31 Day Challenge Day 7

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

First week down and 3 days until I am into the designs. Today is black and white nails.

I did a very simple design on this remember I am saving up for the big designs in the patterns days. I am wearing Wet N' Wild's French Creme White and LA Colors Art Deco In Black. I did dots on every other finger and stripes on the other fingers. On my thumb I did a mix of both. I am not sure why the white is coming off as a grey color, I swear it isn't. In one of the last posts I told you that I am testing out different settings on my camera.

Tomorrow is metallic day and I have the perfect idea in mind.

Enjoy yourself

XOXO

Happy Halloween

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

As promised here is what I am for Halloween this year. I actually was two different things, my sister has a Halloween party which I dressed up for and then what I am actually today. Both costumes are very similar, I used the same nail design and a lot of the same makeup. 

For my sisters party I was Ivy from Batman, I may be able to find a picture from the party but I am not sure yet, If you see a picture here than I found one but if not than no. Today I am a forest nymph or green fairy. I only really did the makeup and nails this year so I am not really going to post an outfit.

For my makeup in this I used the greens from Wet N' Wild's Cool As A Cucumber palette, a no name eyeliner from Hot Topic, a neon glitter from Sally's Girl, black liquid eyeliner and black mascara. Pink lipgloss from HIP and Pearlescent Pink Blush from Wet N' Wild. 

My other costume I alternated between red and green. My eyes were green and I had green glitter. For my contour and lips/eyebrows were all red. Very Ivy-ish.

For my nails I used Essence Lime Up! and sponged on OPI's Don't Mess With OPI, Finger Paint's Scenery Greenery, and Orly's Rock Solid.

I hope your Halloween is as enjoyable as mine. 

Enjoy yourself

XOXO

Halloween Challenge Saturday

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

Spider Saturday. Sad thing is that I am going to have to take this off before tonight because I have a Halloween Party to go to and it is costume only. Remember I will show you what I am going to be on Halloween and that will be makeup and nails maybe even outfit if I am feeling dangerous enough. 

I just did spiders and webs today but I am not sure that you can see the spiders but they are there. I used Wet N' Wilds Behind Closed Doors and grey acrylic paint. 

I hope you liked it.

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 26

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

Today was a 3 polish type of day... We will see if I get through all of my untrieds.  If not I will post a list of polish I haven't tried yet on my closing of 30 Untrieds which I plan on posting on the 30th of this month... 4 more days.

OPI's A-Taupe The Space Needle is a brown grey-ish color. Goes on opaque, at least for me. It also has those veins that the other OPI's that I have recently been sent. I don't know if it is because they are directly from the company or if their formula is different compared to the other polishes I have. It doesn't effect how the nail polish goes on just looks odd.

OPI Honk If You Love OPI is an almost eggplant purple. I had to apply two coats on my ring finger. I chose this color because it is in the same family as ATSN.  Again same as the other one.

You can find those two nail polishes in various locations that sells OPI, for around $8.50 but can some times be found on sale.

Lastly is Wet N' Wild's Tangled in My Web which is a black glitter. Very sparse I may say, you really have to layer it on to get the glitter on. Or just pat the side of the brush on your nail. This polish is apart of their On The Prowl Collection which is out for Halloween. Can be found at multiple drugstores for around $2. 

Sorry for being so late tonight.... I hate posting later. I have been napping all day because I think I am coming down with a cold.

Enjoy yourself

XOXO

30 Untrieds Day 24

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

6 More days... And 10 or so more nail polishes that could be tried. For the rest of the week I think I am going to double my polishes. Like I'm Feeling Nail-Venturous said on my post about the new polishes that I got a day ago, I will have more polishes to add to my Untrieds.

This is one of the polishes I got yesterday... 

Cougar Attack from Wet N' Wild's On The Prowl, it is a brown based nail polish with pumpkin-y colored glitter. It needs two coats to be completely 100% opaque.  I really like this color it is very unique... Like nothing I have at least. I think Pumpkin Spice from Sally Hansen might be close.

I haven't been feeling too hot today, my stomach hurts really bad. I am not sure what has been going on. All I know is that I missed out on a party because of my stomach pains. 

Enjoy yourself

XOXO

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 16

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

I seriously can't believe I am half way through this, I have got exactly 14 days to go. This is a really good challenge for myself, I can get through this. 

Again sorry for posting later in the day but as it gets later in the year here it gets darker, So I wait for the sun to be completely out. 

Today I have two nail polishes. I did one color through out my nails and then went in with a glitter accent nail. Classic right? 

ELF's Medium Red is a blue based red with a cream finish. It takes two coats for the polish to be opaque. This one isn't like it's sister (Coral--Day 7), I don't mind this color or the polish. In fact the polish applied great, dried in a nice time, and hasn't chipped yet. But it still has the opportunity to chip since the day isn't over. ELF can be found at Target and Eyeslipsface.com for $1.

Wet N' Wild Sparked is a pink-y red glitter, with dark pink, light pink and silver glitter. This glitter could be worn all by itself and could be opaque in one coat. I absolutely love it with the red. I fear this one will chip before the other one. Wet N' Wild can be found almost anywhere for around $.65- $1. 

Enjoy yourself

These are in no particular order, some I have tried and some I haven't.

30 Untrieds Day 9

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,

Sorry this is a little later in the day. I usually like to get this up sooner but it takes me about 2 hours to get ready in the morning which includes eating, painting my nails, waiting for them to dry, taking pictures, editing the pictures, and then writing the blog about the nails. With taking the pictures I have to make sure the sun is out because I take all of my pictures (now at least) in the light of the sun, I will snap two pictures one in the shade and one in the direct sunlight. I feel that the sun best represents the color. Also my camera doesn't like artificial lights for some weird reason. 

I bought this color about a week or two ago and I was eager to try it because it was similar to its sister also from the same collection. This polish and its sister have the most gorgeous scattered holographic micro glitter. I fell in love with the other one so why wouldn't I fall for this one? 

Wet N' Wild Blue Wants to Be A Millionaire is a gorgeous medium blue. It is a sheer color so layering is most likely a must unless you are like me who rather capture the true color. This is a glitter polish and the glitters are holographic. When dried this polish has a slight gritty finish which I enjoy so I just leave the polish as is. As for the wear of this polish I am not sure but its sister (Hannah Pinktana) did hold up for a week.

Sorry for the nasty gap between the cuticle and the color I didn't realize how big it looks. Icky.

I think the names for the Wet N' Wild Fast Dry nail polishes are so cute, I bet they aren't the first one to come up with names like these but they sure are cute. I have a few of them, some are good and others are just okay and some really suck like FuchsiaRama.

Enjoy yourself

XOXO
