Sinful Colors Unicorn with Stamping and Glitter

Hey guys! 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.

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..

Sinful Colors Scene Stealer- Pink Ombre

Hi guys, how's your week going? Mine is full of ups and downs..I think it will eventually break even by the weekend. Our work Christmas in July is this weekend so that's something to look forward to. Frocking up, socializing and good food and a beverage or two is always a good thing. I have no idea what I am going to wear ...on me or my nails..I am sure I'll think of something! Today I have for you one of the newer release Sinful Colors glitters recently released called Scene Stealer. This is a pink and gold glitter polish with holographic pink diamonds in it. I decided to incorporate this a pink ombre look that I felt like doing!

Pink and Piratey!

 I really like Sinful Colors Scene Stealer..its a cute glitter and was easy to apply. I needed to fish a little to get the diamonds out, or would recommend shaking it up well :) I really wanted to capture this in the sun, but alas..no sun in Melbourne for the last 2 days, so lightbox photos only.I am mentally gearing up to nubbify my nails before I head overseas in September..I think it will make upkeep and travelling easier..I am also considering taking bubble wrap with me for my "souvenir" polish purchases, is that wierd?? LOL

Sinful Colors Winterberry Stamped

Sorry for the lack of posting..I will try and make it up with a few more post to catch up, and I have some nomination for  a best blogger award! Thank you so much for the girls nominating me:) I will make that my very next post. In the last week I have had a nail breakage, not complete nubbinization but they do look short to me after having nice long nails. This post is from just after I had Sinful Colors Winterberry on. I decided to stamp with Essie Penny Talk as I though they would go perfect together. I used my new Winstonia plates that I didn't order from the Winstonia website as at the time they didn't do international shipping, but I believe they do now. What I love about these plates is that they have reciprocal images of a design where you either get the outline of the image or the blocking around the image :)

So what do you think about this combo? I personally think it looks very elegant and it was a super quick look to achieve. There was a bit of tip wear with Sinful Colors Winterberry by the time I stamped this, but I still think it looks pretty good. You have to be very close to notice all the flaws..luckily life is not a series of close ups! LOL.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend. I need to share my next Autism Awareness mani, a Northern Star polish I wore..and the Blogger Award questions..see you soon!

Sinful Colors Winterberry

Hiya! It's Sunday evening here and I've had a tough afternoon shift at work..but I do have enough left in me to post a swatch of relatively new polish brand (in Australia anyways!) Sinful Colors. When they first came out missing from the stand was this color, Winterberry, so of course I had to find it! Winterberry is a dusky mauve/purple with a lovely shimmer in it which is perfect for coming into Autumn/Winter :) This polish is a bit deceptive, it could be written off a just another mauve..but it has such a pretty shimmer in the sun. The pics  below show Winterberry with 2 coats and top coat and the formula was great.

 Yes, a few too many pics..but I really loved this polish, more than I thought I would. It's one polish in the shade, and another in the sun. The dusky mauve is lovely, the lighter purple tones make this polish a stand out for me. The final picture above really says it all!. I purchased mine from Priceline for $4.95 but Kmart and Target also stock Sinful colors so you may be able to find it there :)
