ABC Challenge: Letter M


                  Hello, everyone! Happy Monday! Today I have for you Minx manicure stickers. I was Ulta browsing one day and I found these puppies for $5! I couldn't believe my good fortune. I was planning on wearing these to my sorority's formal; it would have been perfect because my shoes and earrings were gold. Sadly there's a reason these things were on clearance. 


              First off, application was absolutely horrendous. The stickers were very hard to deal with and were too stiff to mold to my nail. They showed ever little crease and imperfection in the nail, ruining the "mirror-like metallicness" of the sticker.  


Not only were the stickers hard to place on my nail they also shrunk leaving the edge of my nail exposed. Too bad, they had so much potential. I ended up taking them off and just painting my nails gold for the dance. 

This is my Big, Alyssa! Here's a close up of my earrings :)


This is my Little, Jess! And here's my dress! 



They may not be on my feet, but here are my shoes! Four inch heels! The highest I've ever worn! 


Thanks for stopping by and hope you enjoyed!

ABC Challenge: Letter L


Happy Thursday loves! Hope it's treating ya well! Today I have Letter L for ya. I used OPI's "You're Such A Budapest" as my base and sponged on China Glaze's "Liquid Crystal". 


I love the mix of colors and different sized glitters in Liquid Crystal! It makes for a perfect gradient. 


I was intrigued by the thought of this manicure mattified, and I have to say I really like it! 


It's cool how the glitter is still so shiny even with the matte topcoat. 


Thanks so much for stopping by; hope you enjoyed!

ABC Challenge: Letter S

Happy Wednesday, everyone! I'm so excited to show you today's mani! It changes color in the sun!! (Luckily it is very sunny today!) Sadly my nails all broke off a few days ago, so I just have nubbins today. I did letters L-R when I had longer nails so that will explain the rapid growth when you see those pictures soon :)

Today's polish is "Sun Kissed" by Del Sol. I picked this and few others up when my family and I were in Myrtle Beach for a baseball tournament. This super cool polish changes from a yellowy peach to a deep peachy pink.  


It took five thin coats to cover up the majority of vnl, which is why there are so many bubbles on my middle and index fingers. I tried to layer this over white, but this polish doesn't like to be layered...at all; it was quite the disaster. Lol. 


Even though the formula is iffy I think this polish is beautiful, and it changes color so I'll be forgiving! 



The following pictures are in direct sunlight. 




Sorry for the mess around my cuticles, this polish is impossible to clean up. 



Isn't that just so cool!?!?



Thanks so much for stopping by, Lovelies! Hope you enjoyed!
