A Jem of a Polish


Hey all! I'm baaacccckkkk! Since I'm back in school now, I haven't had much time to paint my nails or blog or much of anything. My nails have been in horrible shape, they've been breaking and everything. Well, today I have Zoya Jem for you. I absolutely love this color....it's a purpley color and it's perfect for fall. I started with a base of Zoya Anchor, 2 coats of Zoya Jem and a coat of NYC In a NYC Minute Quick Dry Top Coat. Until next time.....happy polishing!

Plain Jane


Today, I have a plain Jane mani. I felt like I needed something a little subdued. I reached for one of my untrieds.....Essie Turquoise and Caicos. It's a beautiful turquoise leaning more towards green. I honesty don't know why I waited so long to wear this polish. The formula was kind of thin and to get the look I was going for I had to use four coats. For my accent nail I used my dotting tool and just made an off center row of dots using WnW French White and A England's St. George and toped it all off with a coat of Seche Vite. Until next time happy polishing!

Excuse Moi!

Today I have OPI Excuse Moi from the muppets collection. I like this best from the collection. There was no problem with application and the glitter is kind of fine but still chunky. For top coat I used one coat of Gelous and one coat of Seche Vite

I'm back!


Hello all! I have been M.I.A for God know how long, but I haven't stopped polishing or buying polish. I'm planning to catch up with posts and post some haul pics.....maybe one day I'll graduate to videos but until then...pics it is. What I have for you today is a water marble that I saw on Colette's blog My Simple Little Pleasures
, Her water marble tutorials are pretty easy to follow and I normally have pretty good results. This was using the same Colorado that she used in her video, China Glaze Liquid Leather and Ahoy....the only difference is that I did not do the figure eight swirl. Voila
Until next time....happy polishing!

Today's NOTD is 3 coats of Zoya Dove with one coat of Sally Hansen Glass Slipper, I saw this on My Lucid Bubble and loved it


Hope you like this combo as much as I do!

NOTD: Orly Rock Solid

Today I have for you Orly Rock Solid....love this color in the bottle but not so much on me :-(! This is from the Mineral FX collection and it is a gun metalish gray foil polish with small holographic glitter. Several other bloggers have swatched this color and it looks great on them. I have tried to wear this polish once before and hated it so much on me that I took it off after a few hours. Here I have three coats along with a coat of Gelous and two coats of Seche Vite.

The second photo really shows off the holo glitter!

Until next time...happy polishing!

NOTD: Revlon Royal Cloak

Hey all, I know I've been M.I.A....well I've been having computer problems...like blue screen of death problems. Whoa is me....working on trying to fix it. Anyway, here is my NOTD, Revlon Royal Cloak. It's a purple(not too light, not dark)polish with what looks like flakies. They are more prevalent in the bottle than on the nail, but man oh man is this one pretty! This is 2 coats w/a top coat.



Until next time....happy polishing!!!
