<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> So, it's Saturday here and my week has been a roller coaster of not enough sleep, too much work and hanging on for my holidays, LOL. Yesterday I picked up the Ulta3 Watercolor nail polishes that come in a pack of 5, one white base and 4 sheer polishes which are red, orange, blue and purple. I immediately thought of doing stained glass window nails..so today that's what I did! I am super happy with how they turned out and hope you like them :)</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So, how did I do these? First of all I started with the Ulta3 Sheer polishes,</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> I forgot to take a pic so I am going to borrow the packet picture from Cathy @ morenailpolish.com below.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I didn't use the white base as I already had a very light pinky creme polish on, which was SinfulShine I'm Blushing. I then stamped with Ulta3 Black Satin and Messy Mansion Plate MM01 which you can find <a href="http://www.messymansion.com.au/" target="_blank">here</a>.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">After I stamped the image I then colored in the "glass" panels with Cello Yellow, Seeing Red, Peek-a-Boo Purple and Marine Blue. I used a dotting tool to apply the polish in the lines. You will also see I have a green colored in a well. I mixed one drop of Cello Yellow with 2 drops of Marine Blue on a piece of baking paper and voile! Sheer green polish. I did 2 coats of each color to achieve a vibrancy, then sealed with Seche Vite top coat.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">If you look closely you can see some bubbling in the top coat, and I like that the bubbles create a glass-like effect on my nails. I had no troubles applying the sheer watercolor polishes from Ulta3. My fave color was the Peek-a-boo purple as I love purples and the green mixed up pretty easily. The polishes are indeed very sheer and I would recommend the white/light base to go with them for the best result... I purchased mine from Terry White chemist for $10 for the pack of 5, and these are a limited edition which you should pick sooner rather than later. You can find your nearest Ulta3 stockist locator <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Ulta3/app_470468419658881" target="_blank">here</a>.

It's Monday and I am participating in the Aussie Nails Monday challenge, today which is to use a polish starting with "S"! I have heaps of polishes starting with S, but I was drawn to my cute little Skull Neon Polishes that I bought from Kmart for a whole $7! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">These came in a little pack and contain neon colors of purple, green, yellow, pink and orange. For the best neon color, I used a base coat of white first and popped these colors over the top.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Now, for $7 for 5 polishes..it's pretty good value but how is the formula you ask? The yellow, pink and orange were super flawless. Great formula and non streaky application. I had more difficulty with the green and the purple. They required 3-4 coats to even out, but nothing too hard to deal with. It's funny how over the years when it comes to nail polish, I have discovered a true love for neon polish (as well as glitter, pastel, texture and holographic polish!). LOL. Are you a fan of neons or are they not for you?</span></div>

Not sure if anyone really missed me, but yeah..there seemed to be an interruption to the regular programming. Namely my will to be creative was taken from me with some low level antidepressants for Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Did not enjoy at all. I did do my nails..but it was a struggle to be creative and motivated. I haven't joined in an AN Monday challenge despite best intentions, and my instagram has been neglected as well. Although I have learned to crochet in the meanwhile. I actually really love it and am working on presents for others at the moment :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, nails. Here is what I have had on for the last few days. This is a base of the Maybelline Bleached Neon Tropink on my middle 2 fingers, then I put some striping tape and did a coat of China Glaze Strawberry Fields on all fingers. I then put a coat of Dance Legend Orlando flakie coat on my first and last finger and attempted some stamping over the top. It's there but you can't really see it, but don't care because the flakie is awesome!</span><br />

