RBL No More War

Quick and dirty swatch of Rescue Beauty Lounge No More War. It's a bit less green than it appears here. To me it looks exactly like a steamed artichoke (a favorite of mine)!

OPI Kabuki Queen & I Lily Love You

I wanted to post a quick manicure I did with OPI I Lily Love You. I wanted to make it similar to the bottle color so I started with two layers of You're Such a Kabuki Queen, a bright (but not neon) juicy pink.

Sorry about the blurriness. I think clicking to enlarge helps some. :/


What I really love about ILLY is all the square glitter!



And those iridescent, irregular flakes...


Isn't it pretty?



Here's a closeup of the glitter:



Until next time!

Nfu.Oh Jelly Syrup 42

A gorgeous, deep blood red jelly. This is four coats. The brush I received with this bottle is extremely wide, so application was difficult even if the formula was good and self-leveling.


Sorry about the pic quality. If you click to enlarge, I think it clears up a bit. Not sure why it's doing that.


Until next time!

Happy Fourth of July!

Here's what I did for the 4th of July (independence day for us in the states). I'm not hugely patriotic but I love opportunities for outlandish nail art! I tried to make each nail different but still fit with the general theme. Sorry my hands look so weird in this picture...they were impromptu pictures and my index fingers started chipping before I could take more. :( these were taken pre-cleanup.

Thanks for looking,

Until next time!
