Salon Perfect In Bloom

*Press Sample*
Thank Goodness it is Saturday!!!  This week has been quite a ride:) First things first I want to wish my Hubby a very Happy Birthday!!! And to say Holy Moly I can't believe I have been Blogging for 2 years!!! My 2 year Anniversary was 2 1/2 week ago and I totally spaced.  I just took a look at a few of my first post and WOW what a difference 2 years can make!!!

  Today I have 4 Petal Perfect Polish to Show you from Salon Perfect's In Bloom Collection. First up is Pocketful of Posies, a gorgeous Baby Pink Creme that is opaque in 2 coats:) Now for all of my light creme lovers you know that this is a rarity in this color arena!!! 2 coats and a coat of SV and Done!!!


Cupcake is a bright bubblegum pink:) This polish definitely has a cooler tone to it than your run of the mill pink! But that make this one stand out and I don't have another like it in my collection which is AWESOME!!!! 2 Coats and a coat of SV:)


Baby Blues is the perfect Summer Sky Blue!!!! This polish is my favorite out of the 4 and all I can say is I'm a sucker for Blue, especially blues that remind me of a perfect cloudless sky:) 2 coats and a Coat of SV. 


Up last is Smooth Sailing:) This polish is Baby Blues big brother, a little darker and a little richer but absolutely Gorgeous!!! I have this beauty on my toes right now and am totally in Love!!!! 2 coats and a coat of SV:) 


The formula for all of these colors were great, richly pigmented and super smooth. Both Blues stain slightly so make sure you have a good base coat on!!!! These beauties are available at Walmart for  $4.98 for a two pack *AWESOME DEAL ALERT*!!! Hope you have a fantastic rest of your weekend!!!!

Salon Perfect Neon Pop

Happy Tuesday Loves!!! Hope you are having a great start to your week:) My weekend was good, a little stressful, but really at 7mths pregnant a hangnail upsets me:( Today I have 2 absolutely HOTT polishes from Salon Perfect's Neon Pop Collection to show you!!!

Some of the products in this post were sent to me for review. I was not paid for my review of this product and all opinions are my own

First up is Traffic Cone:) This polish is a vibrant neon orange!!! and when I say Neon, I mean stop you in your tracks, attention grabbing neon!!! 2 easy coats and a coat of SV and done:) Just a heads up, make sure you moisturize really good before taking this polish off, it will help keep you cuticles from getting stained:)


The second polish I have for you today is Fired up Fuchsia:) This beauty is a super bright neon pink with a slight shimmer to it:) This beauty is a perfect summer toes color and will shine perfectly in the pool or sand:) 2 coats of this baby and 1 coat of SV:)


The thing I love most about these polishes it that they really don't need white undies and are opaque in 2 coats!!! and for the really good news, you can grab these babies in two packs at Walmart for $4.98:) 2 awesome summer colors without breaking the bank!!! and as warmer weather approaches I don't know about you but my wallet could sure use a break!!!

Leopard and Tips:)

Happy Thursday Dolls!!!!  Hope you all had a fabulous Memorial Day Weekend!!! As the wife of a Veteran, I salute the families of the fallen soliders who died in service of their country. I could only imagine the grief and loss that they experience!!!

On to the nail fun!!!! I was looking at Pinterest the other day (not an uncommon event at all!!!) and ran across a pin of some pretty fabulous nail art by Polish Art Addict you can see her original post here.  I used China Glaze For Audrey, Flip Flop Fantasy and Wet n' Wild Black for this mani:) I free handed the tips and leopard spots. Then I sealed it all up with 2 coats of SV.



I am super happy with the way this mani turned out. It is bright and fun and took no time at all. What do you think of this mani, do you get ideas from pinterest too???