You know how when you think you do a good job of your mani's and then you take some pics and ugh, what a hot mess! Today's post is a little bit messy. It's not terrible but it ain't my best work either. The other day I picked up Sinful Colors Unicorn at Target for $2 and so popped it on. I am not sure Sinful Colors and I work so well as I have some crappy edges, but I think I'll persist and see what happens. Anyways, Unicorn is a sunny pastel yellow that I applied and then stamped a few nails with holo gold using Dance Legend New Messiah and an accent nail of glitter gradient used CrowsToes Maxxed Out.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This was still a happy mani even though it wasn't perfect. I loved the happy yellow color,the happy gold holo and the happy holo gold glitter. It doesn't take too much to make me happy, lol! Stamping always makes me pretty happy. What do you think of Sinful Colors..yay or nay? I really want to love them, but I am not sure I do..</span>Jashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07157989127317338987noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5848664526702893460.post-20514843821984276082014-08-06T18:00:00.000+10:002014-08-06T18:00:00.141+10:00Face Of Australia Mystique<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Hi guys :) Today I have for you one of the winter release of Face Of Australia Dark Side collection polish. This one is a gorgeous dusky teal called Mistique. The application of this polish was great despite a super wonky brush. It looks like the brush length is too long for the bottle and so it's all squashed. Despite that, this polish applied nicely and had good coverage in 2 coats. These pics had some tip wear as I took the pics 2 days later when the sun finally came out to play! :)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">How lovely is this? I managed to purchase mine on special from Priceline, so they were around the $3.20 mark..which is a an awesome bargain. The formula was great and I love, love, love the color. I have been impressed with the offerings from Face of Australia more and more recently so will def be keeping and eye out for future collections :)</span>Jashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07157989127317338987noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5848664526702893460.post-24511092298809164932014-08-03T17:56:00.001+10:002014-08-03T17:56:54.893+10:00Orly Pink Nude and Mentality Duality Dots<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Hey guys! I don't know if you missed me..prolly not so much...anyways. Life has been busy to the point of regular napping on the recliner chair after work.. then it has been the longer you leave something the more anxiety you have about doing it. My blogging has felt a bit like that. Wierd huh? I have been doing my nails so I really need to catch up. I did some awesome Christmas in July and neon nails recently..argh! Here I go about catching up..</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Today I have for you something I did for Crumpet's Simples challenge. The challenge was evenly spaced dots. I was having a particularly neutral feeling for this week so decided to use Orly Pink Nude for the base and Mentality Duality for the dots. This is also helping me overcome my hate of visible nail line..I don't mind it so much here! LOL.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Hey guys, long time no post. I haven't died, although I felt like it about a week and half ago. I was sooooooo sick with the cough/cold bugs going around that I had to resort to antibiotics (which I hate!) I was even too sick to do my nails *shock horror*. Although whilst I was sick I was suckered into Ghost Adventures/Ghost Hunters. Now, both these shows are about paranormal investigations and have very different styles. I initially thought Hunters was a bit better, but..they don't stay the whole night and they don't interact with the spirits. So of course, they catch not much! Ghost Adventures interact alot and as the series go along they learn alot (and become less douche like- Zac I am looking at you..) and the places they investigate are so interesting. So I guess I am a bit of a GAC convert. I've seen a ghost/spirit before and at the time was pretty scary due to the presence you feel. I can't imagine doing that all the time!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Anyways, nail polish. I have been wearing it. I have been taking some pics. I haven't been posting..erm sorry. I just haven't been feeling super creative and it's winter and my pics suck in winter. Anyway, I am committing to at least 3 posts a week..Mon, Wed and Fridays..so hold me to it m'kay? </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Here for you today is my NOTD and base for some nail art laters on in the week :) piCture pOlish hot lips. Now I probably should have worn this over white to make this more neon..but yeah, time and I it's one of my pet peves. Polish should be awesome on it's own without extra's! LOL.</span></div>

I think it's going to work in the dark and the cold and then coming home in the dark and the cold that gets me, bleh. Trying to get back on the healthy eating wagon which means preparing and cooking food takes up way more time than I'd like. Although on my "free" day I have been searching for a Po Boy just like Killer Po Boys in NOLA, have found a reasonable substitute here in cold ass Melbourne, but there really ain't nothing like the real thing!</span><div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Wow, isn't that pretty! The holo is gorgeous of course, the Violet is the lovely purple pigment and the "Blaze" is actually a pink/red fleck that runs throughout the polish. Of course this is better seen in the shade..and I might have forgotten to get good shots of that without some nail art..so, here is pics of Lilypad Lacquer Violet Blaze with stamping and french tip using OPI Push and Shove and a subtle accent nail on my pinkie of Nfu Oh 51. These pics are in a light box.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">You can see especially on my middle finger that there is a lovely pink fleck running through the polish. This is prominent in the shade but in full sunlight the linear holo finish stand out. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I am helping a friend move house on the weekend, so we'll see how the nails fare! Hopefully some catch up posts this weekend!

