Julep - Sawyer

Hey guys,

So over the past few months since I've gotten busier in my life obviously I have cut down how often I post. But I have also tried to just quit buying as much polish, which is HARD! Especially when you have impulse control problems and insist upon buying the whole Morgan Taylor Cinderella collection because you're obsessed with the movie. OR being quite tempted to order the entire Julep April collection. (THEY'RE JUST SO PRETTY AND BRIGHT) Anyways I'm the worst and my bank account hates me.

Today I have a super neat polish my best friend gave me, this is a bronzey-gold duochrome. At first I was kind of like yeah that's pretty. And then I put it on and I LOVE IT!!!
This was two coats.

December Julep Maven Box

Hey guys,

So today we wrap up 2014, wow what a year lots of ups and lots of downs. I'm excited for 2015 hopefully we all have a fantastic year ahead of us all.

So I have the last Julep box of the year. I'm torn on this month's collection I found it to be kind of all over the place and not have a really strong personality. Although it's pretty glitzy and ritzy which is always good for December however I would have loved more rich jewel tones opposed to the more metallic colours, but that's just me.

Hell On Wheels Manicure

Hey guys, 

So I was about to post when I noticed a bunch of blogs I follow were celebrating 'International Nail Art Day' well this is the first I've heard of this so who knows if it's a real thing. Anyways I waffled back and forth about what to do, I considered not doing anything because I just cracked a nail on my swatch hand so I'm going to be babying my nails for a couple days to hopefully allow for it to grow out without losing all my length. But that just didn't seem right seeing as I had a good reason to do some nail art.

For the past couple days I have been marathoning through Hell On Wheels on netflix, seriously the hot guy in Crossroads with Britney Spears has grown into one SUPER STONE COLD SILVER FOX! Yowza! Seriously dirty looking, long dark silver haired cowboy is RIGHT up my alley. Anyways tonight is the Season Premiere of season 4 and while I'm not quite there yet, hopefully it won't take long, because yay long weekend!

This isn't super complex but we have a steam engine wheel and Eva's chin tattoo thrown in for good measure. Dollish Polish - Curse Your Sudden , But Inevitable Betrayal.

Julep - Faye

Hey guys,

So I have had a crazy day and just want to crawl into bed so this is going to be short and sweet.

I had ordered this polish a while ago, and Julep actually sent the wrong one but without any hassle they sent me this one and let me keep the incorrect polish which was nice. I really love the name Faye, I think that comes from my love of Phoebe Tonkin which is a boring story. Anyways I love this shimmery bronze.

This is two coats. No problems with application, the purple in my nail beds is from a previous manicure.... whoops dark purple can be a biotch.

November Julep Maven Box

Hey guys,

Yesterday I received my Julep Diamond Mystery Box, it was HUGE like actually the biggest box I've ever gotten from them, I decided I'm not going to post it as a box since I got a buttload of add ons so I'm not going to bother with what is part of the box and what isn't/

Today I have my November Julep Maven box to show you guys.

This month I decided to go for the It Girl box and add on one polish. I can't remember what the products were but they really didn't thrill me. Click for more after the jump

 

Comic Book Heroes: The Thing

Hey guys,

Well, Monday's suck. We all know that, but I'm here to hopefully brighten your day with everyone's favourite cigar smoking, gruff yet squishy Rock man. Yes, That's right. You guessed it The Fantastic Four's own The Thing! He's definitely not as hot at Johnny Storm (see what I did there?) but still awesome.

The base for this is China Glaze - Harvest Moon & A England - Order of the Garter

The Thing!

GOSH - Galaxy

Hey guys,

Today I have a polish for you that grabbed my attention immediately when I saw it on the shelf at Shoppers.
Now looking at it I see it is somewhat similar in colour to SOPI - 212-Sephora which also grabbed my attention in much of the same way. This one is missing the holo glitter and the flake that the SOPI one had.

This went on easy in two coats.

This is

GOSH - Galaxy

That was a little bit on the short & sweet side, guess there is nothing else randomly floating in my brain I needed to get off my chest.

Sephora by OPI - 212-Sephora

Hey guys,

So this weekend I started watching Terra Nova on netflix. I really am not sure why I wasn't interested in this when it was on TV, because seriously, hot guys (is that Jay Ryan from Beauty & the Beast I see?) and dinosaurs. Anyways I'm obsessed, I can only get 13 episodes obsessed but I'll take what I can get.

Today I have a polish I picked up when I had my stress shopping spree at Sephora, this is a limited edition that is literally everything but the kitchen sink. It's jam packed full of shimmer (see the bottom blurry pic for the sparkle), it's got flakies buried in there and theres even some holo glitter! This actually managed to stay on my nails for 2 whole days! I always laugh when I say that because I think of the people who make their manicures last for weeks. This is two coats.

Sephora by OPI Jasmine Collection

Hey guys,

So yesterday I posted SOPI's Cinderella collection and today I have Jasmine for you! This time around I knew to grab the set from Sephora when I had the chance (and saved myself $20) 

I think when it comes down to it I prefer the colours in this set a little bit. 

I really hope there are more princess collections to come from SOPI because we all know I would die over Aurora & Belle.

This set includes six polishes.

Fall Leaves

Hey guys,

Last month I talked about doing a post of my favourite fall colours. Well seeing as Halloween rolled around it just seemed more appropriate to push it back to the end of November.  So I guess there is that to look forward to.

Also with November comes the return of one of my FAVOURITE events. Can anyone guess? That's right. Movember! So to anyone who reads this. Do all the men in your life a favourite and donate to a MoBro today! And enjoy all the moustaches running around! 

For this I used

OPI - Warm & Fozzie

Orly Instant Artist - Light As A Feather

Orly Instant Artist - Lovey Dovey

Orly Instant Artist - Jet Black

Island Girl - Hawaiian Color

Hey guys,

So I know I said yesterday was the last Magic Mike polish BUT I couldn't resist giving you guys a Bonus

Now while this one came with a name "Hawaiian Color" but if you ask me that's a crummy name so instead I told Jill that I wanted to call it "Gold Lamé G-String" she suggested we name it after Matthew McConaughey's character Dallas

That made a lot more sense because this colour IS Dallas haha

so this is

Island Girl - Hawaiian Color aka "Dallas"

it's a bronzey chunky glitter that went on really nicely.

It's over top of A England - Lancelot
