Neptune by Sinful Colors

Hello my friends, I hope everyone had a fantastic hump day!  :)

It is no secret I am a fan of Sinful Colors... I own around 180 of them and trust me: I HOLD BACK!  What can I say?  With their price tag of $1.99 and regular sales, they are really hard to pass up.  The polish I am sharing today came out with the Cast Away collection, and I had originally passed it up because it landed during a "no buy" month for me.  My husband actually pointed it out to me, but I was convinced it was a dupe for Essie's Smooth Sailing, so I passed it up.  Turns out it wasn't even close, but by the time I went back to the store it was gone.  Lucky for me, it landed at my local Big Lots last weekend, and I only paid a whopping $1!

Sinful Colors Silver Belle

Hello guys,

I get really excited about new collections, especially the ones that are holiday themed.  They are usually so full of color and so cheerful!  Today I am sharing Silver Belle from Sinful Colors.

Essie On A Silver Platter

I am a big fan of Essie.  I know it's one of those brands people love or hate, and I'm with the lovers!  I love the square bottles and how convenient they are for storing; I love their small brushes and thin, fast drying formulas, you get what I'm saying...  Today I have On A Silver Platter to share with you:

Sinful Colors Gilded

Hello guys!  Ah, it feels so good to be back in my little corner of cyberspace!  I am totally aware of how incredibly cheesy my statement sounds; I stand by it!  I had to take some time off from blogging to take care of some grown up stuff but fortunately I have free time again and here I am, super happy to share a few of the colors I have been rocking these last few weeks.

Today, I have a very cool color to share with you: Gilded by Sinful Colors.  Take a look!

Sinful Colors 24 Karat vs. Essie As Gold as it Gets

Hello everyone, it's 11/11... make a wish!  I wish a great Veterans Day to all my American friends.

I have another comparison for you today.  I picked up Sinful Colors 24 Karat and right away it reminded me of Essie's As Gold As It Gets.

Fergie Black Metal Magic & Wet N Wild Break the Ice

I am not a fan of white polishes on my skin, but I keep a few around because from time to time, I need a base for a glitter, and certain finishes just work better for some than others.  Today is the perfect example of this, take a look!

Sinful Colors Top Me Off

TGIF, am I right?  I have NO IDEA where this week went, but I sure am glad it's over!

Ladies, today I have Sinful Colors Top Me Off to share with you.  I had reservations about today's post because I don't feel the pictures I took do this polish much justice, but it's too pretty not to. 

Sally Hansen Midnight Glitz

I'll start with my personal bit of bad news: I broke a nail last night.  I did all I could to save it -as evidenced by the crazy glue all over my fingers- but this baby was beyond a tea bag repair, alas, I have nubs again for the next couple of weeks.  However!  I went a little bananas swatching over the weekend, so my nail length will be inconsistent in the next few posts, because I am more excited about some polishes than others, and I didn't swatch in order. :(

Okay, let's move on to the fun stuff!  Today I have another lovely polish by Sally Hansen to share: Midnight Glitz.

Milani Totally Cool & L'oreal Miss Pixie Make Decent Unicorn Pee!

I hope everyone had a safe and fun Halloween and Dia de los Muertos weekend, It was awesome and super busy for us!  Boy, am I glad to be able to sit here and sip on my coffee and blog with my pretty nails while my husband takes care of our kiddo, life feels perfect... now!

Not having ever experienced unicorn pee type nail polish left a hole in my soul, so I set out to patch it RIGHT. MEOW! (Super Troopers anyone?)   I am pretty happy with the results.  :)

Twinkle Toes-ty by Sally Hansen

So Halloween is here... happy Halloween, remember to keep it safe!  I have been running around like a chicken without a head doing some last minute alterations to my daughter's costume.  Totally worth it though, she looks so adorable! 

I have a beauty to share with you today: Twinkle Toes-ty by Sally Hansen.

Liebster Award Nominations!

Hello guys!  A few weeks ago, I was nominated for a Liebster Award by the lovely Gold Francine at therealbeautycase.blogspot.com.  I was really new around here and decided to wait a few weeks before paying it forward.  Well... how fortunate am I?  I got nominated for a second award right as I was getting ready to post about the initial one!  This time, I was nominated by obscenelyblue.blogspot.com.  

I decided to answer both set of questions tonight, so here we go!

Revlon Autumn Spice & Sally Hansen Copper Penny

Hi guys!  I am having a hard time believing it's autumn.  I mean, sure... we had a little sprinkle a couple of weeks ago but here in California we are constantly hitting the mid 80's so it just feels like a reeeeally long summer... but not on my nails. no sir!  Not today, check it out!
