A little glitz and glamour. So today I decided to post my nail color of the week with black nail polish that has been put a matt coat (Essie) and a single finger covered in lots of glitter.

Simple and elegant in time for the holiday parties.

Today’s Mani Monday actually got done today! I decided that I wanted a green color for my nails, but not that kelly green which is beyond bright and clashes with other colors. So I found this perfect shade of green that is a bit dark but with a little sparkle. On top of the color I added my favorite Matte About You by Essie.

Until next time,

Here’s this week’s Manicure Monday!

I used District 2 Hunger Games China Glaze Limited Edition with the new Essie Chrome Collection: No Place Like Chrome.

I created the stripes with the use of good old Scotch tape cut into thin strips.

I think I took me about 20 minutes total with dry time to create this look. 

Until next time,

Mani Monday!!

Here’s my first installment of Mani Monday (manicure)! If you happen to follow me on instagram, you will notice that I take a lot of pictures of my nails. I am proud owner of over 60 nail polishes. I’m what you call a nail polish hoarder, but enough of that, let’s get on with this posting. Today I decided that I would go for a neutral color and just add a little sparkle. (Updated: I changed it to nice mint color, I couldn’t resist using a new nail polish I had forgotten I bought early last week.)

For the Neutral color I used a taupe looking color which Revlon calls “Gray Suede”, it has no gray tint to the color, go figure. I also used a clear base coat, which also can be used as a clear top coat which I used. I also used a white nail color by Wet and Wild, over the base coat and before the neutral color to enhance the very bland color. Lastly, I added a little shimmer to the tips by adding silver glitter nail polish by Sinful Nail Polish. 

FTR:I bought all these products myself.

Have a happy Monday, unless you have a case of the Mondays, then I can’t really help you there. I take my last 2 finals of the semester tomorrow and an interview on Thursday morning! Exciting times!
