Hey Dollies! Omg One more week till Christmas! are we all excited? that is of course if the world doesn't end on Friday! Let's hope it doesn't! Well anyways today I have for you a beautiful polish by Naild'it Unique Nail Polish, Andrea creates such beautiful mixtures of glitter and this one is right up my alley because it's matte Glitter in my favorite colors! I introduce to you Violet B Wild.

Violet B Wild- Is a mixture of Large and small white matte hexes, purple,red and blue matte glitter  in a clear base that vary in sizes it is absolutely stunning! and as soon as I saw it i knew i wanted to put it over a lilac base ! The formula for Violet B Wild was extremely smooth and all the glitters laid completely flat which is an A+ in my book

Life Update & Polish

Hello Ladies!! It feels like I have been away from blogging forever! I've truly missed it but I have been uber busy with some side nail projects for the holiday season. Oh and of course with life such as school and work ..nothing new,but yeah my term is close to over and at my job I have now 3 consecutive days off which will give me a great amount of time to work on things like my blog. Which is great news because I have a ton of ideas for holiday manicures and stuff. Besides that I have also been working on researching suppliers in order to start my own Indie Line!...I know,I know A LOT of people already do it and You probably don't want to see another girl throwing glitter into a bottle and selling it online. But In all honesty I feel like I could give you guys something different and fresh but yeah anyways that's later down the road. :) So yeah that's it for my quick life update so on to the polish!
        Today I have some Hare Polish for you! from Nikole's new Fall 2012 collection called Finders Keepers.I had Been eyeing Golden Years for a long time after she released her swatch pictures until finally I convinced my hubby to sign on to my Etsy and buy it for me :D (Thank You Hunny)
Golden Years Is a  Navy Jelly Base PACKED with golden hexes,squares,flecks iridescent blue glitter and god knows what else..point is that it's freaking beautiful!

3 coats of Golden Years with Top Coat No Underwear.
Well See you Ladies Tomorrow with another post!! :)
XOXO

31 Day Challenge:Day 29-Supernatural

"Wazzuuupp" :) see i'm posting more often now, YAY! Day 29 girls, something inspired by the supernatural,hm I had nail art block when it came to this like what in the world am I gonna do? then I remembered something that I always to try but would never ever mess around with. know what that is? The Ouija Board. For those that don't know what it is, in simple words it is a way to connect or I guess speak to the dead through questions you ask and answers the "spirits" give you in form of letters that form a word....Creepy no? Anyone out there ever played with one of these? Well yeah that is what i WANTED my manicure to be but instead it came out like a whole bunch of letters and numbers, I mean that is what the board is but still It's nothing like what I wanted my mani to l LOL....FAIL maybe the only thing that wasn't a fail was the wood backdrop in order to replicate a real wooden board. For that I used the fan brush method :)

    Pahlish-Great Wide Open

    NailsByDiana has officially gone SHORT :( no more stiletto nails for a while, know what's the worst part? that my nails decided to break on the same day my Hungry Caterpillar Manicure was being shared on Facebook by two nail art pages, and the comments that people were posting about my nail shape were pretty mean and straight rude. I think my nails got their feelings hurt and broke! LOL well whatever that's life people will be assholes & nails will break from time to time. However I will let my nails grow out again because I can't stand to see myself with short nails It's just not comfortable. I was thinking of not blogging anymore until they were ready to be shown again but what the hell I love blogging! and I doubt I can neglect this blog for months. So please my dear readers bear with me while I go through this growing process :)

    Brucci-Snow White(2 coats)
