Blue-Eyed Girl Lacquer 2014

Shade

 Hello!  Today I have the most stunning polish from Blue-Eyed Girl Lacquer, 2014.  On the website it's described as an electric periwinkle with iridescent glitters and a blue to purple shift.  I'm gonna run with that since I stink at describing things.  This is three coats with topcoat.

I feel like my pictures didn't quite capture the true beauty of this polish.  I spent my whole run this morning staring at my nails trying to decide if they were blue or purple.  I'm lucky I didn't jog into the lake.  You can check out Blue-Eyed Girl Lacquer's shop here and on facebook here.  Have a great day guys!

Until next time...

Sally Hansen Crystalline

Hello!  Today I have two pretty matte finish polishes for your viewing pleasure.  The white is Sally Hansen Satin Glam Crystalline, two coats layered over a plain white polish.  The teal is Sally Hansen Satin Glam Teal Tulle, two coats on its own.  Crystalline is pretty sheer so I definitely recommend layering it.

I really like wearing mattes but since I clean houses they tend not to wear very well for me.  This is gorgeous so I will totally have to wear it again.

Until next time...

Cult Nails NOTD

 Hey guys!  Just a quickie Nail of the Day post.  This is Cult Nails Ms. Conduct with Masquerade layered over top.  Masquerade on it's own is a gorgeous polish but I was curious what would happen if I layered it over Ms. Conduct.  The result was a super pretty mani.

Enjoy your day and I'll talk with you again soon.

Race Day Nails

Good morning!  Yesterday I (mostly) ran my very first 5K.  This is a super big deal to me because I've never been a runner.  In my efforts to drop some weight I've taken to running and am really beginning to love it.  I participated in The Color Run with my very best friend and one of my little sisters.  Honestly my sister ran more than a 5K because she kept running ahead and then would come back to us.

I knew I wanted really fun nails for this event.  The Blerch is a comic on The Oatmeal about why the artist runs long distances.  It's hilarious and so true for me.  I run because I like feeling strong and empowered yes, but mostly because I like to eat.  If you've never read it you should go check it out.  The Blerch was made for me by a lovely lady in one of my nail facebook groups.  She makes amazing quality glitter toppers for fun.  It's too bad she doesn't have an indie brand.  They are really nice.  So anyway, The Blerch has black stars, green circles and a bunch of holo glitters.  So sparkly!  I layered one coat over Layla Softouch 06 (no idea if this polish has an actual name or not).

I'm still wearing and loving this mani today.  I took a cell phone picture after we were done running but my hands didn't look all colorful and fun like my friends.  I looked like I had been digging in dirt and you don't need to see that.  Here's a shot after we ran.  I'm in the middle.  Sorry for the word heavy post but I'm super proud and excited to have met this goal for myself.

Don't worry about that lost looking child in the background.  He belongs to me :)

Until next time my friends...
