Loaded Lacquer Toasted Marshmallow gets Androidified!

Heya Guys!

Happy Friday! Today I have a bit of a fun post for you! Recently I bought some MJ and JR Plates from My Online Shop and they arrived here the other day. While removing the blue film and being ridiculously excited at all the cool images (and there are a lot to get excited over)  I came across one image that I just had to use right away!

And I just couldn't resist taking a picture with my S5!

To get this look, I started with a base of Load Lacquer Toasted Marshmallow on all my fingers. Toasted Marshmallow is a super squishy jelly polish, that was perfect in 3 thin coats. Although you could probably get away with 2.  Once that was dry, I stamped on my Android dude using MJ Plate XVIII and stamped in Mundo De Unas 39 Avocado. I then used straight vinyls from What's Up Nails. This was my first time trying vinyls from What's Up Nails, and I loved them. They are a bit longer in length then the vinyls I am used to using, and at first I thought it might be to big, but after using them I actually prefer that extra length, it makes them a bit easier to use. Once the vinyls were securely in place, I polished over them in Zoya Tilda. I top coated everything with KBShimmer Clearly on Top and the studs are from Born Pretty Store. 

I am a big fan of how this came out. I think it is so fun and adorable, and even you iPhone users have to admit the android dude is super cute!! :P I also love that this look was really easy to achieve. The pay off for how adorable it is, is really worth it.  The longest step in this whole look, was waiting for my base to dry! 

Alright guys and gals, I think that covers it for today! I really hope you enjoyed my Android nails as much as I do! Has anyone else done anything similar to this before? With either their phone, or another product? I would love to see it! Let me know in the comments! Till next time Kittens! <3

Maybelline Bleached Neons Dry Brushed and Stamped.

Hey Guys!

Happy Saturday! I am glad it is the weekend, although the cooler weather we have been having, I am not on board with yet! I am still not quite ready for fall and today's nails are a testament of that, since they are anything but fall colours! A while back, I mentioned that I had won a giveaway, and there was some really awesome polishes in it. Well one of the prizes was the Maybelline Bleached Neons. Today's post features a few of them!

First things first, although the bleached neons, apply alright, not great but alright, they had a terrible self leveling issue. I gave up after 3 coats. Maybe today wasn't my day, or I have been spoiled to much by awesome to apply polishes,  but either way, I advise super extreme caution when applying these, since they had more then a few hiccups and some of my images show that :l I still love the colours, even if they weren't the most fun to work with though!

To get this look, I started with a base of  Maybelline Day Glow Teal on my pointer, Maybelline Ultra Violet on my thumb (not shown)  and pinky, and Rica Whiteout on my middle and ring fingers. Once that was dry, I did a glitter gradient on my pinky using Loaded Lacquer Fluffy Macaroons, which is a super fun and whimsical glitter.  I then took Day Glow Teal, Ultra Violet, and Citrus Collide and did the dry brush technique over Whiteout, once I was satisfied with the coverage of my dry brush, I top coated to speed up dry time, and then stamped over it, with  MoYou London Princess Plate 14 in Mundo De Unas Peach. I then top coated everything with HK Girl.

I really love how fun and whimsical this is, and even though it is much more suited to spring/summer then fall, I still love it. As I said before, I am totally not ready for fall yet, so I am still squeezing in some spring/summer manis! :P Is anyone else totally not ready for fall yet? Or have you totally embraced everything fall??

Alright guys and gals, I think that covers it all for today! I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend, I am relaxing and trying to soak up some sun. Till next time Kittens! <3 

#RedCoatTuesday OPI Red Polka Dots and Lace

Hey Guys!

It's another Red Coat Tuesday and that means red nails!  This weeks Red Coat nails  are super sultry, and something I have been wanting to do for a while. I used OPI Big Apple Red for this look. Which is a great classic red shade.

