Glitter Me Up Friday- A real stunner ;)



Hi :)

Here's another GMU Friday post. Today I'm showcasing the stunning Diamond Glitter Aquamarine.

 I found it at Kmart last weekend, and have been waiting for GMU Friday to come around to post about it. Kmart has recently redone their Nail Polish displays, so get in a check them out. BYS used to be hidden in a corner, under a lot of stuff. I think I'm the only one who even knew it was there to be quiet honest. Anyway, I checked in my 'secret' spot last weekend, and all that was left were dingy old split colours. I then went to buy some pyjamas, and on my way there, I saw it. A beautiful array of colours, from MATTE, to GLAM.

 I absolutely love this colour.. It's a jelly blue base that is quiet sheer, so you can layer it, and its full of tiny little silver circular glitter, and some slightly bigger, silver hexes. It was beautifully covered in 3 coats and it looks amazing. Have a look at the photos below, and be amazed at the absolute gorgeousness of this colour.

I used Ulta 3 base coat (clear) and I used no top coat. Look at this glittery goodness close up;


How pretty, right? I loooooove this colour. It kinda reminds me of a swimming pool. A very glittery swimming pool. This is DEFINITELY my new favourite Nail Polish.

Do you like it as much as I do?

Glitter Me Up Friday (a day late I know) & Some other cool stuff.



Hi Everyone :)


It's been a while since I posted last. I've really had a lot of stuff to do. But even though my nails are still short, I couldn't resist showing off some glitter this Friday. I promise to post more this week, my school is going on camp, and I've decided to sit it out. So some free time! Yay!!

Ok, so on with GMU. I couldn't help not posting this week.

I used N.Y.C. Banana Split for the base coat (yellow). It's a creme that is really hard to work with, I wouldn't recommend it. The glitter I used was Leana Cosmetics, Color 48 (Muli Colored Glitter as described on bottle.)

I also took a macro of my nails, and the actual bottle of glitter.

I think it looks prettier on my nails than in the bottle, even though the yellow was a pain.

Glitter Me Up Friday



Hello :)

This is the first Glitter Me Up Friday post, so I decided to keep it simple. I just did a Leana Cosmetics glitter as the base coat, it has no name. And I used Kiss Nail Art Polish for the lines. I couldn't help myself doing a design. I dont really have much to say about this mani, so just look below for photos. I did pink glitter ombre nails on Monday, but I didn't take any photos and I used all the glitter so I couldn't do them again.

Glitter Me Up Friday

Most of my nails broke *tear tear*

It was a pretty simple mani, in the end I couldn't even come up with an idea.

P.S. Girls, you can do designs on your nails with glitter too. I forgot to mention that :)

Glitter Me Up Friday (:



Hello!

I noticed a few little blogs have some days where they do something special, I know of 'Artsy Wednesday' which I found on Pretty Purple Polish (http://www.prettypurplepolish.com/) so I decided to make up my own day. Here's how it came about...

I was thinking of things that I have a lot of and really like and I came up with GLITTER. I asked my mum what day suits glitter and she said Friday. I guess that came from where we live, Friday is kinda a party night here, where a lot of people wear glitter and get really dressed up. So from now on, I will be posting glitter nails on Fridays! If you want to join it comment on this post, use the pic on this post and link to all the blogs you know of that are doing it (including me) Easy!! (: You'll be able to find the links of the blogs also joining in, in my next post.






xoxo,
Shaina (:
