Red & White Crackle

Hey guys,

So today was a weird day, this morning when I woke up every fiber in my being told me to call in sick and just stay in bed. Did I listen? Nope I did the right thing and hauled my ass out of my bed and went to work. No nothing horrendous happened today that made me tell myself that I should have trusted my gut. It was just bizarre.

Umm new obsession? Payphone by Maroon 5 obvs cause they are amazing. 

So nails for you today is an extension of my CHI manicure the other day. I decided to slap a crackle on it and see what happened. All in all I like it.

This is

CHI - CHI You Under The Mistletoe
Sephora by OPI - White Blasted

China Glaze - Smoke And Ashes

Hey ladies,

So today I was looking at The Polishaholic's new swatches of the OPI Spiderman collection and was lusting over a couple colours then realized there are still so many from the Holland Collection that I love. Maybe I'll make a list and treat myself to one or two on Friday. Something to look forward to?

Okay so here is the only one of the Hunger Games Polishes I haven't swatched for you. The only reason I haven't is yet is because I'm not 100% happy with the way it photographed and I couldn't even decide really what colour it was. Blue or Green or Black. I've read other reviews about that. It wasn't until I was taking it off until I found that it's a green base.

This is China Glaze Smoke & Ashes

I really like this colour I just wasn't a fan of the way it photographed.

I personally think it looks super cool.

Neon Arrow

Hey guys,
So today I caught crap from Nicole for slacking off. So I apologize I've had a busy day. It was my favourite four year olds birthday party today so I spent the day baking and at the waterpark. So much fun.

So here I was playing with some more nail art. I know the arrows are off center. I did that on purpose.

For this I used
China Glaze - Flying Dragon
Art Club - Neon Green / Neon Pink

CHI You Under The Mistletoe

hey guys
So right off the bat I'm going to apologize for any spelling or formatting errors I'm just doing this quickly on my phone while I do my nails and watch Full Metal Jousting.
So this is another polish that Nicole gave me. It's a Chi polish now obviously everyone probably knows Chi from their hair products. Their polish contains nano silver. Which is supposed to prevent nail fungus. It's also supposed to last long. So I used the Chi base and top coat for this to see if it was going to make it last. But after a night at the barn and a day at work it had chipped just like any other polish

It's a super gorgeous colour
This is CHI You Under The Mistletoe.

NYX - Thunder

Hey ladies.

Soooooo yeah apparently I have nothing to say right now... other than sooo did anyone see DWTS this week? Now what did you think of that elimination? Hmmm?
Unexpected? I thought so.

Moving on

so while digging through my polish I realized that I hadn't swatched this pretty baby for you guys yet.

This is NYX Thunder.

A really pretty sky blue frost.
I love NYX polishes they're pretty and DIRT cheap! Woohoo
It's funny cause I'm a huge polish snob most of the time but I feel like this polish out performs some of the pricier polishes so I just always pretend that it's like 80% off all the time haha.





Now if you're thinking hmmm isn't this polish like another NYX polish that you posted about a while back? Yes You'd be correct. that polish is South Sea, but alas it's different. See the South Sea swatch below :)
