Here is the press release on the upcoming KB Shimmer Summer Time Collection!

KBSHIMMER ANNOUNCES RELEASE OF NINE NEW POLISHES
KBShimmer Summer Polish Line Set For Release June 1^st, 2013

KBShimmer is excited to announce the addition of 9 new colors to their 3-Free glitter polish line and an expansion to their nail prep line. Owner Christy Rose says “With warm weather and sandals popping up, June is the perfect time for bright, bold colors and patriotic themes to celebrate a fun and exciting summer.”

The summer lineup includes one glitter top coat, two glitter crellys in a white base and six bright, bold polishes, two in a matte finish. KBShimmer will also be expanding their nail care line to include two scented cuticle oils and liquid nail prep. “Our new line was created to play off the bolder palette of summer, some inspired by the 80’s and 90s, but also to celebrate the patriotic season. One of our polishes plays off the color of the year, Emerald Green, and will ease people into the summer while two others were inspired by the fall 2013 Pantone colors Koi and Vivacious. Both will make for an easy transition through the summer and into the fall. We are also excited to unveil two scented cuticle oils in an easy-applicator pen. We hope to inspire and motivate people to go out in the sun and show off their nails!” says Rose.

Look Book | A Peachy Keen Abstract Design

Hi Guys, I have some nail art for you today using Tough As Nails Lacquer, Peachy Keen. I did an abstract design using the same strokes on each nail.

(Sorry, sometimes my camera gives me a sun tan.)

After Peachy Keen was dry I polished on white wide stripes down the middle using SC Snow Me White. Afterwards I used my L.A Colors Art Deco Striper pens in mint green, sea foam green and silver glitter. I wasn't satisfied until I added on the dots in various places on each nail.

Hope you guys like it!

Until next time please have a great nail polish day. (✿◠‿◠)

Hi Guys, today I have a variety of colors and glitters to share with you from Tough As Nails Lacquer. I think you will really like these and I also have a 15% off code so be sure to read on...
**press sample**

Peachy Keen, is a juicy peach creme with pink finely milled shimmer which my camera did not pick up but it's there. I love this combo! Used 3 coat.

Side Walk Chalk, a lime green with fine green shimmer. (sorry guys my camera went bonkers its showing silver shimmer instead of green) I had to laugh at the name because I immediately thought about when I was a kid we use to dry lines to play hop scotch or four square with chalk. So neon and so right to wear for summertime. Used 3 coats.

Beyond Bright Blue Sky, a cyan blue jelly with blue hexes, squares and holo glitter. I love this shade of blue it has a calming feel to it. Used 2 coats.

Orange Whip, an apricot orange jelly with hexes, squares and yellow gold glitter. Used 3 coats.

Snappin' Bubbles, a light pink creme with iridescent shimmer, neon pink and holo pink glitter. So pretty I love how the neon pink glitters stands out. Used 2 coats.

Like Fireflies, iridescent shimmer and holographic glitter in a jelly clear base. A beautiful topper that can be layered on any color. Here I layered one coat over SC Go Go Girl a red creme. I think it looks amazing over the red.

Purple Twilight, a beautiful purple creme with fine purple shimmer. A-ma-Zing! my picture doesn't give it justice. I love this combo. Used 3 coats.

Teal-Ta Whirl, a teal blue-green shimmer with a duo chrome feel to it. Used 2 coats.

Blue Monday | Lynnderella Bird Brain Blue

Hi Guys, I was browsing ebay and came across Lynnderella Everything's Coming Up Neon Collection. That whole collection is calling my name but I'm too broke to get the entire collection. Lol! I did manage to get one...Bird Brain Blue.

Bird Brain Blue is a gorgeous sky blue iridescent base with neon glitters in pink, blue and lime green. And there are also some hearts, diamonds, stars and flowers thrown in for good measure.

The formula was quite thin making the glitters not stick to the brush like I would like them. I layered 2 coats over Essie Borrowed & Blue a sky blue creme. It's lovely and I love it on my nails just wished I would have chosen a blue jelly instead to get that squishy look.

I don't have very many neon glitter polishes in my stash but I'm really loving them. I think I will pay a visit to Glitter Unique and get me some neon glitters to franken up some of my own mixes.

What are your thoughts on Bird Brain Blue? Are you into Neon glitter?

Until next time please have a great nail polish day. (✿◠‿◠)
Love, Rhonda

MeLissaLacquer Swatches and Review

Hi Guys, I have some polishes to share with you from MeLissaLacquer. They are from her Spring Is In The Air Collection and The Gatsby Collection. *press sample*

Let's start out with the Spring Is In The Air Collection...

Rome Wasn't Built In A Daisy, yellow gold shimmer base with daisy shaped glitter, large red and purple squares along with small gold, red, and purple glitter. I applied one coat of it over Dr's Remedy Glee Gold a gold shimmer. The formula is great with just the right consistency not too thick or too thin and was very easy to apply.

Not My First Pinata, a colorful fun glitter in red, yellow, green, purple, blue and white in a clear base. It can be layered over just about any color. Here I layered one coat over Zoya Yummy a creme blue.

Here are some bottle shots

Melissa is offering a free ring with a purchase of 2 or more full size bottles. That's a great deal and by the way guys the rings are absolutely gorgeous! (Please contact Melissa on her etsy shop or her facebook page for all the details)

Now let's take a look at the Gatsby Collection. This collection is based on the book and the movie "The Great Gatsby". Also, this collection is Limited Edition once these are sold out they are gone.

Repeat The Past, is in a clear base with glitters in purple, silver, white and blue. I layered on one coat over LCN Lilac Blossom a purple creme with hidden shimmer. I applied it down the middle and spread it out evenly.

NY On Summer Afternoons, another colorful glitter in black, yellow, blue, red, pink and holo glitters in a clear base. I layered on one coat over LCN Vintage Rose a pink coral creme.

These are just a few from the collections. I love these glitters they applied so well. I can't wait to try them on top of other colors.

These can be purchased on Etsy shop and to keep up with MeLissa follow her Facebook page.

Exclaiming A Bright Kelly Green

The other day I shared with you a few polishes from Pure Nail Lacquer. I have fallen in love with Endless because it's such a unique color of green. It's bright but not so bright you need to put on your sunglasses neon green. I looked it up on goggle this shade of green is called Kelly green.

I added on white dots which looks like dotted on exclamation marks. It's an eye catching simple design.

Do you have any Kelly greens in your collection?

Until next time please have a great nail polish day. (✿◠‿◠)

Abstract Nail Art Design

I'm in love with abstract nails they are so fun to do because you don't have to give much thought in creating a design. Just draw some lines and dots. It does take practice to get clean lean lines as you know macro shows every little flaw, so I suggest you to stand back to take a look at my nails. Lol!
