Fast Track by China Glaze

This is a nice neutral / beige color that has a tiny gold shimmer and is perfect for work. It is called "Fast Track" by China Glaze and was applied using 2 coats. I then applied a single coat of "Fast Dry Top Coat" by Seche Vite.

It's probably a little too plain jane for my taste but, I'm sure a lot of you ladies will love it!

Freeze by Sally Hansen

This is a frosty metallic blue color by Sally Hansen called "Freeze". It was easily applied in 2 coats. I then decided to make it interesting by adding "Liquid Crystal" by China Glaze onto the ring fingers. I then topped them off with Seche Vite's Fast Dry Top Coat.

All Hail The Queen!

This polish is beige in color, has a beautiful shimmer and, pinkish purple tint to it in certain lighting. It is called "All Hail The Queen" by Butter London and was applied in two coats. It is a very nice color but, leans for me more towards something I would wear to work and not out to play.

Here are a few images of what it looks like... Please feel free to comment and subscribe to updates.

Wear Something Spar-Kylie over JulieG

I decided that JulieG needed some bling so I added "Wear Something Spar-Kylie" by "Nicole by OPI" and I think it made it look much better even though the photos do not do justice. Application was a breeze & removal wasn't so bad either. Let me know what you think.

If there is anything else you'd like to see up please don't hesitate to ask.

JulieG by Jesse's Girl

This is JulieG which is a color by Jesse's Girl. It is a pinkish salmon color & looks nice with my complexion. I had a really hard time applying this one... It was way too goopy & thick. I added 5 drops of nail polish thinner, gave it a real good shake & still the same results. After the mess this is what I came out with.

Stunning Ares Over Black

In this manicure I decided to use black as a base color. Any black will do. I used Rimmel. I then applied Ares by HITS over top using one coat, which is a Red holographic polish. I think this is absolutely stunning! Feel free to comment below telling me what you think. Also if there is anything in particular you'd like to see up please don't hesitate to ask!

Revlon's Sparkling Cafe Pink

In this manicure I used one coat of "Cafe Pink" by Revlon which was not easy to work with... very streaky while wet. I am still looking for a light pink that does not streak while applying. I applied 2 generous coats & topped it off with "Sparkling" also by Revlon using 1 nice coat but, for the thumbs because they are larger in size they got two coats to make glitter appear well distributed between the nails. I finished it off with Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat. The only reason I used Sparkling to begin with is because for some odd reason I don't think my skin tone looks good with this shade of pink but, after applying the glitter it looked much better.

With this polish I took what was left in the existing bottle & added some other colors & some spectraflair to give a special look although I do need to add a bit more spectraflair for my likings. Let me know what you think.

Evergreen by Icing

Today I am sporting a dark green glitter polish that is also a jelly. It is called "Evergreen" by Icing. I used two coats... It wasn't that bad to apply... as it has a nice size brush but, if you apply to much it can slide creating higher points on the nail therefore attention to detail and a lite hand is helpful. Let me know what you think.

Rain Of Flowers by MAC

My very first MAC polish. I was so excited I had to paint them right away. This polish is blue with purple undertones. It has tiny blue & purple glitter in it. It's called "Rain of Flowers" & was opaque in two coats but, I felt compelled to apply another coat even though it was not needed. The brush size is average but, I do wish it was nice n thick. I didn't think the polish was as glossy as it should have been. I tried correcting it by adding a top coat but, it didn't help enough. I do like the color. When it is dry on the nails it appears to be a blue but, when u remove it the cotton ball ends up purple.
I purchased this polish from MAC.
