Bunnies and Carrots!

Hey guys! Sorry about the lack of a post yesterday, I was slacking! But I'm here today with something super cute to make up for it! I wanted to do something else with bunnies since Easter is only a few days away, but I didn't want to do the same thing that I had done on the other two, so I got to thinking. What do bunnies love? Carrots! I know the bunny we used to have did anyway, his name was Muffin :)

So I didn't want to do the normal Easter pastel colors for this one, I decided to do a matte background instead for a bit of a change. I started with two coats of Nicole by OPI wild blue yonder matte, the bunnies are just a plain ol white (the same one I always use, it's SC snow me white), the pink in the ears and the noses of the bunnies is OPI the lifeguard makes me blush. The carrots are Julep Hayden, with the darker orange stripes of Loreal boozy brunch, and the leaves are Color Club Twiggie.

I was super happy with how they came out, I think they are adorable! And the old man loved the expressions on the bunnies faces, heh ;) It's the same look our dogs get when they are licking a bowl or something, we call it crazy eyes ;)

What do you guys think?

Until next time! Happy painting!

Nicole by OPI Respect the World matte

Hey guys! I recently broke out one of the mattes in my stash, this beauty was found at Walmart randomly on a shelf, I had never seen it before but *had* to have it. I told the old man that he could put it in my stocking, which he did ;)

I used two coats of this beautiful polish, and should have waited to take pics in the sun because with the flash it looks a bit more blue than it actually is. It's more of a teal color, but honestly it doesn't matter what color it is, it's beautiful!! I didn't use a top coat because I'm not to thrilled with the matte one that I have, so I just went without to show the effect of the polish :)

Oh and this post starts with the new camera ;)

What do you guys think? I LOVE it! I think it's similar to the OPI suede polishes which is never a bad thing!

Until next time, happy painting!

Epic haul and nail mail!

Hey guys! Over the weekend I went a little crazy on the polish, I couldn't help myself lol.

The Color Club boho set contains from left to right nomadic in nude, earthy angel, new boehemian, shabby drab, rad nomad, red-ical gypsy and stuck on you basecoat.



From Walgreens I found the whole brand new limited edition Wet N Wild color icon polishes (these were also ones I found for other ladies). From left to right we have, rockin rubies, 24 carats, give me a price quote, cost is no issue, believe me it's real, it's all in the cut, back alley deals, and diamond in the rough.

I'm waiting on about 17-20 more in the mail very shortly too! Wow, I need to update my stash list lol.

Until next time! Happy painting!!

Purple ombre nails :)

Tonight I wanted to do something different, so I thought a skittle mani would be awesome, but why stop there, how about a water marbling skittles mani?! Yea it was an epic fail *pout*

I wanted to do something quick and easy that I hadn't done before, so I decided on purple ombre :) It's like a gradient but instead of being all on one nail you space it out, then add a glitter over top of all of them to make it a bit more uniform.

Here's how it turned out.

Starting from my thumb to my pinky

OPI- play till midnight

PURE ICE- no means no

CHINA GLAZE- senorita bonita

SINFUL COLORS- dream on, and verbena

topped off with Nicole by OPI one less lonely glitter.

What do you think?

Happy painting!
