Nail Polish Haul from Urban Outfitters

I got this last month at Urban Outfitter's additional 50% clearance sale. The regular nail polishes were $.50 each, and the nail art set was $1. 

Nails this week - Pinkey Nude

I got this nail polish at an Urban Outfitter's clearance sale for $,50! Not too bad. It's a cute pinkey nude color. Let's see if it will last!

Nail Polish from April Ipsy Bag

I usually don't like pink nail polishes, but I love this color! It's a pretty neutral candy pink color. The texture is pretty watery yet slightly creamy. I added 3 coats.

Zoya Nail Polish in Ipsy's Glam Bag for The month of May

I was so excited to get a full sized Zoya nail polish in May's Ipsy Glam bag. The nail polish at Ulta is $8, and my Ipsy bag is $10 a month, so I definitely scored big time. The color I got was labeled "Blu". The color is perfect for spring. Zoya has been one of my favorite nail polishes lately. The texture is really thick, creamy and pigmented. I put on 2 coats.

My May Ipsy Glam Bag is Here!

Yay! My May Ipsy Glam bag is here, and it's like a mini Christmas. Again, I am impressed and pleased with my items this month. I got 3 full sized items (Zoya nail polish, Juicy Beauty lip gloss, and Mirabella lip liner) and 2 sample size items (NuMe hair serum, and concealer). If you guesstimate the amount of each item's price, it totals well over $10 a month. The nail polish alone is $8, I am guessing the lipgloss is $5-$10, and the lip liner is $5-$10. The only item I am disappointed with is the concealer. The shade is way too light for me. Luckily my sister has fair skin so I gave it to her. The packaging of the sample concealer isn't that great either. You have to keep it in the generic plastic container it comes in, otherwise it would dry out. Sometime this week I will have reviews and pics of each item! If you got the May Ipsy glam bag, what is your favorite item? 

Ipsy Glam Bag Sneak Peek for May

I got this e-mail promotion for May's Glam Bag. I'm excited! I hope I get a cool color. I'll post pics once I get my bag.

Wet n Wild Spring Colors Nail Polish Haul

This is my new fave brand of nail polish. I am pretty impressed with the formula. The formula is thick, creamy and really pigmented. The brush is nice and thick so it is easier to apply. The nail polish dries pretty quick too vs other nail polishes I have. The nail polish seems to last pretty long too, I've had the purple color on my nails for a week now and it JUST started chipping. I got these at Walmart for $1.68 each. You can get Wet n Wild at Walgreens & CVS too but around me they are cheaper at Walmart. The only bad thing I can say about this product/brand, is that they need more color selection!

Acid Wash Jean Nails

This nail look is super easy to do. You can probably do a variety of colors too!

Steps:
1.) Apply 1-2 coats of black or navy nail polish on each finger and let completely dry.
2.) Apply 1-2 coats of white nail polish on each finger and let completely dry.
3.) Take a cotton swab and dip it into nail polish remover.
4.) Make swirly motions on each finger with the cotton swab dipped in nail polish remover to get the desired look. I used 3 cotton swabs total. If you use the same cotton swab over and over, the cotton might start sticking to your nails.
5.) Finish with a top coat and voila!

Spring Inspiration nails

Long time no post! I've been so busy for the past month. I'm barely on a computer lately, usually I will just use my phone. This is my current nail color. I thought it was the perfect spring color. I'm ready to wear spring clothes, but it's still a bit cold here. I'm pretty impressed with this nail polish. Thanks to my sissy for letting me borrow, she got this at CVS. The texture is creamy & thick so I only used 2 coats. The polish dried faster than I expected and nicely. Oh, and the price is only $1.99!!!!!!!!!! What a steal. I'm going to have to get more colors. 

Nail Polish Haul

I had to return something at the salon at JcPenney & got store credit back. I ended up getting 2 classic OPI nail polishes. JCP has a good deal if you buy more than 1 nail polish, the price is $6.00 each instead of $8. I got Bubble Bath which is a nice neutral pink, and Lincoln Park After Dark which is a nice dark plum/wine/black color. 

