Back to school!

  My manicure back on the first day of school.
  What I did was put on China Glaze Emerald Fitzgerald and matte-ify it as a green chalkboard, use China Glaze Stone Cold for the grey chalkboard, and Wet n Wild French White for the white, and azure and pink nail art pens.  And I used a white on to write 2014 on my thumbs.  Everything I matte-d.


 
Happy schooling,

Sinful Colors Nail Junkie (pic heavy)

  I am so so sorry I've been so lazy with posts.  With school quickly approaching and work and everything, I really dont have time!  But this one (and um every other one, lol) is for you all!!
  This first set of pictures is one coat over a black creme (Wet n Wild Black Creme):























  Two coats over a black creme:















  Sorry for the absurd amount of pictures.  It was literally that amazing.  I got several compliments per day on this manicure.  Layering = win!  OH and some of these pictures are with matte top coat
  My nails are much much longer now as you soon will see...

Happy layering,

Very Berry Replay (Except Not...)

  Well, where I first saw this mani, I was like OMG and then I tried it.  Lol.

This is after I added some shimmer...

Original

Shimmery

  Okay, so I know that I have been veryyyy lazy with posts lately.  I mean with finals last week and studying and graduation and work this week, it has been ridiculously crazy.  But like I said, it should be better now.  Well, that is unless I get home from work every day and fall asleep (like I have been)...

  But for this manicure I used Love and Beauty Olive (I think, there was no tag on it) for the turquoise and Zoya Lolly for the pink.  And then for shimmer I added China Glaze White Cap.  Let me tell you, it looked AH-MAY-ZING!  Like I loved the look of it so much that I did just the turquoise on my toes (with the shimmer).  Very summery.

Happy summer,

Em


P.S. If you wanted to be awesome and follow me on Instagram (which would be awesome right?) then my username is emie116.  I don't post only nail-related things, but once in a few weeks I do post a mani.  There are a lot of things about me on there so you get to learn a little about my non-polish life :)

Wet n Wild Black Creme with China Glaze Luxe and Lush

  Hello everyone!  I know that I have been a bad bad blogger lately.  But as you can tell:  it's June.  For me that means mega end-of-year prep, work starting up, and temperatures rising.  Things get complicated in June, October, and January, so one must expect me to be more than slightly MIA at these times.  I promise that within the next three weeks, things on here should be back to normal (-ish).  In the mean time, please enjoy this post!
  So after my recent obsession with the Hunger Games trilogy, I decided to crack out Luxe and Lush (District 1, where I would belong).  I saw it matte somewhere over a black and decided to try it myself.  Very happy with the results!  "And may the odds be ever in your favor!"

Without matte top coat I believe

Same as above

  I believe the only matte picture is the first one.

Happy obsessing,
Em