Today I have for you a brown holographic glitter polish that is super unique as it was a part of an Australia Day raffle that I won at least 2 Australia Days ago. This was made by the lovely Tara from Loki's Lacquer and celebrates all that is Australian...Vegemite! Now, Vegemite is something all Aussie kids are raised on, it's a yeast extract dark brown spread that is absolutely yummy on toast with lots of butter or in a cheese toasty (btw, only a thin spread is required or it's far too much!) and in nail polish form it looks like..this!</span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So happy I managed to catch the 0.3 seconds of sunlight we had today in cold old winterey Melbourne. Some people love winter, not I..I like warmth, daylight and sunlight (for holo's of course!). Tara, the owner of Loki's Lacquer isn't currently making polish..so I love that I have a few of her special polishes :)</span></div>

It's been a little while...life has gotten in the way of blogging. I have been polishing and I'll try and catch up a bit this week with my posts. I am currently trying to stick to a challenge or two. Today I have for you the SIMPLES challenge- Nail Art from Muggle to Mastery, which is a basics nail art onwards created by The Crumpet. You can check out Crumpets post <a href="http://www.the-crumpet.com/2014/05/simples-week-3-ombre.html" target="_blank">here</a>. This week is week 3 (I have one and two somewhere, erm, yes..let me go find the pics) anyways this is Ombre. Ombre is best described by The Crumpet as "Ombre literally means shadow, in French. An ombre mani, therefore, is one where the nails move through varying SHADES of the same colour, from light to dark, or dark to light, across the entire hand". Good to know how this differs from gradients!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> Since I am trying to do my nails and nail art with my untrieds still, I did a grey to black Ombre today. Now warning pics, with thumbs in it. Not my thing, haven't figured out how to do it gracefully yet so..sorry there.</span><br />

This is an untried and I know that I have already tried a polish by The Lady Varnishes, but Oubliette, which is a gorgeous black polish with orange and blue flecks was the reason I bought some of the other Labyrinth theme polishes by her. I did had Azature Black Diamond polish out to pop on and instead I reached for The Lady Varnishes Oubliette. Isn't Oubliette an awesome word in itself? I absolutely love Labyrinth and David Bowie has never looked better...it is still one of my favorite movies of all time. The Secretary with James Spader is at the other end of the spectrum of my fave movies..then there is Army of Darkness- Bruce Campbell, need I say more?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Anyways Oubliette is a black crelly polish with electric blue fleck and orange flecks..for this swatch I used 2 coats and Seche Vite top coat.</span><br />

LOL. I had a hard time deciding what purple to try on so layered a few until I had a purple glowy concoction. I've been playing with my lightbox, so hopefully I have some better pics, but as soon as I see a bit a sun outside, don't worry I'll be snapping some daylight shots.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So for these looks, I started with a layer of Ulta3 Blackberry Tart which is a dark purple jelly. I then topped it with Revlon Grape Fizz. Here is a few pics.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">First of all, Revlon Grape Fizz smells amazing and yummy! I really liked the blue and purple micro flecks in this polish and because I couldn't leave well alone I thought I would layer Cirque Coronation.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So loving purple..the layers of BlackTart, Grape Fizz and Coronation all bring something different to the end result. Blue flecks, purple fleck and red/green shift is all so pretty be it in the sun or the shade. There are also some scattered holo particles which you can see in the full sun. I'm having alot of fun finding untried polishes hiding in each draw of my helmer, although I think I could do a few months of untrieds! Next untried is black...:)</span></div>