Nail Art Fun

Happy Monday Ladies:) Hope you all had a fantastic weekend!!!! I was under the weather all weekend:( Can I just say I hate being sick!!!! Anyway last week I was perusing Pinterest and ran across this awesome Pedicure and just had to try my hand at it!!! Well after I did my toes I couldn't stop myself from doing my hands too!!!! For this Mani I used Wet and Wild Black as my base and for the designs I used regular acrylic paints (they pop better against such a dark base, without need for secondary coats) all followed up with a coat of SV:)



 And although I detest feet pics, here are my toes:)
My toes took approx 2 hours to do:( mostly because I couldn't reach my toes all that well because of my big preggo belly:) My hands took a little over 1 hour, but for results like this it was well worth my time!!! So, do you like it???

Zoya Bubbly Collection

Happy Tuesday Loves:) Hope all of you Mommies had a fabulous Mothers Day weekend!!! I know that I did:)  Anyway, I couldn't wait any longer to show you these fabulous six polishes from the Zoya Bubbly Collection:)  I have been so impressed with Zoya's Summer Collections and this is no exception!!! Bubbly is a collection of  Holographic Glitter infused Jelly's:) 
Some of the products in this post were sent to me for review. I was not paid for my review of this product and all opinions are my own
 First up is Binx, it is described as a orchid purple. I would say this polish is more of a medium purple/pink blend and absolutely Gorgeous!!!! Here is 3 coats and a coat of SV:)


Harper is a Cotton Candy Pink Jelly with a slight gold undertone:) This color is just perfect for Summer toes!!!! Here is 3 coats and a coat of SV:)


 Alma is up next:) This polish is a warm peach/gold metallic and is my least fav of this collection. Don't get me wrong this polish is absolutely stunning but it washes out my skin tone and makes me look sickly:( Here is 3 coats and a coat of SV!!!


 Jesy is one of my favs of this collection:) This polish is a rich coral/orange blend that reminds me of a summer sunset over the water. Perfection!!!! 3 coats and 1 coat of SV:)


 Stassi is a vibrant rich green with a gold sparkle that just sings in the sun!!! This polish should have come out back in March, talk about a St. Patty's day Bombshell!!! 3 coats and a coat of SV:)


 Finally Muse is my absolute fav from this collection!!! This polish is a rich Blue jelly with a very slight Gold undertone. This polish has so many different facets, I really just can't take my eyes off of it!!! 3 coats with a coat of SV:)


This collection is the counterpart to the Tickled collection , both are available now on www.zoya.com:)  you can grab the entire collection for $54 or $9 per color:) What are your favs from this collection???

Zoya Tickled Collection

Hey Dolls:) TGIF!!!! This week has been absolutely crazy!!!! Nesting has taken full effect in my house:) With the weeks flying by until my little girl is due, I have realized I still have a ton to get done... But this week I have been super productive!!!  I have painted the nursery and the hallway (No worries, I wore a mask and the hubby helped) Cleaned my entire house and finish all of the laundry!!! and I swatched the Zoya Tickled Collection:)

Some of the products in this post were sent to me for review. I was not paid for my review of this product and all opinions are my own

First up is Rooney, is a medium pink with definite purple undertones. Gorgeous and Classic all wrapped up in one polish:) Here is 2 coats with a coat of SV!!!


 Rocha is up next:) This Beauty is describes as a classic folly red but I disagree. This polish is a rich orange/red with a hidden shimmer, it is the perfect summer color. Here is 2 coats with a coat of SV:)


Kitridge is up next. This is by far my favorite polish in this collection!!! It is a bright bubblegum pink that pops even against my pale skin:) Here is 2 coats and a coat of SV! (btw my label says Kirtridge, but this color is listed on the Zoya website as Kitridge)


Wendy is a medium coral/melon pink that is stunning!!! This polish is not super bright but I have a feeling that this polish can hold it own against a tan:)


 Tilda is a gorgeous grass green:) This polish is the color of leaves when the sun shines through them:) I Love it! Here is 2 coats with a coat of SV!!!


Last in this stunning Collection is Ling:) Ling is a vibrant medium blue, This is darker than sky blue, I would say it is almost pool blue just a little darker and beautiful!!! Here is 2 coats with a coat of SV:)


This collection is available at Zoya.com:) You can grab the whole collection for $54 or each color for $9.  My must haves for this collection are Kitridge, Rocha, and Ling:) Which ones are your favorites?
