Hello! Sorry that I have been MIA for the past few weeks I have had a lot going on! But I am here to make it up with a new braided nail trend!
This design I saw on Cutepolish's YouTube channel and it looked hard, but turned out to be an extremely simple design! You simply make overlapping alternating diagonal lines and you are left with a trendy very complicated looking design! This design looks best with a cream, shimmer and foil, that way there is more contrast. I used Rimmel Violet Metal, LA Colors foil no name and Wet n Wild I need a refresh-mint.

Matching Mani and Pedi
Hello all!! Today I have a leopard print matching mani and pedi! This was done free hand because at the moment I didn't have the patience to do konad *iz lazy* so I used a dotting tool and toothpick!
For the manicure I used China Glaze It's My Turn from the kaleidoscope collection, a wonderful holographic tan. On the accent fingers, I used Wet n Wild Tropicalia from the new megalast line, an awesome line in my opinion, and the leopard spots were black and China Glaze, It's my Turn.
On my toes I used Revlon Tulip, and Zoya Mitzi, from the Mod Mattes Collection. Same method, paint base color, dot in contrasting color, surround partially with black, and voila, instant rawr. I love this combination, and can't wait to do it with other colors!! All photos are color accurate, except Tropicalia is a bit more orange in real life.

It's sunny, what does that mean? Duochrome!
Hello fellow friends, what a lovely polish I have for you today. This is a duo/multi chrome polish that 'blinded' my soccer team, haha. Just Spotted The Lizard is the alias that this polish goes by, a beautiful one that changes from green to gold to yellow, almost a dupe a Chanel Peridot, close enough for me not to lem that anymore! This polish was released under the collection Spiderman which by the way was an amazing collection! Anyway, onto the pictures!

My Favorite Polish Ever!
This polish I picked up at claire's for five dollars!! It was love at first sight, from it's curvacious bottle, to it's multi-faceted personalities, to it's humility, I must have it. This pretty flashes every color in the rainbow, with a green jelly base with predominatly purple flashes with a few pink, yellow and orange every now and then. I think that Claire's Venomous has three duplicates that I know of, Orly Space Cadet, Hard Candy beetle, and MAC bad fairy, *I think* But it's formula has something lacking, three coats later, and I still have slight VNL, it was quite watery actually, and pooled into my cutes, so cleanup was required. I just have to tell you that this polish is amazing, and if you can't find it, HC beetle and Orly SC are fairly easy to find, and just as good.
You may have not noticed, but I changed the design a little, please let me know how you feel about, because I think it is quite girly, maybe a little bit too girly :/ I know that I have far too many pictures, but this baby deserves centerfold!

New title! And a post!
Hello all! Today I am feeling quite silly :P (see!) And my manicure is likewise! This is two coats of Barrielle nail rebuilding protien and three coats of Nina Ultra Pro "Leaf me alone" a squishy green jelly, and then one "coat" of Lush Lacquer Slime Time, which I adore! The reason why I put coat in quotations is because it is not applied like a regular polish, you have to push it around so the squares don't all clump up.
The nina can be purchased at sally's for around four dollars, I talked about it here. It is one of the amazing jellies that is forgotten :( And the Lush Lacquer Slime Time is an indie polish that you can purchase off of etsy here.
This mani wore like iron for almost four days! WOW!

Happy Floam!
Today's manicure I loved but it lasted about 3 hours :P
I started off with a new shape, pointy! I was inspired by the new trend especially on Lady GaGa (even though I don't like her) but mine were far too short to make them almond :( So I settled on pointy and short!
I have had issues with Seche Vite shrinking on me because I am waiting too long to apply it so I applied the polish then a slow-dry topcoat from rimmell then seche vite. It seemed to work pretty well until about 1 hour later. I noticed that the polish had completely slid off! Nothing left on my nail at all! All the other ones were still dentable about 3 hours later, so it came off immediately! I did love the color combo, though. The base was three coats of Revlon Passion Fruit (it smells amazing!) with one coat of Nail-venturous floam. Floam has flat, not reflective glitter yellow and green shades, I was lucky enough to be able to get my hands on this from Ninjapolish! Onto the pictures!

MOTD Borghese Fantastico Lime and Sally Hansen In the Spotlight!
Hello All! Today is an awfulllyyy bubbly polish, a devil spawn, looks gorgeous from far away, but when up close, reveals it's evil alter ego :) Sorry, I felt like being dramatic there! Anyway, this polish I got a long time ago, it is from the Fantastioso collection and bubbles like heck! To attempt to hide the bubbles I put Sally Hansen Xtreme wear in, In the Spotlight on top, it didn't do much, but it covered a few. I know what controversy bar glitter, aka hair brings up, I personally love it, how do you feel about it? I tried photoshopping out the bubbles, but it was to no avail! Thanks for tuning in today!
Oh! And as you can see, I have added a discreet watermark, do you like it?