For green I used Savvy Mint Julep, which in my opinion is leaning more blue than green. What do you think? Anyways I really liked this color be it blue or green and poppped on top of it Happy Hands For British Eyes Only on my ring finger for an accent then stamped with Hits Hera and Color Club Blue Heaven.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Hmm, the blue and green stamping had a lot more contrast in real life. Hera is a dark green and you can see it best in the bottom pic near the cuticle of the nail. Blue Heaven is a light blue..in these pics the circles all just look holographic! For British Eyes Only has some lovely blue and green glitters in it in a blue jelly base..overall this mani looks more blue than green to me, so a slight fail, but it was still pretty to wear! Now, onto some purple polish.....</span>Jashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07157989127317338987noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5848664526702893460.post-19297142992245291492014-05-08T22:05:00.001+10:002014-05-08T22:05:03.668+10:00L'Oreal Bananarama Love with stamping- Yellow for Untried May<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Hi guys! I have a bit of a mani fail for you today but you know, you get that sometimes.. I was going for a tropical flower theme for my yellow untried of L'oreal Bananarama Love. Not this was super sucessful, what do you think? For this look I did 4 coats of Bananarama Love which is a yellow jelly polish. I did an accent nail of Ulta3 Showstopper (black and white glitter-untried) and stamped with China Glaze Liquid Leather (not untried!) and Seche Vite top coat.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So, I think this would have been better with a brighter yellow or with a glitter sandwich..hmm? Anyways, it was a bit of fun and I used 2 untrieds and I quite liked the actual stamp I used. It's almost the end of the week here..thank goodness. Just have to survive tomorrow. I think my green and blue untried polish is going to be a mash up of 2 into one! See you tomorrow :)</span>Jashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07157989127317338987noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5848664526702893460.post-63969580759246312612014-05-07T16:00:00.000+10:002014-05-07T16:00:06.597+10:00Face Of Australia Some Like It Hot and OPI Jinx- Orange for Untried May<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Hello...orange..do you love it or hate it? I never gave orange polish much thought in the past apart from "only old people wear orange"..boy was I wrong. Corals and oranges are amongst some of my most fave polishes to wear, neon on toes is a must for summer and suprisingly the brighter the better on my nails is the only way to go. So, I was out and about and saw Face of Australia had a sale in Big W. So I thought I was ping the barcode on the Screen Siren collection and to my suprise they were a whole $1.75, so of course..they all came home with me. This collection is all inspired by Marilyn Monroe and this one is called Some Like It Hot and is a bright leaning neon orange.</span><br />

Today I have for you Pretty Serious Hell on Wheels with an accent nail of Vicious</span><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> Vampire.

