Nicole by OPI Love Song

Hey loves!

Feels like all I've been wearing are shades from the Selena Gomez collection! And to think I used to be a NOPI snob (I just can't get with their bottles sorry).

I've been meaning to put together a striping tape manicure for a while now and I'm glad I finally got around to it because this one looks great! The base is Vincent Van Gold from the Revlon Expressionist art pen collection. I laid down some striping tape in a simple pattern on the index and pinky and added NOPI's Love Song on top.

Vincent Van Gold comes off as blue in my pictures (it just doesn't photograph well) but it's actually a purple duochrome that shifts to blue. Very pretty.

Random swatch

Hey loves,

Just a random swatch of this Revlon ColorStay polish in Bonzai. This is a lovely apple green with a very fine golden shimmer. It's very similar to Sinful Colors' Happy Ending but since I'm not a fan of Sinful Colors' formula I'd say that Bonzai has now become the perfect replacement!

Because drugstore polishes need love too!

Hey loves!

I find myself gravitating towards the same brands when it comes to nail polish so in an effort to shake things up I decided to break out some drugstore brand polishes I've been neglecting. The two shades I'll be showing you today are both from Revlon's Brilliant Strength collection. The first being Enthrall, a beautiful and shimmery olive color and the second Intrigue a shimmering cornflower blue.

These are the only shades I own from this collection but not for long! The formula on these was great and they dry pretty quickly too which is always a plus.

Love is in the air?



Hi guys!

Hope everyone is doing well. I’d feel better if it wasn’t for this darn Canadian weather. Something about winter just gets me in a funk. I just want to hibernate until spring! In order to get myself out of my grouchy mood I decided come up with a look for Valentine’s Day. I’m gonna let you guys in on a little secret… I think Valentine’s Day is lame. I need a holiday to love someone?!? lol Sounds pretty ridiculous to me. That’s why this manicure has a little twist to it. It’s the anti-Valentine’s day manicure!

I painted my ring fingers and thumbs in black with Nero from Gosh and all the others in Fire by Revlon (Top Speed collection).  I then went to town with the deco. I added one coat of Dorothy by NYX Girls on the ring fingers and thumbs, lip prints on the indexes,  black roses on the middle fingers and broken hearts on the pinkies.

Enjoy!

What’s love got to do with it?

A gift from my boy toy


Hello beauty freaks!

Okay so today I’ll be showing you a random swatch of a polish that my Honey picked out for me. This one actually ISN’T made by OPI which should make my little sister Mims pretty happy since she seem to be under the impression that I am an incurable  OPI whore. I have no clue what she’s talking about… *blank stare*

Revlon’s Ocean Breeze is a beautiful color (I’m not gonna bother trying to describe the shade, you have eyes, you see what it looks like!) and the cool thing about it is that it’s scented. The not so cool thing about it is that this particular polish kinda smells like house cleaner. Thankfully the smell does die down eventually. A fabulous shade nonetheless.

I think this would have been great with black shatter.



Enjoy,
Vee…xox…
