DL Candy Shop

  This was one of the gems I bought for a ridiculous price last year... Deborah Lippmann's Candy Shop!

My nail broken (mentioned in a pervious post)

  Ok I TOTALLY TOTALLY TOTALLY LOVE THIS!  I wore it to my cousins Bar Mitzvah and my grandmother thought I had fake nails, haha.  Everyone knows I bite mine (hence why they are short now...).
  There are no words for this, I LOVE IT!!  Three coats of pink suspended love on my nails and I'm all good :).

Happy spending,

Happy dreaming,

China Glaze Atlantis- Reswatch

  Hello readers!!  Before I forget to mention this, I will give you a fair warning: THIS POST CONTAINS NUBBINS AND A TON OF PICTURES.  There, I warned you. :)
  Well, we all know about my obsession with China Glaze Atlantis.  Like, I love it.  A lot.  It is one of my favorite polishes of all time (umm, check that top 10 list of mine!).  Let us commence with the load of pictures!

Odd angle?  Lol

  Atlantis is a teal/blue/green/turquoise/idk color.  Yes, I actually have NO IDEA what color to call the base...  But whatever it is, it is semi-opaque (not really a jelly base) and has holographic glitter scattered in it.  This holographic glitter gives it that rainbow effect that we all love in our polishes.  It is Ah-Mah-Zing.  Legit.

  I love love love putting this on and I owe my best friend for getting this for me.  She gave it to me the day the obsession started; the day before my first post ever!!  So, yeah.  It has a special place in my heart :D.

Happy describing,

Revlon Facets of Fuchsia

  I was lazy and unable to take pictures...

  This is Revlon Facets of Fuchsia.  I have finally learned how to properly spell the name.  I saw this a whillllllee ago and picked it up and wore it once late last year.  And I hated it.  Well, not hated it, but I certainly didn't love it.  I can honestly say that I dont really love it now either.  It was (in my opinion) too much hype for what it was...

  Facets of Fuchsia is a black jelly (well, kinda) with purple shimmer and glitter suspended in it.  It sounds good in theory, I just really did NOT like the formula.

  I belieeeeeeeve this is two coats.  Might be three, I really don't no nor care.  Hey, the good news is that my nails aren't nubbins anymore!!

Happy jellying,

Zoya Ali and Love and Beauty Pink Speckled Glitter and Pure ICE Don't You Wish

  Hello peoples!  I am sorry to photobomb you later in this post but I couldn't choose many good pictures so I just included a ton of them :P.
  While I was shopping at a random mall last weekend, I came across this at the huge Forever 21 that they have there.  Like my local one is big, but this one is like four times the size of mine.  Mega.  And in there I found THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  In real life, it looks like OPI I Lily Love You, or this if you see it.  It looks rediculously close to it, but the Love and Beauty one has less flakies and more iridescent glitter.  But it is still close!  I only got it because I was so angry that I missed out on the OPI one.  This was a nice, (so much) cheap(-er) alternitive.  But my bottle is THICKKKKKKK and I wish I had known that.  The brush was all wonky too but I could still deal with it.
  I didn't want to go all amazing that fast so I started out layering it over Zoya Ali, a medium-ish neon-ish pink.  A pink that I can kiiiiinda deal with.
  And as an accent nail, I put two layers of Pure ICE Don't You Wish (which is the same concept as CG Fairy Dust but not the same thing (bigger glitter in DYW, more colorful, smaller and more holo in FD)).
  So onto the pictures!

L to R: flakies, flakies, Pure ICE glitter, flakies.

There's my flakies!

Probably the most color accurate one but not quite right...

Too dark

  It is a solid mani.  I did this on Saturday and as of today, Wednesday, I still have it almost perfect.  Just a few chips on the edges of nails and my left pointer finger's one completely popped off.  But it LASTS!!!!

  Again, sorry to photobomb you.  Just had to do it.

  Oh, and while I was at that mall, I also picked up Icing Pre Game (this is Icing After Party but in my eyes it looks like the same thing, my bottle must have been mislabled cuz I have never seen Icing Pre Game), Icing Rockstar From Mars (to complete my Charlie Sheen collection), and Icing Birthday Beyotch (another DL similar thingy).

Happy flakie-ing,

Christmas Mani

  Sorry I've been so behind on posting!!  Life's been pretty crazy lately and I've still be doing mani's, I just dont have enough time to photograph them before they chip or upload the photos.
  But I knew that I had to get this post out today!

Very festive!

I used:
Sinful Colors Ruby Ruby
Wet n Wild SaGreena the Teenage Witch
China Glaze Mega Bite

Red + Green + Gold = Merry Christmas

Across the middle of the nail is those red webs (those were an accident) that happen to be awesome!!!

Colors used.

All my tape and toothpics and Q-tips.  Joyous cleanup.

  Less than an hour after I finished this mani, I went to color me mine and made a mug.  I can't wait to use it!!

  Finished Hanukkah (my holiday) mani coming soon!

Happy holidays,

Em
