Devil Stamping with Bundle Monster.

Stamping with Sinful Colors, Black On Black.

Bundle Monster plate BM-305

Base Colors:
 China Glaze, Glitter Goblin
 China Glaze, Roguish Red




This is my Little Devil Mani - Inspired by my Shih tzu mix, Penny.

Penny's 1st costume was a Devil costume (You can see it HERE) because as a puppy I gave her the nickname 'Little Devil' or 'Devil Puppy'. She loved to get into mischief and make messes. Even to this day she will occasionally get into something she shouldn't. She's a free spirit and lives in the moment. Nikki, my other little dog, loves to tattle on her too.

This stamping was a challenge for me. I messed up a few times before I ended up with this... and even this one is not great. Again, I made the mistake of not having a black stamping polish. But, fear not, I ordered some from eBay today after this workout. The devil's tail on my pinkie was the easier part. I struggled with the little guy on my middle nail. The hardest part was my thumb; Every time I filled the image on the plate with polish and then scrapped it, it was very uneven. I kept filling it back up with polish and scraping over and over until I had an evenly filled image and then placing it on my nail was another hard part. 3X I had to wipe it quickly with some Zoya Remove + and start over. I'm surprised I didn't ruin my base polish; Guess I got lucky. I used Black On Black to fill in areas and to wrap the tip of my thumb nail; it's pretty obvious.

Penny also occasionally helps me pick polishes when I can't make up my mind. You can see her in action on our YouTube Channel HERE. I've also added a new tab to my blog featuring our YouTube Channel.

    This is great~ I love that you matched your nails to your puppeh!

    Great job on stamping, I have more trouble with it. I think you did really well to accomplish this mani.

    And Penny is beyond cute in her costume! You are inspiring me to dress up my lil Roro! (that is what I call my dog Rosie)

    I hope Penny wins! Good Luck to you both Kelly!

Salon Perfect, Kaboom and Shocked.

I've got two of the new Neon Collision polishes from Salon Perfect. Kaboom. 3 coats. Shocked. 3 coats. On a trip to my local Walmart I got super lucky and found an enormous cardboard display the size of a SmartCar full of these Salon Perfect polishes. Because it is so rare to find a full collection/display at my particular Walmart, I went ahead and bought all 6. For me that's really not that crazy because I love matte glitter. Plus, the price point is excellent; $3.99 ea. However, I did post a picture as I was standing in the checkout line stating I needed an intervention. Soon after that I put myself on a No-Buy. No polish purchases until July 12th. Then, I will reward myself... Hee Hee Hee. The formula on these is tricky. Let's start with Kaboom; an awesome mix of blue and lime green matte glitters. This resembles a popular indie we all know and love called 'Floam' . It's probably the Holy Grail of polish. I don't own it but I own some of the o...

China Glaze, Red Satin.

China Glaze, Red Satin. 3 coats.  Sunlight.  I've been a little obsessed with red polish lately. It all started when I was looking for a good red polish and I realized that a good chunk of my red collection was not cruelty free. So, I began my hunt to find cruelty free replacements. Luckily, we have a huge surplus of great reds in current collections. Red Satin is one of the reds I decided to add to my collection. It came from China Glaze's Holiday 2012 Collection with quite a few other great reds. This one is a bit different because it is a jelly finish. It gives a nice squishy appearance on the nail yet builds up to opacity nicely in 3 coats. I highly recommend letting each coat dry thoroughly before adding the next. The formula is a little on the thin side and you need to be careful in application to avoid pooling at the cuticle. Dry time did take significantly longer due to the need for 3 coats, but I kind of feel it was worth it. Red Satin looks quite similar to...

Review: Cover FX BB Gel, Mattifying Anti-Blemish Treatment.

Image
It's always been a battle for me to find a good foundation. Between adult acne, acne scars, redness, enlarged pores, under eye circles, deep lines, and an Oily T-Zone... I'm screwed. Ha! Ha! Sorry, you just gotta laugh. I mean, if I ever find anyone with more going on I would have no choice but to cry for them. I also have the annoying issue of my skin sometimes deciding to change its mind during season changes. I can go 6 months with incredibly oily skin and then wake up one morning with my skin so tight and dry it feels like it's about to tear. I sometimes battle dry patches on my chin and by my lips. Which makes no since because I always wear lip balm, moisturizer, and my T-Zone is often so oily you can oil up a hinge with the oil on my face by 3pm.  I've been hearing raving reviews all over the blogosphere about Cover FX products so when I heard they were coming out with this new BB Gel I instantly knew I would be ordering it.  Now, this product is not cheap at $4...
