Lynnderella Happy Holo Daze and OPI Gift of Gold.

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays!!! I hope you all have a wonderful day day.....whether you celebrate Christmas or not. :-)

This is going to be another short one, but I wanted to get my Christmas mani. posted before the day is over. I used OPI Gift of Gold as my base. It's from last year's Ulta holiday exclusives. Gift of Gold is made up of mostly gold glitter. It also has some red and silver glitter throughout. Application was absolutely wonderful for a glitter. Seriously. It was a one coat glitter! That doesn't happen very often.

I put two coats of Lynnderella Happy Holo Daze on top. Happy Holo Daze in one word, is awesome!!! It's like a bottled Christmas party! :-) It has different sizes of red, and green square glitter, and round glitter. It also has red and green bar glitter, and silver holo hex glitter.

Thanks so much for reading!!! I hope you all have an absolutely wonderful day no matter what you do! :-)

Christmas themed mani. using Lynderella's and Wet 'n Wild.

Good afternoon! How is your day going? It's cold and dreary here, but DH and I have plans to got out tonight. I'm hoping the bad weather will hold off for a few hours. We are going to the Kansas City Country Club Plaza to see the Christmas lights, and eat at the Melting Pot. It's a fondue restaurant, so lots of yummy cheese and chocolate dips. This will be my first time there, and I'm excited! :-) I've wanted to eat there forever!

Anyway, I decided to do Christmas nails today. I started out with Wet 'n Wild Rockin' Rubies, which is part of the Ice Baby Holiday collection. It has fine red glitter with round, hex glitter. The polish was a bit on the thick side, but nothing too bad. I used three coats for full coverage. I had planned on just wearing this color, but then I started messing around with my Lynnderella polishes. I added a coat of Lynnderella I Can Afford It, which is made of of bright green glitter in different shapes and sizes. It also has a few gold and purple glitter pieces through out. I added a bit too much green, and decided it needed more red. So I grabbed another Lynnderella....Ruby Red Ruby. RRR is made up of all red glitter in different shapes and sizes. I am loving this combo, but dreading taking it off! I have on NINE coats of polish! That's including my treatment,base and topcoats.

Here are pics. of the finished mani.

Thanks so much for looking, and I hope you are having a great day! :-)

Pumpkin Mani. and more news on my dog.

Good evening! I finally got a call from my vet today. She was able to talk to the specialist, and got the okay to start reducing the Prednisone, which is great news. We're only going down to 15mg a day from 20mg but it's a start. Now, we just have to hope his blood levels stay up without the Pred. Also, they want me to bring him in for an ultrasound of his stomach tomorrow. They want to make sure the shaking/twitching is def. from the Pred. both our regular vet, and the specialist do think it's the Pred. but want to make certain of it. He did have x rays on Fri. that were clear. I'm of course quite nervous about the test, but hoping for the best. Our appointment is at 10:30 tomorrow morning, so if you could sent good thoughts,prayers etc..that everything turns out clear and good I'd really appreciate it....again. ;-)

I have another theme mani. to show you. Today, the theme was pumpkins. I started out using Kleancolor Metallic Orange. This is a gorgeous color! It practically glows. Application was wonderful, and I could have gotten away with one coat. I did two, but really didn't need to. I then added one coat of Love and Beauty Green Glitter. For the final part, I added some pumpkin sticker that I picked up from a local beauty store. I wasn't sure how this would turn out, but I really like it. :-)

Thanks so much for looking! :-) Hopefully, I will have a good update on Buster tomorrow. Have a great night!

Fallen Leaves Mani.

Good evening! How has your Monday been? Mine's been quite good. Still no word from the vet though. Hopefully, we will have more news tomorrow. I belong to a couple of online nail forums, and one of them has themes from time to time. Today's theme was fallen leaves, and I decided to take part in it.

I started out using China Glaze Below Deck, which is from this year's summer collection. Below Deck is a taupe color with a creme finish. I then used several different colored glitters. I used a burnt orange glitter, by a brand I picked up at Marshall's called Color Zone. The green glitter is by Love & Beauty which you can find at Forever 21. It's just called green. How original, huh? :-D It's an exact dupe to LA Girl's Purge from the Glitter Addict collection. It has small green glitter, and medium sized round green glitter. I used Wet 'n Wild Prancer from last year's holiday collection. It's med. sized red glitter in a clear base. The gold glitter pieces are NYX Girls Gilded Glitter. Of course, I had to see what it looked like matte, so I used Essie Matte About You.

First up, are the pics. before I used the Matte top coat.

Watermelon by The Hungry Asian

Good afternoon! How's your day going? Mine's going slow! I'm so thrown off the days, because of the holiday this week. I almost forgot that it's pink Wed. ;-) I decided to wear a polish that I got from The Hungry Asian awhile back. It's called Watermelon, and it's a bright pink color with green glitter. I love it! It applied wonderfully, and I used two coats.

I tried REALLY hard, but I just could not get the glitter to show green in my pics. very well. I took so many pics. but it looks like black glitter. You'll just have to trust me, that's it's green. ;-) That, and you can see in the bottle how green it is.









Thanks for looking, and I hope your day is going well! :-)
