Black and White Glitter Topper Comparison and Julep Adriana!

Hey all! Today I have a swatch of Julep Adriana and a black and white glitter polish comparison to show you featuring two indie polishes!

I bought a bunch of black and white glitter polishes recently and I've hardly/never used them! I kind of fell in love with all the glitter toppers featured in this post and I'm thinking of doing a gradient topped with one of them and posting that tomorrow!

I've made myself a light box but I still need some white light lightbulbs and a few lamps, so bear with the inconsistent lighting! Maybe I'll post my gradient topped with black and white glitter tonight if I get my light box in working order by then!

Anyways, onto the pictures!

I took a few pictures in the Sun of Adriana after I took these shade pictures, and I noticed it had bubbled pretty badly. What you see here is two coats and no top coat! I didn't wait very long between coats, but I waited as long as I do swatching Black Sheep Lacquer polishes and they have never bubbled on me!

Thumb and ring finger: Hard Candy Black Tie Optional

Index finger: Dollish Polish Putting on the Ritzzz!

Middle finger: Black Sheep Lacquer A Letter to the New York Post

Pinkie finger: Sally Hansen Tweedy

They were all super easy to work with and had lovely formulas!

Let me know if you have a favourite or any questions in the comments! Thanks for reading my lovely people! :)

China Glaze Inner Beauty and Simple Cartoony Flowers!

Hello everyone! Today I have swatches of China Glaze Inner Beauty and some simple floral nail art to share!

I'm really not sure about what lighting looks the best for my pictures so lately the lighting of my pictures has been very varied, I apologize! I'm thinking of making or buying a light box for more consistent pictures, let me know what you think I should do or a good light box you've heard of in the comments!

Onto the pictures!

This is three coats of Inner Beauty and a coat of top coat! It had a lovely formula and it seemed to dry pretty quick!

The blue seen here is Black Sheep Lacquer Aquabat (without glitter), the orange is Black Sheep Lacquer Orange Blossom, the pink is Butter London Trout Pout, and the green is Julep Adriana!

Thanks for reading everybody! I think I'll be painting some nails today and tonight I get to babysit my boyfriend's little baby niece, I'm so excited! Hope you all have a lovely day planned as well! :)

Star Candy Polish's Yay! Swatch and Review! =)

I have another lovely Star Candy Polish polish to show you! This one's from the adorable Ponyville Collection and it's called Yay!!

As you can see, Yay! is a yellow crelly polish with small light blue circular glitters, and large/medium sized holographic pink butterfly glitters (to me they look orange but apparently they're pink, I must see some colours differently than others!)! I used two coats of Julep Blake as undies for this polish because I don't wanna use up this beauty up so quickly! I did have to fish around a bit for butterfly glitters, but I'm positive that's only because of the small bottle and little brush! I would recommend getting the larger bottle of this polish for the longer brush and more of this super cute polish!

Now onto the swatches!

A few pictures taken inside with flash to show off the holographic butterflies!

You can get Star Candy Polish polishes from their store here, and you can check out the other Star Candy Polish polish I've swatched and reviewed (Orion) here! Thanks for reading! :)

Julep Grape Mani =)

My boyfriend started making grapes the other day on a plastic bag with my polishes so I decided to do some grapes today! All of the polishes I used are pictured below and you can see their names in one of the pictures!

Multicoloured Stud Mani!

I got the little bag of studs I ordered so I decided to try them out :). Expect a lot more posts over the next two weeks because I'm in between college semesters and I have time to redo my nails for any reason! =)

From thumb to pinky these are: OPI's Fiercely Fiona, Color Club's Edie, Julep's Claire, Julep's Eden, and Julep's Adriana!

My Last Julep Maven Box (April It Girl) and My Naked Short Nails!

I accidentally forgot to skip another month of my Julep Maven subscription, and so I cancelled it finally =(. Anyways, this was the April It Girl box, complete with a little rock candy lollipop :).

From left to right (yellow to green): Abbie, Eden, and Mackenzie :)

My nails after removing my last mani (OPI's Get Your Number (liquid sand) here)!

And the reason why I cut them so freaking short.

Look at the difference!

All Nail Envy-ed up! I think it's a good idea for me to finally use Nail Envy as the instructions indicate, and since it's final exam week next week, it's also probably a good idea to not be bothering with nail art for a little while! Thanks for reading!

Did Some Nails This Weekend =)!

We had a visit with my friend and her family this weekend so I did some nails! I also did my sister's, so here comes a bunch of pictures! :)

For these I used Orly's Liquid Vinyl, E.l.f.'s Teal Blue, and some rhinestones I bought that are similar to this set!

For these ones I used Essie's No More Film, L.A. Girl Disco Brites' Disco Ball, and Julep's Matte Topcoat!

For these ones I used American Apparel's California Trooper, some glitter that came in this set, and Julep's Matte Topcoat!

And finally, for these I used China Glaze's Bahamian Escape, Julep's Blake, Essie's Play Date, and Orly's Liquid Vinyl!
