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
XOXO

Makeup Fun.


Hello Lacquered Lovelies and Makeup Fanatics,
Today I was messing around with makeup and this was the final result. 
Almays Nearly There Makeup in 140 Buff. 
Benefit Erase Paste in No. 2 
Maybelline Fit Me Powder in 115. 
Elf Blush and bronzing duo (just the bronzer).
 ELF Pigment in Dreamy and Beachy. 
Urban Decay Eyeshadows in Dark Horse and Creep.
 Wet N' Wild Liquid Eyeliner. 
Avon Eyeliner in Black. 
L'Oreal Voluminous Million Lashes.
 L'Oreal HIP Lipgloss in Giddy.

I was just bored. I hope you like it. I worked really hard. It kind of reminds me of Corpse Bride. 



Enjoy yourself

30 Untrieds Day 7 Pink Wednesday

Hello Lacquered Lovelies,
You get what you pay for, in some cases this is very true and in others you get lucky enough to find a gem. I have only tried one other ELF nail polish and thought to myself that I would give another one a try because the other one was sort of old. I am glad that I didn't pay for this one, someone sent it to me. I am sad to say this one was such a bust because it was opaque in one coat. 

Now the pictures make it look like this polish is great but everything went wrong after I photographed the beauty of the polish. The nail polish literally slid off my nail on my left thumb, it left the most disgusting sticky feeling on my nail. I had re-did my thumb and went on taking more pictures. It did it again. Now I am one to wait and take my time on painting my nails because A.) I hate bubbles B.) I don't have much of anything to do with my day. Now it has been an hour, my nails are looking great besides that one that I planned on fixing later. I touched them and they weren't dry even after I used INM Northern Lights (shaken up), this top coat has always dried within five minutes for me. Next thing I know my nails are all smudged and nasty looking kind of like stringy and blehhh.

I am not too happy with it not one bit. 
ELF's Coral is a bright medium pink with a golden shimmer to it. I loved the application because in one coat it was opaque. Just to be sure I did two coats. Drying time was crap I hate polishes that take longer than 10 minutes to dry. 
You can find ELF polishes at Target, some KMarts, and Eyeslipsface.com for around $1 or in sets for $3-$5. I know I have seen them at Big Lots and the Dollar Store for Cheaper. 

Haha on my part, yesterday I forgot to name my post. I am trying to get used to this new interface of blogger. Anyone else kind of confused about it.

Also guess what this lucky lady just picked up today at 8am? Revlons Facets of Fuchsia and Sally Hansen Pink-y Ring. I need to get the blue one too, I almost did today but money is a little low for the polish fund so I passed it up. However I am going to layer these two and see what I get. Total glitterbomb!!!

Enjoy yourself
XOXO
