Hearts and Polka Dots

Hey ladies!! Quick post again...

I am really just so into shiny, sparkly, glittery, metallicy nail polish! lol I have this bracelet that my mom bought me, and I wanted to do something fancy that went with the bracelet. Something to stand out with the sparkle of the diamonds in it. Used this pretty pearl white from Pure Ice called Platinum! Isn't it amazing?? I also wanted to add some more bling with the new gems I got to match the heart on the bracelet!

After doing that, I thought they looked too plain. I had also gotten some new dotting tools, so I used a color that I think it just so gorgeous, its a rosey, metallic pink by Sinful Colors called Dancing Nails. I decided polkda dots would be cute! It was real simple and fast to do. Well putting the gems on took some time, but I only had to do it on my thumbs, so it wasn't too bad! I love how long it all stayed on too!

Hope that you enjoyed this short post! Have a great week!! xoLeah

Metallic Aqua and Caught on Sapphire

Hi there :)

I was looking through my polish trying to decide which one I wanted to wear and I remembered that I said that I would show you the KleanColor Metallic's with the Wet n Wild Hot Rocks.

I really love both of these sets and together they pair together awesome. At first I didn't know which one I wanted to do, when I picked up the blue I decided I wanted to go with that. It's actually not blue, its aqua.

I chose Metallic Aqua. In some lights its blue and in some lights its aqua. I really like the way this looks on my nails. I think darker colors always make my fingers look slimmer and my nails look longer. Winning!

Pretty much as soon as the aqua touched any part of me that was not nail, there was no removing the stain. :(

I used Caught on Sapphire to pair with the aqua. They blended together very well. You almost can't even tell without looking close or if you look in the light.

Here is a picture in the sun, even after a day in gloves.

Thank you for reading. I hope you enjoy !

Julep Lauren and Jamberry nail stickers

Hi there :)

Back in like March- Heather from Revolution Jams messaged us and asked if we were interested in trying out Jamberry nail stickers. Leah at the time was working with another Jamberry Consultant so she asked me if I would be interested. I've never tried nail stickers before so I said sure!

 She sent them to me so fast. I feel like a big jerk because I honestly set them on my nail shelf and forgot about them  ( I'm sorry! Please don't hate me! ) .The other day I was looking at my nail polish trying to get them into some order because its become kind of spattered and really annoyingly messy, and I found them.

I feel like I'm always late to try the new nail trends! I'm really weird about trying new things. I always see them on everyone else and I like that's cool but I don't think it's for me. But seriously, these are so convenient and awesome for me!!!! They are perfect for people who love pretty nails and are terrible at time management.

 Like I said before, I've never used nail stickers before. Last night when I went to put them on I had no idea how to use them. I had to google and I was a little overwhelmed. I was talking to Leah on Facebook chat and I was like 'omg bb these look really hard! I really hope I don't mess them up!' She was telling me how easy they are are I was a little skeptical... No, for real. They were so easy! Wham Bam. You really could put these on in your car! They are supposed to last for 10 days on your nails. I was really curious how they would be in my gloves. That to me is like the real test. They lasted all day!!!  No peeling or anything! There are tons and tons of options to choose from, and to top that off they have a new option that you can create your own design!! Leah and I were both pretty excited about that. They also have stickers for your toes. I LOOOOOVE THAT! I hate hate hate hate hate HATE painting my toe nails!

I actually got some nail stickers from my April adopt a friend so I'm pretty excited!  I will definitely be using more of these stickers.

 As soon as I saw the stickers I knew what color I wanted to paint the nails that I didn't have stickers for. I chose Julep- Lauren which is a nice, bright, pink. It's not a hot pink but it's definitely nice and bright.  I got this color from my March adopt a friend. They go perfect together. I was very happy that my idea worked out. :D I did two thick coats. I wish I didn't do the coats so thick just because it took forever to dry and I did end up smudging it later in the evening. Boo.

