Zoya Fire And Ice Swatches

Hello My Sweet Nail-Art Lovers
Today i am posting a swatches of new Fire And Ice collection by Zoya.
I was so impressed with the colors that even ordered another set from ZOYA.COM, to be a prize in my upcomming contest.
My Favorite color from the entire collection is probably deep sparkle cherry Valery.
Another interesting thing is that i think they have renamed this Fire and Ice collection to be called Fame. Bow the same set is listed and Fame on zoya.com, but those that i got are called Fire and Ice, even though the colors are identical.

Another Franken that I heart so much!

I love me some dark colors & hidden shimmers, so I again, tried to create a new polish for me. I'm also trying way hard to save money, so I'm getting desperate, lol.
If only I could remember what I used!!! I am sooo sorry. I meant to take pictures along the way, but things just kept getting added, and it was utter chaos! I made this about a month ago, so my mind, as hard as it tried to remember, failed me :(

Shawn Sparkles


Not quite Robin Sparkles, or Jessica Glitter, but it'll have to do...

Today's manicure utilizes a polish that I was told (by Zoya herself) that I was not allowed to wear, since it clashes with my skin tone. :-P I love this polish too much to let something like skin tone get in the way of wearing it! I wanted something simple today, for more than one reason... I fell asleep on the couch last night, which ALWAYS gives me a horrible 'crick in the neck' that lasts for a week or more, and the second reason was that I was in a hurry to get across town. Sorry for no post yesterday, I passed out on the couch after work and woke up this morning- gotta love having to work the day after midnight movie showings. :-P I got 3 hours of sleep. AWESOME. Anyway, to the manicure, I used one of the new OPI Burlesque glitters, ack!! THey're so sparkly. This pic doesn't show any of the glitz! (even though I added a blurry pic to sort of show the sparkle!) Also, ignore the middle finger, I broke it, and I had to mend it, so it's wonky looking.



I used Zoya Shawn as a base, with OPI Glow Up Already sponged on the tip. Topped it off with 2 coats of Seche Vite Top Coat.

Let's go to the mall!

A LITTLE BIT OF CHRISTMAS

I will be attending another Young Nails class this Monday. I can't wait! It is going to be focused on Christmas nail art so look for new exciting Christmas designs to be posted. Soooo excited :)










Blue Konad Funky French....

I'm not real sure what this design is called, lol, if anyone knows, pleeeeease tell me :)
I started with my normal #415 from 10, for the pinkish base and a coat of SV. I then did the Konad design using Sally Hansens Blue Blast and another coat of SV., When that was dry, I taped my nails off, leaving my tips uncovered, and painted them with the same blue, that I used for the Konad, and a final coat of SV.

Cocktails Anyone?......2 Konads & Funky French

I went to Ulta a few days ago to cash in on my rewards, level 9 baby!!! Well I walked out with 12 polishes for a grand total of $3.12!!!!! Anyways, this was one of them, Ulta's Cocktails Anyone. This is a beautiful dark purple. The application was great, and this is 2 coats! I wanted to try Konading over it, and of course next thing I know, I've done 2 Konads, and made my last one a Funky French :) There are tons of pics, sorry, lol, I just couldn't pick my faves.

Here it is all by herself




Here I used China Glaze's Chords for the Konad design, actually it's a design from a Bundle Monster plate. BM20




I then tried it with China Glaze's Harmony and Bundle Monster plate BM19.



Then I added my black tips, YAY!
