Pegasus

Hello everyone! I'm excited for today's post because I've been wanting this polish for a while ever since I saw it on Tumblr and when it sold out, I would get so frustrated. But I was lucky to grab it as soon as I can when she restocked on it. Yes it's Nicole from Nailing It and her Hare polish! I have a total of 4 but I believe this is the first one I'm showing, LOL. I'll swatch the others later and post them up eventually... I wanted to post them together but my camera can't pick up the color for one of them so that's why it's been pushed back for so long.

Here is Pegasus of Hare Polish, isn't it a DREAM?!♥ So beautiful and adorable heh :). When I think of Pegasus, I think of the horse in Hercules the cartoon. :P Pegasus is a light lilac purple creme with silver hexagon and small round silver glitters. This is shown in 3 coats but you could use 2, I just had some uneven application lol. I love this polish to death and I'm so glad I made it home in time for them to get onto Etsy. I should've gotten another one so I could use that for a giveaway, but perhaps in the future! :D



Thanks for stopping by and happy polishing! :)

Star Gazer 307

Hello everyone! Following yesterday's post on Star Gazer 308, I'll continue about my eBay purchase that I wanted to get after see Nihrida's haul post on these two polishes and a few others also. 

Star Gazer 307 is a darkened base with a purple, yellow, green multichrome shimmer and it is shown in 3 coats and 1 layer of tc. This is beauuutiful polish, and I think it is most similar to MAC Mean & Green or Orly Space Cadet. Enjoy the picture yummyness :)



Thanks for stopping by & happy polishing! :)

Star Gazer 308

Hello everyone! Hope you all are having a good week so far. Today's post is on one of the two polishes that I purchased off eBay as soon as I saw Nihrida post about her haul with them. The price wasn't so bad either, it was $8 for both polishes :).

This one is Star Gazer 308 which is a darkened black base with purple shimmer and it is shown in 2 coats with 1 layer of tc. I love the color and the "duochrome" in this polish isn't noticeable much on the nails as you can slightly see in the bottle. Nonetheless, a great color and there's probably similar polishes to this one though. You can kind of see the duochrome in the bottles in the first and last pictures.

Blue Satin Layering

Hello everyone! I know it's been a long time since I've last posted about my nails, I admit it was really hard to balance 2 jobs and school. I've recently quit my first job (kept my second) because the hours were too little and I was earning more at my second job. So now I have two days a week to have my nails whatever color I like, but the rest of the days, I'll be in "neutral adult" colors for my job. It's retail and it's a bit higher end so they want it to be more professional, but whatever! I still love all my nail polish colors♥ especially my BLUES AND GREENS!

So this is the mani. I'm currently sporting until tomorrow night, before I have to take them off for work. I received on my birthday Chanel Blue Satin and Chanel Peridot. The funny thing is that I already bought Peridot and when he saw them on my nails, he thought to himself, shit... lol. But thankfully he still has the receipt so I can exchange it for another Chanel polish. But nonetheless the thought was sweet. :) He knows what colors look good and he has good taste as well haha.

I used one coat of Chanel Blue Satin on my nails and it's definitely a one coater! :) It's a dark sapphire blue with a hint of blue shimmer. You don't see it much in real life but you definitely see it in the bottle -__-. But I felt it was a bit vampy for me so I layered it with CND Sapphire Sparkle and my bf loved it as much as I did. The other two photos were taken outside even though it was cold, it was sunny so I thought it was perfect to show them off. And the best thing about taking them outside was that you see the blue to purple shift of Sapphire Sparkle!♥♥