 I really really love how these looked! I showed a girl at work and she thought they were so cool too. She has tried nail stickers before but never heard of Jamberry so I told her more about them... If you are interested in trying Jamberry nail stickers and are looking for a consultant, check out Revolution Jams! There is seriously a designs for everyone! She also has facebook parties, so if you want to have a party and receive the benefits of having a party but don't have the time to have a party or your friends live all over the place or even just don't feel like all the prep to have the party.... This is perfect!

World Ovarian Cancer Day

Hi there :)

A fan (an Ovarian cancer survivor for 10 years!) posted on our facebook page about World Ovarian Cancer Day. A day dedicated to creating and raising awareness about Ovarian Cancer.

 If you are a woman, I highly recommend you check out the Facts.. I made this little picture but you can check the site also. That is where I got all the information .

The color for Ovarian Cancer awareness is teal. I chose Wet n Wild Fergie - Miami Spirit. Its a very pretty dark teal with green and blue shimmers. Here it is with two thick coats. 

I decided to do some dots with Klean Color Neon Purple & Flower I lavendare you!. I also did an accent nail with Klean Color Chunky Holo Teal.

I totally smudged my thumb while I was trying to paint my left hand. I tried to fix it but I guess you can really notice it on the camera. You can barely see it in real life. 

Thank you for reading! I hope you enjoy. Please always take care of yourself and check yourself!

Duri rejuvacote & Nefertiti's Crown PT. 2

Hi there :)

 Sorry my posting has been sparse lately, missing my last Thursday post,  AND being late on my Monday post.  I've been ridiculously busy. I haven't even had time to paint my nails until last night!

Thanks for coming back to see how my nails are doing after 7 days with rejuvacote & how the nail polish held up!

You guys... For 9 days this polish was on my nails and never once did I want to stop looking at it! Even after all those day's I still didn't want to take it off!

I started the treatment on April 25th but didn't get to take it off until May 3rd so I continued it as a top coat until I could take it off. I showed off my nails like everyday. The ladies at my work all loved the color and were amazed how well it lasted. When I showed my one co worker, Gina, my nails on the 3rd she could not even believe it. She was like no way. I have told you before how long nailnation last's for me. Let me tell you. These two polishes together are unstoppable. If you haven't checked out NailNation, I highly recommend you do! You're missing out! Have you tried Duri Rejuvacote? If you have how did you like it ? I'd like to see your before and after photos!

Here are a couple picture's of how the nail polish held up for 9 days. 5 days of work in gloves, and 9 days cleaning the house and everyday wear and tear. You really won't believe it. You can even see where my nails grew out!! :DDDD

It was gloomy and rainy for 3 day's straight. I was really hoping to get some sun light photo's.

                                                  Pretty amazing right?

Here is a photo of my nails without polish, but with a coat of rejuvacote just because I didn't want them to be bare. I didn't file them or anything. My nails are still kind of peeley up on the top, but not as bad. I think they will continue to peel until I am done having my hands in gloves all day. I am really happy with my nails right now. They are so pretty. :D They seriously need to be filed and shaped in these photo's.

 Thank you for reading! I hope you enjoy!

Hot Lava

Just a quick post today ladies...

If you are looking for a bright color, but not really into neons. Something summery, sparkly, and just plain gorgeous, then you need to go and buy some of Sally Hansen's Hot Lava from the Limited Edition Designer Collection. OMG. Its awesome!

(Inside, pics don't do it any justice.)

I went to Meijer the other day and wasn't really looking, just walking past and it caught my eye. It was down on the lowest shelf of an end cap and I just had to have it!

It has a hint of pink in it, some shimmer, and its just so gorgeous. I like orange, but never really been a big fan of it on my nails and omg I don't want to take it off!! lol Its probably my favorite color that I have right now.

(My skin looks terrible)

I tried to put purple over top of it and do striping tape lines on it, but I messed up. I was going to try again, but then I realized it just looks so much better by itself. I forgot to put a top coat on when I took the pics too, but then I was reading about it online... Its supposed to have 7 benefits in 1 bottle!! Here are what they are:
1. Base coat
2. Strengthener
3. Growth Treatment
4. Top coat
+
5. Chip resistant
6.Gel shine
It also says that it should last up to 10 days! How cool!

Hope you guys enjoyed this quick post. Have a great week! xo Leah
