Who’s ready for Winter to be over? Or at least ready for some Spring-time colors? I am! I was totally giddy and inspired when I saw the soft sweet delicate romantic shades from Orly 2012 Spring collection called Cool Romance. This was a mini set I picked up at ISSE! I couldn’t even take the [...]
I’m really kind of at a loss for words considering the experience I had the day I met Suzi. Never in a million years did I think my blog would even have followers, let alone get the opportunity to meet the OPI nail Goddess Suzi Weiss-Fischmann who is the Executive Vice President and Artist Director [...]
I hope some of you find this tutorial simple and want to try it out for yourself. It probably only took me about ten minutes to do both of my hands (after my base color had already dried.) The theme is Christmas and there will be a snowman and strings of holiday lights. Let me [...]

This post was intentionally for showing you Dr.’s Remedy Tranquil Tangerine shimmer – ooh la la This is two coats of Tangerine. Dry time and application were smooth. I enjoy the formula on these. I couldn’t help but want to do more with it though… So I pulled out my trusty Konad M57 plate and [...]
The last polish from the OPI Nice Stems collection is… Come to Poppy From the very first coat I was blown away with the formula and the opacity. Incredible. I mean, holy super bright quasi fluorescent peachy pink pearly polish Batman. Technically you could probably use just a single coat of this. But it felt [...]
I wasn’t sure how else to name this post? I hadn’t even remotely gotten close to nail art for a little while here, so I at felt compelled to do a little something. So I pulled out five pink creme polishes and decided to wear them in order of dark to light. It is half [...]
I’m sorry I have nothing excited or lengthy to write about today. I’ve just wrapped up my final essays for this semester at school for Epidemiology & Bio-statistics and Psychology. Phew. However I really didn’t want to go blog-less so I will show you what I have managed to do for myself (because we must [...]
I’ve been doing some deep thinking followed up by experimenting with my three OPI blue shatter polishes. What do you think of the following combos? Note: you can click on the manicure photos to enlarge them First up Turquoise shatter. It has a pearl finish to it which is pretty. I wanted to do a [...]
One more Pirates OPI polish for you today Loving these clever names… This is three coats of Skull & Glossbones with a coat of Seche Vite. It layered great and I will say it again I am freaking in love with OPI brushes. It feels like they were specifically designed just for my nails. Surely [...]
OMG I LOVE THIS COLOR I normally am not a “pink” kind of girl. I’ve bought them, and used them and usually remove the color immediately. This one I salivated over after I applied it. I kept staring at it. The dusty rose hue was haunting me, and as I would glance again at the [...]
Here is round two of Serena’s OPI Glam Slam duos. I cannot decide which one I am in love with more… Spark de Triomphe & White Shatter Spark de Trimophe applies like a clear coat packed with small and larger sized silver glitter. I used it over another color so I didn’t have to apply [...]
