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,
Em

Wet n Wild Black Creme Etc.

  Ello guys!  As I get ready for my brothers graduation, please enjoy this random post.

  What I used was Wet n Wild Black Creme with Essie Shine of the Times and OPI Crown Me Already!  on top of it.  I wanted something... random.  So here is random!!

  So like I said, my brother's graduation from high school is tonight so I'm going to start getting ready for that in a bit (I have to play in the band).  It is outside on the football field and it is supposed to be nearly 90 degrees tonight.  It's going to be hot and sticky and blech but I'm happy for him.  I did my nails to match our school colors/my dress.

Happy graduating,

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,

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!

Flash

Blurred

Flash

Flash, not NEARLY color accurate

To show the differene

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,

Em
