China Glaze-Grape Crush

Hey guys! Today's Post is ChG Grape Crush!
I couldn't really get a good picture they kept coming out dark : /
But I like it nonetheless! I love all purples <3

I broke my index finger Yesterday : / But it's okay lol
Kind of out of it today I stayed up crazy late cleaning and feel like death!

CND Blue & Purple Polka Dots!

For this Mani I used Wet n Wild- Black Creme, CND-Violet Shimmer & Ice Blue Shimmer!

Now My pics are kind of messy & I apologize for it! My nails got scratched up a bit I guess but it wasn't noticeable in person at all. I just painted them black and used a dotting tool to put the dots on em' :D

Hope everybody has a awesome day!

Also if you have any suggestions, questions, or anything you would like to see or me to post about I would love to hear about it in the comments below or in a email to Sarahmaye@gmail.com!

Summery Bright Watermarble

Fruit Mani!

Hello All! Today's nails are Fruit Themed! The Facebook Group Polish-aholics Anonymous has themed Monday's & this was this weeks! It is not even close to perfect but I'm still new to freehanding and pretty happy with how it came out, other that the little hair or whatever got stuck in the watermelon one lol

I hope you all are having a great day so far & that is continues or gets better! <3


I used so many polishes, I'm too lazy to go upstairs and find the names for them all but I will go by my memory.

Apple nail-China Glaze-Electric Pineapple, Zoya Sooki, Zoya-Apple
Orange nail-(can't remember the yellow D: it is a ChG) Zoya-Tanzy & Zoya-Jancycn
Watermelon nail-Fingerpaints-Give pink a chance, China Glaze-Watermelon rind
Pineapple nail-Zoya-Robyn, Zoya-Pippa, Zoya-Apple
Grape nail-Opi-Planks A lot (with Zoya Barbie on top) Zoya Mimi, Zoya-Apple (There is antoher purple Under mimi but I don't recall it's name sorry!)

Glow in the dark Hot Topic Polish (With pictures of it glowing too!)

Hello =] I bought this (along with another green one) A week or two ago! Now let me just say this is a LAYERING polish! The pictures below have a redic amount of coats, seriously like 9 or 10!
It is very pretty but not for wearing alone unless you like painting 10 coats and like seeing VNL lol!
But it was only $2.99 so it's okay with me :)

& Also it glows very well! But it is extremely hard to get good pictures of it! But you get the idea :)

& A side note-In exactly 2 months my daughter will be TWO years old!?!!! Where does the time go?

China Glaze Turned Up Turquoise + Gold Crackle

Hey Guys! I'm sorry I haven't been posting much lately.. I've been feeling uninspired I guess?  Not crazy about this mani I should have used a thicker coat of crackle but I figured whether I love it or not I need to post something lol!
I used China Glaze-Turned Up Turquoise & China Glaze Crackle-Tarnished Gold 

I didn't even keep this on so I'm going to redo them now lol so expect another post soon! & Monday I am doing a fruit themed mani for PAA's Monday challenge!

Okay for my nails I tried to do a Double lightening bolt using Nailside's tutorial HERE I messed up ALOT I am so not good at it like her but you know I am so excited I don't care haha this was like my 3rd attempt today and then I said F IT! I did one Hand in Gryffindor colors & the other in Slytherin! Hope you guys like it! And yes my Harry potter & Vol..[He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named] LOL Yes the Voldemort looks pathetic, I have very unsteady hands but you know what it's okay I smudged that nail anyway haha I think it is recognizable enough, good enough for me! Here are pics! Sorry there are so many!

Oh and I had to use 3 colors to make a lightening bolt so for hardcore fans who are anal about the colors and HP facts sorry lol!

Thanks for Looking! Polishes used on Gryffindor nails were- China Glaze-Mega Bite, China Glaze-Ruby Pumps, China Glaze-Sci fi.

Deborah Lippmann's Across the Universe =]

Here is the past 2 days mani :) I realized that I hadn't tried it yet and then I put it on as quickly as I could lol! I love DL polishes, ugh so worth the splurge imo! I can't wait to get my hands on Call Me Irresponsible. I honestly forgot how many coats this was 3 or 4 I *think*. Sorry about the tip shrinkage : ( Seche was to blame but I love it so much! I recently bought the Out the Door topcoat because I have heard really great things about it, maybe it wont cause shrinkage like SV. I also broke a little bit of my nails on my index & middle finger so sorry they are shaped funky! It seems like every time I get them looking good 1-2 breaks! I need to find something that works better I guess, I want to try Opi's Nail Envy I think I will end up finally trying it.
Hope everybody is having a great weekend! Mine is okay so far, kind of boring but they almost always are :P

Kleancolor Holo Chrome & I'm homee :)

 I'M HOME!! YAY! We went to Georgia to visit Family for the 4th of July. I am excited to be home though it is a lot hotter there! I guess being in Tennessee for two years made me less used to it lol it isn't as humid here. But anywhoo I painted my nails this color when I was down there and my 4th of July themed Mani peeled off on a finger..That has only happened to me maybe 2x before but it happened twice in the past 4 days there! Weird! Anyway here is is! Three coats of Kleancolor Holo Chrome!

I'm sorry about the mess, I was out of town so I didn't bring my cleanup brush or anything :P I really like this polish! Especially for $1!!!
