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.

Cos Bar at Target nail polish swatch and review
Hello all! I have recently picked up a few polishes at target, today I will be showing you one from Cos Bar at Target. This is Bronze, according to vampy varnish, but I think she made up those names, so I will just tell you the number on the bottom of the bottle 206701. This is a bronze with red, yellow and orange reflective particles that make it appear lit from within, like a flame going down the middle. This polish appears beautiful in all lights! There are many things that I do not like, here is a list-
- Small bottle, .33 oz.
- Tricky bottle cap, short and square
- Wonky brush
- Awful formula, it is runny and drags.
- No names
- Unique colors
- Easy access
- Quite inexpensive

An Announcement and my NOTD
Hello! Happy Monday (not) I hope all is going well and that today will go smoothly for all of you! I am having a hard time reaching 20 followers but am quickly approaching 500 pageviews, so the giveaway will be held at whichever comes first. I have decided what I am giving away, so stay tuned!
Today's manicure is a smoky teal shimmer from the color craze collection from Wet n Wild. I found a set with five color craze nail polishes in it at Dollar General! This is Morbid from the collection, a beautiful smoked out teal shimmer. Under low light it looks like black with shimmer, but in sunlight it is so pretty! Here are the pictures. Please excuse the horrid shirnkage from Seche Vite, I am getting a new topcoat soon.

NOTD Neon!!
Good afternoon my friends, today I have for you a bright pink neon from the China Glaze Summer Neons collection in the color Surfin For Boys, just so you know, I am head over heels for the color and the name. I picked this up at Sally's with I'm with the Lifeguard, a neon chartreuce with shimmer. I have a feeling already that neons and pastels will be very trendy this summer because of all of the nail polish companies putting so many out! Now all I am waiting on is another collection like Holiday on Broadway by OPI, those are the kind of collections that are popular with almost everyone. On my toesies right now is another neon green, Sinful Colors Innocent with a bit of nail art, nothing special. I have had so much fun on my mission trip with my church and did a lot of good. Soon will be many tutorials of interesting nail art and methods to make up for my hiatus. But now for today I will just be showing you my manicure. This polish is impossible to photograph!! But I believe that all neons are. This is a neon pink with slight shimmer that just appears to make the polish glow, and gives a blue hue. It took about 2 and a half coats for full opacity and I just love it!!

Hello All! This last week I have been bombarded with school work!! But good news, I have a gorg polish for you today! Today's manicure is China Glaze Bogie, from the Vintage Vixen collection, winter 2010 or 2011.... For the past few days I have been rocking broken nails, nasty cuticles and a sheer pink, I am a real rockstar. But Bogie is a nice change. It is a shimmer, duo chrome maybe? In some lights it looks green, in some lights it looks purple and gray, a real shifter! Sorry for the messy cuticles, school hase been wrecking havoc on them!
