Pink Wednesday.

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

Guess who is already thinking about Valentines Day? This girl right here :) I have never been one for Valentines Day but for some reason I am just in that type of mood lately. Hey what can I say people change.

Today I am just wearing a gradient nail consisting of China Glaze's Go Go Pink, Color Club's Yum Gum, Orly's Basket Case, and OPI's Teenage Dream. Then I stamped with plate SE21  with the two heart designs.I really need to invest on getting Teenage Dream in a bigger bottle because it is such a pretty color.

Anyway that is about it. I'm kind of nervous today because I only have 5 more days until school starts.

Enjoy yourself

XOXO

Pastel Rainbow. Tutorial

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

Sorry I have been a little busy around here lately. 

Today I decided to actually do something different. I am wearing a mani that my friend did on her youtube. 

Step one cut a sponge it has to be really hole-y, kind of like a painters sponge. You can find them at WalMart in the craft section or in Michael's in the painting section.

Then paint lines of color on the sponge. You can choose what colors you do.

Next you want to lightly press the sponge on to a paper, just to get the excess off.

Then place the sponge on your nail and press lightly. You can probably get away doing this to two nails and then you'll have to go back to step 2. 

Repeat step 2 through 4 on each nail, just too make sure that it is on there well. 

I kind of blended the lines a little bit by painting a layer of China Glaze's Fairy Dust.

I find that if you start out with a white base for lighter colors and a similar color if you are going to do darker colors. I used Yum Gum by Color Club, Mint Sorbet by Sally Hansen, You Belong To Me by Essence, and Lav-ish by Ulta.

You can visit PlasmaSpeedo's Page on Facebook or her youtube! She is a really amazing person and has a really quirky personality.

Pink Wednesday

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

Sorry this is a tad bit late at night. I have been semi busy planning for college. I will do a big announcement here soon and I am going to talk to you all the day before to tell you what I am going to wear on my nails and maybe I will do a face of the day before I go in.

Happy Pink Wednesday! I am glad to be doing these again, I kind of missed them. Today I went really simple, I haven't had the time to do my nails too much and my creativity isn't flowing very fast lately. I used two coats of Color Clubs Space Case which is just a bright pink with holographic glitter. I actually don't like this polish as much because the beautiful glitter gets covered by the pink. Then I decided that I would add Correction Tape by Wet N' Wild on my ring finger.

Anyway that is it for today. Happy New Year everyone and I am very sorry that I didn't get to tell you that on New Years but I was kind of busy. I cut my hair today so I might post about that later on, I actually don't like it, I may or may not grow into it but we will see. I might have to go get it cut again.

Enjoy yourself

XOXO

31 Day Challenge Day 24

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

The movie that I based my mani off of today is Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas, which I could have copped out and did it for yesterday and today because it is both a book and a movie. 

Very different if I may say. There are a lot of vibrant colors in this movie because of the content of the movie. I used a neon orange and yellow along with a bright red.

Color Club Get Your Lem-On, OPI Atomic Orange, and Essie Forever Young.

That's really it for today. I don't really like how it turned out. A little messy if you ask me but I guess it just adds to the character of the movie.

Enjoy yourself

XOXO

31 Day Challenge Day 20

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

Phew today in particular I had problems with nail art... Anyone ever have fail days? I seriously redid like 12 nails, haha no seriously. I hated how some of them came out. Water Marbling is such a pain to do sometimes, even when you know how to do it right and everything. The colors can get muddled together, you can totally miss the design, and sometimes you just get something that turns out looking like crap. I think everyone has those types of days, well today was mine.

I used Finger Paints Lavender Highlight, China Glaze Secret Peri-Wink-Le, and Color Club Who Are You Wearing? I topped it with China Glazes Fairy Dust, does anyone else have a problem with CHG FD getting too thick? I know I have to use like 10 drops of thinner to get the polish back to its original smoothness. 

I hope you enjoyed, I know I liked the final look of it. Very fall-esk.

Enjoy yourself

XOXO

31 Day Challenge Day 3

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

Whooohoo day 3 which is Yellow day! I love yellow to death. It is my favorite color but someone has told me that yellow is one of the most angering colors in the world. I am not sure on that. HAHA!!!

