Sation Feliz Navi-Doll

Hi everyone!  Today I have a mani for you that I'm currently wearing.  Two things about this mani, first it looks better in person and two it needs some underpants.  This is Sation Feliz Navi-Doll, a super pale, almost white, sparkly gray.  It's gorgeous in the bottle and on the nail but it needs something under it.  This is three coats and as you can see I have serious VNL.  My accent nail is Pretty & Polished Sand Art.  I just used the polish brush to lightly put some one near the bottom of my nail and brushed it up towards the top.

These photos were taken in mostly sunny skies.  Not my best mani but oh well.  You take the good with the bad right?  Happy New Year kids!

Hey look I haven't fallen off the face of the earth.  Sorry for the break.  Mr. MLiP is on vacation and that always throws my schedule, less time to polish and post.  Today I have a polish that I picked up on a whim when I was at Ulta.  I didn't even realize it was a matte until I got it home.  I'm just really attracted to the grayish purply colors.  This is two coats of Stone.  This has a great formula for a matte.  Right on par with my ManGlaze polishes.

There is a little bit of pull on my middle finger.  I don't know if I didn't wrap my tips well enough or if it just pulled back overnight.  For a matte this did take a while to completely dry.  What I love is that no matter how much lotion or cuticle oil I put on it didn't lessen the matte effect.  So what do you guys think?  Do you own any of these Layla polishes?

Have a great night,

Sara

*I bought this polish all by myself while shopping with a friend.  I may have been swayed by her saying "That is pretty" when I held it up.*

We Have a Winner

Good morning lovelies!  I have picked a winner of my Sation giveaway.  Congrats to Brigitte of Color Me So Crazy.  I hope you all had a great holiday and are now relaxing.  I'll be back tonight or tomorrow with an actual nail post.

Thanks to all that entered,

China Glaze Little Drummer Boy & Glitter All the Way

Hello!  Quick post today about an awesome color that has been hanging out in my untrieds forever.  China Glaze Little Drummer Boy is a gorgeous dark blue with an amazing formula.  This one could easily be a one coater but since I didn't wrap my tips with the first coat, I did two.  I added a bit of China Glaze Glitter All the Way to my accent nail using an eyeshadow applicator to sponge it on.  It's a really dense glitter so it didn't work out quite the way I wanted but I like it anyhow.

Not the best pictures I've ever taken but it was weirdly overcast but still sunny outside.  I don't know what year Little Drummer Boy came out but I do know it's awesome.  I also think it would be good for stamping.  Do you have a favorite China Glaze holiday polish?

*I purchased this polish myself a long time ago.  Then it sat in my untrieds for atleast a year.  I have a problem, I know*
