Such Beauty

Work has gotten better now, I've gotten two shifts from my friend and finally got scheduled for one day! Lol it doesn't sound good that it's only one day but believe me, it feels good that they actually "want" me to be there and work. More work means more money and more money brings in more nail polishes! Anyways, I love my new uniform that I didn't have to pay for! Jeggings + cute tank and new flip flops♥ So comfortable and cute! Anyways since I liked Calypso Blue so much, I decided to add Hidden Treasure and oh my goodness, what such beauty on my nails! LMAO! I found excellent lighting in my bathroom, since I usually do my nails at night.

SH♥

Rite Aid has their sale again for most of the cosmetics for Buy 1 Get 1 1/2 off! Totally awesome and I decided that I should pick up more Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicures! :) Unfortunately, I'm still on a tight wallet right now so I only got 2. But no worries, I LOVE THEM and I hope you love them too!

Calypso Blue
an blue shimmer but it has an green iridescent shimmer. The swatch is 2 coats and no top coat. AMAZING! SERIOUSLY WHY DID I NOT GET YOU EARLIER?! I liked the bottle at the store but once I swatched it, I fell deeper in love, I swear!! Totally beautiful♥

Purple Pulse
a dark purple shimmer. The swatch is 3 coats and no top coat. On the second coat, I noticed that it didn't spread evenly to the tips, or maybe it's my eyesight! x: but I just wanted to be sure that it looks even. Beautiful! I don't have that many real purple, only lighter shades so this is a keeper! :) You could probably get off with 2 coats rather than me, 3 coats.

hope you enjoyed!

Rockin' Blue

I'm really starting to like Brucci! $2.79 a bottle, isn't that bad. The color range is alright, although it's mostly pinks and reds. But there are new bottles that come in!

Brucci Gianna's "Rockin" Blue
it's similar to a teal/turquoise but since I'm not good with variations of the basic colors I looked it up! :) Gianna's "Rockin" Blue is close to a misty turquoise. My camera is stupid and can't pick up a lot of the colors. But once I put it on, I loved it! And the application? EXCELLENT! Seriously I think I'm going to get more Brucci's! The swatch is 2 coats and no top coat!


Any interested or curious bloggers that would like to try out Brucci? Send me an email and maybe we can arrange a swap or something! I'll try to get a picture of the colors on their shelves for you so it might be easier to see what I can get. :)

Inspired

After doing my nails with Orly Country Club Khaki, the new addition to my collection, I was thinking about a design to go with it. I tried leopard but I've already done that and I couldn't replicate it with a regular brush; the last time I tried it that came out nice, I used a thin nail art brush. My friend happened to update her nail album on Facebook and I was inspired to create my own version of it. Here's her version:


And here's my version:

I didn't add stars though because my nails are kind of rounded so the ends of the stars would poke out and scratch me :(

Country Club Khaki

The SOTD is Orly Country Club Khaki, that I got in a swap! I've been looking for this for a while ever since I've seen nail bloggers comparing taupe polishes.

Orly Country Club Khaki
light brown/taupe. The swatch is 2 coats and no top coat. It's lighter than Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Commander in Chic. Love it!!
