Top Dollar

Sephora X, Out of Sight
Deborah Lippman, On the Beach

 I just wanted to show you two polishes that I got on sale at Sephora recently. Both were only $3.99 which is a steal for these brands. And this also gave me my first Formula X and my first Deborah Lippman polishes!!!! Which is just really exciting for me. I'll be posting some looks with them soon and letting you know how I liked them. I kinda wish I had a cream for Formula X instead of a glitter to better test the formula but this was the cheapest and the one I liked the most. So I hope you enjoy and have a perfectly polished day!!!

* And if you manage to find some deals at Sephora as good as this, Good Job and enjoy!




Silver Tips

Used:
*Orly, unknown purple (2 coats)
*Icing, Silver

This was super simple and I just wanted to show how it looked. I loved the color combo and the little twist on the classic french mani that this mani has. I also added an accent nail on my pointer finger on mt left hand which is a little unusual for me. I hope you enjoy and have a perfectly polished day!!!

Cinderella


Used:
*Avon, Vintage Blue (2 coats)
*OPI, Last Friday Night (1 coat)
*Stamper
*Sinful Colors, Matte finish top coat

I loved how this looked!!! It was like wearing a cinderella dress on my nails. So i hope you enjoy and have a perfectly polished day!!!!


This is what the color actually looked like. Below shows ones that are a brighter blue due to the camera. 



This wasn't the true color.

This wasn't the true color. 

Graffiti party

Used:
*Milani, Raving Violet (2 coats)
*Icing, silver
*Wet n wild, Bite the Bullet
*Wet n Wild, unknown mini
*Essie, Secret Affair

This was all done by dry brush on the main coat. I added the colors to hide some chips from my distressed mani and then just kept adding cause I liked how it was turning out. So I hope you enjoy it as well and have a perfectly polished day!!!


Highly Fabulous

Used:
*Formula X, High Frequency (2 coats)
*Wet n wild, Ice breaker (1 coat)
*Rhinetstones

For this look I used a Formula X polish pod. The color was a perfect turquiose and the formula was great, when the pod was working well. I had trouble with squeezing it to get the right amount and when the brush wasnt fully wet it tended to cause streaks. I do plan on trying them again and hopefully next time will work better. 
Of course my polish bubbled a bit so I added ice breaker on top. It also helped with any of my nails that still looked a little streaky due to the application. I used clear coat to put on the rhinestones and ta da!!!
So I hope you enjoy it as much as I do and have a perfectly polished day!!!

This is the polish pod in relation to a larger bobby pin. It was a lot smaller than I expected it to be from the pictures of them.

This is High Frequency by itself, with two coats.

Distressed again

Used:
*Raving Violet, Milani (2 coats)
*Silver, Icing (dry brushed)

This time I used a dark violet instead of black for the base, though color kinda looks about the same. This formula for Milani was the fast dry one coat kind. It did dry pretty fast but I used 2 coats because 1 didn't really work with this shade. 
Then I dry brushed the silver like I saw on a tutorial by Chalkboard nails and ta da! I hope you like it and have a perfectly polished day!!!

OPI Push and Shove

Used:
*lay down that base (1 coat)
*Push and Shove (2 coats)

This was my first try with this and I loved it. Later on I had some issues with the formula that I'll save for a later post but this is just showing how it looked my first time using it and with the base coat they prefer. 
I hope you enjoy and have a perfectly polished day!!!






Spiked

This is a look I did awhile back that I recently found on my computer so I thought I would put it up since its summery and fun. I can't remember what I used but I do know I tried the qtip watercolor trick which wasn't too bad but I need practice with since it didn't come out how I had hoped.
So I hope you enjoy and have a perfectly polished day!!!
