Wet 'n Wild Correction Tape

Happy Friday everyone! This is a multi colored equal sized glitter from the On the Prowl halloween collection from Wet 'n Wild.

Now there was some confusion over the name of this, but I have an inkling of what happened. The initial promo pictures had a white polish that weren't in the actual displays, and I have a feeling that Correction Tape was actually initially a white nail polish, and something happened with the naming or the polish. Because a multi-colored glitter has nothing to do with correction tape... ahaha, and it's suspicious that there was a white and it disappeared.

Aaaanyhow. I tried this over OPI's Skull and Glossbones, OPI's Who The Shrek Are You, and OPI's Sparrow Me The Drama, and China Glaze Snow. I liked it best over the white and grey, especially for fall.

Here's a few pictures of the bottle so you can see what it looks like and all the colors in there.


This is the full manicure with Wet 'n Wild Correction Tape over OPI Sparrow Me The Drama.




That's my little bf in the background ahah :)
This is definitely hard to capture because of the way the light hits the glitter, but the colors are very pretty. It's purple, blue, gold and black glitter, equal amounts, equal sizes. Very cute.

This is it over a few other colors, China Glaze Snow (white), OPI Skull & Glossbones (grey), and OPI Who The Shrek Are You (green).


As I said, I liked it the best over grey, it was a great background for the glitters.



What do you guys think? Did you get any of the Halloween collection?

Wet 'n Wild Tangled In My Web

Hello! This is a black glitter for the On The Prowl Wet 'n Wild Halloween collection, Tangled In My Web.

I just bought a bottle of Who The Shrek Are You? from the OPI Shrek collection and it is a fantastic halloween color, so I decided to try it over that and over OPI Flit A Bit orange. If you guys want to see it over any other colors just ask and I'll try my best!

This is Wet 'n Wild Tangled In My Web over Who The Shrek Are You.




I gotta say I absolutely LOOOVE both of these. Who The Shrek is such a pretty green on my skin tone, and Tangled looks so cute over everything. I love black glitter!

Cute! Great halloween polish but really just a good all around polish!

I'm Back Baby!!

Hello all!

I'm excited to be back, can you tell!? Ahahah. I'm done my summer courses, done working, and starting my discipline in engineering. Life is good and I got some time on my hands to do my favorite thing, painting my nails and sharing it with you all!

For this post I'm actually just going to post a whole bunch of random pictures that I took here and there that I didn't love enough to make a whole post about. I wasn't going to post them initially but there's lots of things that I don't like that other people do, so maybe some of you will like some of them, and you can have a bad manicure that can still spark ideas and inspiration in some people, so I thought why not just show them anyway. So today I'm showing all my random duds, in no particular order!


This is China Glaze Flying High with OPI Silver Shatter



Now this is OPI Here Today Aragon Tomorrow, with Sinful Colors San Francisco over the top. I find Aragon way to dark and San Fran too light, but the mix of them is absolutely beautiful.


This is a super cool combination but incredibly bright and loud hah! It is a neon orange, Essie Bright Tights, stamped with black and dotted with Essie Watermelon. I really liked it! But it was a bit too crazy for me.



This is Essence Fivepocket Grey freehand dotted with OPI Stranger Tides and China Glaze Shower Together. I wore it on one hand with the other hand painted just with Stranger Tides.





This is Teenage Dream over China Glaze Pelican Grey.


This is an OPI matte black, I forget the name, stamped with China Glaze Passion.


Hope you enjoyed the picture spam! Expect posts every few days! Much love!

Milani Jewel FX Gems plus China Glaze Lemon Fizz

Lemon Fizz is a streaky mess.Yes I said it. Lemon Fizz is from the Up and Away collection from China Glaze, and I find that all of the pastels were incredibly streaky and hard to apply. The pastel yellow, peach and mint green looked so beautiful in the bottle but absolutely horrendous on my skin tone. My sister has a paler skin tone with pink undertones and they looked nice on her, so if you're paler don't let me put you off.

But good news for olives, I found a way to make Lemon Fizz wearable! Introducing Milani Jewel FX Gems. It is apparently a fairly close dupe for Deborah Lippman's Happy Birthday. I didn't think I'd like it that much but it's actually pretty cute looking!This is 2 coats Lemon Fizz and 1 coat Gems.

Fairy-tale combination! Peri-Wink-Le and Make a Comet-ment

Hello! I've been busy trying to make this blog look unique and interesting yesterday and today, but I'm taking a break to show you one of my favorite combinations.

This is one of the prettiest nail layering combos I've ever come up with - there's something fairy-like about it, it's beautiful. Really hard to capture on camera though.

It's 2 coats of China Glaze's Peri-Wink-Le and 2 coats of Nicole by OPI's Make a Comet-ment. They are both beautiful on their own, and I was surprised how nice Peri-Wink-Le is on me. Lots more pics after the jump!
