Nail Mail and Review.

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

I know I haven't posted a lot lately. I missed Tuesday and Wednesday posts but that is alright. I have been very busy with school in all but I promise you on my weekends (Sunday and Monday) that I will post. I may even schedule posts to post through out the week.

A week or so ago Amy from I'm Feeling Nail-Venturous posted a picture on Facebook asking what everyone thought would be a good name for her new nail polish should be. Of course everyone said their input. I just came in at the right time and put my idea of Rustic Remains. 

Well Amy contacted me a few days later and she told me that she chose my name for the nail polish.She then goes on to tell me that she is sending me a bottle of the polish. So here we are. Rustic Remains.

Rustic Remains is clear polish with coppery bronze flakies. There is also a red and green shimmer to the polish. It also has a white shimmer that is less noticeable. Now please note that I am just sitting here looking at the polish. Amy can tell you more about the polish than I can because she is the one who made it. 

I can tell you that this polish looks great over black and definitely over white. I tried it over a silver and orange and it didn't really look that great.on. I think it would look great over reds, bronzes, and golds. I want to try it over blues and greens, maybe even a purple. I used two coats on each nail.

I actually wore this polish to school today. I had all of my nails white except for my ring finger which was black.I used two coats one each nail. I can tell you that on white it looks more red and on black it has more a green tint to it. Very interesting color if you ask me!

Thank You Amy! I love it to death!!!

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 27

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

I truly cannot believe how long I have done this for. I am really sure that there will be a day where I will see that I need to do this again. I will continue to buy nail polish because that is just how I am. I am planning on buying a Melmer within the next few weeks. My shoe box storage has become overbearingly to small. I am having to put polish in an over flow box which has almost over flown itself. I have 194 polishes right now. WHOOOPS!!! If my boyfriend knew how much I had he would cut me off. I have tried about 150 of them. I have 10 in the mail that I am counting in that 194. I need more swatch wheels. I've gone through the 10 I have bought.

Today I have three more nail polishes all by the same brand. I am not sure how much these go for since they were a contest prize. You can find them at Icings, I wouldn't think that they would be more than $5. There is .65 fl. oz. in each of the polishes. 

Chrome Light Blue is my Base color, It is a metallic bright blue. If it was a matte or cream it would be a medium blue. It is a purple-ly blue. 

Chrome Berry is the middle sponged on color. It is a pink-y purple color with silver veining and is metallic like the other one. I really like it very professional looking in my eyes.

Chrome Teal is the last color which is also sponged on.  It is a green-y blue. Also metallic with the silver veining. 

I love this trio. Thanks to Joy for sending me these polishes. I love them to death!!!

Enjoy yourself

XOXO

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

Today is a very exciting day for me. You see I entered Okay Now Joy!'s 50 Follower Giveaway and surprisingly won... My jaw dropped when I found out because I never imagined winning anything else after the Musings From Manhattan Giveaway and the Olivia  Frescura Giveaway. 

Joy was giving away four nail polishes, one that I was really surprised about.

-Orly's Galaxy Girl was the one I was most lemming after since I got Halley's Comet.

-Icings Chrome in Teal

-Icings Chrome in Light Blue

-Icings in Berry

I am happy to say that I love each and every single polish that she had sent me. I am one happy woman. Thank you Joy you made me very happy. :P 

Enjoy yourself

30 Untrieds Day 22

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

With my recent nail mail I figured why not add a few shades that were sent to me into the mix. I am truly grateful for the nail polish that has been sent to me. I won a contest and got sent 6 OPI nail polishes from the new Touring America Collection. 

Uh-Oh Roll Down the Window is a murky green, similar to army green only a grey color. It is a cream finish, my favorite. My bottle looks so weird. I know it isn't from the store that is for sure, I think it was supposed to be PR or sent from the company. For one the tag on the bottom is black, the letters are bigger, and there is no peel here. I for one like that! Inside the bottle is veining like it isn't mixed up, I made sure to roll it around and try to mix it up. On the brush the color comes out great so it is just the bottle which I am perfectly fine with. 

What is up with the name? I don't get it... It could either mean one of two things, Both of which are disgusting. Who knows what was going on with OPI this time. I guess it makes sense, after all it is a Touring America LOL.

This is two coats without a top coat. I feel like an old record but with these 30 Untrieds I feel like I don't need a top coat. The polish dries within a few minutes which I love about OPI. That and their brushes are amazing, I love the flatness, it fits my nails so well. 

OPI can be found at Salon Supply stores, Trade Secrets, Ulta, and online. The price for these retail for $8.50 but you can sometimes find them on sale, if you do I suggest buying them cheaper. I also would check clearance bins because I have found OPI for $3-$5 which is a steal. If you have a Fred Meyer near you look there, that is where I get mine.

This polish was sent to me by Danielle from Musings From Manhattan. 

Enjoy yourself