On my nails I have two colors yet again. I have Sinful Colors Unicorn on my ring and index fingers. Then on my pinkie, middle finger, and thumb I have Color Club Get Your Lem-On. Over that I put INM Northern Lights shaken up which just gives it a cutesy and pulled together look. 

That's all today folks LOL. 

Enjoy yourself

XOXO

Halloween Challenge Wednesday

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

Happy Witches Poison Wednesday, I didn't actually know what to do today... I remembered that I had previously did a witch earlier in October. Why not do her poison?  On my pinkie, middle, and index fingers is her poison. On my thumb and ring finger is cross bones and a skull. 

I used Color Club Yum Gum, Raspberry Rush, and Gimme A Grape Big Kiss for the gradient and art work. Then the little black dots are Tangled In My Web by Wet N' Wild, I picked the glitter out and placed it where I wanted.

That is all for today :) Sorry it looks so nasty around my cuticles this cold air got to me today and I was in a rush.

Enjoy yourself

XOXO

Nail Mail Round 3 and Haul

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

I wanted to do two separate posts to show case the different polishes I picked up. I worked today and got $20 so I figured why not? I also was sent something from SamBeauty for winning OlivaMakeupChannels giveaway, she has a blog and a youtube.

In the mail I received 10, 2012 Max Makeup by Cherimoya Cracked nail polishes, all random. I think whoever packed this really must have loved pinks and purples because that is the bulk of what I got. I may add some of these into my first giveaway which I might do around 150-200 followers ( I have a ways to go )

-Eternity (black)

-Innocence (white)

-Genesis (darker purple)

-Apostles (lighter purple more neon)

-Fault Line (dark red)

-Medusa (shimmery lighter red)

-Memories (a medium pink/red)

-Extinction (a brown pinky color)

-Pandemic (nude ish pink)

-Purgatory (baby pink)

Lastly I went back to my Fred Meyer to see if they still had any of the On The Prowl collection, they did. I also got more clearance items <3

-Buy Me A Drink by Wet N' Wild

-Jungle Fever by Wet N' Wild

-Yum Gum by Color Club

-Glitter Envy by Color Club

I think I am going to go to Ulta because tomorrow they start their buy two get one free on their Revlon (Maybelline, Almay, Rimmel, and La Splash)  and it seems as if the new glitters will be there. Also Ulta brand polishes are 2 for $6, Pixels are 2 for $4, OPI has buy two get a top coat or base coat free, and Butter London is buy 2 get one free! Good Sales!!!

Enjoy yourself

30 Untrieds Day 25

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

I woke up to a lovely surprise this morning which I will share with you very soon, next post I promise. 

Today I did a jelly sandwich with 3 nail polishes. I like it!!!

First was a base of Color Club's Gimme A Grape Big Kiss which is a neon purple. Cream finish, very sheer like the rest of the Wicked Sweet Collection ( I need three more and the collection is complete). Scented like Grapes... Yummy. It is opaque in three coats which is great considering the other Lemon and Lime are sheer and are opaque in four or five. It has a jelly look to it once dried.

Next I applied a coat of Wet N' Wild's Correction Tape from the On The Prowl Collection. This is similar to Party Of Five Glitters only it is pink, blue, silver, and black multi shaped glitter. The glitter is kind of sparse. I would like it if there was more glitter that stayed on your finger after each swipe.

Finally I finished it with a coat of Color Club's Raspberry Rush which is a reddened pink.  It is like Gimme A Grape Big Kiss in the sense of opaqueness and finishes. It is scented to be Raspberry. I love these scented nail polishes from Color Club... I had so much trouble finding inspiration for nail art, I took these on and off all day. I smelt it all day... I love them to death <3

I bought the two Color Clubs for $1.59 each and the Wet N' Wild for $1.50 at my Fred Meyer. Clearance bins are my best friend <3.

Enjoy yourself

Small Haul

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

Yesterday when shopping for food, I ran across the On The Prowl collection from Wet N' Wild. I begged my boyfriend for $10, which it didn't even come to :P LOL. I got 6 nail polishes, 4 from the On The Prowl collection and 2 from the Wicked Sweet collection. 

