Cheeky Chops

Hi there!

A couple of weeks ago I was just really needing a yellow polish on my nails! I didn't want any color except yellow. So I decided on Cheeky Chops by butter LONDON.

This yellow is a super gorgeous yellow! Not too bright, not too pastel. It was pretty perfect, really. It coated so evenly and nice, with no streaking. And I think that is something that just doesn't happen often with yellow polish. At least for me..

It reminds me of flowers and summer.. Which I am seriously hoping for both very soon!

Here it is with two coats and a top coat.

I really enjoyed this polish. If you are in a yellow mood and come across this, I definitely recommend it! I don't think it could look bad on anyone!

Thank you for reading. I hope you enjoy!

Caribbean Coral

Hi there!

 I love the color Coral. When I saw this color at the Walgreens. I didn't even think twice about it. I needed to have it. I was not disappointed when I wore it either! I also think secretly this might be my boy cats favorite color because as soon as soon as I put it on he rubbed right against my nails! Then I put the bottle down and not paying attention to what I was doing, I didn't tighten the cap all the way... I dropped it right on him when I went to go pick it up. OMG! I ran and got a towel with some soap and water and got it off, but it kind of stained.. Later I found some in his big fluffy fur so I ended up having to give him a mini hair cut!


The color is Caribbean Coral from the Wet n Wild Fergie Collection. This was part of the limited summer collection I think. It is such a gorgeous color. Very rich. For some reason when I wore this I thought the name was different and I was like 'I don't know why this isn't called Coral, it really looks Coral'. So here it is with three coats.


 I know I am showing you a lot of these colors lately but they are really so gorgeous and I can't get enough of them. My Walgreens is basically out of them so if you are loving any, you might wanna get them asap!

Thank you for reading! I hope you enjoy!

WAWA!!

Hi there :)

I love LOVE love love love wawa (Watermelon). Yum. I could eat it forever. Seriously, at work, I eat it out of the fruit salad all day. It is like the best wawa I have had in a LONG time! Wanna know something weird though?! Every time I eat wawa it gives me super WEIRD dreams!
 
Anyways lolol

I am so loving this texture nail polish craze! At first I didn't know how I felt about it, and I won’t wear it if I am going to work because it does weird things in my gloves and it creeps me out. But I seriously love it!!! It’s so fun to play with and It isn’t really even that hard to remove!!

 I was wanting to do something fun and summery and I was like OH! Wawa!! With pixies!!!! So I grabbed all my pixies and picked some colors and got to painting.

I used Julie G Gumdrops Hot Cinnamon for the wawa flesh, Zoya Vespa for the rind and Zoya Dahlia for the seeds.

Summer Fun!

Hi there! :)

As you know our page right now is having a Summer themed nail art contest! We are so excited to see everyone's ideas! You can check our facebook page here for all of the details!

Here is a picture of my mani I did for inspiration!


 On my thumb I did a little beach. I used Wet n Wild Fergie Cabo Cruise for the sky, Zoya Pixie Dust Solange for the sun, Julep Sea Salt Jill for the sand and Julie G gumdrops Blueberry Fizz for the water. On my pointer I tried to  do a beach ball. It turned out ok but I think it looks funny. I used L.A. Colors Energy Source for the base, Zoya Pixie dust Solange for the middle part, Julie G gumdrops Hot Cinnamon, Blueberry Fizz, and Tangerine Dream for the color parts around the beach ball. On my middle finger I used Wet n Wild Fergalicious and put some cute nail art stickers on. I got them at Wal Mart for like $1.98. They are like little girls stickers but they are so cute!! I really couldn't pass them up! I love them! On my ring and my pinkie nails I used Julep Sea Salt Jill for the sand. On my ring finger I used Wet n Wild Fergie Purple Polka-dot Bikini for the flip flops and Wet n Wild Fergie Miami Spirit for the flip flop straps.

I really had SO much fun doing this mani. It didn't even really take a lot of time either which is awesome. I hope you all will enter our contest! The more the merrier!

Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoy!

Summer!

I am so excited that summer is finally getting here! This last couple days in Michigan have been slightly chilly, but I am just so glad all the snow and low temperatures are gone! We have had some other weather that I am not so excited about. Last week there were 4 tornadoes that were about an hour away from me. Scary stuff!

This weekend my family and I are going camping and I am so excited!!!!! I haven't been camping since before I got married and I have been married for 7 years this september. Thats a long time without camping, especially when my family used to go every summer, multiple times during the year.

So since we are doing this summer themed mani contest, Panacea and I wanted to have some mani pics of our own for inspiration! I also was asked to do a favorite season mani for a polish group I am in. Spring and summer are my favorites, but since I love summer colors better and needed a summer mani, I went with summer for it, that way I could use the same mani for both!

I had lots of fun doing this mani, but right before I did it I was having a really long anxiety attack. So I was still kinda shaky and stuff when I was doing it so its sloppy.

I got to use a bunch of new stuff too!! All of these are new summer polishes I picked up that I haven't got to use yet. I also used some of the nail art design rods I got. I forgot to take a picture though of them, so you can just see them on my nails. lol

Salon Perfect Haute Pink, Claires Flames, Salon Perfect Yowza Yellow, 
Ruby Wings Meadow, and Funky Fingers Power Play. 

Then for the little details I used these!
Art Club Black, Art Club Purple Rain, Art Club White, and Art Club Neon Pink.

All the colors hung on pretty good except for the Claires polish. It was peeling off the next day. The Ruby Wings is holding up the best! Plus it changes to a purple color in the sun, so thats awesome!!!

Thumb - Summer, pointer - bikini,  middle - martini, ring - fruit, pinky - beach towel.

So since I had an anxiety attack and it was like 1am when I did these, I totally forgot to take progression pics. So at least I remembered to take a final pic! haha I messed up the S and then tried to fix it and made it worse. I didnt want to start over, so yea.... haha 

Hope you guys enjoyed my mani! Have a great week everyone! xoLeah
