OPI Ate Berries in the Canaries & Polka.com

It's been some time since I've worn a manicure that is really simple. No nail art, no nada. I really need to practice on doing nail art, but my designs don't really come out that well so I just stop. Also, I've been uninspired wish someone could do my nails for once lol.

On a good note I have been noticing that my bottle pictures are getting better, at least I think so. My fingers don't look as awkward as they used to :)

Polka. com is a glitter polish with pink, light blue, and periwinkle colored glitter with even finer tinier loose periwinkle glitter.

Ate Berries in the canaries is creme polish that is a dark-ish fuschia color. It was very smooth and easy to apply.



 Here is 1 coat of Polka.com over 2 coats of Ate Berries in the Canaries + top coat.


I really liked the end results of the combination of the two polishes, it is like they were meant for each other!!

It was kind of hard to show the true color of the polish. It seems more pink here than it is in person.
 
 
I decided to add a matte finish my to nails to try to show the true color and it came out better!


This picture is just to show you how the nails on my right hand look. My nails are super short because I am right-handed and I use it more than my left hand. There really is a tremendous difference between my nails on both hands. I am working on getting them to where I want them to be.


Thanks for reading!

Polish Addict Nail Color Cupcakes & Sprinkles Review

Hope everyone is having a lovely day and if you aren't, really try to bring yourself to think positive happy thoughts. One of my most respected teachers always said, "you are responsible for whatever you are feeling, you yourself make are the only one who makes yourself upset", I took it as, "you are a dictator of your life, try to make yourself happy". I know trying to make yourself think positives sometimes is very hard(trust me I have to work on this), but there is not enough time in our lives to be upset. Enjoy your family, the person next to you, smile at whoever you are with, there is not enough time to spend in the world with the person you love.

Lol, I got ooeeey goooeyy on you! Let's talk about what you actually came on my blog for....

This is the bottle of Laura's @polishaddictnailcolor polish called Cup cakes & sprinkles. The polish  is a light pinkish/purpleish jelly, jampacked with different kinds of glitter!!!! Glitter is a pain to take off, but it is so beautiful!


I decided to layer two coats of this polish over a similar, but darker base+ topcoat on my pointer finger to show how it looks like if used as a glitter topper.


To the rest of my nails I applied 4 thin coats+ top coat. I could have gone with a 5th coat on my middle finger because you can still see parts of my nail. But I still like how it looks, It  is very feminine, fun, and light. There was no need for fishing for the glitters and glitters do not feel rough. One of the big pink circular glitters was curling, but the top coat solved that problem.


I think I will be using it as a glitter topper from now on because I got a mini size and I don't want it to be gone fast :(



Thank you Laura for my polish and speedy shipping!!

Thank you for reading & remember to smile :D

Til Next time!

Pink and Studs

Hey nails gals and nail studs ;) I'm not really consistent on writing this blog, but I do what I can. This mani I had seen on IG a looooong time ago and I finally came around to actually doing it. I used pink for the base, I forgot the name of it :(. I also used some black studs from ebay and top coat. I was an easy peasy lemon squeasy kind of mani, just that I had to concentrate on making the lines with the studs close to the middle as I could possibly do it.








Thank you for reading/viewing.