To get this look, I started with a base of OPI Big Apple Red on my pointer, middle and pinky fingers, and a base of Loaded Lacquer Toasted Marshmallow on my thumb (not shown) and ring fingers. Once, that was dry, I stamped all the red nails with Vivid Lacquer Plate VL28 in Cult Nails Nevermore, and placed dots using a dotting tool on my thumb and ringer finger in OPI Big Apple Red. I outlined the nails using a black striping polish. I top coated with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

I really, really love how these came out,  this was my first time outlining nails with black striping polish, and I think for a first attempt, they turned out awesome! Even if I have such a curve in my nails that you can't always see the black outline along the sides! :P I really think these nails would be PLL approved, since what is sexier and and more sultry then black lace!?

Alright guys and gals, I know I was a bit late getting this up today! Things have been a bit hectic around here, but I hope you liked my red and black lace nails as much as I did! Has anyone else been totally on the lace trend too? Till next time Kittens! <3 Blogger:

Load Lacquer: Watermelon for Red Coat Tuesday!

Hiya Guys!

It is once again #RedCoatTuesday ! and you all know what that means! Red nails! I used Load Lacquer Watermelon for my red look, and the polish name is what inspired today's nails!

First things first, I know they aren't very PLL as far as sultry goes, but it is summer, and a lot of my looks thus far have leaned toward fall/winter. I really wanted to get some red nails in that were summer appropriate, and when I picked up Loaded Lacquer Watermelon, it was a done deal!

To get this look, I started with a base of Loaded Lacquer Watermelon on my thumb (not shown) pointer, and pinky fingers, and a base of OPI Jade is the New Black on my middle and ring fingers. Once the green fingers were dry to the touch, I got out a make-up sponge and sponged OPI Jade is the New Black, Zoya Josie and Sally Hansen Mint Sorbet onto those nails. I free-handed the tip of my thumb, middle and pinky fingers using Jade is the New Black, and used a white stripping polish to put in the white stripe along the green tip. I used a dotting tool with Cult Nails Nevermore to put in the seeds. I then placed the watermelon fimo pieces using an orange wood stick and some topcoat.

I am really pleased with how these came out. If you have been here a while you know I struggle a bit with freehand, so to be able to see how much my skills have improved in the last year, is just astounding to me, and I can't wait to see the progress another year from now.

Alright guys and gals, I think that covers most of it for today. I hope that you all are having an awesome sauce Tuesday, don't forget to indulge on Pretty Little Liars tonight, and also to check out all the other awesome Red Coat Tuesday looks! Till next time Kittens! <3

Essie Play Date is Disarmed and Dangerous!

Morning Guys!!

I am actually writing this in the middle of the night, 2:53 am to be exact!, however this won't go up till tomorrow morning, so it is morning by the time you are all seeing this. I have been a bit busy the past week,  which is why it has been a quiet around here, but I did manage to snap a few shots of how I recently wore Essie Play Date.

I adore this purple, it is such a fun, squishy looking purple. As you can see, I paired this with a third attempt at a  water marble. I am really proud of how my water marble skills are coming along. Maybe soon, I will be brave enough to do a whole mani outta them, and not just an accent nail! The polishes  used for the water marble are Essie Tart Deco (which I will state yet again I love, love, love) Zoya Micky and Essie Play Date. I topped it off with a bit of China Glaze Fairy Dust, to add some sparkle, cause honestly, who doesn't love sparkle?

 To add a bit more interest to this look, I also added a glitter gradient on my pinky. The glitter I used was Disarmed and Dangerous by Loaded Lacquer. I really love this glitter, not only is it super unique to my collection and gorgeous, it is also awesome to work with.  I had no trouble getting a good amount of glitter on the brush, which made for a super easy glitter gradient.  I will add here, that for some reason, my pinky and my camera did not get along, and it actually looks like a different base colour, it is not. I used a base of Essie Play Date there as well, but for some reason my camera refused to photo it properly. I guess this glitter was to much awesome sauce goodness for it to handle! :P


Alright guys and gals, it is after 3:00 am now, so I really should be getting to bed. I have an early day tomorrow, but my favourite person in the whole wide world is flying in tomorrow morning, so it will totally be worth no sleep!  This is also where I get to add how awesome all of you guys are, and how you will totally forgive me if I am not around much the next week!! I know, this week, now the next!! However, for your awesome patience with my hectic schedule, I have an offering of cookies!! Things will be back to normal after this week I promise!  Till next time Kittens! <3
