Sally Hansen HD manicure updated

I decided to add some paint splatters onto my manicure just for fun =)

Sally Hansen HD collection

I went to Walgreens yesterday w/ NO intention on buying nail polish until I saw this collection...I was intrigued since it looked so flashy and shimmery so I tried a couple colors on my nails and fell absoloutely in love with all of them...they;re SOOOOO shimmery and sparkly, moreso than any other nail polishes I own...I guess it has to do w/ their new formula they put mica crystals in em? I remember reading about it in someone else's blog...I don't know for sure...one thing I do know is that these are fantastically bright

Formula on these were a little sheer...I put on 3 pretty thick coats and I still would have put on one more if my friend hadn't showed up at my house...I was like, ya gotta wait for me to paint my nails...he was like, uhhh....and didn't say anything more haha

Anyway, these are so shiny, sparkly, shimmery, iridescent, duochromey...etc...they're definitely worth having =)

Franken Mad as a Hatter wannabe

So I really wanted Mad as a Hatter but I havent been able to find it anywhere...so I decided to use all my RBL glitters to make my own version =P

I love how it turned out...it was super sparkly, yet subtle...if that makes sense...and it didn't look like the glitter polishes that some 5 yr old would wear which is how some glitters on me end up looking like...

sorry about the repetitive-like pics...i just thought it was so pretty and i took a ton of pics so i figured i'd post em just to show how colorful and sparkly it was

RBL Surf Collection Manicure! + Purple Haze

OMG I am loving this collection sooo much! The colors are sooo gorgeous and the formulas for these were incredible...all of them were 2 coaters...these are the first non-glitter polishes of RBL that I've tried (I own Locavore, Frugalista, and Look Rich Be Cheap which are my fave glitters out of everything I own) and I'm sooo loving the formula and application =D

I literally screamed when I received the packages cause I've been waiting for these for sooo long and missed the first pre-sale...anyway without further adieu, here's 360, Diddy Mow, Bangin, and Purple Haze (which was not part of the surf collection but I thought it'd go well with my manicure)
360: dusty greyed olive green w/ the slightest shimmer
Diddy Mow: dusty blue-grey with a touch of green w/ slight shimmer
Bangin: Hot, bright red w/ orange undertones
Purple Haze: Medium slightly greyed purple

Sephora by OPI

I haven't posted in awhile cause my camera memory was full and I keep forgetting to clear out the pics so I've been using my phone...

I wanted some funky colors for this manicure, so I chose this super dark grey, green tinted greyed teal, and orange...the teal is Sephora by OPI - Ocean Love Potion...I've been wanting Rescue Beauty Lounge's Surf Collection and ordered it awhile back, but since it hasn't been shipped out yet, I figured this color would have to do for now...I havent seen the RBL colors in person, but from swatches online, Ocean Love Potion seems to be similar to RBL 360...anyway, all three colors are amazing i love them =)

Purple Marble Manicure

I decided I wanted to do a marbling effect to make it look like marble stone (not water marbling) so I dotted white and the Sally Hansen purple over the Essie Purple...the first hand I tried it on was my left, didn't turn out like how i wanted, second hand was when i started doing it at a angle and acheived that marble look...unfortunately i'm outside right now so i don't know the names of the colors off the top of my head...i also added a thin border of the glittery Lippmann polish, altho i did a whole border on my left and only my tips on my right...which looks better guys? all around or just the tips?

Urban Outfitters Sponge Manicure

For this manicure, I used Urban Outfitter's Blue4 and Pink 2. These two colors were both jellys and I used 2 coats for both. I then sponged on black with a eyeshadow brush. I put on square rhinestones, and being the idiot that I am, decided to go play basketball + football without putting on a topcoat on the rhinestones...I came home and both my middle fingers and pinkys were missing rhinestones haha...I'm actually a lil suprised all 10 didn't fall off...anyway this was just a fun/easy manicure

Deborah Lippmann I'm Not Innocent + Wake up in Vegas Manicure

I was so excited to find Deborah Lippman's new colors at Nordstroms the other day, so I picked up I'm Not Innocent (Peachy Nude) , Wake up in Vegas (Beigy Grey) , and My Old Flame (Siren Red)

I love love love LOVE these colors they are all so gorgeous...I usually have a hard time with reds and nudes because I hate how these colors make my hands look red...but I'm Not Innocent and My Old Flame made my hands look so pretty and delicate...the one word that kept popping up in my head when I saw these two colors was "elegant"