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">How do you not love these reds together? They are just gorgeous polishes by themselves and the formula for both were excellent, together is a match made in polish heaven. I have a few more Pretty Serious polishes I am keen to pull out for Untried May. I tend to grabby hands all the lovely colors and forget which pretties I have stashed! Loving untried May so far :) What do you think of these 2..do you have them? You can buy some Pretty Serious at their website, <a href="http://www.pretty-serious.com/" target="_blank">here</a> and they are having a sale at the moment, with selected polishes for $5.95 AUD!</span>Jashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07157989127317338987noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5848664526702893460.post-2830791051814061852014-05-06T21:59:00.000+10:002014-05-06T21:59:22.370+10:00Illamasqua Glitterati - Glitter for Untried May<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Hey guys, today I have for you a nail art look this is using Glitter for May 4th in the Untried May and The Amy's Untried Challenge. Now, I have quite a few glitter polishes that I haven't tried but when I was looking among all the pretty polish I realized I haven't tried either of the 2 Illamasqua's I own and Glitterati is the perfect cold weather color. For the base of this nail art look I used another untried OPI Meet Me on the Star Ferry, 2 coats with a top coat then I used striping tape placed at different thicknesses to create and increasing width stripe down each nail. Glitterati is a gorgeous maroon polish with holo gitter..so I did an accent nail with the full glitter polish in all it's glory.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The flash captures what I would imagine sunlight would, and OPI Meet Me on the Star Ferry has a surprising scattered holographic bling to it.Illamasqua Glitterati is lovely and squishy and the holo glitters are easy to apply with not much fishing required. I wish I had some daylight to take better pics but with 10 hour shifts and winter coming, it gets harder :( </span>Jashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07157989127317338987noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5848664526702893460.post-62075382515023290792014-05-05T18:00:00.000+10:002014-05-05T18:00:07.245+10:00Catrice Call Me Princess- Texture for Untried May<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Happy Monday! Today I have for you my first Catrice and one of my newest untried's in my collection courtesy of the lovely <a href="http://www.labmuffin.com/" target="_blank">Lab Muffin</a> who muled some polish for me from Switzerland! So cool :) She sent me this Catrice Texture polish called Call Me Princess, so when I saw Texture for May 3rd on The Amy's Untried Challenge I had to see what it was like! Now, can I just say, this is sooo glarey and in-your-face pink with gold shimmer texture and I love it because of it! For this swatch I used 2 coats of Call Me Princess and I was lucky enough to catch some sun in between the cold and miserable rain this is our weather in Australia.. can you tell I miss summer??</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This is actually a really pretty pink texture and super fun for when you are feeling girly and reminds me of a pink version of OPI Jinx. The formula was really good and this was 2 coats but I think it could have done with a 3rd coat. What do you think about this? It's pretty much a love or hate polish and I do love it, LOL.</span>Jashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07157989127317338987noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5848664526702893460.post-16361475451383935662014-05-04T23:20:00.000+10:002014-05-04T23:20:11.414+10:00L'oreal Jolly Lolly- Jelly for Untried May <span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Hi guys..this is my 2nd post to try and catch up for Untried May :) I'm going to try and have a post for each day of the month, see how that goes! The 2nd of May is an untried Jelly polish in Amy's Untried Challenge, so this is going to be a quick post as it's already late here. Today have a straight swatch for you of L'oreal Jolly Lolly which is in the set of squishy jelly L'oreal polishes released a little while ago. I was a bit slow on the uptake when it came to jellys/leadlight/sheer polishes but I really love Jolly Lolly..so red and squishy! This is 3 coats with no top coat.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I really loved this color. I am coming to terms with coping with a visible nail line and I don't mind it as much as I used to. The formula and clean up was really good and the vibrant red color is amazing. I bought mine from Ebay as I totally missed the trend here in Australia. Sometimes I am not thrilled with a trend and regret not picking up the colors, like in this case..not so sure it will be the case with the new OPI Neon collection coming..</span>Jashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07157989127317338987noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5848664526702893460.post-19663037494243898372014-05-04T19:03:00.001+10:002014-05-04T23:20:24.813+10:00The Lady Varnishes That's Close Enough- Crelly for Untried May<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Hi guys, so..its Untried May time! I am going to do a combo of Untried challenges with <a href="http://shattermeclaire.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank">Shatter Me Claire</a> and cross posted instagram of The Amy's Untried Challenge to try and guide me with some ideas of using my untrieds in the month of May! So I have a few days to catch up on..May 1st is Crelly. For today I have The Lady Varnishes That's Close Enough which is a blurpley crelly with micro blue and copper glitters and larger copper hex glitters. For this swatch I used 2 coats with a top coat as the formula dries matte. You can also check out my pics on Instagram with my username @jasmsb and the hashtags of #amysuntriedmay #untriedmay</span><br />

It's me..again..here is one of my mani's that I wore for Austism Awareness month in April :) Essie Bikini So Teeny is one of those polishes that everyone raves about..or hates! The color is gorgeous, the formula seems to be a bit hit and miss for some. To be honest, I don't have any problems with Essie's formula but I do tend to have the bottles with the etched Essie logo and not the printed ones. I wonder if that makes a difference?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">For this look I used 2 coats of Essie Bikini So Teeny and a top coat. I then added a simple cross of striping tape and filled in the triangle areas with different blue polishes. The top one is Girly Bits Blue Eyed Lawyer, the glitter is Picture Polish Splash, Essence Bonnie on the left hand side and the blue holo is Lilypad Lacquer Deep Blue Seeing.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I loved Essie Bikini So Teeny and had quite a few compliments on the color. I especially liked the Girly Bits and Lilypad Lacquer polishes that I used in the nail art and I can't wait to use them as more than just an accent! Hope you liked this look as much as I did :)</span></div>

I haven't blogged in forever! I hurt my eye last Sunday (complete clumsiness!) and haven't been up to doing much the last week. I have quite a few pics of polish and nail art that I have done, including Untried Polish for May that are piling up. So..instead of a really long blog post..there is going to be a few seperate posts all at once...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So, first off..OPI Taylor Blue, now there is a story behind the Taylor Blue. I have been meaning to buy this off the <a href="http://taylorsgift.org/" target="_blank">Taylors Gift</a> website for a while and in the meantime I bought a bottle from a blog sale. Then, of course I saw on facebook the other day that signed bottles of Taylor Blue were being sold with one of my fave actors, Alex O'Loughlin! I have a thing for B-Grade tv shows and movies, and Moonlight was a fave :) I picked up a signed bottle of Taylor Blue and a hoodie for a good cause and now I have two bottles of Taylor Blue...one to use, one to look at, LOL. So onto it, here is my swatch of Taylor Blue.</span><br />

