Sinful Colors Ruby Ruby and Love & Beauty Red Glitter

  This was from FOREVERRRR ago.  It took me a while to find the pictures too.  Luckily I know how to navigate Gmail easily and found these.  Awesome :)
Sinful Colors Ruby Ruby is a red jelly.

Love & Beauty Red Glitter is a, uh, red glitter, lol.

Red glitter is super shiny :D

It has small red glitter, medium red glitter, and large-ish red hex glitter.  The other two are just circular I believe.

I felt like I was from the Wizard of Oz with this manicure.



Glitter is a girl's best friend :)
  I love it.  I felt like Dorothy (not like Dorothy Who? which I still can't wait to try.  This manicure was from like... November so I don't remember much about it, sorry :(.
  But that's it for now.  Expect a lot soon :)

Happy glittering,
Em

GOSH HOLOGRAPHIC

  Okay, pictures first, then I talk.  And in advance, I apologize for the holographic picture overload that you may or may not endure. ;)  (The better pictures are towards the bottom, with the better camera)
Bottle shot, full sunlight (in summer).

Again.

Three coats of holographic, no top coat.

:O

Win.  Nothing but win.
  Specifics of what I used: 1 coat of base coat (regular, not aqua), 3 coats of color.  No top coat, no special base coats.  It didn't last for long, like 4 days tops.  But OMG to have such a coveted color of such an epic win.  GOSH! (lol)
  Not much to say about this that you can't already see.  If you got it, yay you!  If you haven't, the only places to get it are through ebay ($39 minimum) or a giveaway (how I got mine).


:D

We need more polishes like this.

Double rainbow all the way... Jk


The green shift

Full holo rainbow power!


Last one I promise!
  Again, after wearing it for a second time (and in the middle of winter I dare say), I still love it.  I didn't want to take it off, but after it became the manicure during my breakup, I kinda wanted to.  But you know what sadness means?  More polishes! (4 more to be exact :P)
  So drool all over your keyboard (as long as you clean it up) and try to find a silver holo, depending on where you live it can be easy to find one or pretty damn hard.  Especially for a discontinued European one.  TO SEE A COMPARISON OF SOME SILVER HOLO POLISHES GO HERE!!!

Happy holo-ing,

Happy Valentine's Day!

  For Valentine's day this year, I did Zoya Ali.  In my own defense, I totally expected it to be more... dark and less... neon.  Lol.  I was NOT expecting this!  Just imagine how my toes must feel like with this on, haha.

Its like a neon salmon pink.  I'm not kidding.

Creme for once, yay!

Neon ftw (for the win), hopefully.

I like my artistic out of focus pictures.
Wow.

Really, really, super neon.
 This is not what I was going for.  And I'm really not in the mood to stamp over it or do another pink.  :P  So I'm going to leave you with this...
What I got the boyfriend for Valentine's Day.
It's going to be a little late and I know he isn't reading this so, it's all good :)
The mug is white with speckles and has all little cooking things on it.  I think he'll like it.
  So Happy Valentine's Day everyone and remember, it's not Forever Lonely Day unless you let your negativity overpower the positive in your life.  If you've got food, clothes, friends, family, and religion, your life is happy and complete :)

Happy Valentining,
Em

Go Princeton!

  My basketball team this season is Princeton and our colors are purple and yellow.  This past Saturday we played the undefeated team and I wanted something cute to go along with our uniforms.  So I ended up with a purple and yellow accent mani.
  In case you were wondering, my team is in fourth place, we have won 4 games but lost 3, and I have only scored 2 points this season (on that Saturday, lol).  We did lose last Saturday though.

In the light.  Color inaccurate.

Better :)

I really enjoyed this mani.
  I almost forgot to say, the purple is OPI Funky Dunkey and the yellow is Zoya Pippa.  I love both of these and I am again wearing Funky Dunkey as a full mani for pictures today.  Pictures of that eventually (when I get back on posting track!).

  And also, I know I've been a bad blogger lately.  A lot of stuff has been going on between me and my family so I've had a lot on my mind.  I still remember and keep care of my nails but I just haven't had enough energy to post like twice I week like I should be doing.  I'm trying to get back on track these days.

Happy basketballing,
Em

China Glaze Ahoy!

  From the Anchors Away Collection from sometime in 2011 or 2010.  Not a hundred percent sure though...
From my last haul post

It's pink.

Gold shimmer

Link its really pink

Awk angle, lol

But it's a pink that I actually like.
  Like honestly, I enjoy it.  I like that it has that gold shimmer throughout it.  It gives it an extra uumph (lol bad spelling wins).  I miight, just miight, add White Cap over it.  I'm not sure how that would look, but I bet pretty good.  Maybe though, lol.
  Two coats is necessary, I didn't see any need to do more.  Mine looked a little dull with 1 coat of top coat so I had two of that.

Happy shimmering,
Em