My Week in Nails

I've been doing my own nails lately, and loving it! I'm actually not too bad at it. I use to get my nails done at a shop once a month or every other month but I want to save money, it can get expensive. A regular manicure is typically $12-$20, depending where you go. My fave nail shop was $12, and without tip. The only new nail polish in the pics is the Nails Inc., Magnetic nail polish I got for my birthday from one of my BFF's

Birthday Gift - Beauty Goodies

This is a combined Christmas/Birthday gift from one of my BFF's, she got me a really cute gift that I loveLOVElove. It was my first time using the magnetic nail polish by Nails Inc., and it turned out pretty good! You can see the result's on an earlier post. A part of my gift was my VERY FIRST Chanel makeup! The only thing I have ever tried of Chanel is the perfume. This blush is awsome, the texture has a very smooth finish, and gives a natural dewy rose glow. The Dior mascara works amazing too, it gives me longer lashes. I always love bling, the Express stud's are really cute for everyday and work. Last but not least, gotta love Victoria Secret panties!

Magnetic Nail Polish

I've always wanted to try this polish, and I just got it as a Birthday present from one of my BFF. Defintely read the direction's before using this. The first time I tried it, I let my nails fully dry, and the magnetic effect wasn't working. I found a pretty good YouTube tutorial for directions.

Directions:
1.) Apply your base coat.
2.) Do one nail at a time. Apply 1 coat of the magnetic nail polish on one nail, and wait 5 seconds or so.
3.) Apply a 2nd VERY thick coat of the magnetic nail polish.
4.) Right away put the magnetic strip over the nail polish while it is wet. Hold the magnet VERY close to the nail without touching it for 10 seconds. You should see the effect right away, and if you don't that means your not holding the magnet close enough to your nail. (The magnetic effect only works while your nail is wet).
5.) Repeat 9 more times to each nail individually.
6.) Let dry for 5 mins or so and apply your top coat and voila, cool nails!

New Fave Nail Polish Color

I am obssessed with pinkish nude nail polish right now. The name of this polish is pretty funny.

A modern version of the french manicure

I saw this nail look on one of my fave YouTube vloggers - HollyAnnaRee, and wanted to give it a try. It turned out pretty spiffy! I chipped one slightly already though, but still looks good!

My new fave fall nail color: Essie - No more film

I am in love with navy nail polishes right now for fall. It's a nice neutral that can go with anything you are wearing.

The perfect amount of sparkles on my nails

I saw this look on Pinterest, & thought it'd be very easy to do, and ....... ta da! It was. I didn't even have to go out & buy anything, I had the right colors already at home.

1st: I applied my Poshe` base coat.

I JUST started using base coats this year. It really helps if you have a lot of ridges on your nails, and the polish helps fills/evens them out, and also helps your nail color smooth on more evenly & stay longer.

2nd: I applied 2 coats of my OPI nail polish in "so many clowns so little time". You can probably use any variation of this neutral color, or just 1 coat.

This is my FAVE OPI np. It's a good neutral, & it's buildable by applying more coats to increase the depth of color.

3rd: I applied my Revlon sparkle nail polish in "Stunning" on the tips of my nails, as if it's a french manicure. I applied 2 coats for the sparkles to actually show. You don't even have to worry about being neat or aligning the sparkles straight, I just free handed this part.

4th: I applied 1 coat of my Orly "Won't chip" top coat. I LOVE this No chip top coat. I got this at Ulta, & have been using this for the past 2 months, & it lasts for about 2 weeks. It dries within 2 minutes.

This top coat has made me go to my nail salon less. I use to get the no chip manicure once a month, for $25.00 & then a tip. Now I have been going once every 2-3 months just for a clean up & regular np.... And then I add my no chip at home. :)

I'm really obssessed with this look. This pic was from 2 weeks ago, & I just re-did my nails again with this. It's a fun way to dress up neutral colors & wear every day.

Shout out to Katy Perry's nail polish

Yey to the 1st entry! I can't sleep, way too much sugar today.

I am OBSSESSED with Katy Perry's new nail polish in: Shatter. I plan to wear a new color every week or month. This month for Valentines Day I am wearing a hot pink color by: Sinful Color($1.99) which can be bought @ Walgreens, OPI: Shatter($8.50) which can be bought in Ulta and participating salons, and OPI: top coat($8.50)

To apply:
1.) Apply 1-2 coats of the base until completly dry
2.) Apply only 1 coat of the shatter polish on top of dry base(if you put on top of wet nails it gets funky & won't work)
3.) The shatter drys up REAL freaky fast, & you can apply a top coat if you want to add shine(it looks better)

At first before I bought the nail polish I thought you can only put it with OPI nail polish but it works so far with Sinful Colors, Sally Hansen & Revlon(from the ones I've tried), it works just awsome with other brands!
