Stained Glass Window Nails - Some Layering Fun

I was a bit bored when I did this manicure and decided to have a little fun.

 The end result reminds me a bit of stained glass, what do you think?

The base is Revlon Royal and is layered with Icing's After Party and stamped with Sally Hansen Celeb City.

Thanks for looking.

Teal Tuesday - Ovarian Cancer

It's time for Teal Tuesday and this week's theme is Ovarian Cancer or rather Ovarian Cancer Awareness.  September is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month and Friday is National Wear Teal Day.

I used Maybelline Tenacious Teal, Milani Teal and a random white polish.

Check out Teal Toes(on Facebook) or at their Website, www.TealToes.org to learn more about Ovarian cancer and learn how you can help.

And remember to wear teal on Friday and check out everyone else's Teal Tuesday manicure.

Bonus Pic - Cirque Never Nude

This is not a full post, but a omfg this polish is so gorgeous I have to share this crappy cell phone picture of it.

Two coats of Cirque Never Nude is just perfect!

Enjoy!

Eenie Meenie Miney Mo

Eenie Meenie Miney Mo wasn't my selection process, but the name of today's polish by Icing. I used this polish once before in an unfortunate laying combo, but now I am using it by itself.

I used five coats and it is gorgeous!

I just love the teal glitter that pops out in the sun.

I firmly believe everyone needs to head out to an Icing and buy some of their glitter polishes, especially if this is how all of them behave.

Thanks for looking.

Teal Tuesday

So, I recently joined some lovely ladies in doing Teal Tuesday and I couldn't be more excited since teal is one of my favorite colors.

However, since I was away all weekend and was busy celebrating my lovely mothers birthday I didn't have much time to do a manicure.

Nonetheless, here is a quick funky french involving teal.

I promise next tuesday, I'll do better.

Dreamatorium Time? Weird Indeed's Troy & Abed

I'm excited to say it is time for Weird Indeed's Troy & Abed, however, it looks nothing like the dreamatorium. I guess my title might be a bit misleading, but I love the dreamatorium and I wish I had one and could completely immerse myself in fantasies like Troy and Abed do so I of course had to honor it. 

Troy & Abed is a pale blue polish with multi-colored and multi-sized glitter. It is an opaque polish so you don't get the suspended glitter look.

I used two coats for all my pictures and while it's a pretty polish with an interesting and pretty appearance, I was disappointed by the glitter payoff. Sadly, all the glitter was at the bottom of the bottle and I was not patient enough to wait, therefore very little glitter. All the weird bumps and imperfections on my nails are my nails and not weird formula issues with Troy & Abed.

If I was a more patient person, this polish would have been gorgeous. I still like it, it reminds of a robin's egg and who can't help but love this label, I'm still very much amused by it.

Thanks for looking.

Sadly, the creator has stopped making polish, but there are still a few polishes available for sale on her Facebook page.

Naild'it Froggy Pond

I have no other associations for today's polish besides it's name so here is Froggy Pond by Naild'it. This is the second polish I have tried by Naild'it and I am a fan. Froggy Pond is full of matte macro yellow, teal, and black with a sparse hint of larger purple hex glitter. 

I used two coats on top of Zoya Zuza (index), Myrta (middle), Carmen (ring) and Arizona (pinky). I didn't layer Froggy Pond over anything on my thumbs and used four coats to achieve the opacity I desired.

The formula was a little thick or gloopy (the way I think of it) and the dab method for glitter would have been perfect to use in this case, but I didn't and had a little trouble placing the glitter as you can most easily tell on  my index finger. The lily pads or the big purple glitter were easy to get and I believe I have at least one on each of my fingers. 

Froggy Pond is a lot darker than I was expecting, especially on it's own, but I like the way it looks on it's own the best.

oii look at all those runaway glitters
