Mr. Mail man made me very happy today, so what did I find when I went to the mail box you may ask well I found these....

I orderd these from Llarowe's they are the most beautiful nail polishes I've come across in a long while. First let me talk about hits, I got Hera(teal), Atena(pink), Dionisio(purple), Zeus(black), and Hit's Jazz (green and blue flakies). I can't tell you how much I love these polishes I just love them. The Hits Olimpo are holo and the holo's really stand out and it's another what you see is what you get without a million coats. And Jazz is my new favorite flakie hands down it's a smooth flaky the flakes don't stick out everywhere it looks like I put foil on my nails myself I just can't stop looking at it. It also looks amazing over black because thats when the blue flakes really pop out I'm going to mix it up and see what other colors I can mix it up with but hands down my favorite flaky so far. Did I mention only one coat lol I'm a big fan of one coat nail polishes. But they are so pretty when I was doing the swatches I didn't what to take them off but as I kept going I feel in love with each color.

Saving the best for last A England is my new favorite brand of nail polish I love love love love love St. George. It's the most beautifulest sparkly green nail polish that I've had the honor of putting on my nails. and I rarely put green on my nails. The only time I put a full green on my nails is Christmas and when I paint a peacocks on my nails, but this green is a sexy classy green. What I love about this polish is it only took one coat, yes just one coat and that was it. Also another what you see is what you get not only that it went on so smooth it was like butter. I honestly didn't want to take it off.

Honestly how beautiful is that polish, I think that I'm going to have to stock up on A England Nail polish now =D. So question what is your favorite brand of nail polish?

Today was such a great day, I just felt happy and relaxed so I felt what better time than to deep clean the house... So I pretty much spent my day cleaning everything in sight... I clean the house so well I don't even remember where I put half of my husbands things go figure lol. But while cleaning I came across my high school year book(you know the book that you just have to go through every time you see it yet you wish you would lose it) but looking at it's cover and seeing the mascot which Dunnellon's was a tiger yay tigers I thought it would be really awesome to see if I could get the design on my nail so this is what I ended up with.

Yea the eye of the tiger dont mine the lint and fuzz on the nails I was in the middle of cleaning... yea i'm kinda scatter brained like that at times lol. But I figured I'd do the eye of the tiger since that was also the schools theme song... how original right...or not but what can you say it was high school for some the best years of our lives for others not so much. Anyways I liked how it turned out and it wasn't as hard as I thought just an eye, some sponging(I really like sponging) and some strips, then for the rest of the nails strips I didn't want to go over board and end up with 10 eyes only thing is I had to do this twice because I realized when I took the pictures the eyes where backwards lol. But other than all of that I can see myself totally rocking these nails more often I'll probably try another animal... hmm what animal should I try next.... maybe a peacock? So that's the question what animal would you totally dedicate your nails to?

This is going to be a short post as my son broke my "E" button I keep having to slam it down and even then sometimes it doesn't want to type. So I'm reminiscing about the days when I was young and somewhat skinny and I use to wear cheetah print... oh how I miss those days..lol... I'll get it back until then I'm gonna stick to wearing cheetah print on my nails. I am a big fan of cheetah print it just feels fun and sexy. Zebra print too but that's for another blog.
My favorite thing about cheetah print is you can wear it in so many different ways where classy and sleek or fun and colorful. Or you can put them together best of both worlds.

Color color color I love color. =D The best color polish I use is from sinful colors and pure ice plus they are budget friendly and most of the times on sale. I'll put some swatches up for some sinful colors.

Oh gosh don't pay attention to the booty finger, but I really like this design it's glamorous and easy plus I also like the gold I used Orly Luxe it's the best for sponging but it's a little slow to get off. So question is what is your favorite type of animal print?

I was so excited to get my nail polish in the mail.... unfortunately it wasn't my order I received someone with the same name as me's order.

Today hasn't been a very cheery day I'm sick, I live in Florida you know the state that doesn't have Christmas because it's 80 degrees and it's sunny... I miss my winters I use to live in Bremington Washington about 45 minutes outside of Seattle where we'd get alot of snow, so it's a bit of a warp. So today is  just one of those off days where it's cloudy and rainy and hot all in one. I like it better when it's just down pouring better to read and sleep in. So since it was icky I decided to add a little color to my day... Or alot and since I don't feel good I figured I'd just fake feeling amazing and give myself an amazing mani.

 So I started by putting a base coat on my nails then I painted my nails with one coat white you know just to give myself a canvas and to make the colors *pop* more, I only used one coat because even if it's streaky the color is going to cover it. You want the polish to dry before anything else because you want your colorful polish to stick when you sponge it on. After that I gathered all my bright cheerful colors together and took my eye shadow applicators and started sponging the colors randomly on my nails(and everything around my nails which is okay because you can easily clean it up). You don't have to use an eye shadow applicator you can also use a makeup sponge just rip it in little pieces and take the little piece and sponge on the nail polish using the jagged edge that way when you sponge  on the nail polish it's not sponging on square.

So now is when you want to clean up your cuticles I use a ear cleaner and just dipped it in nail polish remover and cleaned away the extra nail polish. After that I started the fun part and started painting zebra strips on my newly colorful nails.