I got

-Correction Tape

-Tangled in My Web

-Behind Closed Doors

-Cougar Attack

-Raspberry Rush

-Gimme a Grape Big Kiss

I love the new glitters from Wet N' Wild, they are great. Too bad they are limited edition, GET THEM WHILE YOU CAN!!! I picked mine up from Fred Meyers at 2 for $3. 

Correction Tape is similar to Party Of Five Glitters, only CT has pink, blue, silver and black hex, square, and circular glitters, whereas POFG is red, pink, green, and silver glitters. 

Tangled In My Web is a clear based polish with black hex glitters.

Behind Closed Doors is a black based polish with bright red glitter. Small round glitter and larger hex.

Cougar Attack is a brown based polish jam packed with orange glitter. 

The Wicked Sweet collection was released in the summer and since then my Fred Meyer's had decided to mark the prices down to $1.59 which is an amazing $7.41 mark down. I will surely be going back for more. I have a stash at Fred Meyers hidden with nail polish just for me LOL, no one will ever know well not unless you live near me... Shh. 

Raspberry Rush is a pink-y magenta. Cream finish of course. Scented like raspberries. 

Gimme a Grape Big Kiss is a purple, more of a neon. Cream again. Scented like you guessed it... grape.

I would like to get more Halloween nail colors especially from Sally's... That would make my day. I need a job to be able to do that first.

BE sure to check Fred Meyers for the On The Prowl collection they also have the cute little pumpkins and other Wet N' Wild limited edition products. Like I have said in the past, they mark the products down tremendously. 

Enjoy yourself

XOXO

30 Untrieds Day 14 Pink Wednesday

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

What is better than glitter bomb? A pink glitter bomb. More of a barbie pink. 

Color Club's Space Case is from their Starry Temptress collection. It is a bright almost neon (it dries like a neon) pink with multi colored glitter. Holographic glitter I think. This is two coats and it is sort of a jelly type finish but not too much. I must say one thing about this polish, I don't really like that the glitter is not too visible and kind of looks like bumps in the the polish. Don't get me wrong you can tell it is glitter but it looks sort of dirty in my eyes. It also is really hard to clean away from my cuticles.

I need to get more from this collection. I must visit my local Fred Meyer when I have money because they were on sale there for $1.99 which is about the same as a Sinful Colors Nail Polish. I am not sure the regular price of these polishes because I haven't seen them in stores before seeing them on sale. I would like to say maybe $6? Or maybe $8 who knows.

Next month I may do the 30 Day Challenge... Who knows because Halloween is coming and I would love to have like 13 Days of Halloween or something around there. I am a Halloween fanatic. I may even do a tutorial on some Halloween makeup and nails. What is really going to be hard is Pink Wednesday in Halloween territory... I'll figure out something.

Well I am off to go apply for a butt load of jobs. Here is to hoping I get it.

Enjoy yourself

XOXO

30 Untrieds Day 5

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

Are any of you like me? I do my nails all cute and then I never go anywhere or do anything. I don't have a job and I can't drive... yet! Is this sad because I am 20? What is even worse is that I do my nails really cute just to take them off the next day.

I think for this 30 Untrieds I am thinking that it would be best if I just kept the design simple or no design at all. After all it is a lot of work.

Today I have another neon color, lets hope it is as warm here as it was yesterday. This neon is a vibrant cream lime. It reminds me of the Slime from Nickelodeon. It is a very thin polish that needs more than 2 coats. This could be prevented by a white base coat first, sadly I don't actually own a pure white mine is really thick and I forgot to buy another one.

Color Club's The Lime Starts Here is from the Wicked Sweet Collection, along with Get Your Lem-On which I did a post about on the first day of my Untrieds. All the polishes in the collection have their own "unique" scents, this one is lime. Since I do not have a white polish under this I had to do 3 or 4 coats.

I decided that I have done too many simple designs so I added a black splatter effect. Most people would do this with a regular polish but I did this with acrylic paint because I was having troubles with my polish not splattering, which is totally noticeable on my left hand. I may or may not show you the left hand. 

