Color Club Winter Affair Giveaway ends on August 29th, 2013 comes with 4 nail polishes

So I am trying to get back in the habit of a weekly giveaway since I used to hold a weekly giveaway and then I stopped since I had low entries. So I am going to start working harder on promoting myself again and getting myself out there. Since I want to be able to show you guys great things and share with you all great things.

This giveaway prize was purchased with my own money. All the opinions on the polish are my own.

So I picked up this polish the other day and decided to grab a second package for you guys since I loved the colors. Sadly my nails have been breaking like crazy so sorry for the short nail pictures. I will work on that.

This package is called Winter Affair and comes with 4 Color Club nail polishes. It comes with a purple with blue undertones and glitter, a green with blue undertones and glitter and a red with glitter and a clear with sparkly white glitter chunks.

I love how easy this polish goes on and how nice it looks. I only used one coat for each of the applications you see.

a Rafflecopter giveaway So enter for your chance to win. And thank you so much for following the blog. :D

New Series Konad Discs.. Starting with M1

So for 5 months out of the year I work selling Konad products. It's a lot of fun. I have people daily ask me the same thing.. What does this design look like on a nail.. so I figured I should do a series.. which will be forever long .. showing off each Konad disc. So I thought I would start with the beginning disc. I stamped on my plain nail, no polish in Black Konad Stamping polish. I plan to do a series called stamping with non konad polishes very soon.. So be on the look out for that.

These pictures are taken with my camera phone, because I do it at work during slow times. On most days I don't really get slow days.. so it's a struggle. I am going to try to do as many discs as possible at work, since I only own about a 1/3 of the discs.

So this disc is really cute it has a spider, a duck, a ram, 2 butterflies, a little girl and a baby chick.

I love this disc. It's a cute disc for simple animal designs when you need a quick baby duck or spider fix..

Tune in next time for Discs 2 and 3.. :)

Nicole by OPI GumDrops

So this weekend I got to play with the new Nicole By OPI GumDrops. I am totally digging on the textured polishes and was super excited to try it out. I really love OPI's LiquidSand so I figured, from the same brand I would adore these. They aren't as textured as I thought they would be. I used My Cherry Amour (Red) and A-nise Treat (Black) as accent nails. They are textured matte glitter.

They didn't dry super fast so I messed them up three times before I got them to dry without me screwing them up. I love the colors, but felt there wasn't enough texture to them.

I know kinda funny when I felt the Sally Hansen had too much texture, and OPI Liquidsand is my favorite at the moment. I haven't had the chance to try them all but I promise to keep you updated.

I did not purchase these or receive them, I was just given the chance to play with them.

There are 6 colors in the set, I only had the chance to play with 2 of them. So if you get the chance, they are beautifil polishes and worth the money if you like the micro glitter look.

Lynnderella Very Pretty Vampire review and swatches

I had heard a ton of things about Lynnderella and I hadn't had the chance to grab one. Then the other day I got a Very Pretty Vampire. It was a beautiful glitter polish with small purple circles and medium sized red squares. I liked the color so I had to get it.

I love the color but I couldn't get it to go on smoothly. It was super glitter heavy. Maybe it was just my bottle, since it was depotted for me into a smaller bottle. I might try thinning it out a bit, but I couldn't get it to work for me.

I like the colors, so hopefully I will find a use for it.

Nerd Lacquer Quasar review and swatches

I have heard about these polishes from every indie nail lover. I have wanted to get myself one. I got the chance to pick up Quasar. It is a beautiful polish and it goes on so clean. I really like the brand. I really am falling in love with the indie polish companies.

The color is a green jelly with glitter in it. It's the first glitter polish that I really like so far, so that was a first for me. I really dig the color too, in and out of the bottle. It is so gorgeous. I am so glad I grabbed a bottle of this for my collection, now to catch them all.

Nail Mail and purchases while out and about this week 5/27-5/29

So I wanted to start this where once a week I show off what I got in the mail or what I purchased, before you see my swatches and reviews of things. This will be anything cool I found while out. So not always completely nail or beauty stuff. I love sharing with you all. I love also hearing from you guys and finding out about your incredible finds throughout your week.

So first off I'm gonna start out with my nail mail. I got 3 botles of polish from ILNP (I Love Nail Polish) during her $3 sale for her old bases. I have really wanted to try out her polishes so I am super excited and the box is just too darned cute.

Next I got my Hooray for May Mystery Julep box with 6 polishes in it. I really love julep the polishes are really nice. I have seemed to misplace this box and I am going crazy trying to find it.

I got a bottle of Lime Crime's Creme De Lemon. I really love Lime Crime and I have yet to try the nail polish, so I was super excited.

Then I stopped at Target this week and got 2 really great superhero sippy cups. I got a Batman and a Wonderwoman one. I use them when I am working on my computer and all my swatching is happening so I don't spill on my computer or other stuff. But I am a little sad that the Wonderwoman one isn't that cute because it is the wrong colors, but that's ok. I still love them both.

Then I picked up the Sally Hansen Sugar Coat and Fuzzy Coat. I am in love with the new textured stuff so I really wanted to check out the new ones from this brand. I will be posting about them very soon. I got a bright vibrant blue and a peach one.

I went over to H&M because like 2 weeks ago they did a thing if you bought anything you got a giftcard for $5 towards your next purchase. So I picked up $15 worth of stuff for the $3 I spent 2 weeks ago. I got 4 lip balms, 1 set of wet wipes and a hair clip. I got $24 worth of stuff. I am quite happy with the stuff. I love the lip balms. I can't wait to review them for you guys.

I ran over to Urban Outfitters for the clearance sale they were having I grabbed 5 bronzers. I am in love with the bronzers. I haven't really used any bronzer so this is my new starter set.

I went to DSW and got two of the Anise polishes one neon green and a bronze. I really dig this polish. I fell in love with the other 2 that I got last time I had a $10 giftcard. That's how I grab the polishes whenever I get giftcards, since I own far too many pairs of shoes.

Lastly I picked up an adorable neon dress and a very cute black and neon green skirt. I got them on clearance over at Jcpenney. I loved them a month ago and when I saw them on clearance I was overly excited. I used the Giftcard I won to grab them.

Northern Lights Gold Holographic Top Coat Review

I love the whole new holographic phase that the nail world is going through. I Had never used a holo top coat before and I had this one gifted to me. So I thought I would give it a whirl on some darker colors. I really like it. I can't wait to use it more often. It gives a nice uniform coat. I love the way it sparkles. The colors really sparkle in the sun. It is a great top coat for any day that you want your nails to really shine.

So here is the top coat over Jungle Trail. See how it just really pops.

Now here it is over Black On Black. I really like the way it shows up on the black.

Now the polish does have a strong smell to it, but if that doesn't bother you then this is the perfect holo top coat for you.

Sinful Colors Black on Black and Jungle Trail review and swatches

I really dig Sinful Colors. I think I have said this before I have talked about them a few times before. I bought these ones because I needed a good black and gray. Thankfully I swatched these right before I broke my pinky nail. My poor nails break so easy.

I really thought the polishes went on crazy smooth. I really liked how easy they go on. Barely any streaking and that is so important in a polish. The next thing that I really love about the polish is the way that it dries on the nail.

Here is Black on Black.. so beautiful and shiny. It dries almost gel like. I am so glad I picked up this polish.

Here is Jungle Trail a gorgeous gray. I love it and can't wait to use it in some nail art. Both polishes just dried so pretty. I really adore Sinful colors.
