NOTD: Lisa Frank

Okay, so  this one is awesome!! I love it,  love it!! These are my wonderful sister's nails :) This one started with Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear: Celeb City. This color covers completely in just one coat and it is a dazzling silver polish, if you ask me! :) Then I stamped it with Essie Watermelon, Sephora Perfectly Plum and ULTA Dance Teal Dawn with the m57 Konad stamping plate! :) and wallah! enjoy!

NOTD: Ocean Bubbles

Ok so it has been almost a month since my last post and I doubt if anyone still checks this blog, but the busiest part of my year is almost over so I have had just enough time to do this simple, but in my opinion really cute, manicure and post it on my blog! :) 

So I started with two coats of Essie Coat Azure, which is one of my favorite colors of all time, and layered Santee Ocean Blue Goitter :) I love this polish that my wonderful sissy found for me because it has large turquoise and silver pieces of glitter along with smaller silver pieces to give it an even more layered look because of the two sizes of glitter! :D Anyway, then I finished off this manicure with Essie Matte About You. Enjoy!

Sorry!

Ok, so I know that another nail of the day post is LONG overdue, but things have been pretty hectic lately! I just ordered a new polish, and it's on it's way, so hopefully within the next day or two I will have a new post up for you guys. :)

NOTD: Antique Bouquet

Ok, so I haven't posted in a while because my grandpa passed away on Monday April 18. It was peaceful and it was his time, but it has still been something that required my undivided attention as I was on Spring Break this past week so I was around the family as much as possible. Anyway, one a more positive note, here's the NOTD!

For this one, I started with Essie Mochacino then added gold medal flowers from Viva La Nails :) they were a lot thinner and more durable than I was anticipating! Then I did some dots in Essie Playa Del Platinum.

Swatches: OPI Burlesque Glitters!

Hello everybody, as you may know, OPI developed a twelve polish collection for the movie, Burlesque, that released in December of 2010. Six of these twelve colors are Glitters, and the other six are Shimmers. I have collected all six of the Glitters, and am working on the Shimmers. For now I will post swatches of the Glitters, and if I ever complete the Shimmer half of the collection, I will probably post those to the blog as well. Here we go! :) This half of the collection takes two coats to become opaque and looks awesome in the sun! :) None of these pictures really do the glitter justice unfortunately...




This first one is called OPI Show It & Glow It! This is a mostly purple glitter polish with some silver, blue, gold, green, and red glitter pieces mixed in. 




Next up is OPI Simmer & Shimmer. This one, much like the one before, contains multi-colored glitter, but the main color this time is blue! 

Here are some natural sunlight pictures:


Next on the list is OPI Bring on the Bling! This one also has the multi-colored glitter, but is mainly gold. :)

And agin, here are some photos under natural sunlight.


This next one is OPI Extra-va-vaganza! This one is much like the other three, but the main color is a rusted, penny-like orange :)



Next, we have OPI Glow Up Already! This one is also like the others, but the main color is green :)


Last, but certainly not least, is OPI Sparkle-icious. This one doesn't have one particular base color, but instead is a mixture of the gold, blue, and purple glitters. Other bloggers have been calling this one Marti Gras in a bottle, and I have to say I agree :)
