Milani 2014 Gold Label Nail Lacquers: Glitters!

Milani Cosmetics has twelve new polishes out for Spring 2013, creams and glitters.  Since I work at CVS, I got first dibs and grabbed all the new glitter polishes.  These polishes are unlike any I have and I really liked the way they applied and wore.

Liquid Glam Lacquer - Fancy Huh?

Liquid Glam Lacquer Fancy Huh? is a multitude of hot pink, purple and black glitters in a milky pink base.  It kind of reminds me of cupcakes, or frosting.  Or maybe cupcakes with frosting.

Zoya - Payton

Oh man, Zoya has done it again!  Payton is a beautiful deep purple-y red (it is described on the website as "galactic cranberry" and I have to say that's quiet accurate) with tiny holographic glitters.

Euphoric Lacquer - Senter of the Universe

 Here I have my very first Euphoric Lacquer nail polish!  It's called Senter of the Universe, which was named after @senteroftheuniverse_nails on Instagram.  (If you don't follow Blair, you really should -- she has awesome nail art and great swatches.)

Trick-or-Treat!

Let me start by saying that I love this polish!  It's another beauty from Liquid Sky Lacquer called Trick or Treat.  I think this is definitely what the inside of a candy bag looks like.

As you can see, it's a glitter bomb!  Just look at it in its glittery glory...

Liquid Sky Lacquer: Witching Hour

I've been so busy with school that I kept putting off posting all of my lovely Halloween polishes from Liquid Sky Lacquer!  But I don't mind extending Halloween into November a bit, since it is my favorite!

Here is Witching Hour!

A polish appropriate for this month!

I recently ordered six polishes from Liquid Glam Lacquer and the first one I wanted to post about is called October (which is one of my very favorite months of the year).

Cosmically... awesome!

Today I'm posting about another Emily de Molly polish that I'm sure everyone and their mother has heard of: Cosmic Forces!

Sephora Will You Jump?/Fuzzy Coat

I was recently at Sephora and saw a blue-toned purple that I couldn't resist.  I definitely don't own a color like Will You Jump?  It is part of the Color Hit Nail Polish collection at Sephora.

Lush Lacquer - Dream On

It is no surprise that I LOVE Lush Lacquer polishes.  I used them almost every time I do my nails because they're unique, sparkly and awesome.

June Nail Art Challenge - June 4th - Flowers


Yesterday's nail art was to be flowers.  I kept it sweet and simple with daisies since they are my favorite.

The base is two coats of Lush Lacquer Dream On.

June Nail Art Challenge - June 1st - Summer Nails


I think that doing this particular nail art challenge will be fun, since it's not an every day kind of thing.  The nail art for the First of June was Summer Nails.  I decided to use some vibrant colors to do something simple.

Here it is in direct sunlight.  The purple is China Glaze Purple Panic.  The yellow is China Glaze Celtic Sun.  The green with the glitters on my pinky is Lush Lacquer Green Genie.

Leopard Print Gradient.

I painted these on Monday night, and today five of them are completely chipped off.  I guess that's what I get for doing something ~fancy~ and then working on delivery day.  I just wish I had gotten a better picture, perhaps with my actual camera and not just a quick one on my phone.  I hadn't even taken the excess polish off of my fingers yet, how embarrassing.  Oh well, it's still pretty neat-o!


It's a lime green/fluorescent yellow and light, turquoise-y blue gradient.  I used a pink Icing brand polish for the spots, then an Art Deco sparkly purple for the lines around the spots.  It looks much better in real life.

Matte and Shiny




I used Zoya Savita, which is a beautiful, purple matte polish.  Then I just did top coat only over the tips.

Zebra and Purple

 I guess we'll start off with this one.  It's from early last year, I'm thinking January.  I used white, black, silver, some Delia's polish (I can't remember the name for the life of me, but as you can see, it's purple) and Essie Luxeffects Shine of the Times.
I painted my whole nail white, then added the purple, black stripes, Shine of the Times, then a silver line for a clean separation of colors.  I think this was the first time I ever tried to do zebra print!
