Red & Gold Nail Art

Hello fellow nail polish lovers! I was looking threw my past posts and realized that I haven't really been doing a lot of nail art. Because honestly I haven't been doing much of it. I am getting ready to go back to school and winding down the summer. So I have been a little busy. Plus I have been a little book worm lately.

So here is a mani that I did yesteday. I wanted to go more ancient/unique themed on this one. I'm happy with all of it but the thumb. It just looks really messy to me. I used Revlon Diva, Julie G Ornamental, and Sinful Colors Snow Me White.

Plus I would just like to add that I would love to review some indie polishes! So if there are any polish makers reading this, email me at kacenel207@gmail.com and I would love to review some! :)

Wet n Wild Dreamy Poppy & Wild Card

Hey guys! Is it just me, or is blogger acting really funny? Sometimes it won't post or save, and some times it won't let me type at all. Well let me tell you that it is very annoying. I had to click the publish button about 20 times before it would actually work yesterday. Grrrrr.

So today I made a quick stop at Target and got two Wet n Wild polishes plus some mascara. I'm gonna show you guys swatches plus something new. I am going to doing a little info space for each polish. It will include name, collection, finish, and price. I'm going to go back and do that to all of the other polishes also, but it will probably take a while.

If you haven't noticed yet, I added two new features to the blog. One is a translate gadget on the side bar. So if you speak any other language then english, you can translate to the language of your choice! I also added a hover image pinterest gadget. Now it is super easy to pin images from my blog. All you need to do is hover over the image and click on it when you see the big P!

Dreamy Poppy:

Dreamy Poppy is a hot pink with a tinge of orange in it. This polish has a pretty good formula but it does go on a little thick. This is 2 coats.

Polish Info:
Brand: Wet n Wild
Name: Dreamy Poppy
Finish: Creme
Collection: Wild Shine
Price: .97

Wild Card:

Wild Card is a shimmery purple. Okay guys, I really hate to hate a polish but I hate this one. Honestly I just put this one over Essie's Play Date. I tried it on its own but it would have token at least 5 coats. It also goes on super thick. So the formula is pretty rough on this one. But on the up side, I do like the color. This is one coat over Essie's Play Date.

Polish Info:
Brand: Wet n Wild
Name: Wild Card
Finish: Shimmer
Collection: Wild Shine
Price: .97

Big Lots Nail Polish Haul

Hey ladies! My dad went to the hospital yesterday, so I didn't have time to make a post. He is fine now, his heart was just beating faster than normal! So I was up till at least 3 am yesterday waiting for news.

I also went to big lots yesterday. I hadn't been there before and I'm so happy that I went. They had this big bucket of polish all for a dollar. So I got my first ever OPI and Julie G polishes there! Plus some Revlon! I had so much fun swatching all of these today!

Revlon Diva:

Diva is a classic red color. It has a good formula even though it took a while to dry. This is 2 coats.

Revlon After Party:

After Party is one of those polishes where you can't say an exact color to describe it. But it is a dark bluish green or like a dark teal. This polish is really pretty. The formula is great and this is 2 coats.

Revlon Reality Star:

Reality Star is a dark green. It is part of the Star Attraction collection from Revlon. So it is also a magnetic polish. This is 2 coats. I have pictures of it with and without the magnet.

Without magnet:

With magnet:

OPI Black Satin:

Black Satin is a shiny black. It is also my first ever OPI polish. I am pretty impressed. The formula was great and this is 2 coats.

Revlon Break Up Cumin Nature:

Cumin Nature is different then a normal polish. It is a 2 in one deal. One polish is just a normal creme (called 1) and the other is a crackle polish (called 2). Number 1 is a orangish gold that is pictured here. This is 2 coats.
