Look I Stamped!!

Hey all!  Recently I was perusing Instagram and saw Bundle Monster had a new huge stamper.  This sucker is gigantic!  I shared a photo on my facebook page the other day.  Now I'm not a huge stamper just because the inner perfectionist in me freaks out at the littlest imperfections.  But I just had to see this stamper in person, so I ordered it.  It came super fast from Hawaii.  Last night I decided to stamp a full mani and see how it worked.  I have to say I'm pretty impressed.  It picked up the images super easy and I was able to cover my whole nail pretty easy.  I started with a base color of Blue-Eyed Girl Lacquer Monster's Tea at Tiffany's, then used a black cream to stamp this image from Mash plate 48.

So it's not perfect but I'm loving it.  I feel like I have the stamping bug again.  Now to build up some courage to try out some of the really neat stamping techniques.

Have a great day!  Thanks for stopping by.

Sally Hansen Insta-Ombre Review

*Press Sample*

Hey guys!  I have two glitters from the Sally Hansen Insta-Ombre line.  Now I did these swatches before I read the directions.  Bad blogger, I know!  I used these like a glitter topper and they are awesome for that.  The directions say to apply a coat to the whole nail, then another coat on just part of the nail and so on.  Making it an ombre.  Makes so much more sense too me now.  I will have to try that and give you an update.  Meanwhile here they are as just one coat over a base coat.


Sally Hansen Insta-Ombre Grey-diant over Pacific Blue.  This was so much prettier in person.

Sally Hansen Insta-ombre Layer On Lilac over Babe Blue.  This is a super cool purple glitter.

I'll be sure to update you guys when I get a chance to redo these.  These are available now everywhere that you find Sally Hansen.

Until next time...

Hey all!  I have a really cool neutral holo to show you today.  I'm not even really sure what possessed me to buy it since neutrals aren't my thing but I'm so glad to have this staple in my collection.  This is Rica It's Me, Stan from the Golden Girls collection.  This went on with two smooth coats.  I added some accents of Lacquerhead Dots Impossible.  I love that it's neutral but has a subtle holo flash to spice things up a bit.

Rica makes such great quality polishes.  I know that when I order I'm getting a quality product with the fastest shipping I've ever come across in the indie world.  By the way sorry for the nubby nails but I lost a few camping last weekend so I had to chop them all.  It's okay though because I'm a shorty nail kinda girl.  

Have a great night!

Rica Go Big Or Go Home

Rica Go Big or Go Home

Hello!  I have a couple pretty Rica polishes to show you all today.  So lets start with the gorgeous blue holo shall we?  This is two coats of Go Big or Go Gnome.  Totally flawless application.  Pretty much what you expect from a Rica polish.  This is from the GNOME box that Rica and Stardust put out monthly.  I had missed this one but a lovely lady I know was kind enough to give it to me.  The accent nail is three coats of Big Daddy Always Said from the Golden Girls collection.

I'm a little gnome obsessed.  I have them around my house.  So these GNOME polishes are something I look forward to every month.

Until next time...
