A Homer-un?

Wow. you guys almost got a nail design that I hated, but I managed to finish this one under the gun with 5 min to spare. I was having a 'bad nail day' today and despite painting for 3 hours, nothing I did was satisfactory. Finally, I came up with this design, which was inspired by a few comments on the Flintstone's post about 'interactive' nail design. This one lets you have Homer say different phrases!

I used American Apparel Manila as a base for Homer, Color Club Best Dressed List for his stubble, Sally Hansen Professional Lavender Cloud for his eyes, American Apparel Hassid to outline, and Zoya Yummy for the background. For the speech bubble nails. I used Sally Hansen Professional Lavender Cloud as a base, with American Apparel Hassid for the black, then for the backgrounds, I used Essie Foot Loose for the pinky, CND Electric Orange for the ring, Zoya Yummy for the middle, and Pure Ice Wild Thing for the index. Two coats of Seche Vite top coat topped it off!

Hello My Sweet Nail art Lovers.
Here is my my nail art from last week, i was working really hard to make this manicure, and i believe it turned great. Unluckily pics dint turned very well, these light paints always gets invisible by the flash of the camera.
Anyway i recently got some more paints, and planning to do more hand painted manicures. I hope you ll enjoy this one.

Halloween is coming fast!! So I decided to try some of my oranges....

Rarely do I wear orange polish, okay scratch that, I've never worn a full mani of orange, yet when I look in my drawers, I see quit a few, *shrugs*. What better time to try these, than Halloween, which btw, is my all time FAVE holiday to celebrate! The first one I grabbed is an unamed OPI, that my sister gave me a while ago. Well I asked the experts on MUA, and they said it is Osaka To Me Orange, and I believe they are right.

OPI Osaka To Me Orange, tell me this isn't just the best Halloween orange?!!?

and just because I can't leave any mani alone, I added China Glaze's Dreamsicle over top. I actually really liked this look!

I was then asked to layer the China Glaze Dreamsicle over a black. When I did, I gasped, it was BEAUTIFUL and so unexpected. I had no idea, all those colors were in there!!

Petites Color Fever......

I love me some Petites! I purchased these at a local Rite-Aid a few months ago, and you have to see the AMAZING colors, these have. Application doesn't get much smoother, and all were only 2 coats. They are so bright!! They area still available in my area, and cost about $1.99, which is a little much, considering they are half the size of regular polishes, and are drugstore. Oh well, color beats the price.

This is Wild plum. Such a glowy bright fun purple!

Rasberry Ice, Do you see how bright this is!?!? This would make a great pedi!

Last of all is Black Diamond, I wish I was able to get a better picture in the sun, this is very holo in real life!!!

I say, get these if you can. Honestly, these colors are sooo bright!!!

Who Nicole by OPI really should have teamed up with

Adam Lambert nail polish

What the Blieb?!

A few days ago I read about Nicole by OPI's newest collection inspired by Justin Bieber. While I'm all for collaborations, I nearly choked on my drink when I found out. Why? The kid doesn't even wear nail polish! If Nicole by OPI would've wanted to rock it with a hot male singer, that's current, talented AND infatuated with nail polish, Adam Lambert would've been an excellent pick. But of course I'm biased, being the fangirl that I am.

Why didn't anyone tell me about quick drying top coat?!

Don't mess with my nails!

Adam Lambert doesn't shy away from wearing make up and nail polish. He likes to wear dark colors and is often spotted wearing Black Onyx, Russian Navy and Yoga-ta Get This Blue by OPI. See why he and OPI should get it on? Adam tells us he likes to do his own nails and he prefers his nail polish to be chipped. Boys will be boys.. There was even a rumor - that was debunked quickly - that claimed Adam lashed out on a fan when he was waiting for his nail polish to dry, when somebody grabbed him and ruined his nails. Hilarious.

Two tough guys discussing nail polish

Dear Adam, if you don't want to be Nicole's nail polish muse, would you at least be mine?
