Zoya Penny

I love this color. Two coats is all it takes. It's a very pretty bronze/copper color.
What do you think about Penny?

Zoya Kylie

I've decided to give Zoya Kylie a try. It's a corally orange color. I'm trying to find colors that cover well enough for me not to be able to tell where the free edge and nail bed meet.
I didn't clean them up much, it's late and my sleeping pill is working. I promised the girls a trip to the park tomorrow. Maybe after that I'll polish their nails and have a mommy/daughters & sister/sister beauty show. That will probably be my next post.

What do you think about Kylie? Love her or leave her?

Yikes!

I've been MIA for so long. Winter is bad on me. I get so reclusive and blegh. I love Thanksgiving and I love Christmas, I hate snow and cold! I can't stand DST. It's dark before the news comes on! What kind of crap is that?

Anyway, this is my first attempt at a Patchwork Mani from Chloe's Nails. The pictures suck and I haven't cleaned anything up. The matte purple isn't as thick as the other two colors so it looks weird. No top coat (obviously it takes away the matte).





Haha so messy! Anyway. It's horrible, I know. I'll try again another time when the kiddo is in bed and my nails aren't a peely, gross mess.

How do you polish your dominant hand?

I attempted the half moon/ruffian look on my nails today. I've seen it called both names and I'm not sure which one it actually is. My right hand is more wonky than my left but I guess it's not so bad for my first try.


Sinful Colors - Big Daddy
Zoya - Dovima

A couple of the pics are blurry-ish. I had a lot of Pepsi today :)

Nails of the...uh week probably.

So ready for Halloween!
Sinful Colors - Black on Black
Sinful Colors - Big Daddy

Big daddy takes 2 or 3 coats to make it really opaque but I think if you started with a base coat of white it would really pop. My right hand alternates the other way. Thumb is orange and so on. I tried drawing spider webs, it didn't work. Boo hoo. I need some nail art pens instead of just the thin brush nail art lacquer I have. Ah well. I like it :)

A few goodies I've bought

A few things I've bought in the last couple of days. Walgreens has some Rimmel products for 50% off and their Sinful Colors polishes are always inexpensive so I bought some :) I also bought some TreSemme dry shampoo. I'm hoping I can make a shampoo last more than one day. My hair is oily and it hates me! At Target the other day I got a Sonia Kashuk highlighting brush hoping to be able to use it for foundation but I wasn't very happy with the results. May have to keep looking on that end. I also bought a neutral (for my skin tone) lip liner since all I seem to have is reds and burgundy. I need to invest in a few more of those. As soon as I find some lipsticks that don't make me look like a goth wannabe, a hooker, or a little girl playing in mommy's makeup. Wish me luck on that one!

Jump for pics :)

Zoya Nail Polish in Ali

Pics were taken from my cell phone so obviously they're not good quality. I can't get them to be true to color because it's night time here and the lighting in my house is yellow. Ali is a beautiful pink. It has a satin-like finish but a glossy top coat fixes that right up. This is the second polish from my Zoya Polish Exchange that I've tried and I love it just as much as I did Kylie.
