Sweet Tooth for Pink Wed. plus glitter,flakies and a matte.

I did a pink mani. today for pink Wed. I started out using another polish I got from jaybird, called Sweet Tooth. I love this polish. I only got the small size, but I love it so much, I think I'm going to have to order a big one. :-) Sweet Tooth is a bright pink creme with red glitter, and small orange flakies. It's a really unique polish. Application was wonderful, and I used two coats. I could have def. gotten away with one though. I unfortunately, messed this gorgeous polish up with my top coat. The tc was thick and caused bubbles. I didn't want to start over though, so I ended up layering it again. I added some more red glitter using CND Sparkle, which is red glitter in a clear base. I then added a layer of Maybelline Colorama Shimmer Girl on top. I didn't stop there. I love how flakies look with matte, so I added Essie's Matte About You on top. I am def. going to have to do another mani. with just Sweet Tooth, so that I can show you better pics. of it alone. It is seriously my new fav. pink. :-)

First up pics. of the finished product.







Close Up's.





Here is Sweet Tooth on it's own. I SO wish I could have gotten better pics. of this. These don't do it justice. I promise, it really is a standout. :-) I'll have better pics. to show you soon.





And here is a pic. of the bottle. This pic. gives you a better idea of what it really looks like on the nails.



Well, I'm once again about to drop so I'm off to bed. I hope you have all had a great night. Only one more day until Fri! ;-)

CND Red Hot Duo for Valentine's Day

When I first saw this set on TD I had to get it. You all know how I am with reds and glitter. This is right up my alley. The set contains two polishes. Just Red an Red Sparkle. Just Red is an amazing jelly red, and application was wonderful. Absolutely flawless! Could have been a one coater if you don't mind VNL but I do, so I used two. I will def. use this red a lot.

The effect polish is called Red Sparkle. It's in a clear base with very fine red glitter. I personally LOVE it, but then again I'm a red freak! LOL!

When used together, Just Red and Red Sparkle, make one awesome pretty red jelly glitter.

Here is a pic. of the set...

Do you have any big plans for the weekend? We are supposed to get snow again! Well, I think I'm off for a little nap with the dogs. I'm exhausted for some reason. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend, whatever you end up doing. :-)