Just a note, Cuticle Removing Gel eats nail polish. I was cleaning my cuticles after I did this and I usually have a gap between my cuticle and the polish. While trying to clean my cuticle up I noticed that the polish was coming off too. It was weird. Now I have a bigger gap in between the two. I wish there was a way to get rid of cuticles all together and never have them come back. For those of you who barely have them or don't have them, YOU are lucky. 

Enjoy yourself

30 Untrieds Day 4

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

Happy Sunday all, I hope all is good. I woke up far too early this morning and will probably be taking a nap or sleeping all day ( this is normal for me). I am actually that I have been awake this early for the last week.

Today we have something really easy and kind of cute. Simple and cute, that is how I like em'. 

This polish that was picked for today is a very light dusty lilac color. It is a very light color. It is a cream which is my favorite type of polish followed by holographic, duochrome, multichrome, and then glitter. 

Sadly this color from Color Club doesn't have a name and my facebook is blocking me today for some reason it is telling me that the site is undergoing site problems but my friend is able to get on hers just fine. I will figure it out soon. 

Sorry for the messy application, I was in a hurry this morning and I had to add like 3 coats for it to be completely opaque.

Enjoy yourself

XOXO

30 Untrieds Day 1

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

Today is day one of my 30 Days of Untrieds. I am excited for this whole month because I am going to be wearing polishes that I have never even worn, some new, old, and gifts.

Today I have a brand new polish that I haven't even done a haul on. This is a vibrant yellow, more like a highlighter. I decided to wear this color now because I would feel a little awkward wearing a bright yellow polish further into September. 

Today's color is Get Your Lem-On by Color Club. I actually got this nail polish Tuesday at my local Fred Meyer for around $2 which is a steal for Color Club.

Get Your Lem-On is from the Wicked Sweet Collection, all of the colors from the collection are actually scented and are a vibrant neon color. The color is a vibrant yellow color with a green flash. The shimmer makes the color look lime green in the sunlight. When I first bought this color I said neon, shimmer, and scented?!?! I hit the jackpot. The scent to this is lemony but it is really different, I am not sure how to describe it. I love it though.Even with a top caot the smell still lingers. I don't really get the point of scented polish unless you have your fingers up your nose. 

This is 2 coats over a white-ish base (Pink Whisper by Orly) and even still it could have used one more coat. I should have used a white rather than an off white. I can tell you one thing right now, this polish really doesn't like my camera. I had the biggest troubles photographing this polish. Neons and cameras don't mesh well.

Well that about sums it up for the first day of my 30 Days of Untrieds. I may add some shatter to this. I think it would look pretty cool.

Enjoy yourself

XOXO

Haul and New Hair

Hello Lacquered Lovelies, 

I really should save all the new polishes I buy or get sent for one big haul like every two weeks out of the month or so. I really don't like posting a million hauls but I don't ever think that I will buy more and then 12 or so more polishes pop into my hands, I have a problem.

Today I made a trip to Ross to see what kind of Color Club sets they have because I have heard they carry the sets there for fairly cheap. I ended picking up 4 mini Color Club polishes sadly they don't have names and I can't find the packaging, I think my boyfriend accidently threw away the package SIGH. Anyway their is a dark purply grey color that has purple, blue, and silver sparkles, Then there is a plain silver color, a very nude pink color,  then a dusty light lilac color. I was searching for more when I ran across one single Essie called Forever Young which is a bright red, I have so many reds it isn't even funny but I can use the others for frankens now. 

Then I went to Walgreens because I knew they were having a sale on their Wet N' Wild nail polishes (or anything else that is originally $1.99). While I was there I picked up Party of Five Glitters, Blue Wants To Be A Millionaire, and FuchsiaRama. Then I was browsing their Sinful Colors display to see if they had any of the Adventure Island  Collection, sadly no they didn't but I may check the other Walgreens by my house. I would be really mad if I can't get these colors.  I did pick up Nirvana, Savage, and Soul Mate.
Sometime last week I picked up John Frieda's Foam Hair Dye in a deep red color and I took it to my sisters house and she dyed my hair for me. Let me say that foam hair dye is really weird and it claims not to be patchy but it is. I have to dye my hair again.

I think September is going to be a month of 30 Untried Nail Polishes, maybe even more. Look for that on Thursday ♥

Enjoy yourself

XOXO
