Birthday CupCake Nail Art!

Hi everyone! Today is my 14th birthday! I am pre writing this right now because I when this goes live I will probably be doing something awesome! For my birthday I did two different manis. This one and then other that is more of a swatch like that you will be seeing tomorrow! But for today I did birthday cupcake nails! I used Nails Inc Sweets Way and Pudding Lane! Before we get into the nail art lets start with the base polishes themselves. Pudding Lane required 2 coats and with both polishes you have to be patience and wait for both of them to dry fully before adding another coat. You dont want clumps of sparkles everywhere! Sweets Way required 3 coats. Glitter coverage was good and I didn't have to dab. 

All products used were bought with my own money!

For the nail art I used acrylic paint and for the design I used a base coat and a topcoat to make sure it would last for a few days. So that is all I have for you today! Thanks for reading and see you tomorrow! :D -Zoe

Layla Flash Black Swatch

Hello! Good evening! I am so glad it is Friday, not that it really matters because I am on summer vacation, but Friday is always a good day! What do you have planned for your weekend? Tomorrow is my 14th birthday (YAY!) so I will be busy with that! I will have a blog post for you showing you my birthday nails version 1! But today I have a holo swatch for you! Out of my entire collection I only have 2 holos so I really like this polish, Layla's Flash Black!

This isn't a picture that I took in direct light, but I think it shows off the shaded side of the holo really well! If you think this is cool the direct light version is even better! For this swatch I did not use a base coat or topcoat. With most holos they say to use a ridge filling base coat to get rid of ridges in nails because holos like to show those off, but I did not have a problem with that! I did not buff my nails either before this swatch. For this polish to become opaque I used 3 coats and like most holos they can drag and become patchy! That is all I have for today, do you have any Layla holos? How do you like them? Thanks for reading and talk to you tomorrow! -Zoe :D

Rimmel Hard Edged

Welcome my readers to another blog post! Today is another post of a polish that I forgot to post before!  Rimmel Hard Edged is a brown polish with purple undertones. It took 2-3 coats with no base coat or top coat added. There isn't much to say about this polish, I do like it, but it isnt "my" color. 

Thank you for reading and enjoy the rest of your night! -Zoe

Sinful Colors Cloud 9

Hi! So you may remember that I said I was done with swatching my Sinful Color's collection. Well, I am but I forgot to post this so here this is! This polish is Sinful Color's Cloud 9. I really dislike the color. The formula is okay. I can not remember the exact amounts of coats this polish took to become opaque. I would say that Cloud 9 is a retro orange with a slight shimmer to it. For this swatch I do not have a base coat or top coat on. What do you think about it? Would you wear this orange? Thank you for reading and I will be back tomorrow for another forgotten nail polish swatch! -Zoe

I bought this polish with my own money.

Zoya Blaze and Storm Swatches

Hello! Today is my mom's birthday so I am busy with that, but I wanted to post these swatches of two more Zoya's from the Ornate collection, Blaze and Storm. Blaze is a dark red holo with pink tones to it and Storm is a black holo. Both only took two coats and had great application! It also turns out that they have a great holo as well! :D For the swatches I did not use a base or top coat and the photos were taken in direct natural light!

Polishes were bought with my own money!

Thank you for reading and I will see you tomorrow with some odds and ends posts that I forgot to publish awhile ago! Lol Bye! -Zoe

Zoya Beatrix Swatch

Hello hello my readers! Sorry for no post yesterday! If you follow me on Twitter you know that I did a 5k yesterday and then ran 2.5 miles later in the day so I was quite tired and didn't have any pre wrote posts to publish for you! But I should have posts for you everyday for quite awhile! Today I have a swatch for you of Zoya's Beatrix PixieDust polish for you! This is my first texture polish for you and I really love it! I can't wait to get the purple PixieDust from their fall collection! Purple is one of my favorite colors! (Besides blue and green!) 

(I purchased this polish with my own money!)

I think my photo shows off the texture and color pretty well! Beatrix took 2 coats with good application and it had an overall good texture! For this photo I used natural light with no base or top coat! So do you have any texture polishes? How do you like them? Also please follow me on Twitter and Instagram for more updates!
