NOTD Featuring Ellagee Rainbow Syrup

PR Sample/Purchased Myself 

You know when you're super excited about something that you can't contain it?! Let me tell you, I'm still extremely excited over this polish! 

For my base I used Venique Dominating Thigh Highs and Cult Nails Grunge for an accent.
I topped each nail with Ellagee's Rainbow Syrup. This polish is gorgeous in the bottle, but it absolutely POPS over a dark nail polish. 
Look at that sexy ass linear holo. No joke, I was really bummed and actually upset when I took this off. Mind you I wore it for about 3-4 days.
Look at that Rainbow as well. 
We shant even talk about what this polish makes me want to do LOL
I'm just going to leave you with this

Ellagee's Rainbow Syrup was provided as a press sample. All other polishes were purchased with my own money.

Cast A Spell of Twinkling Glitter!

Purchased Myself
Hey everyone! I hope that you are doing well!

So, I wound up getting sick AGAIN, two days after I got over the original things I had. Completely ridiculous right? It stinks having a crappy immune system/small lungs. Total drag! Anyways, not only did being sick get me down, but I realized, since I don't have a dedicated space at the moment, I totally hate being on my laptop. It's actually kind of a hassle for me to be honest, so that's draining on me as well. It's just a big stink fest over here. I'm actually using my Dad's desktop as I write this because I totally could do with a desktop and just not bother with laptops anymore. I've had a laptop ever since... oh good lord middle school!? Maybe even before then, but you get the point. Crazy. 

With all of that being said, I did manage to do my nails. Wow right?! However, figures that I would smudge them! I didn't want to re-do them for a 5th time, so we're going to have to deal with the smudgie. I did try and cover it up and thought I did a pretty good job, that is until I saw the pictures! Pictures never lie...well unless it's adding more pounds, then that's a lie. It's a win/lose kinda thing. Hah!

Just totally pretend that you don't see the smudges and that it's just a freaky reflection. Cool? Cool.

I used Hairspray & High Heels DIY Gel Nail tutorial as a basic base of this manicure.

Gelous Advanced Gel Coat
China Glaze - Cast a Spell
Rock Top Coat 
Venique Twinkling Glitter
ORLY Matte Top
Mucho pretty right?! I looooove that you can see rainbows in the glitter. So. Cool!

This is a close up of Twinkling Glitter, look how crazy that is! Ugh love it. Twinkling Glitter is made up of different sized hexagonal glitter.

You can still see a little bit of the rainbow here, but it's more matte (obviously). I'm undecided on which I like. Okay, I love it crazy shiny as well as matte so I can't really choose.

Which do you like?!

Twinking Steel Toe Stud - Venique


Hello everyone!

I had asked on Twitter which I should post about first Venique or another ORLY MegaPixel and Venique won the majority so here we are! I do feel bad about doing this post, since Venique isn't readily available to the public.. well let me rephrase that, I just found it on Amazon, so I don't feel AS bad. But if you are a beauty professional you can find these at Cosmoprof. I do want to warn you, I'm not too fond of the pictures. I have been having the biggest issue with my camera. I've been using my Dad's for my nail posts because mine wont focus at all. I definitely hope you all love this mani as much as I do! I also want to say sorry for the state of my hands/cuticles. They've been so dry but I've been doing some pretty heavy yard work so they are pretty tore up right now. I am trying to get them looking decent though!

Steel Toe Stud is a grey creme polish that has a distinctive purple undertone to it. I'm looooving grey polishes like this! Me gusta mucho! Anypoodle.
Twinkling Glitter is a hexagon holographic glitter. When I saw this polish I couldn't pass it up!!!

GIGANTIC Nail Polish Haul!! *updated*

Hello everyone!

Before I even get into this post I want to tell you that I am so sorry I am so behind! When we went to Orlando for 3 days we were SUPPOSED TO have Wifi in the room and there was NONE. I will be damned if I am going to sit in the lobby for hours with weird people watching me. Trust me it KILLED me not being able to interact and blog like I wanted! :( BUT I am going to get back into the groove! Unfortunately as well I'm going to have to stop the FOTD Challenge. I really don't want too but with moving then having no internet to do posts I am about 2 weeks behind and I wont be able to make those days up. It stinks!

Since I was working Premiere for the brand Olivia Garden I KNEW I was going to have Sunday off because I had a CVS Nuance party with ClumpsOfMascara. Corrinne from GalacticLacquer and I decided that on Sunday before the party we were going to SHOP! Let me tell you, this girl is amazing for one, but she was also a bad influence, but in a VERY good way hah. She influenced a chunk of the polishes that I bought. Haha which is A-OK with me! But lets get into the polishes! (there are ALOT) All of these polishes were on amazing deals for Premiere. I'll tell you the prices, but honestly don't expect to find them at these prices unless you go to a beauty trade show like this

The first polish I have to show you is from Trind. This brand of polish comes from Holland. It also happens that they were giving this color away. None of their polishes have names but the label says CC116

This purchase was DEFINITELY influenced by Corrinne 100%. I probably would have not bought it if she wasn't there actually.
Nail Envy & Avoplex Cuticle Oil $8 for the set.