Just wanted to post a quick review of Sally Hansen's Big Matte Top Coat which I bought from Kmart for $9.95 the other day. I seem to have a matte top coat shortage so wanted to see what this was like. Now since I already had on L'Oreal Miss Pixie with Cirque Magic Hour and some stamping, I decided to topcoat it and see how it looked. Now the Sally Hansen bottle says to top coat directly to the polish you have applied, but since I already wore this with Seche Vite for a few days I thought I would see how that goes! LOL.</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">So here is Miss Pixie and Magic hour after the application of Sally Hansen Big Matte Top Coat</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">As you can see, the application of Sally Hansen Big Matte Top Coat certainly mattified the Seche Vite and the look of the polish underneath. The blue of L'Oreal Miss Pixie became more opaque and the glitters in Cirque Magic Hour became more pronounced at a tiny bit less sparkly, but not by much. They also look imbedded in the blue polish rather than floating on the top. I also like how the copper of Essie Penny Talk became more like used, dull copper :) I didn't think I would love the matte look as much as the shiny, and I don't..but I quite like it as a switch up, but not as my first preference. I had no trouble with application or dry time of the Sally Hansen Big Matte Top Coat and it wore very well for the 2 days I had it on!</span></div>

Here is another blue mani for you for Paint It Blue month for Autism Awareness. I love blue so a month of it is no great hardship! Today I have for you a Jelly and a glitter..with a little stamping thrown in for good measure. I'm having a few personal stress issue at the moment, some mine, some my family, some my friends which means I haven't had time to sit down and just paint my nails, or plan to paint my nails. I still have polish happening but mostly just fitting it in around hospital visits, work, cooking paleo food and some sleep. On the upside I feel more active? Wierd huh. So this is my nails that I am sporting at the moment. L'oreal Miss Pixie which is a brilliant blue jelly- 3 coats for this look. A top coat of Circque Magic Hour and some puzzle stamping with Essie Penny Talk.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So, L'oreal Miss Pixie..love! Visible nail line, yeah, but so? Hehe. This was 3 coats and I probably could have done a 4th to make sure there was no VNL, but that was so not the point of having a jelly polish. Some fading at the tips with the polish but that is probably my application. Cirque Magic Hour has beautiful blue and copper flakie glitter in a clear base. I did have to add thinner to make the clear base less gluggy, but the glitters were easy to apply despite that. I matched up Essie Penny talk for my stamping and puzzle pieces were the choice of course! Hope you are ready for the week ahead..I wish there was more weekend than working week, LOL.</span></div>

Happy hump day :) Today I have for you some pics of the next Paint It Blue manicure I wore for the month of April. Yes, it's various blue for the entire month here. Today I have a straight swatch of China Glaze Frostbite and then some nail art I did with it. The only downside of coming into winter here is that there was no sun for the nail art pics :( I am going to have to get my lightbox out soon methinks. I had a little trouble with Frostbite, it's a gorgeous electric blue shimmer, but it was thin as all get out so I had to keep shaking the bottle in between application on each nail..so it was a bit time consuming but very worth it..you think?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Gah, so pretty! The electric blue with blue shimmer is purty. This was 2 coats with top coat :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Now, I attempted a Waterfall mani with the striping from the cuticle..but I failed completely. So I am just calling this a striping nail art. I used Kleancolor Catch Me, China Glaze Bahamian Escape, Kleancolor Metallic Aqua and Ulta3 New Years Eve. I also did an accent nail with New Years Eve and Essie Shine of the Times.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">There was no sun for the stripe mani pics, sorry about that :( It looks pretty good in the pics but was better with the sun out! Not sure what to do about the thin formula..maybe leave the bottle open for a bit to thicken up? I am still going to be painting it blue with the next mani..going to try and hit some untrieds. Hope your week is going well, check you laters!</span><br />
