Lynnderella Snow Angel

Hi everyone! I hope you're all having a lovely holiday season. :) Today I've got some pics of a very beautiful polish that I'm lucky to have, Lynnderella Snow Angel. 

How gorgeous! This was a while ago, but I'm pretty sure this is one coat of Snow Angel over OPI I Vant To Be A-Lone Star. This is one of the most unique polishes I own! How did you guys fare over Christmas, if you celebrate? I got a few polishes myself that I can't wait to show you! I hope you're all well, I kind of feel like I'm talking to myself. I have to apologize for my extended unexplained absence, and I really don't have a good reason to justify it. Things got a little busy and stressful for a while, and after life had settled down I had been gone for so long that I felt guilty and I wasn't sure if I would be welcome back, so I just stayed away. But I'm hoping you'll all forgive me and I can get back into the swing of this whole blogging thing. :)

Review: Born Pretty Store

Good day, my beautiful swans! How are all of your lovely selves today? I've got a real-deal honest-to-goodness REVIEW for all of you today! 

This is my first time trying anything from Born Pretty Store and I was really excited! I chose these super awesome nail studs because I've been really into studs lately and it seemed like the perfect opportunity to try them out!

The base is two coats of OPI Nein! Nein! Nein! OK Fine! which is a lovely dark gray with a slight greenish cast. I just put a layer of topcoat on and then used a pair of tweezers to place the studs on the base of my nails and stick them on. 

I really loved the studs! I thought they looked great especially with the dark gray, and they instantly made my nails look a lot cooler and more interesting. They stayed on pretty well, too. I even washed my hair and although some of them did pop off, I was surprised that most of them managed to stay put! Obviously they do stick up but that's kind of impossible to get around since they're nail studs, so it's not an issue as long as you remember not to pick at your nails. 

The package did come with plenty of studs and I'm sure they'll last me a while! They were all snug in a bubble mailer when they arrived. Overall I'm quite satisfied with this product and would absolutely recommend them! 

And as a special treat for you all here's a fabulous 10% off code to Born Pretty!

So how do you feel about the studded look? I know I'm a little late to the party but I'm glad I made it anyway!

Hello everyone!

Well! It's been a while, hasn't it? I've missed all of your lovely shining faces. It's taken me a while to get myself together, but I've got a spare minute and I thought that I'd try to ease myself back into this whole blogging thing.

Thanks to Leslie for helping me with the photo problem, I owe you one! Hopefully you all don't hate me now and still want to see some nail stuff. I thought I'd show you some of the manis that I've done since I've been away.

Okay I'll be honest, I have no idea what the base color for this one was. I think it might have been Zoya Kristen? Don't quote me on that. On top is Essie As Gold As It Gets

OPI I Don't Give a Rotter-dam!

Ooohhhh I don't remember the base for this one either... on top is Icing Rockstar From Mars

Layla Turquoise Wave

Zoya Adina

Zoya Charla

Milani Bolting Blue + Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Ring A Ding

Sinful Unicorn + Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Multi-faceted

Aaand Barielle Hideaway + some off-brand dollar store polish that smells like glue.

Goodness me! This isn't all of it, I've still got some more stuff to show you all, but I think it's enough for one post. How's everyone been? Tell me everything I've missed! I've got so much to catch up on, what's new in the nail world? Fill me in!

Hi everyone

Hellooooo! I was going to make a post with a bunch of the manis that I've done over the time that I've been gone, except when I tried to upload photos it said that I didn't have enough storage space? Apparently I've filled 99% of my Picasa space and 20% of my gmail space. I don't even know what that means. I don't have Picasa downloaded so I'm not sure how I've used any of it so I don't know how to empty it out. Can anyone help? I'd really like to get back in the blogging game but there's no way I'm paying for extra storage!
