Barielle Lindsay's Dancin'

Sun
 Hi everyone.  How is your day going?  I'm busy getting my house cleaned up for my in-laws visit.  Today I have the third polish from the Barielle's Carnival Fiesta collection.  This is Lindsay's Dancin'.  It's a very pretty red with a great formula.  It was easy to control and didn't require much clean up.  It was opaque in two coats.  This may not be the most unique color but I don't own many reds so it's a great addition to my collection.

I hope you enjoyed today's quickie post.  Have a great day!

Rainbow Favorites: Red



Good morning everyone!  Bec from Lacquer Dreams came up with a fun little challenge, Rainbow Favorites.  Each day this week you will see my favorite polish from a color or the rainbow.  I've never done a challenge before so I thought this would be fun.  Plus we can look at it as a weeks worth of Shop My Stash posts because I've worn all of these before.  I know a lot of the other bloggers participating are doing nail art along with their colors but I major suck at art so I'm probably just going to show you some of my favorite colors.

Today is Red.  Now I think I actually own only 4 red polishes and they are all sparkly.  I just don't care for red creams at all.  Maybe you guys can suggest some of your favorites so I can check them out.  Today's red is Zoya Kimmy.  Isn't she so pretty?  This is two coats of sparkly red goodness.  The formula was great as usual.


There are a lot of bloggers doing this but I don't have a list as of right now.  If you click on Lacquer Dreams I bet she has a list on her red post.  Have a great day and see you tomorrow with orange.

A Lazy Valentines Manicure



Happy Valentines Day my lovely readers!

Today I have a super lazy mani for you. When my sister said that China Glaze Love Marilyn looked like Valentines in a bottle, I knew I had to wear it today. I majorly suck at nail art so this was perfect. My little sister is wearing it too. We're like twins which is funny because she already has a twin. Now fair warning, these photos are less than stellar. It rains about 4 days a year here and today is one of them. This is three coats of Love Marilyn. The close ups show a few sparse areas but in real life you can't see them. I think next time I wear this I will do a silver base, like Zoya Trixie first, then two coats of LM.


So what are you wearing today?

Have a great day!

Love is a Racket

So pretty!


As soon as I saw the first pictures of OPI's Love is a Racket and Pros and Bronze, I knew I had to have them. I'm normally not a red person, but this one is pure win! For this mani I used 3 coats of LIAR (do you think they meant for it to spell liar...hehe). I could have stopped at 2 but I really wanted to see if another layer added to this awesome color. It does.

This is the first time I've done an accent nail. The accent color is Pros and Bronze. I can't wait to do a full mani with this. I used nail stripping tape that I ordered off ebay. It makes great lines but do you see that blue on my nail? That's from the tape. It's probably user error since this is
the first time I've used it. I shall try again and see.

I've had this on for a couple of days so there is some tip wear. Straightening up at work is hell on my nail polish.

I don't think this first picture is very color accurate. It looks too orange, but I really wanted to show you how sparkly Pros and Bronze is.
