nails inc. Sapphire

Hello everyone! Hope all has been well with you.  Today I have a super pretty glitter bomb named Sapphire and is put out by nails inc.  Sapphire is from their Nail Jewelry series.  My husband picked this one out for me, you can't go wrong with blue and glitter!  Added bonus, my birthstone is Sapphire!

Etsy Shop of the Week: Different Dimension

Good evening everyone!  Tonight I have another great shop for you guys.  I have seen Different Dimension floating around for sometime now, but when the pics started showing up on Spectral Tiger I was sold.  Being a huge fan of World of Warcraft, I fell in love with her limited edition set.  I wanted them all but budget restraints would not allow me to buy them all at this time.  Spectral Tiger was hands down my favorite so it was my lucky pick.  Sad part, you only have a few days left to buy them!  As I said, this is a limited set and will only be sold until the new World of Warcraft expansion pack comes out Tuesday, 9/25/12.  After you see these pics I would recommend rushing over there and buy some up before they are gone.

I paired this with Zoya Jo for an ice cold look.

This was only one coat of Spectral Tiger.

The blend went on super smooth and glitter was distributed evenly.  Only thing I noticed was the "good stuff" settled on the bottom so I would recommend shaking the bottle a few minutes before use.  Don't want those nasty bubbles popping up on your nails.  So this "good stuff" I speak of was the biggest reason why I bought this blend..... wanna see the "good stuff"?

Holy crap, this stuff is AWESOME!

It really looks like a clear night sky on your nails.  Jaw dropping!

I am a sucker for glow in the dark polish and this stuff doesn't compare to any others I have seen.  It is truly amazing.  The glitter again distributes perfectly!  I love this polish and will cherish it dearly.  It looks great day or night and will work with any polish I own.  Head on over to Different Dimension and check out her lovely polish.  She has many other beautiful blends.  While your there, if you want to pick me up Horde or Murloc.........

Now before I leave tonight I would like to give a big thanks to everyone who made my successful store stocking of my new blends.  I really appreciate your business and hope to mix many more special blends for you guys.  I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and I look forward to seeing you guys again real soon.

Zoya Tallulah and Model City Daydream Believer

Hello everyone! Today I have one of my favorite blues paired with some holographic stars.  About this time last year I discovered Zoya and took advantage of a two free promotion they were running.  Tallulah was immediately my first pick with it's medium blue color and lovely shimmer.  I would certainly recommend following Zoya on Facebook to stay up to date on their promos and be the first to take advantage these awesome deals.

Two solid coats followed with my quick dry top coat

This blue is perfect for a blue lover.  The shimmer is a nice added bonus.

Next up is my Model City Polish Daydream Believer.  I may be bias but I love this top coat.  You just can't go wrong with silver glitter and holographic stars!  Let me share some tips when working with Daydream Believer or any other polish with large glitter or shapes.  First up, use a toothpick to position the large glitter perfectly and slightly press the glitter down on to the nail.  Secondly, use top coat.  I generally go with two good coats of clear and my favorite combo is one good coat of clear followed with my quick dry top coat.

Ah, I love it!

The stars make me want to go outside and just stare off into space.

So there you go, you now know my weakness.  Blue and stars!  Thanks for stopping by today and hope you enjoyed everything.  I am always trying to make my page better so if there is something you would like to see more or less of, please let me know.  Hope everyone has a great day!

Zoya Mimi and Finger Paints Motley

Good afternoon and welcome to my first post.  I hope to overtime inspire other people, teach a few things, and learn somethings along the way.  Not only is this blog for me but it is for other fellow lacqueristas out there.  I always would love to hear your thoughts and opinions so please share.  Now time for the good stuff.

Today I am going to show you two that I have had for sometime and truly enjoy, Zoya Mimi and Finger Paints Motley.  First up is Mimi.  This is such a pretty color of purple packed full of sparkle.  It is a little dark but still a very fun color.

To achieve this look I have on three coats of Mimi followed with a quick dry top coat.

Next up I will top off Mimi with Finger Paints Motley.  This one is a blue/green flake.  I am a huge fan of flake nail polish.  To me the best part of a flake is the fact you can wear nice glitter polish with out the pain of later removal.  Flakes come off super easy with non-acetone remover.

Finger Paints Motley

This is just one coat of Motley followed up with a quick dry top coat.

For some reason this combo reminds me of a Trapper Keeper I had in grade school.  Ah, I thought I was the coolest.  If you are interested in Zoya Mimi you can purchase it directly through Zoya.  Finger Paints Flakes are discontinued but with enough looking I am sure you could find one online.  If you guys have any suggestion on what you would like to see more or less of please let me know.  Thanks and have a great evening!
