Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Buttercup

I had no idea what I was doing this time around... I dont really even like yellow. (I probably own 4 yellow polishes total.) I went into this thinking I would do some sort of antique flowery thing with my little bee nail charm. But then I was thinking as an accent nail I should do a leaf with the bee on it... then I ended up outlining all of my nails just to see if I could do it. I love outlined nails and this is my first attempt. I think it looks better on pointy nails, but this isnt bad... right?


 hmmm, close up they dont look as good as I thought... But they do look better matted!


Dont they?

Either way, I love outlined nails and dont really like this color. This is three coats, its kinda jelly like but a good polish, at least for consistency and application. I never bought another because this color once stained my nails super bad... yuck I forgot about that, I'm gonna get this stuff off quick.

Have you ever tried outlined nails? Do they look better in a certain color?

Serum No. 5 Day Glow

I have been wanting to get this stuff for forever! I love glowing polish and this is the best stuff I have ever come across, its like... radioactive


But first I want to show you my favorite white polish. I have probably talked about this before... now its time to see pictures.


I would never wear this as one coat on its own, and you can see why. But for layering under things this is the best! Why would you want to waste two layers of white polish under something you might need two or three coats of on top... with base coat and top coat, those are layers I just can not afford. This is pretty decent for one coat... am I right or what?


... not the best pictures, I know. My camera did not want to do its thing tonight. However, I think you can still see the one coat awesomeness that is American Apparel's Tee-Shirt.

Anywho... On to tripping the light glowtastic:


This is Day Glow...


 I didnt think it looked as yellow as it looks in the pictures...


More muted like this


and boy does it glow like a MO FO


This is where it gets its name... it glows in lowlight DURING THE DAY
I LOVE this polish. I am so happy I broke down and bought it even though I am not much for yellow. It looks great and I am having so much fun with it!
Sorry about the poor cuticle clean up, I am getting super lazy...

Do you have any fun glow polishes? Maybe a better color? Do you want this polish? Go get it HERE, do it now. You're welcome.

Untrieds photo heavy... (more like another Photo Dump)

Since I have only recently started my polish addiction... I have a lot of additions to my collection that I havent tried yet... mostly cause I like to buy polish more than I like to apply it... too much nail care to worry about. I have a couple days off and not much to do except probably go hang out with my little brother tomorrow. So today I exercised for the first time in a bit over a year... it was pretty tough even though it was only a half hour of running up and down the stairs (because last night when I ran up and down once I was so out of breath I disgusted myself), le sigh. I thought it would be a good idea to sit at my desk and paint my nails for hours, and I cant really move if I wanted to. Please excuse my nails in some of these pictures, the acetone really dries out my skin and cuticles. click "read more" to see the photos
