I Want it NOW!!

And It is Friday AGAIN!!!! So another simple mani for you today:) The base is SC black on black with random triangles taped off and Smitten polish I Want It Now over:) This particular polish I got several years ago (pretty sure it is not available at this time) in a grab bag and just never used it, but couldn't seem to part with it either it was just tooo pretty!!! Well I decided today is the day, and I couldn't be happier!!! I Want It Now is a dark green tinted base with green, teal and a few black glitters:) And It is not a topcoat eater like I would have thought:)




Check out those Macros!!!! Such a pretty color!!!!  Have a great weekend!!!

Unconventional Color Combo:)

TGIF!!! Who is ready for the Weekend:) ME!!!! It has been crazy busy this week, with the kiddo out of school Mon, Tues, and Wed. having a seven yr old and 5mth old in the house is exhausting, add in 3 dogs and a cat = one tired momma!!!  I saw a mani on pinterest the other day with a super pastel purple with and accent of penny talk by Essie and got inspired:) I haven't used penny talk in such a long time I figured I would break it out!!! I didn't wanna go with a pale purple, I wanted something unusual:) I grabbed Zoya Blu, one of my favorite pale blues even if it does take 3 coats to not be streaky... and then added some pointy accents with Penny Talk and tape!!!! 

I really do love this unconventional color combo!!! It is different, edgy, but delicate all the same!!! and did I mention easy:) What are your favorite unusual color combos???? Hope you Dolls have a fabulous and relaxing weekend!!!!

Different Angles

So I decided to do a different take on a taped mani:) I saw a mani like this on pinterest done in black, white, and grey's that was beautiful, seen here:) I had these colors out recreating a pinterest pedi seen here.  The pedi wasn't a total success but not a total fail either:)  So I decided to use the same colors for my Mani.  The base color I used is Sally Hansen "Hard to Get".  I followed that up with OPI "Pink of Hearts 2",  Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear "Golden-I" and finally Finger Paints Magnetic "Electro Midnight" (no magnet used). All followed with a generous coat of SV and ta-da:) This mani was adorable, but it did take a long time:( Waiting for each layer to dry even with SV between coats was a pain!


What do you think worth the time or a waste of time???
