Some layering!

I have bought so many new NP 
this past couple of days 
that I don't know which one to use.

This is WnW MegaLast On a Trip for the base,
and Kleancolor Chunky Holo Purple.
Beautiful, bright combination! 
Couldn't capture it the way it is with my camera.
This pics are only so you guys have an idea of what it looks like. 




Then, since I love the way holo's look matte,
I added Essie Matte About You
It looks so pretty!

I'm in love!

I had a post scheduled for today already
so I was going to wait until tomorrow 
to post about this color,
but I CAN'T WAIT!
I'm so obsessed with it!
I can't stop looking at my nails. 
It goes so well with my skin tone
and it's just the type of colors that I like. 

Tropicalia is from the Wet n' Wild MegaLast collection.
They changed the bottle, the formula and the brush. 
I love everything that they did! 


I have heard a lot of negative comments about the new brush.
I liked it.
The round shape made it so easy 
to go around the corners of the nail
without coloring outside the lines. 
And the wide shape 
covered almost all of the nail. 
The formula is pretty thick and creamy
so full coverage can be achieved with one coat,
but I did two.



Tropicalia is a beautiful bright coral creme.
Perfect for Spring/Summer.
Right now they are on sale @ Walgreens,
until Saturday. 

Mini haul!

I'm taking advantage of the .99 cents sale
@ Walgreen's of the Wet n' Wild MegaLast Nail Polish
I have gotten this 3...



I'm still looking for  2% Milk, I Need a Refresh Mint, & Candy-licious.
I can't find them.
The displays are empty since before the sale. 
Also I needed a base and a top coat
so I got my favorite,  Bettina.
Which are 2 x $5 @ Walgreen's.

Cracked Medallion

I'm really loving this shimmer gold crackle. 
Looks so classy and clean. 
This is SC Forget Now for the base
and CG Cracked Medallion over it.

Cinderella is finally here!

I finally found Sinful Colors Cinderella


There has a huge fuss about this nail polish.
I do have to admit that it is beautiful!
My camera wouldn't really capture it's beauty,
but I'm sure all of you have seen pics of it before.
hahaha
I have a simple Casio camera 
so the pics of this color are not so accurate. 
And since it's been raining here,
 I had to take inside pics 
with flash or artificial light.

[this 3 coats with flash]

The next day I add CG Cracked Medallion.
Wow!
I'm in love with this combination!

My day yesterday!

Yesterday was an exhausting and eventful day!  
Some fun things, some bad things. 
I have pics to document the whole day! 
hahaha
I'm crazy like that!
I take way to many pics.
All with my cellphone. 

First, we went to the Coca Cola factory
because I won a box of Monster Energy.

Oh yeah!

Then, we went to Costco to have some pizza.


When we got home we got distracted by the new puppy...

 And Enrique got into some trouble.
He closed a door, a REALLY heavy door, 
on his little finger
and we couldn't get the door open.
It took us around 5 minutes to open it,
and we had to break the door nob. 
Worst experience of my life!

At the emergency room,
while we waited we saw a police car 
and that was the only way he finally stopped crying. 

This is his finger today...
seeing this pic actually made me cry. 

Well that was my day yesterday.
I have a lot of new pics of manis to share with you guys,
but I haven't been in the mood to post. 
But I will either today or tomorrow.

I'm crazy for blue!

I'm not a blue or green fan at all.
Besides the fact that most of them
stain your nails really bad,
I find that they don't look good 
with my skin tone. 

But I have to say that I love this color a lot!
This is SC Kissy.
It's a dupe for some colors that are already out there,
but this is cheaper. 
I can't buy those expensive brands
so I'm all for cheaper brands making dupes.

I do have to say that the down side is
that it stains your nails.
I used 2 coats of my base coat 
so my nails where safe from stains,
but when removing it, 
my fingers got all the stains. 
A cotton ball soaked in acetone 
removed most of the blueish tone. 
After that I went at it with at file 
and I got all the stains out.

[flash]

It's consistency reminds me a lot of Daddy's Girl.
It's really sheer and required 3 coats.
It's formula is like a jelly.
Pain in the ass to apply and remove
but it's a beautiful color.

Purple gone wild!

To keep up with my random manis,
I did a purple one.
Love it! 
I really love SC Amethyst.
Hope you guys like this one.
Any questions, let me know!

Chocolate moon!

I used SC Nirvana for the tips,
which is a beautiful chocolate smooth brown,
and Bettina Glamour Celebrate for the moon,
which is an amazing sparkly gold. 
I love it, and it a shame that I don't use it more often.

Half moon in the making...

I really don't know what else to say about this mani.
It's pretty much my style and what I like.
Love doing random nail art. 
Any questions let me know!
