'Cinderella' by Sinful Colors

I realize that soooo many people have posted swatches of this but so what :p

I finally decided to stop in a Walgreen's and pick it up. It was the last one in the rack so it must still be fairly sought after. I'm glad I grabbed it because it really is a great polish, especially for $1.50!

It's a beautiful soft baby blue with micro pink glimmering flakies in it :D Yummy!

A close up.

When it dried it lost a little of it's iridescent pink shimmer but it was still beautiful and you could still see it if you looked.

Week 15 - Easter Spring Mani

Here is my Easter mani! I just love wearing it. I was out at a few stores yesterday and got a lot of compliments :D It's nice to know that more and more people are appreciating nail art and broadening their horizons past pink. red and beige.

Here's my right hand

I started with a base of Pure Ice 'Super Star', taped off a little less than half my nail and painted the rest with SH 'Bubblegum Pink', Pure Ice 'New Lilac' and Pure Ice 'Wild Thing'.

This was my first time using the white from Pure Ice. I'm not too disappointed but I still like SH 'White On' much better. Their purple was a nice frosty formula and the green is just awesome! It also works great for stamping. Notice how the green turned the white polka dots a lighter shade of green? I wish they all did that cause I LOVE it!

Then just to make them feel a little more like Easter eggs I added some stamping. This design was in large part from a design by PHD (Polish Hoarder Disorder) from a LONG time ago. I wish she still was blogging because I loved her art.

With the thumb :)

Another shot of my right hand plus thumb.

What do you guys think? Did you enjoy this challenge?

What is your favorite white base? Why?

Week 14- Stripes Mani

I wasn't really happy with my striped nail design earlier this week so I decided to redo it.

I'm so glad I did because I absolutely LOVE this one!!

I stared with Mabelline 'Onyx Rush' and added foil pin striping. I wouldn't say it was easy or fast but I will say that it was easier and faster than I expected! I will do this mani again for sure. I think it would be perfect for New Years Eve.

A shot out in the sun :D

Love this rainbow design!

Oh, and btw, Mabelline's 'Onyx Rush' was a disappointment. The brush was stiff, cheap and uneven. It wasn't even close to being wearable without two thick coats. And it dried very dull. Not matte, like a neat looking dull but just blah :P Still it didn't slow down this rockin' mani so I'm still happy :D

I still haven't had a chance to catch up with every one's blogs but I'm hoping I can find time someday soon. Thanks for peeking in!