After my zebra strips I re-cleaned my cuticles , but here's my favorite part you can either leave it like this and put on a glossy finish or you can always add a lil' something more.

Now my cloudy day doesn't seem so grey. So question do you paint your nails to reflect your mood?

I got inspired by  Heather she's having a birthday giveaway and when I was looking at her Pinterest pictures I kept looking at the pink candy/sprinkle rimmed martini glasses and it gave me an idea to do pink with pocka dots on my nails I couldn't help myself. It's a work in progress before I get a design I like but I'll keep working on it. So question what gives you inspiration when your trying out different designs... speaking of which  Kitties26  at More Nail Polish is having a Lynnderella nail polish contest, but you have to work for it and make a nail design and your inspiration for it for I'm working on it because I love Lynnderella's nail polish plus I haven't been able to get my hands on one =( what I would do for one anyways hit up her blog and check it out.

Seriously I love Essie's Luxeffects- 958 set in stones, because a little bit does go a long ways and it also reminds me of a silver Lynnderella Changes. I'm not really big on glitter because it's hard to get off and when I wrap them up in tin foil my son thinks I'm just being crazy so when you have a 1 year old look at you funny you know you look ridiculous, but this is worth it.

For this nail design I used my beauty secrets base coat, then 2 coats of sally hansens hard as nails 370- no hard feelings then, I just wanted it to look like I dipped my nails in sparkles so I just swipped the tips with some Essie and a top coat and that was it. What more can a girl want than nails dripping in sparkles =D.

What's your favorite type of glitter nail polish? Fine glitter? shimmer polish? chunky? Colorful, different shapes? Or do you not want anything to do with it?

This picture doesn't give these polished credit. Ozotic is an Australian nail polish that has become a big thing in the states.  These puppies are apart of the underground nail craze that's been going around along with the Lynnderella polishes which I'm not gonna talk about again till I have those holey polishes on my fingers *sighs*. Any ways I got these beautiful polishes from http://www.shop.llarowe.com this is a small site created by Leah Ann (who is a god send to all polishoholics everywhere in the states), who supplies overseas nail polishes at incredible prices and if you spend more than $50 and you live in the states shipping and handling is free which is great because if you try to get them yourself your looking at paying $30 + bucks on shipping and handling plus the cost of the nail polishes and then there's the risk of it getting lost somewhere out in that big world.  Anyways back to the polish I bough Ozotic 509 which is a holo silver, 516 which is to me a light holo pink and lastly 624 which is a sparkly holo purple. I paid $17.50 for each one but they are sooooo worth it. They look pale at first but when your outside these puppies shine, I'll put up swatches of inside and outside but here's some for inside.

At first I wasn't so sure about the purple sparkle I thought it would be grainy but its just every ounce of perfect. What I love most is what you see is what you get, the color comes out just like it looks in the bottle without a million coats. I just can't wait to get more, I have some of the hits nail polish from Brazil coming next I can't wait! So the question is the holo sparkles or holo prisms?

It's not our fault if we go to the store and we have to pass by the nail polish section on the way to the milk is it? I don't think so, plus it's helping the economy right? Enough with the excuses these cute little babies were only $1.99  at Walgreens  they are by Wet n Wild so they are a penny pincher dream as my friend calls them, so the price melted my heart and hubby wouldn't be mad if I got them.  I also thought the colors were cute they really remind me of a spring that is taking too long to come. What I love about these are the brush, it's a pro brush, a big brush that only really takes 2 strokes and your finished with your first coat simple as that.

Aren't they cute? And the brush is amazing in my opinion. So give them a try. So question what's the craziest brush that you've seen so far and how did it work out?

I'm a newbie when it comes to this underground nail polish phenomenon, but let's just say it's not hard to get hooked. It all started when my mom convinced me to look into becoming a nail tech because I love to draw and paint nails so yea it was kinda like a thing I was destined to do, when I was a kid I use to try to make fake nails out of glue lets just say they didn't work but I thought I was so cool lol can you imagine a 7 year old walking around with that greyish goopy glue that dried glued to their fingers lol auh how I've grown from glue to acrylic/gel. But anyways before I go down memory lane I've decided to start a blog on my journey to uncover the world of nail polish. I will be putting up nail art tuteriols when I get my camera that I have been waiting  for in the mail.... day 8... lol. Also I will be searching for the hottest and newest craze in nail polishes, so I'll keep you in the loop of where to get, how much and I'll even go a step further and search around for the cheapest places to get it (perks of being a stay at home mom).  At the end I'll also have a question and if you have any requests or questions just let me know. So enough about me lets get to the good stuff...The Polish =)

I put up a couple of swatches of the Essie's Luxeffects and I love them. I love shine of the times, granted it is like most of the flakies out there but I find that it's thicker in flakes than the others. I got mine at Walgreens for only $8 and I know they also have them at Walmart for $7.75  but for me Walgreens was closer now if you want to buy it online the cheapest place that I've found has been at Beautydeals.net for $5.85 and they have savings for first time shoppers, I kinda wished I would have know about this site sooner but atleast I know about it now.

Whoever came up with flakies needs to get a hug =) I just love looking at them, this looks amazing over black and different shades of greens and I'm going to try them out on an orange one day. I'm going to have stock up on these. So today's question is what is your favorite flakies polish?
