Slanted French Tip

Hey guys!

I've got a multi-colored, slanted french tip for you today. As I've said before, I'm not a huge fan of french tips but this one is a bit of a twist. I used 3 different base coats, Blue Grotto from Sephora by OPI, Caliente Romance from Sephora by OPI, and Fuchsia from China Glaze. I used White Cap from China Glaze for the french tip.

A simple twist on a classic look, hope you enjoyed!

Transitioning Into Fall

Hi bloggers!

If you live in the mid west of the US like Brielle and I do, then you know the seasons are beginning to change weather or not we want them to! So what does this mean for you nails? Of course you can keep them whatever colors you want but I do tend to generally follow the seasons when it comes to my color choices. Around this time of year I start using more reds and darker pinks to ease into fall. This NOFD is Sephora by OPI BYOBoy. I love this color, it's the perfect dark mauvey-pink.


I'm also going to start including some dupes with some of my posts. As my nail polish collection has grown and continues to grow, I've noticed I've gotten more and more dupes without really noticing that I had acquired so many. Some of the colors are from different seasonal collections and some or more permanent colors from different nail polish brands. This group of dupes are obviously reds, another good fall transition color. The colors from left to right: Revlon Valentine, China Glaze Phat Santa, China Glaze Drastic, and Sally Hansen Hollywood Scarlet.

On each finger there are two coats of the color.  As you can tell, they are all pretty similar shades.
Hope you enjoyed!

It's My Year

Hi bloggers!

Just a simple NOTD post. This lovely color is It's My Year from OPI from the Miss Universe Collection. A picture in the sun and in the shade which I typically don't post but it's hard to get a picture of the true color because of the shimmer, it's just beautiful!
 I also wanted to talk about a buffer I recently purchased from Sephora. Like most make up enthusiasts, I love Sephora and all of the brands they have but every once and a while there are products that aren't so great, this buffer is one of them.

The honeycomb side is the buffing side and the opposite side is the polishing side. I barely began to buff my nails and saw rather large pieces of my nail being taken off so I immediately stop buffing. If you are a usual nail buffer like, Brielle and I, you would have done the same thing! If you weren't paying attention and weren't careful as to how much you buffed your nails, you could easily over-buff them to the point where they would be very thin, uncomfortably thin and cause breaking. I would not recommend anyone buying this buffer. This definitely isn't changing my views on Sephora, I still love Sephora, they just missed the mark on this product in my opinion. 

Hope you enjoyed!
