My Vegas Nails!
Hey lovlies! Today's post features the nails that I wore on my recent trip to Vegas. This is China Glaze Running in Circles with Water You Waiting For sponged on using an eye shadow applicator. Running in Circles is the most amazing green polish I own. China Glaze does these glass flecks so well. I used two coats for this manicure but in retrospect I should have used three. I don't have any pictures of this in the sun because you could see major vnl and they looked terrible. Then I sponged on Water You Waiting For. I can't wait to wear this polish on its own.
Mr. MLiP loved these nails and I got several compliments on my trip. Plus it wore like iron. No chipping or anything while we were gone. Do you have a favorite China Glaze glass fleck? I feel like I should own them all. It's my favorite polish finish.
Until next time,
Sara
*These are my very own polishes. No one gave them to me. Well, the girl at Sally's did but I have her money, so it doesn't count.*

Zoya Areetha & China Glaze Liquid Crystal
| Sun |
Good morning! Is everyone enjoying their Monday so far? I am but I'm still in my pjs so that might be why. Today's mani is a bit of a fail. I had to leave for work in an hour so I did this pretty quick. This is two coats of Zoya Areetha, a pretty purple metallic. The problem is Areetha is frosty, brush strokes galore. The formula was a tad weird as well but I think that's because I recieved Areetha in a swap and the mailman put it in the wrong box. It spent the month of April in the neighbors box. It was really hot here in Phoenix in April. I think she cooked some. So to cover up the streaks I sponged on some China Glaze Liquid Crystal using an eyeshadow applicator. I've done this before and it looked good. Not so much this time. So off to work I went with my less than stellar nails that would not dry. I always use a quick dry topcoat but hours later this mani was still denting. What a mess!
