MANicure

So I have been wanting to have my husband do my nails for awhile, but kept putting it off. Then I was on Reddit one day in one of the polish groups I am in called Polish Gauntlet and they had a scavenger hunt style contest going on where one of the things you had to do for it was have your significant other put makeup on you. I don't really wear makeup much these days, so I asked if I could have him do my nails with nail art and they agreed.

When I was thinking about him doing my nails, I really had the expectation that it would be really good and some awesome nail art better than I could do. He has done art in college and high school and he can draw pretty good too, so I thought it would be awesome.

First he started doing my nails just trying to lay down a base coat of Almost Famous from Color Club and was having such a hard time that I knew it was going to go nowhere near as I had thought in my head. lol He ended up starting over.

So then he decided to go with Chelsea Girl from Color Club. Took him awhile to do a base coat. He kept getting so frustrated and saying how hard this actually is to do. He thought it would be easy too. So after much frustration and almost giving up he decided to just do something simple, which for him was actually still even difficult.

So he ended up doing a base coat of Chelsea Girl from Color Club and stripes of Almost Famous from Color Club. He only did one hand too because of the difficulty. It took him about an hour to do it. lol He was having a hard time getting his paint job opaque.

Thinking about what design he was going to do over the blue.

Creepin! This was his base coat of Chelsea Girl.

So spending almost a week with her is going to be so much fun! We have some fun things planned for the blog! xoLeah

Almost Famous

Hey guys!!

Today I am going to show you Almost Famous by Lilypad Lacquer. Its my very first one!!! It was a limited edition polish made originally for another blogger, Almost Famous, then shared with everyone! Its such a pretty purple and the holo is gorgeous, however I was a lil disappointed with the fact that you can only really see it in sunlight or bright light. The formula is great though too, nice brush and bottle. I really want to try some more though too. Its been holding up pretty well on my nails too. Had it on for a few days now and very very minimal chipping.

I am sorry that this post isn't longer, but I have been having a rough couple days and today I have a terrible headache. I promised on the facebook page that I would have my Tuesday post out today, so I am keeping my promise!

I do have some exciting news though to share. For my birthday, but a week earlier, I will be going to Chicago to visit Panacea!! We have a special post in store for you guys, should be coming out on my birthday which is April 11th, so be sure to check back for it then. Also don't forget to check out this months giveaway! Hope you guys have a great weekend! xoLeah

You can also purchase from Llarowe once she gets a restock.

I am not sure where else you can purchase from, but you can visit Nicole's facebook page for Lilypad Lacquer HERE.

And from here you can see the smudge on my pinky nail. I was having a bad day and didn't care to fix it. lol

I tried to get sunlight pics too, but its been so gloomy here.
